Real-Time Optimization (RTO) is a widely used tool in the industry to determine optimal operating points, maximizing the economic efficiency of continuous processes. However, optimization convergence failures remain a significant challenge, as the complex interaction between operational variables can prevent the calculation of the best operating condition. To address this limitation, this study proposes the use of machine learning techniques to diagnose the causes leading to RTO non-convergen...

This dissertation in Theater Arts reflects on the creative process for two works that are part of Trilogy of the Tropics, a project developed and realized by Coletivo das Liliths (Collective of Liliths) from 2017 to 2022 and that serves as a space of reencountering the narratives of LGBTQIAPN+ who were strategically silenced in the national context. In this collective effort, I led the creative process and served as director for each work, incorporating applied methodologies in orde...
The discussion about reference \ referencing has a prominent place in Textual Linguistics. Knowing the importance of this subject, we assume the objective of analyzing, among the several significant practices, which are the aspects related to the encapsulating anaphora and the importance of the non verbal elements in the process of construction of textual sense in the genres of charge and advertisement. The corpora of this research are constituted by cartoons authored by the cartoon...
The present work addresses the formation of the field of Black Brazilian Literature from the analysis of the book Criação Crioula Nu Elefante Branco (edited by the Official Press of the State of São Paulo, 1987), as the result of the First Encounter of Black Brazilian Poets and Fictionists in São Paulo in 1985. Understanding the First Encounter as a starting point for the field, we will trace the paths we have traveled until we reached Criação Crioula and everything that has unfol...
The present paper, based on Transdisciplinary and Critical Applied Linguistics uses, as theme, the training program of Portuguese Language educators as their mother language. More specifically, it is to challenge, in general, what the training program of Portuguese Language educators as a mother language in the state of Bahia offers, based on the analysis of the Teacher Training Program GESTAR. Furthermore, it is also debated, based on said program, that the conception of language a...
The intellectual's doing today is a question that generates much discussion due to the new demands of socioeconomic reorganization experienced in the digital era. Some critics have presented considerations about the intellectual performance, according to their respective historical contexts, which will guide the analyzes constructed in this study on the work of the writer Silviano Santiago as an intellectual willing to exercise cultural mediation in his country and America- Latina. ...
INTRODUCTION: Although tuberculosis (TB) is a preventable and curable disease, it remains a serious public health problem, with approximately 10.8 million new cases and 1.25 million deaths in 2023 (15.5 deaths per 100,000 population). It is estimated that one-quarter of the global population is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and between 5% and 15% of these individuals will develop active disease over their lifetime. The World Health Organization (WHO) aims to reduce TB cases by 80%...
The progressive aging process of the Brazilian population has been reflected in the increase in demand for Long-Term Care Institutions for Elderly (LTCI), in order to serve as homes for them. In a context of institutionalization, the way in which the family network is composed and how its role is exercised may undergo changes. This study is configured as a single case study of a qualitative nature, with the objective of constructing knowledge through the empirical study of a case, reflecting ...
The SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19, is responsible for a highly contagious disease that can result in severe symptoms in humans. Various strategies have been proposed to combat COVID-19, with one promising approach being the inhibition of the main protease known as MPro (3CLpro). This protease plays a crucial role in viral replication and is both highly conserved and specific among coronaviruses, making it a key target for developing effective inhibitors. Ricinus communis L., commonl...
Introduction: The Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU), a rupture of the skin of the foot involving at least the epidermis and part of the dermis, resulting from the nervous impairment caused by Diabetic Neuropathy (DN), stands out as an amalgam of pathophysiological, socioeconomic and educational factors. In this context, the identification of feet with sensitivity abnormalities that could develop ulceration, through the 10-gram Monofilament Test (10gMT), is a clinically relevant and cost-effective too...
This thesis is concerned with artistic processes that have been methodologically developed from the perspective of the aesthetics of dialogues, based on findings from practical, procedural experiences and artistic theories constituted in works created between 2018 and 2024. The generating materials were conceived as a creative ecosystem, in which the artist/researcher has as raw material the theoretical elaborations of collaborative art, socially engaged practice and executed works as the gui...
First collection of doctoral theses produced by the MTE FACED UFBA Group together with the PPGE FACED UFBA. The book contains 8 articles in which each researcher who completed their doctoral theses at the MTE Group summarizes the focus of their studies and the main results of their investigations.
Studies on gender stereotypes within the structure of society have been a topic of social movements and academic research since the 19th century, where various doors have been opened through questions about being a man and woman in society, privileges, and lack of opportunities, structures of power and submission. It is interesting to observe that, through the analysis of theater history, it is also possible to see how performing arts have been, since antiquity, a space for modeling beha...

The study is based on the assumption that decisions, the dynamism of festivities, and the conservation processes of the architectures of Candomblé Terreiros, especiall...
Panoramic dental radiographs are highly versatile exams. They can be used to diagnose periodontal bone loss and lesions, cysts, and tumors, as well as to estimate the patient's age and biological sex. Studies that apply deep learning to determine these attributes in panoramic radiographs rely on supervised approaches that require manual annotation of each considered condition. However, manually annotating these radiographs is demanding, as it requires skilled labor and is, consequently, costl...

This Academic Memorial, entitled "Dialogue of Literacies: from mass song to canonical literary text", was developed within the scope of the Professional Master's Program in Letters (PROFLETRAS) and presents a proposal to investigate the phenomenon of mass song as a didactic possibility, aiming at the increase and accessibility of literary reading in the school environment. The proposal is to compose parameters for the formation of critical and autonomous readers of the canonical lit...
