Item type:Publication, ARLOS: Adaptive Forecasting and Risk-Calibrated Load Operation in Distribution Substations Under Distribution ShiftForecast accuracy alone is an incomplete proxy for operational value when load distributions change. This paper presents ARLOS, an auditable forecast–uncertainty–decision framework that combines static and adaptive XGBoost forecasts, rolling performance monitoring, residual-bootstrap uncertainty, and explicit fixed-margin, quantile, and risk-target operating rules. The evaluation uses 2021 for ex ante training and capacity-proxy definition and 2022–2023 for strictly sequential testing on two Ecuadorian distribution substations under a measured baseline, smooth growth, and intraday structural shift. Under the four shifted station–scenario cases, adaptive fixed-margin operation reduced the weighted operational objective by 24.8–46.0% relative to the static fixed-margin baseline; baseline-regime changes ranged from (Formula presented.) to 11.2%, showing that adaptation is valuable primarily when mismatch is present rather than universally. A (Formula presented.) ablation further shows that adaptation and uncertainty are distinct, non-additive sources of operational value: aggregate normalized cost changes from 0.987 for static/fixed operation to 0.650 for adaptive/fixed, 0.515 for static/quantile, and 0.546 for adaptive/quantile. Realized one-sided exceedance, computed from observed load rather than from the bootstrap sample itself, remains within 0.0039–0.0111 of the target across the controlled cases, while nominal 10–90% interval coverage ranges from 78.0% to 78.6%. A nine-substation deployment check corroborates the calibration and identifies a measured drift episode in which adaptation limits, but does not eliminate, forecast degradation. The results support ARLOS as a transparent framework for studying how adaptation and uncertainty propagate into operational consequences under distribution shift.These contributions align with Sustainable Development Goal 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) and Sustainable Development Goal 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure) by supporting more reliable, efficient, and intelligent operation of electricity distribution infrastructure. © 2026 by the authors. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, OBSTETRIC VIOLENCE WITHIN SOCIAL SECURITY, A CASE STUDY OF THE ECUADORIAN CONTEXT(2024); Velasteguí Meléndez, EmilyGender violence is a recently made visible social phenomenon. One of the types of mistreatment of women is obstetric violence; phenomenon that has not been fully understood. This research aims to analyze obstetric violence in light of the Ecuadorian case, through a qualitative methodological approach and techniques that are based on bibliographic, casuistic, normative and doctrinal review. The case to be analyzed reaches the Constitutional Court of Ecuador through a constitutional mechanism called review of sentences. The Constitutional Court of Ecuador rules on binding jurisprudence for the legal system of Ecuador, setting an important precedent at the regional level. The Court appropriately measures this type of mistreatment of women, and also establishes a clear difference between health services and health rights. Pregnant women belong to what the Ecuadorian Constitution calls priority attention groups. The work carefully addresses legal figures that have not been fully developed in the Ecuadorian context.12 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, THE POPULAR AND SOLIDARITY ECONOMY AS A MANAGEMENT REGIME IN COMMUNITY TOURISMCurrently, the Popular and Solidarity Economy has been taking an important role in society, since it reflects the human being as a subject and an end to perform various social activities. This research seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of the Popular and Solidarity Economy regime, instituted in Ecuador, to manage the supply of community tourism in the country. The volume of commercial credit and microcredit placed annually by the entities of the Popular and Solidarity Financial System was used as a control variable for the evolution of the annual number of organizations dedicated to the provision of tourism services under the regime examined. The simple linear regression on this data set was carried out using the R 4.0.5 language in the IDE RStudio 1.4.1106, and yielded the result that both variables behave in a linearly independent manner. This leads to the conclusion that the Popular and Solidarity Economy regime, in order to be effective with respect to the national community tourism offer, would need to be reformed or its implementation strengthened. © 2022, University of Cienfuegos, Carlos Rafael Rodriguez.

Item type:Publication, APPLICABILITY OF THE INTERNATIONAL PROTOCOL ON ECONOMIC, SO-CIAL AND CULTURAL RIGHTS: RIGHT TO EDUCATION IN AFGHANISTAN(2023); Panchi Cerón A.S.The purpose of this research is to analyze the applicability of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, specifically, in the context of the human right to education in Afghanistan, which is one of the rights that make up the catalog of the Covenant. This right has been widely criticized because the rights enshrined in it (second generation rights) are considered by the doctrine as “costly”, “rights of provision” and, because of this nature, the intervention of the State is undoubtedly required to provide them, even in their most basic manifestation. Unlike the first-generation rights found in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the aim is the freedom of individuals and non-interventionism on the part of the State. A descriptive methodology is used with a qualitative approach in the review of documents and the use of theoretical methods such as analytical, synthetic and inductive-deductive. The results show that Afghanistan is one of the countries that has signed and ratified the ESCR Covenant, however, the lack of a complete and equal education system for men and women violates the provisions of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, since it is not only impossible to speak of a secular education, but also of an equal education for both sexes, which brings with it several violations of human rights. © 2023, University of Cienfuegos, Carlos Rafael Rodriguez.

Item type:Publication, The Effectiveness of Animated Videos in Secondary School Students’ Understanding of Molecular Processes: An Experimental Study(2026); ; The use of educational animationsEducational animations, such as those created with PowtoonPowtoon, has established itself as an effective strategy for teaching complex scientific concepts in secondary education. In this study, the objective was to evaluate the effectivenessEffectiveness of these animations in improving students’ comprehension, motivation, and academic performance. The research was conducted with a sample of 26 tenth-grade students from the Josué Educational Unit in Ambato, Ecuador, selected through non-probabilistic sampling. The instructional design was based on the ADDIE model, integrating principles of the STEM approach in the development of the animated videos. To measure the impact of the intervention, a pretest–posttest design was applied, and the data were processed in SPSS v.27 using Student’s T-test for related samples. The results showed statistically significant differences between the pretest and posttest scores (p < 0.05), confirming an improvement in both the understanding of scientific concepts and academic performance. Likewise, an increase in students’ motivation and interest in learning science was observed. In conclusion, educational animationsEducational animations developed with PowtoonPowtoon are an effective teaching strategy for promoting more dynamic and meaningful learning in secondary education. However, their implementation requires teacher training and access to technological resources, factors that may limit their application in certain educational contexts. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2026.9 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
