Received Apr 13, 2022 Revised May 22, 2022 Accepted Jun 20, 2022 The aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the 15item smartphone addiction proneness scale (SAPS) among a sample of Malaysian adolescents. The gathered data were subjected to exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. There were 922 secondary school students involved in this study. The exploratory factor analysis extracted a threefactor solution for SAPS. These factors were named disturbance of adaptive functions, withdrawal and tolerance. Results from confirmatory factor analysis also indicated that the three-factor structure fits well with the data. The internal consistency of the scale was found to be good. The positive and moderately strong correlation between SAPS and three widely adopted criterion variables (depression, loneliness and boredom proneness) supported the concurrent validity of SAPS. The results of this study showed that the SAPS is a reliable and valid instrument for identifying problematic smartphone use among Malaysian adolescents.

Factors affecting the intention to use e-Government services

Nowadays, more and more people are using Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in order to accommodate their daily needs. E-Government (e-Gov) adopts these technologies in an effort to provide prompt and secure services to citizens. However, the intention to use eGovernment services has not yet been fully examined by the international literature. The present research attempts to bridge this gap, by examining the factors affecting citizens’ intention to use e-Government services. In that direction, a conceptual framework (research model), based on an extensive review of the relevant literature, has been developed. The proposed conceptual framework has been empirically tested using a newly-developed structured questionnaire. Data were collected from a sample of 547 Greek citizens. The reliability and the validity of the questionnaire have been thoroughly examined, while the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique has been used to analyze the data. Results indicate that perceived usefulness is the most important determinant of the intention to use e-Government services. Other important factors are perceived trust, internet experience, peer influence, computer self-efficacy and perceived risk.

The growing popularity of micro-blogs has drawn an increasing amount of attention from users keen to expand friendship, facilitate information sharing and information seeking. Given the extensive use of micro-blog services, there is a pressing need to understand users’ behavioral intentions in micro-blog services. Although there are some studies exploring the factors explaining micro-blog users’ acceptance, none of research has been reported from both of the technological characteristics and network effects of micro-blog services. This study extended motivational model with socio-technical approach as a theoretical framework to examine the roles of technological factors and network effect factors in determining micro-blog users’ behavioral intentions. This study suggests that interactivity, convenience, accessibility, network size, existing social contacts, performance expectancy, sense of belonging and hedonic expectancy together provide a strong explanation for micro-blog use intention. The results of this study provide directions for system administrators and service providers to achieve higher levels of micro-blog usage by developing multi-faceted strategies.
Few-shot Font Style Transfer between Different Languages Supplementary Material

In this supplementary material, we first introduce the detailed network structure and some hyperparameter settings. We also provide additional visual comparison results between our model and EMD [4], and DFS [5]. Finally, we illustrate some examples of the font dataset that we constructed. 1. Network Structure In this section, we introduce detailed hyperparameter settings and some network structures that are not explained before. Our basic setup follows Pix2Pix [2]. Both GeneratorG, Content DiscriminatorDcontent, and Style DiscriminatorDstyle are initialized with Normal Initialization. We train our model 20 epochs by using Adam optimizer [3] with β1 = 0.5, β2 = 0.999, and learning rate lr = 0.0002 in the first 10 epochs and an linear decay in the remaining 10 epochs. Note that for both G, Dcontent, and Dstyle, we use the same settings. Empirically, we set batch size to 256. Besides, unlike previous work [1] employed dropout to their generator to obtain randomness. Here, we don’t use dropout because we have observed in experiments that this behavior will reduce the generative ability of the model. Instead, we add some slight random noise to the style code zs. In addition, we illustrate the detailed network structure of content encoder, decoder, and discriminators in Figure 1. 2. Visual Comparison We illustrate the additional results in Figure 2. For each font, we randomly select 6 generated images. Experimental results show our method outperforms the other two methods [4, 5] on both printing fonts and handwritten fonts.
Bottom-Up and Top-Down Object Detection using Primal Sketch Features and Graphical Models

A combination of techniques that is becoming increasingly popular is the construction of part-based object representations using the outputs of interest-point detectors. Our contributions in this paper are twofold: first, we propose a primal-sketch-based set of image tokens that are used for object representation and detection. Second, top-down information is introduced based on an efficient method for the evaluation of the likelihood of hypothesized part locations. This allows us to use graphical model techniques to complement bottom-up detection, by proposing and finding the parts of the object that were missed by the front-end feature detection stage. Detection results for four object categories validate the merits of this joint top-down and bottom-up approach.
EXPLORATION RESULTS, HYDROCARBON POTENTIAL AND FUTURE STRATEGIES FOR THE NORTHERN GALILEE BASIN

Exploration activity in the northern Galilee Basin has been sporadic and is still at an immature stage. Recent geological investigations by the Queensland Department of Resource Industries have brought about a better understanding of the geological setting and stratigraphic evolution of the basin. These investigations also identified key source and reservoir units, determined maturation trends and delineated areas with hydrocarbon potential. The geological results indicate that the Aramac Coal Measures and Betts Creek beds contain the most favourable source and reservoir rocks. Thermal modelling of vitrinite reflectance data suggests that various parts of the basin reached maturity for hydrocarbon generation at different times. Integration of the geological results and thermal modelling has enabled exploration concepts to be developed for the basin. Application of these concepts has highlighted areas along the western margin of the Koburra Trough and eastern Maneroo Platform, and areas adjacent to the Cork Fault and the Wetherby Structure in the Lovelle Depression that warrant further exploration.
The Next M~6 Event in Parkfield Implied by a Physical Model Linking Interseismic, Coseismic, and Postseismic Phase

Determination of the constitutive frictional parameters is crucial for describing the dynamic behaviors of natural faults. In this study, we explore the along‐strike variation in fault friction along the San Andreas Fault in Parkfield, where characteristic M6 earthquakes occur nearly every 25 years. Using displacement data measured over decades encompassing the interseismic, coseismic, and postseismic phase of the 2004 M6 event, which involve inherent fault rheological responses to tectonic loading, we construct a physical model based on the rate‐dependent friction law to describe the fault slip and stress evolution. Our modeled friction rate parameter is consistent with available laboratory measurements using fault cores collected from the San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth. Based on the physical model linking interseismic, coseismic, and postseismic phase, we predict that the 25‐year slip deficit following the 2004 M6 earthquake will predominantly accumulate in the area to the south of the 2004 event hypocenter, with an energy equivalent to a M6.0 event. Together with the slip deficit accumulated over the 25 years prior to the 2004 event that was unreleased by this event, the total slip deficit amounts to a moment magnitude of M6.35 ± 0.11, suggesting the upper limit of the seismic release level until 2029. The proposed model (1) involves only two free quantities (the friction rate parameter and velocity coefficient used to determine the effective normal stress); (2) is well constrained by available interseismic, coseismic, and postseismic displacement data; and (3) highlights along‐strike variations in the fault friction.

Seismic constraints on magma evolution beneath Mount Baekdu (Changbai) volcano from transdimensional Bayesian inversion of ambient noise data

The magmatic process of continental intraplate volcanism (CIV) is difficult to understand due to heterogeneous interactions with the crust and the lithospheric upper mantle. Mount Baekdu (Changbai) volcano (MBV) is one of the prominent CIVs in northeast Asia that has shown a complex history of eruptions and associated magmatic structures. In addition, the relationship between the crustal magmatic structures and upper mantle phenomena are enigmatic due to the lack of consistent seismic constraints for the lithospheric structure. To enhance comprehensive understanding of the MBV magma evolution, we image the lithospheric structure beneath the MBV and surrounding regions using ambient noise data and the following two approaches: (1) multiple measures of ambient noise dispersion are acquired through different methods and (2) a transdimensional Bayesian inversion method is utilized to obtain unbiased results in joint analysis of the multiple data sets. The estimated Earth structure shows a thick crust (~40 km) and a crustal anomaly with relatively high S wave velocity in the depth range 20–40 km. This type of structure extends to ~100 km north from the MBV and is accompanied by the shallow and rapid S wave velocity decrease beneath the mantle lid (~80 km). Through a comparison with previous P wave models, we interpret this structure as a consequence of compositional partitioning by mafic underplating and overlying cooled felsic layers as a result of fractional crystalization.
New trends in microelectronics: Towards an ultimate memory concept

Memory is an indispensible component of any modern integrated circuit. While MOSFET scaling has advanced tremendously, traditional DRAM cell scaling is hampered by the presence of a capacitor which is difficult to reduce in size. Recently, an interesting concept of a DRAM memory cell based on a transistor alone was introduced. The ultimate advantage of this new concept is that it does not require a capacitor, and, in contrast to traditional 1T/1C DRAM cells, it represents a 1T/0C cell named Z(for zero)-RAM. The advanced Z-RAM bitcells built on a multiple-gate MOSFET (MuGFET) utilizes the bipolar transistor usually considered as parasitic [1]. The advantage is that the current flows through the body of the structure. The majority carriers are generated by impact ionization and stored under the gates. The charge stored opens the bipolar transistor guaranteeing high current (state 1). The stored charge can be flashed out by applying the voltage pulse to the gates returning the bipolar transistor into the low current state 0. The stored charge for the bipolar transistor in the high current and low current states is shown in Fig.1. The results [2] of current calculations as function of the gate voltage for a double-gate structure with 10nm thin body are shown in Fig.2. In a forward scan direction of the gate voltage, the current stays low until a certain critical value is reached. After that the source-drain current rapidly increases by several orders of magnitude. In a reverse gate voltage scan, the current first slowly decreases, however, due to the charge stored under the gates, the relatively large current value is maintained down to the negative gate voltages, where it abruptly decreases by several orders of magnitude completing the hysteresis loop [2]. The use of vertical gate-all around transistors extends the Z-RAM roadmap to future generations. One disadvantage of the Z-RAM cell is the relatively high operating voltage needed to ignite impact ionization. To reduce the operating voltage, a new concept of a 1T/0C cell was recently proposed [3].
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Re: Cottliar et al.: High Frequencies of Telomeric Associations, Chromosome Aberrations, and Sister Chromatid Exchanges in Ulcerative Colitis

TO THE EDITOR: We read with interest the article by Cottliaret al. in the September 2000 issue (1). In their study, the authors measured telomeric associations (TAs) in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) of ulcerative colitis patients as a parameter to evaluate chromosome instability. They contend that the mechanism that causes the TAs is not known, but cite work showing shortening of telomeres in ulcerative colitis as a potential mechanism (2). There is evidence from the literature (3) that telomerase activity is decreased in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This and other evidence (4) showing decreased capacity for DNA repair in IBD patients may prove to be the mechanism for TAs. In contrast to the above data showing decreased telomerase activity in IBD patients, increased telomerase activity is seen in a variety of cancers, including colon cancer (5). However, there is also a recent report showing that there may not be a direct relationship between colorectal cancer telomere length and telomerase activity (6), suggesting that this relationship may be quite complex. Our work on telomerase in colonic effluent has confirmed that telomerase activity is decreased in IBD (7). In contrast, our work in a spontaneous animal model of colitis and colorectal cancer, the cotton-top tamarin, which has an extremely high incidence of colorectal cancer following chronic colitis, shows higher telomerase activity in the effluent samples of tamarins as compared to humans with IBD. This suggests that telomerase activity may be a marker of colorectal cancer risk in the tamarin, but this is unlikely to be the case in humans, who have a relatively lower incidence of colorectal disease (8). In addition, the concept of using PBLs for analysis of chromosomal instability should be re-examined. It is possible that chromosomal aberrations in PBLs may not represent similar damage in the target organ tissue because lymphocytes, primarily involved in the immunological reaction of IBD, could be damaged in the inflammatory process, resulting in chromosomal instability that may not be related to the increased colon cancer risk seen in ulcerative colitis. This has been shown to be the case with the PBLs of patients with Crohn’s disease demonstrated to have chromosomal aberrations (9). Furthermore, it has been reported that chromosomal damage to PBLs may result from in vitro exposure to agents commonly used in the treatment of IBD (10). We therefore believe that the demonstration of chromosomal aberrations in the PBLs of IBD patients is a nonspecific epiphenomenon and that more specific tests are needed to demonstrate a causal association between chromosomal damage in PBLs and cancer risk in this scenario.
A symbolic/subsymbolic interface protocol for cognitive modeling: Supplementary Material

In this supplement to the article ‘A symbolic/subsymbolic interface protocol for cognitive modeling’, we describe the details of a neural network model of the Tower of London task. A similar model has been shown to reproduce the behavior of normal human subjects and also patients with prefrontal brain damage (Polk et al., 2002) and Parkinson’s disease (Simen et al., 2004). We discuss in the second section a technique for parameterizing dynamical systems that proved essential to the construction of this model. 1. Problem-space search by a neural production system In this section, we apply the principles of logic- and architecture-level design that we have presented in previous sections to construct a working model of brain circuits essential for step-by-step problem solving. We apply this to a task that we have previously modeled with a hybrid neural/symbolic model to explain problem-solving impairments by patients with prefrontal brain damage (Polk et al., 2002). The task is the Tower of London task (Shallice, 1982), a puzzle based on the Tower of Hanoi disk-stacking puzzle that was developed for use with potentially brain-damaged subjects. It requires a starting configuration of colored balls on pegs to be transformed into a goal configuration in as few moves as possible (see the bottom of Fig. 1 for a representative problem). In modeling this task, we confront many of the same di cult choices about how to represent knowledge in a model — and about how much knowledge to build into it — that symbolic modelers face in cognitive psychology, and that programmers of expert systems face in artificial intelligence (AI). Such limits fundamentally shape the predictions of any problem-solving model that acquires most of its knowledge from a programmer, rather than from a training process. (Unfortunately, programming a significant amount of knowledge into models of complex cognition is currently unavoidable, both because we do not have a well-understood learning algorithm to acquire the types of model components and connections we use, and because the amount of simulation necessary to train up the relevant task representations under a plausible algorithm would likely pose an insurmountable barrier to modeling complex cognition in practice.)
Formal Meta-Analysis of Hypoxic Gene Expression Profiles Reveals a Universal Gene Signature

Integrating transcriptional profiles results in identifying gene expression signatures that are more robust than those obtained for individual datasets. However, a direct comparison of datasets derived from heterogeneous experimental conditions is problematic, hence their integration requires applying of specific meta-analysis techniques. The transcriptional response to hypoxia has been the focus of intense research due to its central role in tissue homeostasis and prevalent diseases. Accordingly, many studies have determined the gene expression profile of hypoxic cells. Yet, despite this wealth of information, little effort has been made to integrate these datasets to produce a robust hypoxic signature. We applied a formal meta-analysis procedure to datasets comprising 430 RNA-seq samples from 43 individual studies including 34 different cell types, to derive a pooled estimate of the effect of hypoxia on gene expression in human cell lines grown ingin vitro. This approach revealed that a large proportion of the transcriptome is significantly regulated by hypoxia (8556 out of 20,888 genes identified across studies). However, only a small fraction of the differentially expressed genes (1265 genes, 15%) show an effect size that, according to comparisons to gene pathways known to be regulated by hypoxia, is likely to be biologically relevant. By focusing on genes ubiquitously expressed, we identified a signature of 291 genes robustly and consistently regulated by hypoxia. Overall, we have developed a robust gene signature that characterizes the transcriptomic response of human cell lines exposed to hypoxia in vitro by applying a formal meta-analysis to gene expression profiles.
