Development of key competences of junior bachelors specialised in the Humanities within the person-oriented educational paradigm

The article describes the peculiarities of implementation of the person-oriented paradigm at an establishment of higher education. It has been established that the person-oriented teaching is based on such an organization of the interaction between the subjects of the teaching / learning process, when the maximum possible conditions for the development of this process participants’ abilities of self-education, self-determination, independence and self-realization in the sphere of professional activity are created. The purpose of the article is to characterize the person-oriented educational paradigm as a major component of the development of the key competences of junior bachelors specialised in the Humanities. The objectives of the study are as follows: to clarify the content of the concepts “person-oriented teaching”, “person-oriented approach"; to formulate conceptual features of the person-oriented education at an establishment of higher education under modern conditions; to specify the content of the process of the development of the key competences of junior bachelors specialised in the Humanities through the prism of the person-oriented approach. To achieve the aim of the study and to solve the designated issues, to check the starting points in the research, a set of methods of theoretical and empirical nature is used: analysis of scientific literature on the research topic; data collection and diagnostics; comparative and prognostic methods. It is summarized that the person-oriented approach is a methodological position in the pedagogical sphere which relies on a system of interconnected concepts and ideas, forms and methods, and allows providing the processes of person’s self-discovery, self-improvement and self-realization, as well as the development of his / her uniqueness and individuality. When using this approach at a higher education institution, the tertiary teacher focuses on the student's personality, making major efforts for his / her development. Thus, according to the new educational paradigm, the education results are not knowledge, skills or abilities. The main education results are competences. The development of competences is now taking place in the context of each student's orientation towards creating his or her own individual educational trajectory. It is summarized that the individual educational trajectory of junior bachelors specialised in the Humanities is a person’s individual way of self-realization in the process of learning, which is manifested in conscious decision-making and choosing the best variants of acting.
Development Of A Career Guidance System In Russia: Topical Problems

Currently, educational system in Russian Federation faces new challenges, the most significant one among which is the issue of developing a well-thought-out multi-level concept of career guidance in education. Career guidance is considered to be a pedagogical task. The authors show that despite the efforts of the state, social institutions, scientific community and separate educational institutions, career guidance system development still encounters a number of difficulties. It is necessary to highlight specific theoretical and practical problems to improve career guidance. On the other hand, an integrated approach to pedagogical problems related to career guidance is necessary for the creation of a unified strategy of the development of various areas of career guidance at all levels of educational system in Russia. The authors emphasize that the underdevelopment of the career guidance system leads to problems at various levels (personal; family, society, state, employment, etc.). It is noted that the problems of career guidance should be dealt with (and mainly are) in line with pedagogical disciplines, while educational standards attribute career guidance to psychological problems. In practice, career guidance should be developed as a prolonged, multi-level system of assistance to students in choosing a career. The key to the development of an effective continuous career guidance system is seen as a break with traditionalism (the use of modern information technologies), stage-by-stage development of career guidance at universities, creation of modern teaching and methodological aids for career guidance.
Aggregating News Reporting Sentiment by Means of Hesitant Linguistic Terms

This paper focuses on analyzing the underlying sentiment of news articles, taken to be factual rather than comprised of opinions. The sentiment of each article towards a specific theme can be expressed in fuzzy linguistic terms and aggregated into a centralized sentiment which can be trended. This allows the interpretation of sentiments without conversion to numerical values. The methodology, as defined, maintains the range of sentiment articulated in each news article. In addition, a measure of consensus is defined for each day as the degree to which the articles published agree in terms of the sentiment presented. A real case example is presented for a controversial event in recent history with the analysis of 82,054 articles over a three day period. The results show that considering linguistic terms obtain compatible values to numerical values, however in a more humanistic expression. In addition, the methodology returns an internal consensus among all the articles written each day for a specific country. Therefore, hesitant linguistic terms can be considered well suited for expressing the tone of articles.
Application of quantum state tomography to experimental analysis of entanglement in quantum optical circuits

This paper describes high-performance optical circuits operating on hyper-entangled quantum states. The concept is based on correlated photon pairs generated in such a way that their polarization, frequency or propagation paths are entangled and can be used to support quantum encryption protocols. Detection and processing of such signals requires hyper-spectral optical circuits capable of responding to non-classical features of light. Processing capabilities of these quantum circuits are straight-forward in theory, but physical implementation can still present a challenge for integrity of the quantum states. In this paper, we address experimental verification of entanglement characteristics at each step of building the quantum optical circuits and present a formal quantitative approach based on the quantum state tomography.

Opportunities and Challenges for Adding Speech to Dialogues with a Council of Coaches

With the ageing of the population, more (chronic) diseases arise, putting ressure on the healthcare system. This requires a shift from treatment towards prevention of age related diseases by enabling the aging generation to stimulate them to take care of their own health and condition. The Council of Coaches project is developing a team of virtual coaches that can help older adults to achieve their health goals. Each coach offers insights and advice based on their expertise. The Council of Coaches enables multiparty interaction between multiple coaches and the users by leading user-coach, but also coach-coach conversations. Currently the Council of Coaches interacts with the coaches by selecting one of several predefined multiple choice options. Although this a robust method to capture user input, it is not ideal for elderly for several reasons, such as physical function loss. Spoken dialogues can offer a better user experience, but also come with many complexities. In this research topics, the state-of-art in this topic is investigated by answering multiple research (sub) questions. An extensive literature research has been conducted to gain knowledge about: Conversational Interfaces, Speech Recognizers, Virtual Coaching Systems and the Council of Coaches. This research topics serves as an approach for my thesis that attempts to answer the main question: To what extent can spoken interaction offer a valuable addition to the multiparty virtual Council of Coaches application?. All gained background knowledge will help with the adaption of the Council of Coach system to support spoken interactions.
Acceptance of New Technologies by Employees in Financial Industry

Banks now are facing strong competition from both technological giants and small fintech startups. Under these conditions, banks also have started to implement disruptive technologies in their day-to-day operations. However, in some cases huge investments in different technological systems do not lead to the increase in company performance due to the resistance of employees. In this chapter, we focus on both internal and external factors that may influence employees’ labor productivity and performance of the whole company. The sample includes 148 employees with education in banking and finance. The model was estimated based on Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). We show that both motivation to use disruptive technologies and digital skills have a strong impact of labor productivity, while both labor productivity and organizational support positively contribute to the improvement of company performance that is based on the usage of new technologies.
Hardware acceleration of video quality metrics

Quality Metrics (QM) provide an objective way to measure perceived video quality. These metrics are very compute intensive and are currently done in software. In this paper, we propose an accelerator that can compute metrics like single scale and multi-scale Structural Similarity Index (SSIM, MS_SSIM) and Visual Information Fidelity (VIF). The proposed accelerator offers an energy efficient solution compared to traditional CPUs. It improves memory bandwidth utilization by computing multiple Quality metrics simultaneously.

An Observational Study of ITS Knowledge-Base Development by Nontechnical Subject-Matter Experts

The project, an observational study of nontechnical subject-matter experts (SMEs) developing a knowledge base for the Learn, Explore, and Practice (LEAP) intelligent tutoring platform, had several goals. Ideally, the existence of such tools enables course developers, instructors, and subject-matter experts to develop and maintain knowledge bases without the support, or with minimal support, of computer scientists in a shorter period of time. In any knowledge-base development effort relying on nontechnical subject-matter experts, it is critical to provide a sufficient training interval before embarking on development, regardless of whether tools are available. The observational study of the LEAP authoring process by nontechnical subject-matter experts points to the absolute necessity of the development of good authoring tools for knowledge-base development. The knowledge-acquisition expert’s role in ITS development is to acquire and encode information obtained from instructional designers, course developers, and subject-matter experts.

An Analysis on the Efficiency of University Start-up Support Programs Using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) Model : Focused on Human Resources, R&amp;D Abilities and Infrastructure

Universities play a significant role in implementing start-up support policies led by the government. This has led to a great number of college student entrepreneurs and a growing interest in starting their own business. However, there are still few promising student entrepreneurs. In order to take the university-based start-up support policies to a higher level, there is a need for in-depth discussion on the input of resources and the output of performance based on the analysis on the efficiency of start-up support programs. This study aims to establish the comprehensive direction to support start-up programs and ensure the successful investment of resources in order to improve the efficiency of the support programs at a national level. This study used data from the 2018 Higher Education in Korea(www.academyinfo.go.kr), and was conducted among 81 universities, with the exception of cases of asymmetric information. The results are as follows: According to the results of analysis on scale efficiency, 10 universities (12.2%) achieved CRS (Constant Returns to Scale), 15 (18.3%) achieved DRS (Decreasing Returns to Scale), and 14 (17.1%) achieved IRS (Increasing Returns to Scale). Geographical locations of universities and the types of establishment had more effect on efficiency than scales. Compared to universities in capital regions and national universities, those in non-capital regions and private universities had higher efficiency in the operation of start-up support programs, thus becoming a good reference. This study has the following implications. First, among the universities included in the sample, 45 universities had DRS lower than 20%, accounting for 54.8% of the sample. This means that a considerable number of universities do not conduct efficient operation of start-up support programs, and need to benchmark the successful operation and programs run by universities that achieved. Second, it should be considered that the scale of outputs relative to inputs may vary depending on the orientation of regional strategic and specialized industries. It will be difficult to expect the same scale of output from conventional manufacturing / production-based start-ups and knowledge-based one-man start-ups, which have drawn attention recently. Therefore, it will be a significant task to allocate and invest the appropriate volume of resources depending on the circumstances of each region and university. Third, a significant number of universities that achieved efficiency were private universities in the start-up policies and programs of those private universities showed rapid year-to-year changes, where many programs were removed or continued based on start-up trends and the direction of government policies.

A malaria digital corpus generated by acquiring blood smear images of infected and non-infected malaria patients and obtaining the result which shows the potential of transfer learning in the field of malaria diagnosis. and further testing on the images taken from mobile using foldscope.
Recognition of the Radar Antenna Scanning Period based on Convolutional Neural Network

Antenna scanning period(ASP) of radar is a crucial parameter in electronic warfare(EW), which is applied to such as radar emitter recognition, the passive localization of hostile radar. All the reported methods about estimating ASP focus on the condition that EW system antenna is stationary, while the estimation of radar ASP is not solved in the condition that EW system antenna scan circularly. In this paper, we address the problem and propose a novel method based on deep learning for ASP recognition in the case that the EW system antenna scan circularly. We design a convolutional neural network(CNN) for recognizing the ASP of radar. Simulation results demonstrate the effectivity and the satisfied recognition accuracy.
Reconfiguration proposal for a speckel pattern panoramic interferometer (SPPI)

In this work, a speckle pattern panoramic interferometer is presented. The original configuration is given by an optical arrangement based on two paraboloid mirrors, which give the interferometric system its panoramic character. The improvement consists in replacing the reference arm of the original interferometer, with an optical fiber that allows to take the reference beam to what we will call the front of the system. This will allow to reduce the necessary space for our proposed optical arrangement. What we are looking for, is a more compact optical arrangement with the ultimate goal of miniaturizing the speckle panoramic interferometric system to detect micro-displacements within cylindrical systems. Experiments results are presented.
EXAMINING THE CONSUMER PROTECTION AND COMPREHENSIVENESS IN E-COMMERCE IN TANZANIA

This paper seeks to assess consumer protection and comprehensiveness in e-commerce in Tanzania. Mixed research method was used to collect data from the study area, including, 210 respondents and 2 key informant interviews. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was applied for quantitative data analysis, while content analysis was adopted for qualitative data. The findings show that the legal framework in Tanzania does not offer tight protection to online consumers exposing them to various online vices. Because of this, majority citizens have opted not to engage in online business due to fear of being negatively affected from online businesses or suppliers. We found acts of fraud, misrepresentation, lack of redress and others to have dominated online business. It is therefore recommended inter alia, that there should be enacted single legislation that provides for consumer rights and protection for different types of consumers and the law should seek also to establish a centralized body dealing with consumer rights and protection.

An FPGA-based implementation of Fourier-Mellin Transform

This paper provides an FPGA-based implementation for Fourier-Mellin transform, proposing a single-chip solution for image registration with rotation, scaling and translation parameters. To achieve high registration accuracy, coordinates of the peak of the cross power spectrum is replaced by coordinates of the center of gravity of a peak-centered window, and a secondary detection is processed based on the results of the coarse registration. This implementation resolves the contradiction between resource utilization and processing speed through parallel processing, local pipelining, and clear pipeline management. Based on hardware-software co-design, this registration system is implemented on Zynq-7000 AP SoC XC7Z020 and achieves 90 fps when processing two grayscale images of size 256 × 256 at a frequency of 200Mhz, meeting speed and accuracy requirements of most real-time processing applications.

Studying geometric phase optical elements with polarimetry

Optical components based on Pancharatman-Berry phase feature a polarization-dependent diffraction that can be used to fabricate lenses and gratings with unique properties. In recent years, the great progress made in the fabrication of the metasurfaces required for these optical components has lowered their cost and has made them widely available. One of the often overlooked properties of optical components based on geometrical phases is that, contrary to dynamical phases, their phase can be measured using a polarimetric technique without need to resorting to interferometry methods. This is possible because the Pancharatnam-Berry phase is not controlled by an optical path difference; it results from a space variant polarization manipulation. In this work we apply Mueller matrix microscopy to measure the geometrical phase of GP lenses and polarization gratings. We show that a single space resolved Mueller matrix measurement with micrometric resolution is enough to obtain a full characterization phase-profile of these GP-based optical components and evaluate their performance.The analysis can be extended to multiple wavelengths to study the chromatic dependence of the optical parameters of the lens or the grating.
