The Book of Artists Pavel and Natalia Martynenko Hand-to-Hand Dance: The Experience of Receptive Aesthetics

A book of an artist is a specific object of art presenting an authorial utterance overcoming the bounds of book-printing, in which either a text or a picture can be present. At the center of attention in the article is the book Rukopashnyi tanets. Istoriya lyubvi i sopernichestva, ob"ektivno otrazhennaya v dokumentakh i skhemakh, gde prichudlivo splelis' dva iskusstva: muzykal'no-khoreograficheskoe i voenno-rukopashnoe [Hand-to-Hand Dance. The Story of Love and Rivalry, Objectively Reflected in Documents and Schemes, in which Two Arts Have Fancifully Entwined: The Musical-Choreographic and the Hand-to-Hand-Military] (2010) created by Russian artists Pavel and Natalia Martynenko, which is examined in the angle of receptive aesthetics. The edition includes archival documents, photographs, drawings and schemes. On the basis of studies of this material, the author of the article interprets the artistic conception of the book in a philosophical sense. In the present art-object the notion is realized according to which life is a dance. Meanwhile, the process of the self-development of a personality involved in such a life appears in a ceaseless struggle with itself, as well as with the circumstances of life, which makes it possible to understand the title of the composition better. The book is begun and completed by music pages copied by hand by an anonymous music lover in the early 20th century. Such an artistic solution leads to the understanding of music by the ancient Greek sages. In particular, for the Pythagoreans music demonstrated itself as a sort of “Ariadne’s thread,” which determined the path towards the mysteries of existence, initiating the human being into universal harmony and thereby providing the opportunity of acting in unison with cosmic vibrations. Appealing to the opinion of Boris Asafiev, who asserted that gesture, along with mimic and dance, serves as a reference point in the creation of musical speech, the author arrives at the conclusion that the protagonists who become alive on the pages of the artist’s book, are led through life by music.

Detecting Difficult Japanese Characters using Eye-tracking from Multi-row Long Text

This study aimed to develop a method for detecting difficult-to-read characters by tracking the gazes of personal computer (PC) users. A method for detecting English words that are difficult to read was proposed previously. However, this method required a dedicated user interface because the accuracy of the eye tracker is low (eye-tracking errors). In actual PC work, the range of use of a dedicated user interface is limited, and efficient work may be hindered. In this study, we propose a character detection method with eye-tracking error correction using projective transformation. The usefulness of the proposed method was examined based on the detection accuracy. The results showed that the proposed method was effective in detecting difficult-to-read characters in F-measure > 0.58 in the first row of the text. Moreover, the usefulness of the proposed method was demonstrated for nine rows or shorter texts compared with no-correction eye-tracking data.
Creation of security educational materials targeting robot control

In this study, I will create security educational materials targeting robot control. It's because robot control is easy to interest mechanical and electrical engineering students and engineers, as well as junior high and high school students with no expertise in the field. Therefore, I created a virtual environment that mimics an actual robot control environment. I will launch attacks against the virtual environment and create educational materials based on what I learn. In this study, a pseudo-environment was constructed with "RoverC.Pro", a robot controllable by ROS(Robot Operating System). ROS built on Docker. The program on the RoverC.Pro side is created by Arduino and performs simple operations depending on what it receives. The ROS uses "Topic" as its communication method. In ROS, the contents of communications are exchanged unencrypted. I took advantage of this to launch a man-in-the-middle attack.Since we were able to confirm that this attack could tamper with the contents of communications and threaten to halt communications, this paper describes what we did leading up to the creation of the educational material.

A Study on the Problems and Countermeasures of the Personal Disclosure System of Sex Offenders

The personal disclosure system for sex offenders is intended to send a warning message to local residents to be careful not to be harmed because ex-sex offenders live around them. However, the current personal information disclosure system is not becoming a current photographic information, and the unclear residence and actual residence have resulted in unknown consequences even though actual sex offenders live around them. In addition, organizations that handle personal information disclosure have not been able to proceed smoothly due to diversification such as the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, and the National Police Agency. The purpose of this study is to find countermeasures against these problems.&#x0D; The scope of the study is to examine the theoretical research of the personal disclosure system based on related laws and research papers, and to find practical countermeasures by deriving various problems through Internet articles, domestic and international research papers, and research reports.&#x0D; As a result of the study, the disclosure of sex offenders needs to be divided into low-risk and high-risk groups, and intelligent CCTV should be installed and managed in front of the subject's house to inconsistency between residential and actual residence and current photo information. Personal information disclosure management shall be unified into one institution so that the work can be carried out smoothly. When the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family notifies parents or institutions with children and adolescents of the registration of sex crimes, it should take a video of the body or walking scene in addition to the personal information of the sex offender and send the video information so that children and adolescents can see it. Only in this way will children and adolescents be able to clearly recognize that they are sex offenders when they meet a person subject to personal information disclosure on the street.

The Ideals and Realities of Institutional Research as Perceived by University Officials

This study aims to explore the ideals and current status of institutional research. To this end, a qualitative case study was conducted on professors who have experience as leaders in organizations related to educational outcomes in four-year private universities. The results of the study revealed that the ideal function of institutional research is to perform the role management advisory, whereas the reality is limited to external exhibition purposes. In terms of expertise, the ideal presentation involves providing evidence-based decision-making through data integration management and analysis, but it is challenging to have the right amount of access to the data due to departmental barriers. Regarding the positioning of organizations related to institutional research, it is essential to be placed close with decision-making entities, however, they are currently observed to remain in peripheral. Based on the results of this study, suggestions were made for the tasks that need to be prioritized for the successful establishment of institutional research in the future.
