Point-of-interest recommendation in location-based social networks

The focus of point-of-interest recommendation techniques is to suggest a venue to a given user that would match the users’ interests and is likely to be adopted by the user. Given the multitude of the available venues and the sparsity of user check-ins, the problem of recommending venues has shown to be a difficult task. Existing literature has already explored various types of features such as geographical distribution, social structure and temporal behavioral patterns to make a recommendation. In this thesis, we show how a comprehensive set of user and venue related information can be methodically incorporated into a heterogeneous graph representation based on which the problem of venue recommendation can be efficiently formulated as an instance of the heterogeneous link prediction problem on the graph and we propose a new set of features derived based on the neural embeddings of venues and users. We additionally show how the neural embeddings for users and venues can be jointly learnt based on the prior check-in sequence of users and then be used to define a set of new features. We have also used a new proposed heterogeneous graph similarity search framework to find similarity between users and venues using our graph. These features are integrated into a feature-based matrix factorization model. Our experiments show that the features defined over the user and venue embeddings are effective for venue recommendation and outperform existing state of the art methods.

System End-User Actions as aThreat to Information System Security

Information system security is of paramount importance to every institution that deals with digital information. Nowadays, efforts to address cybersecurity issues are mostly software or hardware-oriented. However, the most common types of cybersecurity breaches happen as a result of unintentional human errors also known as end user actions. Thus, this study aimed to identify the end-user errors and the resulting vulnerabilities that could affect the system security requirements, the CIA triad of information assets. The study further presents state-of-the-art countermeasures and intellectual ideas on how entities can protect themselves from advent events. Adopted is a mixed-method research approach to inform the study. A closed-ended questionnaire and semi-structured interviews were used as data collection tools. The findings of this study revealed that system end user errors remain the biggest threat to information systems security. Indeed errors make information systems vulnerable to certain cybersecurity attacks and when exploited puts legitimate users at risk.
Kolaborasi Antar Stakeholders Dalam Manajemen Bencana Tanah Longsor Di Kota Semarang

This study aims to analyze the collaboration process between stakeholders in landslide disaster management in Gajahmungkur District, Semarang City. Collaboration between stakeholders aims to build commitment, understanding, and responsibility in increasing the effectiveness of disaster management which is analyzed through the concept of collaborative governance by Ansell &amp; Gash (2007). Based on a descriptive qualitative research approach, this research was conducted in the city of Semarang, precisely in the district of Gajahmungkur Kecamatan. Data collection was carried out by interview and documentation techniques. Data analysis is based on four indicators of collaborative governance including: initial conditions, institutional design, facilitative leadership, to the collaborative process. The results of this study indicate that there are three stakeholders involved in the collaboration, namely local government, community groups, and also the private sector, however, in the process the coordination carried out by the three stakeholders is not effective enough, thus hindering disaster management activities. As a result of this lack of coordination, the landslide disaster in Semarang City has not been handled properly. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the collaborative process carried out in landslide disaster management in Semarang City has not run optimally due to lack of coordination and lack of participation from other stakeholders outside the government sector, causing landslides to still occur frequently.
A Privacy-Masking Learning Algorithm for Online Distributed Optimization over Time-Varying Unbalanced Digraphs

This paper investigates a constrained distributed optimization problem enabled by differential privacy where the underlying network is time-changing with unbalanced digraphs. To solve such a problem, we first propose a differentially private online distributed algorithm by injecting adaptively adjustable Laplace noises. The proposed algorithm can not only protect the privacy of participants without compromising a trusted third party, but also be implemented on more general time-varying unbalanced digraphs. Under mild conditions, we then show that the proposed algorithm can achieve a sublinear expected bound of regret for general local convex objective functions. The result shows that there is a trade-off between the optimization accuracy and privacy level. Finally, numerical simulations are conducted to validate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.
Exploration of Subject Representation and Support of Linked Data in Recently Created Library Metadata: Examination of Most Widely Held WorldCat Bibliographic Records

This paper presents results of the examination of subject representation in the most recently created library metadata records. The bibliographic records were collected from the WorldCat global database. The records were created in 2020 according to the latest version of Resource Description and Access (RDA) and MARC 21Format for Bibliographic Data. A purposive sample of the records with the widest reach—as expressed in the highest number of holdings and the highest level of editing made by multiple institutions—was selected for in-depth content analysis. The level and patterns of application were analyzed for all subject representation data elements (record fields and subfields), specifically for those that were Linked-Data-enabling. The study examined the level and patterns of application of subject controlled vocabularies. Co-occurrences between various subject representation data elements and between subject controlled vocabularies within the records were explored.
Analysis of Flow Characteristics and Paracetamol Tablet Hardness Using 2D Double Mixer of Design Drum Type with Rotation and Mixing Time Variations

One of the tablet manufacturing processes using the wet granulation method is the process of mixing the active ingredient granules, fillers, binders and pelicans. The parameters of the mixing process are important to study because they will affect the physical properties of the tablet. This study studied the effect of the variable duration and the size of the mixing cycle on the physical properties of paracetamol tablets using a 2D double mixer. The results of the analysis and testing showed that the variation of mixing time and the size of the rotation had a significant effect on the flow properties of the granules and the hardness of the tablets. In addition, the optimal parameter results to obtain optimal tablet hardness occurred at 15 minutes of mixing process and 50 rpm of rotation.
Categorization of Event Clusters from Twitter Using Term Weighting Schemes

A real-world event is commonly represented on Twitter as a collection of repetitive and noisy text messages posted by different users. Term weighting is a popular pre-processing step for text classification, especially when the size of the dataset is limited. In this paper, we propose a new term weighting scheme and a modification to an existing one and compare them with many state-of-the-art methods using three popular classifiers. We create a labelled Twitter dataset of events for exhaustive cross-validation experiments and use another Twitter event dataset for cross-corpus tests. The proposed schemes are among the best performers in many experiments, with the proposed modification significantly improving the performance of the original scheme. We create two majority voting based classifiers that further enhance the F1-scores of the best individual schemes.
UNLEASHING GENDER EQUALITY AND ACCESS TO KNOWLEDGE AMONG SMALLHOLDER FARMERS: RETHINKING IMPLICATION TO POVERTY REDUCTIONS

Purpose: The aim of the study is to examine gender equality in accessing knowledge among smallholder farmers with a focus on poverty reductions strategies. &#x0D; Methodology: This paper draws from the theoretical and empirical literature review of studies on smallholder farmers on access to agricultural knowledge through collection of secondary data and reviewing information that has been gathered from various studies and reports in research and academic institutions, as well as from internet sources in and outside Tanzania.&#x0D; Findings: The study found the missing link in poverty reduction strategies, thus there is a need to strengthen the strategies and the agriculture policy. The study also, found that women have less access to agricultural knowledge than men due to cultural barriers, low level of literacy, poverty, and lack of ownership of resources such as land and income for sustainability and security.&#x0D; Unique contribution to theory and policy/recommendation): The focus and outcomes regarding gender equality in relation to access to agricultural information suggests the need for more refined and socioeconomic models that cuts across gender and other social dimension beyond other factors of culture, education etc. This study recommends that there is a need to rethink of the implications to poverty reduction strategies during preparation of the strategies in order to increase accessibility of knowledge among smallholder farmers, especially women. Hence, this study will contribute to theory and policy to enable smallholder farmers to increase productivity and income especially to women.

Pedagogy of gamification

The article deals with the issues of didactic support of students ‘ play activities that contribute to improving the effectiveness of education. Gamification is exactly the tool that ensures the motivated involvement of students in the cognitive sphere, and social, physical and communicative activity is the applied result of the introduction of this tool into the structure of both general and pedagogical education. The purpose of this article is to present the methodological grounds for the use of the game both in the organization of children’s recreation and in the didactic provision of pedagogical education that can apply gamification for pedagogical purposes. The issues raised are especially relevant in the conditions of excessive fascination of teenagers with all kinds of computer games, which causes concern for their “digital dementia”, since it is accompanied by the adoption of already programmed scenarios. Digital autism also causes alertness, which leads to physical inactivity and other somatic problems. Practice insistently requires researchers to put the modern socio-cultural phenomenon, which is gamification, at the service of modern education with an appropriate pedagogical justification.

Purpose: The purpose of the article is to analyse economic and legal conditions, educational cooperation, and attractiveness of Senegalese market for Polish entrepreneurs. The author tries to assess whether the potential that lies dormant in this African country is sufficiently used by Polish entrepreneurs. He identifies problems which may affect Polish expansion into this stable and rapidly growing market. Design/Methodology/Approach: Observational method complemented by an intuitive method with the use of arguments to general statements drawn from personal experience. Findings: The presented economic, legal, and political conditions do not confirm that Senegal is not an attractive country to carry out investment projects by Polish entrepreneurs and to conduct bilateral trade transactions. The huge potential of Senegal has been recognized for many decades by European and world economic powers. Practical Implications: Senegal is among the African countries with one of the lowest capital risk premiums. The ease of doing business index developed for Senegal is another argument that certainly should not discourage potential entrepreneurs from doing business in the country. Senegal's membership in numerous international organizations indicates its openness to broad economic cooperation. Originality/value: Thanks to favorable economic, legal, and political conditions, as well as long-term educational cooperation, Senegal may be an attractive country for Polish entrepreneurs to implement investment projects and bilateral trade transactions and obtaining foreign capital for their implementation does not have to be difficult.

The Online Learning Strategies: A Case Study On English Teachers in East Nusa Tenggara Province-Indonesia

During the covid 19 pandemic, online learning, and its terms are not strange things in East Nusa Tenggara. The establishment of Learning from home was started from March to June 2020 to prevent the spread of Covid-19. This research is a case study of eleven English teachers who serve in certain areas around East Nusa Tenggara; five teachers of Senior High School/Vocational School, five teachers of Junior High School, and one Elementary School teacher. Its purpose was to describe the methods in the English teaching-learning process in a pandemic situation. The data of this descriptive study were obtained through WhatsApp non-facial interviews and analyzed by reducing and categorizing similar results. The results showed that the teachers applied two methods, both offline and online. From March to June 2020, the teachers managed their classes in the online process by using some applications. Whereas, in the Uneven Semester 2020-2021, the safe areas return to face-to-face learning in limited learning duration. The most prominent obstacle in online learning was the limitation of gadgets since the students did not have adequate tools. Financially, parents' income has decreased for they could not meet the needs of internet data packages. Students who returned to their hometown also experienced problems regarding network services. These conditions cause more obstacles to teachers in managing online classes. Therefore, teachers implemented several strategies to solve these obstacles by creating a WhatsApp group or arranging them into small groups based on their locations and there were students with smartphones to browse for materials or send the assignments. In addition, students were allowed to consult and collect the assignments at school based on scheduled agreements. The situation continues to Even Semester 2020-2021 and gradually turned to limited face-to-face meetings at school in the Uneven Semester 2021-2022.
Critical Study of Sociocultural Practice in Cattle Trading Arena

In the cattle trading arena, it is suspected that there is a peculiarity of registers as a style and rhetorical discourse of disguised communication as a form of tactics, which is not in line between linguistic aspects and sociocultural behavior. Register as a rhetorical style of communication is built, of course not without reason, but there is motivation, intention, and achievement of communication goals. This paper attempts to reveal: the form of registers in the rhetoric of communication in the cattle trading arena, the function of the register as communication rhetoric in the cattle trading arena, the symbolic meaning of registers in the rhetorical style and discourse of sociocultural practice in the cattle trading arena. A qualitative descriptive method is used to describe substantially the aspects of the meaning of the data with an in-depth analysis related to the subject matter. In order to achieve a profound interpretation, theoretical aids are needed: sociocultural, sociolinguistic, stylistic, capitalism, hegemony, discourse theory. In addition, hermeneutic theory as a strategic method for understanding texts must be interpreted for meaning. The results showed: the form of registers in the rhetoric of communication in the cattle trading arena in the form of oratorical, deliberative, consultative, casual, and intimate. The study concludes that the register functions as a conative and emotive tactic to influence, weaken, subdue, and restrain hegemony from creating an atmosphere of domination. The register applied in the rhetoric of communication in the cattle trading arena contains the symbolic meaning of feudalism relations in the form of phenomena of sociocultural practice events influenced by the discourse of tactics for capitalist cultural domination.
