Formulaic expressions in language technology

Little attention has been given to the treatment of formulaic expressions in language technology during the past few decades, although such expressions are in fact extremely common both in conversation and in written discourse.Computer-Assisted Translation (CAT) tools are currently the most widely used language technology tools among professional translators.In this paper, I intend to determine the usefulness of such tools in the treatment of formulaic expressions.In particular, the aim is to evaluate the performance of Trados (2007 version), the leader in the CAT-tools market, in the treatment of such expressions, compared to the treatment of terms and ordinary translation units, by examining the performance of selected components in the identification and translation of formulaic expressions.

Diagnosis of Types of Diseases in Cassava Plant by Bayes Method

This research was conducted to implement the Bayes algorithm in an expert system to diagnose types of diseases in cassava plants. The research data was taken from the Binjai City Agriculture and Fisheries Office in 2018. The expert system was built based on the web, where the application was built using the PHP programming language and MySQL DBMS. The results showed that the Bayes algorithm can be used in expert system applications to diagnose types of cassava plant diseases. In the Bayes algorithm, the knowledge base is taken from the data of the amount of data from cassava plants that suffer from disease, so the results of diagnosing cassava plants are based on existing data. Therefore, the more patient data that is used as a knowledge base, the better the diagnosis results are given.
The Sisyphic Destiny of Philosphy (of Education)

Authors begin by a synthetic historical review of the emergence of the philosophy of education up to the present day. It follows a presentation of the results of recent meta-analyses on the topics, problems, guidelines and relevance given to the philosophy of education (PE). For this purpose, several paths were chosen: one, more empirical, focused on the works developed within the field; the other, more foundational, sought a disciplinary sense within the field’s tradition and the current challenges that are being raised. Authors then outline some of the paths that can be opened up for the philosophy of education, understood as a critical and creative quest. Namely, they try to show how it may be understood as a creation of concepts, in a stance to rip Chaos, by introducing an innovative intensity, which can correspond to the creation of meaning that opens and articulates a possible world (of meaning). Complementary to this, PE could take charge of the analysis of educational discourses, the suggestion of a general direction for the educational process, the elucidation of the human’s educating structure, the explanation of the different pedagogies through the unveiling of their underlying teleology, the recollection of interesting philosophical questions for educators, or a metaphysical analysis of related issues, as well as an analytic approach, aimed at clarifying concepts, or a radical approach, by reflecting upon the deep assumptions of education, and even a deductive approach derived from the great philosophical matrices. Philosophy of education remains, nowadays, a field of hermeneutic openness that should assume the stance of resistance to any attempts to stifle or silence the axiological dimension, and very particularly, PE could be developed as a way of probing the concrete educational practice activity, by engaging in discussions, in order to make suggestions about “what was valuable in the past” and “what is worthwhile in the present”. Today, perhaps more than ever, PE requires the critical work and commitment that philosophy always had the virtue of incisively developing, particularly when it comes to the field of education that is proven to be a multi-layered arena of conflicting crossovers.Keywords: Education; philosophy; assignments; goals
Word category and prosodic emphasis in dialog modules of speech technology applications

The prosodic behavior of word categories in Modern Greek is observed in relation to two keyword-based Speech Technology applications, namely for a Speech Recognition system in the healthcare domain for task-oriented dialogs intended for senior citizens and for the prosodic modelling of utterances produced by a Conversational Agent in a dialog system for consumer complaints.Word categories are evaluated and classified in the two applications, in respect to the types of words contained in each category, their relation to keywords and their effect on the user.
Self-sustaining and externally-powered fixed, single, and dual-axis solar trackers

&lt;p&gt;Power output from a small solar panel can be affected by its power consumption when it consumes power from the solar panel. There has been a lack of proper research and experiment in the use of small solar panel with tracking systems. Its significance was detailed in this paper where the voltage output are compared with those which were externally powered. The solar trackers and a microcontroller have been designed and fabricated for this research. Due to the use of the tracking system (single axis and dual axis), the power consumption varies from one to another and its effect on the voltage output. Several experiments have been conducted and it was concluded that small solar panels are not efficient enough to utilize with tracking capabilities due to an increase in power consumption. The externally powered system was found to generate 18% more output compared to a selfsustaining system and that the increase in average power consumptions compared to a fixed panel were 31.7% and 82.5% for single-axis and dualaxis tracker respectively. A concrete evidence was made that utilizing solar tracking capabilities for low power rated solar panel is unfeasible.&lt;/p&gt;
Analysis of Speech Acts for the Design of a Corpus of Phrases used in an Intelligent Learning Environment

Artificial intelligence is a fundamental part of our life today.An example is the simulators integrated by intelligent virtual characters that serve as instructors in interactive environments where no matter the place and time, people can take a class and even train in a video game.These virtual agents require a corpus of phrases to have a dialogue similar to that of a human being.This article describes an investigation of the types of speech acts immersed in an interactive dialogue.They describe the most relevant characteristics for an educational environment, such as the type of phrase, the function it performs, its meaning, etc., thus discarding those that do not belong to this environment.The main objective is to develop a specific corpus of phrases for an intelligent virtual agent belonging to a serious game for learning purposes used as an interactive learning environment.
The Quality Satisfaction of A Multi-User Virtual Reality System

System and service quality is important in influencing user adoption of technology such as virtual reality. This study explored user satisfaction and classified user expectation of a multi-user virtual reality system by using the Kano model. Focus group discussion was conducted to identify quality requirements such as interactive, immersive, functional and practical attributes. A Kano questionnaire was used to measure user satisfaction for the quality attributes. The result indicated that immersive and functional attributes were classified as must-be requirements. Interactive attributes were classified as one-dimensional and practical attributes as attractive requirements. It is an essential and critical element for a virtual reality system to meet and satisfy user needs.
Towards a Natural Language-based Dialog Model as an Assistant Tool for Dementia Therapy

Reminiscence therapy is a treatment of dementia that mitigates the unstable psychological states of a person with dementia, through conversations between patient and caregiver that evoke past experiences focusing on the patient's long-term memory.It is recommended that a person with dementia receive this type of therapy constantly.In this work, we propose the design of a dialog model that generates personalized conversations between a conversational system and patients with Alzheimer's disease, with the aim to assist their caregivers in providing this type of therapy.The proposed model will be capable of getting a semantic interpretation about what the user is saying, identifying the type of dialog, also it will use information from the patient's life history and lifestyle to generate the conversations.During the dialog between the system and the patient, the model searches for relevant information related to the patient's history through the use of ontologies to enrich and develop a further conversation.
Resource Utilization Prediction Model for Efficient Dynamic Virtual Machine Consolidation in Cloud

Virtual Machine (VM) consolidation is an optimization approach for VM placement in cloud infrastructure, which is one of the effective ways to efficiently utilize cloud resources in order to optimize number of VM migrations, Service Level Agreement (SLA) violations and energy consumption problems. Static VM consolidation strategies have not been effective in handling variation of workloads in the cloud systems. Dynamic VM strategies have been proposed in the literatures. However, in the dynamic VM consolidation process, most existing algorithms consolidate active servers mainly based on the current resource requirements and forgo the demands of resources in the future during VM allocation. Thus, they result in needless VM migrations and cause high rate of SLA violations in data centers. This research proposed a prediction-based VM consolidation approach. The proposed method utilized a multi-resource utilization to predict the current and future CPU and memory utilization of active servers during allocation stage. The proposed method was compared with the existing one that did not consider future utilization of resources. CloudSim toolkit 3.0 simulator was used to implement and evaluate the performance of the algorithms. The proposed algorithm was found to have improved in terms of number of VM migrations and SLA violations. Using the number of hosts (400, 600, and 800), the proposed method was 28%, 32% and 38% decrease in number of VM migrations and 0.03243%, 0.03247% and 0.01474% decrease in SLA violations compared with the existing method, respectively. Recommendations and future directions were suggested for further improvements.

Service Level Agreements for Cloud Infrastructures

Service Level Agreements (SLAs) are the agreements on terms of services delivered by the service provider and the client. It defines the agreed parameters on which the services should be delivered by the provider and be expected by the client. The quality of service, the amount of time spent on fixing the issues of all priorities, the individual parameters on which a support staff is expected to be on the call and provide end-to-end service to the customer, all these factors define the Service Level Agreements. These agreements are configured in the ITSM tool and are applicable between three parties, the Service Provider organization and customer organization (SLA); between the different departments within the customer organization (OLA); and between the third party vendors and the customer organization (UC). It is easier to contractually define the SLAs/OLAs/UCs for the services provided in a non-cloud environment, but difficult to define on cloud infrastructure environment. In this paper, we will try to answer few questions on such SLA definitions and some cautions to take while working on writing SLAs in a cloud environment. This paper studies the Service Level Agreement process of the Service Design module of the ITIL and how effectively SLAs should be written on the Cloud infrastructures in the IT industry.

Use of Parallel Patterns of Communication between Processes for search of Sequences DNA and RNAi Strings

Within an environment of Parallel Objects, an approach of Structured Parallel Programming and the paradigm of the Orientation to Objects show a programming method based on High Level Parallel Compositions or HLPC to solve two problems of combinatorial optimization: grouping fragments of DNA sequences and the parallel exhaustive search (PES) of RNA strings that help the sequence and assembly of DNAs in the construction of gnomes.The Pipeline and Farm models of parallel patterns of communication between processes are shown as HLPC under the Object Orientation paradigm to solve the cited problems.Each HLPC contains a set of predefined synchronization constraints between processes, as well as the use of synchronous, asynchronous and asynchronous future modes of communication.We show the algorithms that solves the problems, their design and implementation as HLPC and the performance metrics in their parallel execution using multicores and video accelerator card.
AUTHENTIC MATHEMATICAL TASKS IN DIFFERENTIATED TEACHING IN THE INCLUSIVE CLASS

The purpose of the work is to introduce differentiated teaching in inclusive classes and to use authentic tasks in the educational process. The methodological basis of inclusion is the synthesis of a new theory, which includes knowledge of philosophy, general pedagogy, special pedagogy and psychology, general psychology, age and pedagogical psychology, medicine, etc. An important step in reforming education in this area is the philosophy of inclusive education, which is based on the conviction of the need to change the educational paradigm - the integration of two traditional systems into a single system of education. Scientific novelty. Submitted authentic maths for students are practical and interesting to solve. These tasks should be used in maths lessons in regular and inclusive classes. Differentiated teaching implies from the outset that all students are different, and so the teacher's task is to identify differences and adapt the learning process accordingly; all this must be done creatively and with the desire to provide a useful learning experience for all. The typical tasks that teachers use in mathematics lessons often have nothing to do with problematic activity, that is, they are not what people face in real situations. They are clearly defined, information-complete and characterized by the presence of one correct answer, lack of intrinsic motivation for their implementation, i.e. they are of no interest to the students. Unlike the academic approach, authentic tasks are typically characterized by the key role of problem recognition and identification, uncertain nature of the problem, significant information seeking, several correct solutions, appropriate prior experience, and motivation and emotional nature of performance, taking into account unforeseen circumstances.

Name dominance in spoken word recognition is (not) modulated by expectations: evidence from synonyms

TwoGerman eye-tracking experiments tested whether top-down expectations interact with acoustically-driven word-recognition processes.Competitor objects with two synonymous names were paired with target objects whose names shared word onsets with either the dominant or the non-dominant name of the competitor.Non-dominant names of competitor objects were either introduced before the test session or not.Eye-movements were monitored while participants heard instructions to click on target objects.Results demonstrate dominant and non-dominant competitor names were considered for recognition, regardless of top-down expectations, though dominant names were always activated more strongly.
