Online vs. In-Person Investigations of Multisensory Motion Perception

Introduction: The global pandemic has required researchers to rely on virtual interactions and online platforms. Others have compared performance between on-line and web-based assessments (questionnaires; see Riva, Teruzzi, & Anolli, 2003), although the reliability of conducting psychophysical studies via Zoom has yet to be established. The present study investigated the reliability and validity of experimental results collected over Zoom. Methods: An audiovisual motion perception paradigm, previously used in-person, was deployed via Zoom. Participants selected an oddball video that contained varying speeds of two moving discs amongst an array of two other videos with constant motions. One of the videos in each array included a sound (or not in the control condition) that occurred at the collision point of the two discs. In-person findings showed participants reliably detected the oddball video (Kominsky et al., 2017), and that performance was modulated for sound conditions (Soma Tsutsuse, Vibell, & Sinnett, 2020). This paradigm allows for a direct comparison of reaction time, accuracy, and lag across platforms using time-sensitive videos synced with auditory stimuli. Results: In-person results showed that participants were significantly more accurate for conditions without sound compared to with sound, and exhibited faster reaction times for unnatural targets without sound. There was no significant interaction between motion type and sound. Similar results were observed for the online condition. Importantly, when directly comparing performance between in-person and online conditions, no significant effect was observed. Participants of both in-person and online conditions showed similar accuracy rates between testing modalities. Lastly, no differences were found in video presentation times, suggesting no lag differences online compared to in-person. Conclusion: The lack of lag and similarity of results across platforms suggests that experimental data can be collected over Zoom reliably and accurately with this paradigm. Furthermore, the virtual replication reflects promising experimental integrity of online platforms.
DPLL(MAPF): an Integration of Multi-Agent Path Finding and SAT Solving Technologies

The task in multi-agent path finding (MAPF) is to find non-conflicting paths connecting agents' start and goal positions. The MAPF problem is often compiled to Boolean satisfiability (SAT) and solved by existing SAT solvers. Contemporary compilation approaches of MAPF to SAT regard the SAT solver as an external tool whose task is to return an assignment of all decision variables of a Boolean model of the input MAPF instance. We present in this paper a novel compilation scheme called DPLL(MAPF) in which the consistency checking of partial assignments of decision variables with respect to the MAPF rules is integrated directly into the SAT solver. This scheme allows for far more automated compilation where the SAT solver and the consistency checking procedure work together simultaneously to create the Boolean model and to search for its satisfying assignment.

Noise-like discrete signals for asynchronous code division radio systems

This article discusses noise-like discrete signals (pseudo-random sequences) for asynchronous code division systems for radio channels. Asynchrony implies the use of sequences that are statistically uncorrelated for an arbitrary cyclically shifted copy of the signals, i.e. their cross-correlation coefficient for arbitrarily chosen starting points is close to zero. The fundamental theoretical limit for this characteristic is the well-known Welch boundary. In this paper, we compare the correlation properties of various sets (Gold codes, Kasami sequences, etc.) with this fundamental limit. The parameters of different codes are estimated, the corresponding bound is shown and compared with the real correlation characteristics of the codes. For the approximation, the Laurent series expansion and the Puiseau series were used. The asymptotic properties were also estimated. The paper also considers new ensembles of noise-like discrete signals for asynchronous systems. These codes are statistically uncorrelated, asymptotically the square of their cross-correlation for arbitrary starting points tends to the theoretical Welch bound. Moreover, the cardinality (power of the set) of new signal ensembles is much higher than that of Gold codes and Kasami sets. Consequently, the practical use of such noise-like discrete signals will increase the capacity of asynchronous code division systems for radio channels and reduce the cost of communication services. In addition, new sets of spreading signals will be useful for the implementation of the so-called. soft capacity, i.e. when, if necessary, the base station can increase the subscriber capacity with a slight decrease in the quality of service.
Application of Cooperative Learning Approach Based on Students Teams Achievement Division (STAD) to Increase Creativity in Creating Clothing Designs in Clothing Design Subjects

This study aims to determine 1) the application of the STAD (Student Teams Achievement Division) based cooperative learning approach in fashion design subjects, 2) to increase creativity in creating fashion designs in fashion design subjects with a STAD-based cooperative approach (Student Teams Achievement Division). This research is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) with a model developed by Kemmis and Mc. Taggart. The research subjects were students of class XI Fashion Design at SMKN 38 Jakarta, totaling 36 students. The implementation of this research in October and November 2019 consisted of two cycles, with the stages: Planning-Action-Observation-Reflection. The data collection method used was the observation method and the assignment assessment method. The results showed that the application of STAD-based cooperative learning begins with planning: 1) identifying problems, 2) finding the causes of problems, 3) selecting existing problems, and 4) designing actions to increase creativity in creating designs.Furthermore, according to the action design, the action and observation stages are carried out, namely implementing the STAD learning system by arranging learning steps in cycles. Each cycle, there are three meetings by implementing the five components of STAD learning, namely: a) class presentation; b) study groups; c) quizzes; d) group awards; e) compiling assessment criteria as a guideline for observation in learning, while in the reflection stage, observations and improvements are made to STAD learning in the previous cycle so that STAD learning in the next cycle will run better. In the implementation of STAD, it was seen that students could adapt and like the STAD system, and there was an increase in the average value of creativity after being given the first cycle of action by 12.2% from 68.6 to 80.8 after the second cycle action increased 6.4% from 80, 8 becomes 87.2. The description above shows that STAD-based cooperative learning can be applied to training drawing clothes and can increase creativity in creating designs for students with the highest average score on fluent thinking skills while the lowest increase is in original thinking skills.
Performance Evaluation of Color Descriptors under Illumination Variation

Color descriptors, which involve the extraction of color information that is robust to illumination variation, are indispensable for accessing reliable visual information as illumination variation is inevitable in many practical cases. There has been many color descriptors proposed in literature, but the performance of different color descriptors in different scenes under illumination variation and the influence of the surface characteristics have not been investigated. In this paper, we first systematically introduced the theoretical basis of color descriptors, categorized the existing color descriptors according to the theoretical basis, and then compared the performance of different color descriptors utilized for image recognition and image retrieval tasks on both the indoor and outdoor image datasets. We adopted the recognition rate and normalized average rank as the evaluation criteria to measure the performance of color descriptors. Experiment results show that the color moment invariants (CMI) provide the optimal balance between the performance and dimensions in most tests, and color descriptors derived from physical reflectance models are more suitable for object recognition and image retrieval. We also concluded the best color descriptors for each kind of scene and surface characteristics.
A Pursuit of Democratic Citizenship Education through History Education: Controversy and Possibility

In this study, we investigated the issues surrounding democratic citizenship education in Korean academia of history education. A decade ago, discussions on democratic citizenship education began by critically reflecting established discourses of history education; recently, those discussions have been expanded to various research topics. However, some scholars have been concerned with them, and they particularly disagreed with the specific ways to implement democratic citizenship education in history education. Thus, in this paper, we examined how history education could be integrated in democratic citizenship education. Above all, we discussed the meanings of democracy, democratic education, or democratic citizenship education, as concepts should be the basis for further discussion. Additionally, we examined the specific contexts that the discourses of democratic citizenship education started in Korean academia, and then critically reviewed the multiple discussions on democratic citizenship education. Finally, we argued that the values of history as the humanities are in line with the ultimate purpose of democratic citizenship education.

Stochastic Bouncy Particle Sampler for Bayesian Neural Networks

Due to their perceived computational cost, Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods have seen little recent application to Bayesian Neural Networks (BNNs). We show here that new continuous time MCMC methods can alleviate this cost, and allow for efficient sampling within BNNs. We propose a simplified version of the Stochastic Bouncy Particle Sampler, making it suitable to perform inference on both dense and convolutional networks. We introduce a new Python package that leverages modern GPU acceleration, allowing for flexible posterior distributions to be found without prohibitive time and compute restrictions.

Evaluating Korea’s Art and Culture Education Instructor Certification: Centered Around the Development of the Certificates in a Fully Professionalized System

This study conducts a comparative analysis of the old and new curricula of the Korean certification system for art and culture education instructors. Further, it identifies their features and the course programs of the designated educational institutions to evaluate Koreas art and cultures education certification process. Art and culture education instructors are professionals who plan, conduct, analyze, evaluate, and teach art and cultures education programs. A certification system for art and cultures education instructors was introduced in Korea in 2013 to increase the quality of art and cultures education, raise social awareness, and expand the scope of art and cultures activity. Since then, the system and its curriculum have been revised along with changes to institutional designations in 2016 and 2018. However, stakeholders have expressed concerns regarding the following: (1) the effectiveness in utilizing the art and culture education instructor’s certificate; (2) the designation and operation of educational institutions to train art and cultures education instructors; (3) the certification and proof of qualification; and (4) the curriculum of the current system and field-related problems. This study uses policy texts, curriculum materials, and related documents from the Korean Ministry to examine and assess these concerns and presents several recommendations to systematically develop professional art and cultures education instructors and improve the current system to make a new leap forward in art and cultures education.
Benchmarking Modern Named Entity Recognition Techniques for Free-text Health Record Deidentification

Electronic Health Records (EHRs) have become the primary form of medical data-keeping across the United States. Federal law restricts the sharing of any EHR data that contains protected health information (PHI). De-identification, the process of identifying and removing all PHI, is crucial for making EHR data publicly available for scientific research. This project explores several deep learning-based named entity recognition (NER) methods to determine which method(s) perform better on the de-identification task. We trained and tested our models on the i2b2 training dataset, and qualitatively assessed their performance using EHR data collected from a local hospital. We found that 1) Bi-LSTM-CRF represents the best-performing encoder/decoder combination, 2) character-embeddings tend to improve precision at the price of recall, and 3) transformers alone under-perform as context encoders. Future work focused on structuring medical text may improve the extraction of semantic and syntactic information for the purposes of EHR deidentification.

Superconducting Optoelectronic Networks for Quantum and Neuromorphic Computing

Efficient single-photon detectors have enabled new directions in experimental physics. Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) are a vital component in loophole-free Bell inequality violation, metrology beyond the shot-noise limit, and nuclear clock transition sensing. We discuss recent progress in cryogenic silicon photonic platforms at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). These platforms co-integrate SNSPDs, silicon-on-insulator waveguides, superconducting amplifiers, and all-silicon light sources based on emissive crystal defect centers. Together, these elements lay a foundation for large-scale quantum information systems and extremely low-power neuromorphic architectures. Neuromorphic photonics uses the complementary properties of optics and electronics to realize information processing capabilities far beyond what is possible with pure electronics. Its performance potentials are highly desired as neural network approaches have retaken the helm of machine learning. We present recent results in neuromorphic photonic architectures at NIST and Princeton: one signaling at single-photon levels, one signaling on sub-nanosecond timescales, both propelled by the emerging industrialization of silicon photonics. Neuromorphic and quantum processing approaches based on silicon photonics will overlap substantially in terms of technical challenges and enabling technologies.
