Differences in recognition of fragmented noisy and non-noisy images revealed by modeling

Experimental data on the recognition of fragmented contour images with and without noise are compared with the results of recognition process modeling. A reliable approximation in the matched filtering model for erroneous responses in both stimulation cases was obtained only when the contours were replaced with the image silhouettes. The number of correct responses depended on the contour lengths for the case of images without noise and on the number of extended oriented contour sections for the case of noisy images. This indicates the significant role of the extraction of orientations related to the law of good continuation known from Gestalt psychology in the recognition of noisy images. Therefore, differences between noisy fragmented images and fragmented images without noise were determined in the modeling of the recognition process; i.e., the recognition dependence on the background or target environment was demonstrated.

Beyond the caves : stone artifact analysis of late Middle Paleolithic open-air assemblages from the European Plain

The central question of this thesis is: What drives late Middle Paleolithic stone artifact variability? In its attempt to answer this question, this thesis is a contribution to understanding variability within and between late Middle Paleolithic assemblages of the European Plain. The selected research area is rich in late Middle Paleolithic open-air sites but up to now lacking detailed quantitative comparisons between them. This thesis uses standardized, more quantitative methods to analyze stone tool variability across techno-complexes. Stone artifact assemblages where analyzed based on a detailed attribute analysis and compared using multivariate methods, like Principal Component Analysis and Nonmetric Multidimensional Scaling. Additionally, methods from 3D geometric morphometrics where applied for the analysis of some individual tool types. The central finding of the studies presented in this thesis is that most of the variability observed in the record is not related to typo-technological classification, and it is not necessarily site-specific nor geographical. The variability can be related to raw materials, but it can also be related to the varying application of similar methods in blank and tool production. The analyses of individual tools suggest further that certain tool concepts, like the bifacial Keilmesser are not restricted to bifacial tools only.

Assessing student contributions in a simulated human tutor with Latent Semantic Analysis

Authors show how a corpus-based, statistical natural language understanding technique called Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) allows AutoTutor to understand student responses and respond appropriately. They describe analyses of the performance of LSA with respect to human raters. A fairly complete description of the architecture of AutoTutor has been given elsewhere. The authors used a 200-dimensional LSA space to compare student contributions with expected good answers, and calculated a compatibility score that reflected the extent to which the student contribution matched part of the good answer. Then the authors tested LSA's performance by comparing its ratings to those of four human raters: two subject-area experts, and two with intermediate domain knowledge. As expected, there was a main effect of the quality of the student contributions.

Solving Mathematical Problems in the Context of Some Obstacles between Teachers and Students

Great mathematical discoveries are mostly based on huge knowledge of their explorers and long, solid work leading slowly to the finding. There are also well known cases of the “accidental” discoveries that happened quickly, intense and their founders did not even realize the range of the discovery, because they were working on something else at the time. Nevertheless, each finding requires energy, devotion and concentration of its discoverer. Solving mathematical problems demands quite the same things, thus teachers may find some opportunities to create curious, open-minded young discoverers. It is not an easy job to do though, because there is a great risk of killing pupils’ enthusiasm by teacher’s skepticism, there is a large chance to nip pupils’ energy in the bud by routine operations and there is a huge possibility to discourage pupils’ endeavors by giving them wrong-chosen problems to solve.

Planiranje i izvođenje biciklističkih prometnica

As life quality in cities has become an issue because of environmental pollution, cycling is gaining popularity as a utilitarian mode of transportation. Cycling brings certain environmental and health-related benefits. It limits the consumption of fossil fuels, causes less noise pollution and it is fluid, reliable and affordable transport mean. But for cycling to develop into a suitable form of transportation, it is necessary to ensure smooth and uninterrupted mobility of cyclists by building safe, connected and obstaclefree infrastructure. It is desirable to provide segregated cycling paths as they allow maximum mobility and at the same time provide safety during the trip. According to the statistics stated in in numbers, 415 kilometres of bicycle paths/lanes have been built in the city of Zagreb. However, according to thorough measurements carried out in 2016 by the Cyclists' Union, Zagreb has only 168 kilometres of bike paths/lanes. In addition to the insufficiently built cycling infrastructure, in most cases, it was not planned to create an integrated network in which users can switch from one transportation mode to another. The issue of planned and constructed cycling infrastructure will be presented on the examples of Gajeva Street in Zagreb city and GG1 Street in Jastrebarsko city.

Edge Computing: Next-Generation Computing

The electronic computer is one of the most important developments of the twentieth century. Almost all kinds of people are getting the benefit of computing for one or another purpose in life. Since the inception of the computer, there is a paradigm shift of computing from mainframes to microcomputers, microcomputers to a personal computer (pc), pc to centralized (web), and then to the cloud. This chapter outlines the term computing and its purpose in everyday life. It even explained what comprises a computing environment and mentioned the various types of computing environments. Moreover, the market size of edge computing by value is presented, and various players in the market are mentioned. The demands of micro edge data centers have been increasing in the market mainly to scale up the growth of edge computing platform-based applications as opposed to conventional data center environments. Furthermore, the chapter explains the concept of edge computing and how it differs from cloud computing. In addition, typical layered architecture of the edge computing ecosystem is presented, and the various types of components present in each layer are outlined. The characteristics of edge computing and the various types of edge computing devices are also stated. Besides, the main benefits of edge computing are also briefly explained. Finally, two use cases where edge computing brings new values to the society namely IoT-based automated assisted living care and contactless healthcare services are also discussed.
PROBLEMS OF SHARING BIBLIOGRAPHIC RECORDS OF THE ELECTRONIC LIBRARY CATALOG

The issues of reducing time and labor costs for document processing, expanding and improving the quality of bibliographic records (BR), library products and services continue to be actual in Russian libraries. To accomplish these tasks, various projects of corporate library interaction are being implemented, aimed at solving the issues of acquisition, cataloguing, creation of central and distributed catalogs and user services. Library cooperation in cataloguing allows providing libraries with the possibility of mutual records use with their subsequent improvement and promotes unification of BR elements. The purpose of the article is to identify the problems that hinder the effectiveness of creating and using electronic catalogue BR in SPSTL SB RAS. It also shows the difficulties faced by the library cataloguers when borrowing records from the Russian Book Chamber database (RBC DB). It is noted that by borrowing records from the RBC DB, SPSTL SB RAS provides an opportunity to use its EC to the libraries of the research institutions of SB RAS (SRI of SB RAS). The article also demonstrates the experience of the Unified Automation Center (UAC) of SPSTL SB RAS, which contains information resources of libraries of the research institutions of SB RAS. Electronic catalogs and databases of these libraries are presented on the website of SPSTL SB RAS in the «Electronic catalogs and databases of the Library System of the research institutions of SB RAS». The conclusions are made that when borrowing records from the library electronic catalogs, the question of their quality and uniformity is left open, using the technology of corporate cataloguing brings significant advantages to the work of libraries. On the one hand, it allows to save labor and time resources by ready-made records of the RBC DB, on the other hand – to provide an opportunity to use BR by other libraries, while advertising their own information resources.

Evaluating the Software Frameworks for DevelopingDecentralized Autonomous Organizations

First Bitcoin in 2008, and later Ethereum in 2014, held a powerful promise: online decentralized governance, without servers or central controllers, not just for finance applications like crypto-currencies but for any organization. The so called Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) were expected to fulfill such a promise, enabling people to organize online relying on blockchain-based systems and smart contracts automatizing part of their governance. In 2016, three DAO software frameworks —Aragon, DAOstack and Colony— emerged aiming to facilitate development and experimentation in this field. To which extent do they facilitate DAO development today? This paper performs an analytical comparison of these three frameworks, focusing on their current functionalities for building DAOs. We find Aragon to be the most complete in several aspects. In order to provide more details on the challenges on building DAOs with current frameworks, we present a case study using the Aragon framework. Through this case study, we have piloted DAO development using this framework, and thus we may highlight the benefits, limitations and problems that developers face when adopting it. Our findings show that, even if Aragon does provide superior capabilities to other frameworks, it is still highly challenging to build a DAO with the current tools. Today, problems include issues on software engineering, instability, localization, documentation, lack of formalization and standards, and interoperability. Complementarily, this paper aims to provide some guidance to those developers aiming to face the challenges in developing a DAO, and to those aiming to fix the major weak points that make DAOs the organizations of a still distant future.
Smarter interoperability based on automatic schema matching and intelligence amplification

The process of connecting enterprise systems and applications to digital platforms and ecosystems requires interoperability on different levels and eventually leads to the task of creating a schema mapping. At present, this task is carried out manually and prior research has proven this task difficult to automate. In this paper, we discuss the suitability of machine learning approaches to create an auto-mapping functionality, so different schemas and standards can (partially) be mapped automatically, and incorporate a symbiotic approach to improve the matching result. To the best of our knowledge, this is a new approach with potential to reduce the time needed for schema matching tasks. The main contribution of this paper is a reference architecture and prototype for smarter interoperability using a combination of automatic schema matching, based on machine learning, and intelligence amplification.
An Empirical Study of Design Patent Litigation

High-profile design patent litigation between Apple and Samsung has made headlines in the last few years. Not surprisingly, thereafter, design patents and related litigation have risen exponentially, and have become more important to the economy. Design patents provide legal protection for aesthetic and ornamental aspects of a manufactured product. While there is a rich and longstanding empirical literature and a crucial understanding about many facets of utility patent litigation, almost nothing is known about the design patent litigation world. This article fills that void. By building a novel and comprehensive database of all lawsuits alleging design patent infringement from 2000 to 2016, this article reports the results of a broad empirical exploration of design patent litigation, while giving an overview of the design patent litigation process.The study reveals that while utility and design patent litigation look similar at first glance, they are actually very different in several important respects. First, we find that unlike utility litigation, which almost always often involves a large company, almost half of design patent litigation involves small or medium-sized companies as both plaintiffs and defendants. Second, the amount of design patent litigation has continuously increased over the last decade, whereas utility patent infringement lawsuits sharply increased and then dipped over the same period. Third, design patent plaintiffs tend to file cases in different districts than utility patent plaintiffs. Namely, we find that design patent asserters did not participate in the flood of litigation in the Eastern District of Texas. Finally, design patent plaintiffs are almost all practicing entities who manufacture products rather than non-practicing entities (so-called “trolls”). These empirical findings have important implications for the law of design patents. While the courts treat utility and design patent litigation as similar for many purposes, including understanding the doctrine and managing the docket, the actual litigation on the ground is starkly different.
