Thus, virtual reality program training was applied to stroke patients. Participants in this study were randomly assigned to 13 members of the experimental groups that performed Nintendo Wii virtual reality program training and 13 members of the control groups that performed repeatable occupational therapy, and mediation was conducted five times a week, one day and 30 minutes a week. Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and Stroke Impact Scale3.0 (SIS3.0) were evaluated to compare the quality of life before and after exercise. After exercise, the experimental group showed statistically significant differences in the reduction of depression and quality of life. In addition, the control group showed a significant difference in quality of life, but there was no significant difference in the reduction of depression. In addition, the experimental group showed a significant difference in the reduction of depression compared to the control group, but there was no significant difference in the quality of life. In this study, it is believed that training in Nintendo Wii virtual reality programs will have an effective effect on the reduction of depression in stroke patients and the enhancement of quality of life, which will be useful in psychological and social aspects.
Impact of subcircuit selection on the efficiency of CGP-based optimization of gate-level circuits

Various EA-based methods have been applied to design and optimize logic circuits since the early nineties. The unconventional methods, however, typically suffer from various scalability issues preventing them to be adopted in practice. Recent improvement in the fitness computation procedure connected with the introduction of formal methods in the fitness evaluation such as SAT solvers or BDDs enabled pushing of the limits forward and approaching the complexity of industrial problems. It was demonstrated that EAs can be applied to optimize gate-level circuits consisting of thousands of gates without introducing any decomposition technique. Despite that, the efficiency decreases with increasing the circuit complexity. This problem can be managed by adopting the concept of the so-called iterative resynthesis based on the extraction of smaller sub-circuits from a complex circuit, their local optimization followed by the implantation back to the original circuit. Recently, a method based on the computation of so-called cuts was proposed. In this paper, we propose an alternative approach which is able to select more complex sub-graphs consisting of more nodes and more inputs. Compared to the previous method, the proposed approach allows to improve the efficiency of the optimization. More than 9% and 20% reduction was observed on the highly optimized logic and arithmetic circuits, respectively.

The variational predictive natural gradient

Variational inference transforms posterior inference into parametric optimization thereby enabling the use of latent variable models where otherwise impractical. However, variational inference can be finicky when different variational parameters control variables that are strongly correlated under the model. Traditional natural gradients based on the variational approximation fail to correct for correlations when the approximation is not the true posterior. To address this, we construct a new natural gradient called the Variational Predictive Natural Gradient (VPNG). Unlike traditional natural gradients for variational inference, this natural gradient accounts for the relationship between model parameters and variational parameters. We demonstrate the insight with a simple example as well as the empirical value on a classification task, a deep generative model of images, and probabilistic matrix factorization for recommendation.
DECENTRALIZING OF TRANSPARENCY: USING BLOCKCHAIN TO REDUCE COUNTERFEITING

Whether online or in-store, how can consumer trust and interact with certification marks?The lack of transparency when buying a product with a certificate is one of the shadows when economic coming to growth.According to the report conducted jointly by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the EU Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) on "Trade in Counterfeit and Pirated Goods: Mapping the Economic Impact", imports of counterfeit and pirated goods are worth nearly half a trillion dollars a year, or around 2.5% of global imports.In the EU, counterfeit and pirated goods amounted to up to 5 % of imports or as much as EUR 85 billion (USD 116 billion) (OECD/EUIPO, 2016).The Increasing presence of counterfeit and non-compliant (often unsafe) products on the European market need from one side the intervention of Inspection Agencies and from the other side a Decentralizing of Transparency by using Blockchain Technology.So far, approximately 50 alerts published each week on the European Commission's website and just over 2 000 alerts published per year about counterfeiting (Directorate-General for Justice and Consumers (European Commission), 2018).In this paper, we describe a decentralized product certificate information that ensures consumer inform themselves about product specification especially the validity information of the certificate.We implement a protocol that turns a Blockchain into an automated access-control.Unlike Bitcoin, transactions in our system are not strictly financialthey are used to carry data, such as storing, querying and sharing product certificate data after that we briefly examine and substantiate short why the Industry and society need a new approach to reduce counterfeiting and improve transparency and what is the difference to the conventional way to access with a central database.Finally, we discuss possible future extensions to Blockchains that could harness them into a well-rounded solution for trusted computing problems in society.One of the main Goals of this research is we went to enable consumer to check the validity of certifications, understand their value.This would be the one of the important steps in the direction to reduce counterfeiting.Like all prior disruptive technologies there will be beneficial and detrimental aspects of Blockchain technologies that will need to be carefully considered prior to development and commercialization of the approach presented in this paper.

Motivation as One of the Most Effective Ways of Optimizing Foreign Language Learning Process in Higher Educational Establishments

The purpose of the work is to consider the most important conditions and ways of forming positive sustainable motivation of students’ educational activities, identify key aspects, analyze peculiarities of different methodologies and newest motivational approaches concerning the issue of foreign languages study. The research methodology consisted in the application of such research methods as study, analysis and generalization with the purpose of revealing the concept of motivation as one of the most effective ways of optimizing foreign language learning process. Scientific novelty of the work is to determine the role of the teacher in the process of overcoming communicative deviations on the basis of linguocultural differences and structuring some psychological and pedagogical aspects of motivation as an integral component of the foreign language study, which are considered in this article. Also, the article explicitly outlines and suggests concrete ways and methods for the formation and development of sustainable positive motivation. It is believed that content consistency during the process of studying, methods of teaching, consideration of students’ cognitive needs and interests are the main factors in the process of educational motivation formation and these elements strengthen all components of motivation: needs, aspirations, interests, emotions, motives themselves, which in turn contribute to the deepening and expansion of the sphere of students’ cognitive activity. Conclusions. Consequently, we considered some of the most important, in our opinion, conditions and ways of forming positive, stable motivation for students’ educational activities. To establish such a motivation, one should use not only one way, but all ways, methods in a certain system, in a complex, because none of them, without others, can play a decisive role in the formation of motivation. Consistency of the educational content and ways of filing it with cognitive needs and students interests counteracts the formation of a negative educational result. Optimally selected material strengthens all components of motivation: needs, aspirations, interests, emotions, motives themselves. Formation of a stable motivation level requires teacher to select appropriate educational materials that would represent cognitive, communicative, professional values, stimulate mental activity, and promote deepening and expansion of cognitive students’ activity.

NGPaaS Framework for Enriched and Customized Virtual Network Functions-as-a-Service

This paper describes how the novel Next Generation Platform-as-a-Service (NGPaaS) framework can facilitate major benefits for Network Operators and Vertical Service Providers (VSPs) who wish to leverage Virtual Network Functions-as-a-Service (VNFaaS) capabilities. Network Operators can benefit by providing an "on demand" PaaS with required features for the VSPs, thus generating new revenue streams but with low operational overhead due to the high degree of automation. VSPs can benefit from the PaaS-oriented approach, by being able to flexibly on-board new VNF types and "value-added" service capabilities like monitoring, healing and profiling, to deliver customized service blueprints to meet the needs of their end customers. The paper outlines the design of an early prototype, built on the Open-CORD platform and using industry-standard Virtualised Network Functions (VNFs).

The Embodiment of Writing Process and the Artistic Point of View: Comparing “Nirvana” (Jeok Myeol) with A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

This article compared “Nirvana” (Jeok Myeol) by Park Taewon with the last chapter of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce, focusing on the embodiment of writing and the manifestation of the artistic point of view within the text. James Joyce inserted ‘the creational process of literary writing’ into A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man through a detailed description about Stephen’s writing of a villanelle. Furthermore, the last chapter without any special plot unfolds the literary theory of Stephen who finally recognizes his identity as an artist (or a writer). In the chapter, through his conversation with several other characters such as Davin, Stanley, and Lynch Joyce also effectively reveals Stephen’s artistic autonomy against the narrow minded Irish nationalism, Catholic religion, and the family system. Similarly Park Taewon’s “Nirvana” is ‘a novel about writing a novel’ because it sets up a novelist as its main character and constitutes the story from the process of his writing of a novel. And the novelist’s conversation with a fictional character who can be interpreted as another self of the novelist shows Park Taewon’s attempt to overcome the realistic constraints of Japanese imperialism by embracing the unconscious areas of human beings. Like this, the two writers, in common, inserted their struggle to solve the questions such as “What is the nature of literature?” and “What does it mean to write a novel?” into their own text.

Measurement of GHZ and cluster state entanglement monotones in transmon qubits

Experimental detection of entanglement in superconducting qubits has been mostly limited, for more than two qubits, to witness-based and related approaches that can certify the presence of some entanglement, but not rigorously quantify how much. Here we measure the entanglement of three- and four-qubit GHZ and linear cluster states prepared on the 16-qubit IBM Rueschlikon (ibmqx5) chip, by estimating their entanglement monotones. GHZ and cluster states not only have wide application in quantum computing, but also have the convenient property of having similar state preparation circuits and fidelities, allowing for a meaningful comparison of their degree of entanglement. We also measure the decay of the monotones with time, and find in the GHZ case that they actually oscillate, which we interpret as a drift in the relative phase between the $|0\rangle^{\otimes n}$ and $|1\rangle^{\otimes n}$ components, but not an oscillation in the actual entanglement. After experimentally correcting for this drift with virtual Z rotations we find that the GHZ states appear to be considerably more robust than cluster states, exhibiting higher fidelity and entanglement at later times. Our results contribute to the quantification and understanding of the strength and robustness of multi-qubit entanglement in the noisy environment of a superconducting quantum computer.
