MUSIC AS A FULCRUM OF COMMUNICATION

This paper focuses on the enormous effect of music on the human psyche and its communicative inherence; it deliberates on its sonorous enticing effects on repairing a broken soul, as well as on its rhythmic harsh resonance in rebuffing an unacceptable behaviour in the society. Music as an art form, like every other art, in spite of its particularity for organizing sounds, aims to communicate to its audience, to project a musical discourse from a source (singer) to a recipient (listener).“Music is a language that doesn’t speak in particular words. It speaks in emotions, and if it’s in the bones, it’s in the bones.” — Keith Richards.
Attacking Few-Shot Classifiers with Adversarial Support Sets

Few-shot learning systems, especially those based on meta-learning, have recently made significant advances, and are now being considered for real world problems in healthcare, personalization, and science. In this paper, we examine the robustness of such deployed few-shot learning systems when they are fed an imperceptibly perturbed few-shot dataset, showing that the resulting predictions on test inputs can become worse than chance. This is achieved by developing a novel Adversarial Support Set Attack which crafts a poisoned set of examples. When even a small subset of malicious data points is inserted into the support set of a meta-learner, accuracy is significantly reduced. For example, the average classification accuracy of CNAPs on the Aircraft dataset in the META-DATASET benchmark drops from 69.2% to 9.1% when only 20% of the support set is poisoned by imperceptible perturbations. We evaluate the new attack on a variety of few-shot classification algorithms including MAML, prototypical networks, and CNAPs, on both small scale (miniImageNet) and large scale (META-DATASET) few-shot classification problems. Interestingly, adversarial support sets produced by attacking a meta-learning based few-shot classifier can also reduce the accuracy of a fine-tuning based few-shot classifier when both models use similar feature extractors.
Views on Antitrust Issues Relating to the Digital Marketplace Submitted to the Subcommittee on Antitrust, Commercial, and Administrative Law

The digital economy presents challenges for antitrust law, but changes in substantive antitrust law are not needed to cope with them. The biggest problem in antitrust today is that the courts impose excessive burdens on plaintiffs, but no constructive solution to that problem is evident, and most proposed reform proposals are apt to do more harm than good. Moreover, the meaning of any legislative change to substantive antitrust law could take generations to resolve. The Foreign Trade Antitrust Improvements Act of 1982 is an abject lesson. Its meaning still is not fully resolved, and it threatens the ability of U.S. consumers to seek redress when harmed by international cartels.
Pengaruh Jumlah Data Hujan Maksimum Terhadap Data Hujan Rancangan

The influence of the maximum amount of rainfall data on the design rain, on the Kali Birin Sub Watershed Dengkeng tributaries will greatly affect the amount of rain depth value in a particular return period. The availability of data on the DPU for water resource management in Klaten, Central Java is quite complete, so a design rainfall analysis can be done. Calculation of rain frequency analysis can be used with the help of the Aprob_4.1 computer program, this computer program is only used for the calculation of frequency analysis which will produce the determination of the distribution used and the determination of 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500 and 500 1000 years. Taking the amount of data n = 16 to n = 30 data. The results of the calculation of the amount of rain data that is believed to be a reference to analyze deviations from the return value of rain from 2.5.10 to 1000 is 28 data, the amount of rain data that is farther from 28 data, shows the greater deviation. The deviations are as follows: for the smallest amount of rain data (n = 16) of 7.692% to -3.750% (when 2 years to 1000 years), (n = 18) an error of 5.769% to -3750% occurred, (n = 20) there was an error of 3,846% to 2,500%, (n = 22) there was an error of 1,923% to 2,500%, (n = 24) there was an error of 0% up to 1,2500%, (n = 26) an error of 1.25% to -1.96% and the last (n = 28) an error of 0% occurred. The minimum amount of rainfall data that is still feasible to use for frequency analysis is 20 data, with deviations <5%.
Toxic and mutagenic activity of water samples from natural sources of the Enbekshikazakh district of the Almaty

The current ecological situation sharply raises the question of checking water sources for mutagenic,genotoxic, and phytotoxic activity. An increase in human activity around water sources increases therisk of surface water pollution by various emissions and wastes, an increase in the concentration ofvarious pollutants in the aquatic environment can lead to mutagenic activity of this source. Since therivers Esik, Turgen, and Lake Esik, located in the Enbekshikazakh district of the Almaty region, are closeto highways, various enterprises and proximity to human activities, the risk of pollution is continuallyincreasing. As a result of physicochemical analysis of the composition of water samples, an excessof the maximum permissible concentration for manganese, lead, zinc, and cadmium was found. TheAllium-test revealed toxicity and mutagenicity of the studied water samples. The phytotoxic activitywas observed in the water of the River Esik, manifested in the inhibition of onion root growth. Cytotoxicactivity in the water of the rivers Esik, Turgen, and Lake Esik was manifested in a statistically significantdecrease (p≤0.05) in the mitotic index compared to the negative control (distilled water). A weak mutagenic activity was established in water samples from the river. Esik, Turgen and Lake Esik, manifested ina statistically significant increase in the level of chromosomal aberrations in the cells of the root meristemof onions when germinating in water from these water bodies, compared with negative control (p≤0.05).Thus, the obtained results of the study of the toxic and mutagenic potential of natural surface waters fromwater bodies located on the territory of the Enbekshikazakh district of the Almaty region indicate theircontamination with environmentally hazardous factors that pose a threat to biota and human health.Key words: natural surface waters, heavy metals, Allium test, mitotic index, chromosomalaberrations.
Effective Requirement Engineering Process by incorporating Risk Management Approach

Software engineering is affecting almost every aspect of our daily life. Software development isthe basic activity in the world of software engineering and information technology. Software developmentinvolves some set of steps that are called as software development life cycle. It is considerable for success ofany software that each step of SDLC is error and defect free. But it is unfortunate to proceed in SDLCwithout any uncertainties. So it is great if we identify and analyze the risks at early steps of SDLC.Requirement engineering is introductory phase of software development life cycle in which the basicrequirements are gathered from customer. If risks are ignored at requirement engineering phase then it willhave negative impacts on the projects ability to achieve performance and outcome goals. The main theme ofthis paper is to highlight the risk factors in the requirement engineering phase and fixing them byincorporating risk management approach. The conclusion of this paper explains the importance of executingthe risk management in requirement engineering process
Decision-Making for Autonomous Mobility Using Remotely Sensed Terrain Parameters in Off-Road Environments

&lt;div class="section abstract"&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;Off-road vehicle operation requires constant decision-making under great uncertainty. Such decisions are multi-faceted and range from acquisition decisions to operational decisions. A major input to these decisions is terrain information in the form of soil properties. This information needs to be propagated to path planning algorithms that augment them with other inputs such as visual terrain assessment and other sensors. In this sequence of steps, many resources are needed, and it is not often clear how best to utilize them. We present an integrated approach where a mission’s overall performance is measured using a multiattribute utility function. This framework allows us to evaluate the value of acquiring terrain information and then its use in path planning. The computational effort of optimizing the vehicle path is also considered and optimized. We present our approach using the data acquired from the Keweenaw Research Center terrains and present some results.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Predicting and Analysis of Phishing Attacks and Breaches In E-Commerce Websites

Analyzing cyber incident data sets is an important method for deepening our understanding of the evolution of the threat situation. This is a relatively new research topic, and many studies remain to be done. In this paper, I reported a statistical analysis of a breach incident data set corresponding to 12 years (2005–2017) of cyber hacking activities that include malware attacks. I shown that, in contrast to the findings reported in the literature, both hacking breach incident inter-arrival times and breach sizes should be modeled by stochastic processes, rather than by distributions because they exhibit autocorrelations. Then, I proposed a particular stochastic process models to, respectively, fit the inter-arrival times and the breach sizes. I also shown that these models can predict the inter-arrival times and the breach sizes. In order to get deeper insights into the evolution of hacking breach incidents, we conduct both qualitative and quantitative trend analyses on the data set. I drew a set of cyber security insights, including that the threat of cyber hacks is indeed getting worse in terms of their frequency, but not in terms of the magnitude of their damage.

The semantics of religious images in the art of the renaissance

Purpose of research is to consider the culture and art of the Renaissance and explore the semantics of religious images of the outlined period. Methodology. The tasks posed in this work led to the use of the following research methods, namely: analysis and synthesis, generalization and systematization of theoretical material, comparison and generalization of the result obtained in the process of studying theoretical material and specialized publications covering this issue. The solution of the tasks was achieved by applying the comparative historical, descriptive, logical and systemic methods. Scientific Novelty. The semantics of biblical images in the works of Renaissance artists are revealed. Conclusions. In the Renaissance, a completely new self-consciousness of a person is formed, among spiritual values, preference is given to the nobility and personal merits of the person. The meaning of life is not laid in the salvation of the soul, but in creativity, self-knowledge, serving humanity, society and not God. God, giving man free will, gave him the right to create his own destiny and determine his place in the world. Since the church of that time still had great power, the basic ideas of artists of that time were embodied in works with a religious theme, but in their painting, there were existing contradictions between the humanistic, deep life content ant traditional religious subjects. The works of the renaissance conveyed the being of the person around whom the biblical painting took place, all this was on one plane.

The research was conducted to increase the students’ listening ability in SMPN 1 Tompobulu, Bantaeng, South Sulawesi.  Listening is one of difficult skills in English so the teachers need to find suitable strategies to improve the students’ listening ability. This researcher used predicting, inferencing, monitoring, and intonation strategy to solve students’ problem in listening skill. Those strategies could increase students’ listening skill in the class. The researcher applied Classroom Action Research. It consisted of two cycles and each cycles consisted of four meetings. The result of the research in the first cycle shown that the students’ achievement and performance were so low. It could be seen from the students’ mean score in the first cycle was 65.71. The highest score in the first cycle was 90 and only three students who received the highest score. Then, the result of the research in the second cycle showed that the students’ achievement and performance have improved highly. The students’ mean score in the second cycle was 90.47 where the highest score in the second cycle was 100, this score were receieved by eleven students. Based on the data above, the researcher concluded that those strategies could increase the students’ ability in listening
Greetings or Information Exchange in Ewe Community

This paper looked at greetings or information exchange in Ewe Community using Dell Hymes concept of Ethnography of SPEAKING with specific interest to speech situation, speech Act, and speech Event. It has been found that the Ewes have different kinds of greetings depending on the time and the situation. It has been also found that there are various norms and rules that accompanied the various types of greetings. For instance, when a younger person is greeting the adult the younger person must bend down to show respect. In some greetings to the relationship between the two interlocutors determine whether the greeting should go into detail. Again, the situation also calls for the kind of greeting that should be employed for instance if the two people who are involved are in hurry going to some place the casual greeting is the preferred choice.
Towards Optimally Efficient Tree Search with Deep Temporal Difference Learning.

This paper investigates the classical integer least-squares problem whichestimates integer signals from linear models. The problem is NP-hard and oftenarises in diverse applications such as signal processing, bioinformatics,communications and machine learning, to name a few. Since the existing optimalsearch strategies involve prohibitive complexities, they are hard to be adoptedin large-scale problems. To address this issue, we propose a generalhyper-accelerated tree search (HATS) algorithm by employing a deep neuralnetwork to estimate the optimal heuristic for the underlying simplifiedmemory-bounded A* algorithm, and the proposed algorithm can be easilygeneralized with other heuristic search algorithms. Inspired by the temporaldifference learning, we further propose a training strategy which enables thenetwork to approach the optimal heuristic precisely and consistently, thus theproposed algorithm can reach nearly the optimal efficiency when the estimationerror is small enough. Experiments show that the proposed algorithm can reachalmost the optimal maximum likelihood estimate performance in large-scaleproblems, with a very low complexity in both time and space.

Intellectual of peasant origin Ivan Golyshev and Ivan Sytin: book publishing and educational activities

In the second half of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, a lot was done in the field of educating the population of the Russian Empire and introducing it to reading. The reforms of Alexander II gave an additional impetus to the development of book publishing in the Russian province. This article is devoted to two bright representatives of the intelligentsia, natives of the peasantry of the Upper Volga region, I. A. Golyshev and I. D. Sytin. Evidently, I. D. Sytin stands alone among the representatives of the peasantry of the Kostroma province. He was the greatest pre-revolutionary book publisher of the Russian Empire. A peasant from the settlement of Mstera I. A. Golyshev also made a significant contribution to the book publishing business of Russia, but in the Upper Volga region. Both of them day after day, to the best of their abilities, made everything that depended on them, so that a book, a newspaper, a magazine could become closer to the average citizen and villager. The article demonstrates the desire of I. A. Golyshev and I. D. Sytin to make as many ordinary city and village residents as possible prefer addressing the printed word rather than spending time idly (often abusing alcohol). Thanks to the activities of such ascetic educators (cultural traders), the scope of influence of printed materials on the ordinary population of the Russian Empire has expanded. In general, book publishing and educational activities of the characters of this article did not go beyond the dominant ideology of tsarist Russia, based on the famous triad by S. S. Uvarov — «Orthodoxy — Autocracy — Nationality».
