Adaptation, Comparison, and Improvement of Metaheuristic Algorithms to the Part-of-Speech Tagging Problem

Part-of-Speech Tagging (POST) is a complex task in the preprocessing of Natural Language Processing applications. Tagging has been tackled from statistical information and rule-based approaches, making use of a range of methods. Most recently, metaheuristic algorithms have gained attention while being used in a wide variety of knowledge areas, with good results. As a result, they were deployed in this research in a POST problem to assign the best sequence of tags (roles) for the words of a sentence based on information statistics. This process was carried out in two cycles, each of them comprised four phases, allowing the adaptation to the tagging problem in metaheuristic algorithms such as Particle Swarm Optimization, Jaya, Random-Restart Hill Climbing, and a memetic algorithm based on Global-Best Harmony Search as a global optimizer, and on Hill Climbing as a local optimizer. In the consolidation of each algorithm, preliminary experiments were carried out (using cross-validation) to adjust the parameters of each algorithm and, thus, evaluate them on the datasets of the complete tagged corpus: IULA (Spanish), Brown (English) and Nasa Yuwe (Nasa). The results obtained by the proposed taggers were compared, and the Friedman and Wilcoxon statistical tests were applied, confirming that the proposed memetic, GBHS Tagger, obtained better results in precision. The proposed taggers make an important contribution to POST for traditional languages (English and Spanish), non-traditional languages (Nasa Yuwe), and their application areas.

The framework provides the output utilizing a hash coding classifiers which predict the image from the database of the images. The images are classified on a global level with the help of multiple low-level features.
Influence of Blockchain in the Real Estate Sector : In wich stage of buying process of commercial real estate can Blockchain provide added value for the stakeholders involved?

International Journal of Applied Sciences, no. 2, 2019 CC-BYThe two primary characteristics of real estate assets are their heterogeneity and immobility. Because of these two factors, the market for buying real estate tends to be illiquid, localized and highly segmented, with privately negotiated transactions and high transaction costs due to the involvement of a vast amount of trusted third parties (Ling & Archer, 2013).Because of these characteristics, and the opportunities Blockchain offers, the buying process of commercial real estate, and the involved stakeholders could be affected majorly by this technological phenomena. The lack of transparency, high transaction costs and the need for digitalization in commercial real estate companies give Blockchain its game-changing potential. The results have shown that the pre-marketing phase and due diligence phase are most suitable for the implementation of Blockchain. This due to the characteristics of the phases, characteristics of the stakeholders and the characteristics of Blockchain.The main aspect here can be focused on the added value of Blockchain as a data sharing program which could add value creating a more safe and secure way of sharing data. What should be mentioned is that the technology is in an early stage of development and therefore not (yet) suitable for the implementation in the real estate sector. Although multiple pilots and user cases could be mentioned, the technology needs to overcome some obstacles to be a beter success in the current buying process of commercial real estate.
”Jag skiter i vad som är ont eller gott. Jag försöker bara vara trogen mot det som är jag.” : En undersökning av skräckellitteraturen och en utvärdering av genreteori i klassifikatoriska syften

Annotating Croatian Semantic Type Coercions in CROATPAS

This short research paper presents the results of a corpus-based metonymy annotation exercise on a sample of 101 Croatian verb entries – corresponding to 457 patters and over 20,000 corpus lines – taken from CROATPAS (Marini & Ježek, 2019), a digital repository of verb argument structures manually annotated with Semantic Type labels on their argument slots following a methodology inspired by Corpus Pattern Analysis (Hanks, 2004 & 2013; Hanks & Pustejovsky, 2005). CROATPAS will be made available online in 2020. Semantic Type labelling is not only well-suited to annotate verbal polysemy, but also metonymic shifts in verb argument combinations, which in Generative Lexicon (Pustejovsky, 1995 & 1998; Pustejovsky & Ježek, 2008) are called Semantic Type coercions. From a sub lexical point of view, Semantic Type coercions can be considered as exploitations of one of the qualia roles of those Semantic Types which do not satisfy a verb’s selectional requirements, but do not trigger a different verb sense. Overall, we were able to identify 62 different Semantic Type coercions linked to 1,052 metonymic corpus lines. In the future, we plan to compare our results with those from an equivalent study on Italian verbs (Romani, 2020) for a crosslinguistic analysis of metonymic shifts.
THE EFEKTIVITAS PEMBERIAN KARTU YU-SB (YUGIOH SAYUR BUAH) SEBAGAI MEDIA PENINGKATAN PENGETAHUAN SAYUR DAN BUAH SISWA SEKOLAH DASAR

Background: Consumption of vegetables and fruit is still quite low, at the age of elementary school children is very difficult to be able to eat foods needed for growth. Consumption behavior of vegetables and fruits has a significant relationship one of them with nutritional knowledge, to be able to increase knowledge about nutrition can be done through the process of nutrition counseling. The media needs to be used to increase the target's interest in absorbing information such as YU-SB cards and leaflets.Objective: The purpose of this research was to determine the effectiveness of giving YU-SB cards compared to leaflets as a medium to increase vegetable and fruit knowledge in elementary school students.Method: This type of research is a quasi experiment using pre-posttest with control group design. The research was conducted in January to February 2020. The method of determining the location of the study was carried out by means of purposive sampling, selected fourth grade students of SDN Ngijon I (as a group of YU-SB cards) and fourth grade students of Pendulan SDN (as leaflet groups).Results: The results of the pretest test were not significant p = 0.261 indicating that the initial knowledge of the two groups was the same, the average pretest for the YU-SB card group was 56.50 and the leaflet group was 59.17. The posttest results (p = 0.648) were not statistically significant, but there was a difference in knowledge between the YU-SB card group and leaflets on the posttest results when viewed from an increase in the mean value. The average post-test for the YU-SB card group is 75.00 and the leaflet group is 76.33. There was a significant difference in knowledge before and after counseling with the YU-SB card (p = 0,000) and counseling with leaflets (p = 0,000).Conclusion: The YU-SB card is more effective compared to leaflets as a medium for increasing elementary school students' vegetable and fruit knowledge.Keywords: Media, knowledge of vegetables and fruit, YU-SB card, leaflet
Planners’ Perception of Using Virtual Reality Technology in Tourism Planning

Virtual reality (VR) technology has provided a new way for tourism planning and design. It not only allows planners to better implement tourism planning, but also enables tourists to experience the charm of tourist destinations or attractions on a deeper level. However, research on planners’ perception of using VR in tourism planning is still in the early stages. Based on the Technology Acceptance Model, this study conducted a depth interview with five senior tourism planners in China to explore factors that influence VR application in tourism planning. The results show that five factors have important influences on VR acceptance, including perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, perceived cost, perceived enjoyment and perceived immersion. Among them, the first three factors can be summarized as a technical support dimension, and the last two as an emotional feedback dimension. The results provide insights for improving tourists’ virtual experience by using VR technology in tourism planning.
Do Platforms Kill

Terror kills, inciting words can kill, but what about online platforms? In recent years, social networks have turned into a new arena for incitement. Terror organizations operate active accounts on social networks. They incite, recruit, and plan terror attacks by using online platforms. These activities pose a serious threat to public safety and security. Online intermediaries, such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and others provide online platforms that make it easier for terrorists to meet and proliferate in ways that were not dreamed of before. Thus, terrorists are able to cluster, exchange ideas, and promote extremism and polarization. In such an environment, do platforms that host inciting content bear any liability? What about intermediaries operating internet platforms that direct extremist and unlawful content at susceptible users, who, in turn, engage in terrorist activities? Should intermediaries bear civil liability for algorithm-based recommendations on content, connections, and advertisements? Should algorithmic targeting enjoy the same protections as traditional speech? This Article analyzes intermediaries’ civil liability for terror attacks under the anti-terror statutes and other doctrines in tort law. It aims to contribute to the literature in several ways. First, it outlines the way intermediaries aid terrorist activities either willingly or unwittingly. By identifying the role online intermediaries play in terrorist activities, one may lay down the first step towards creating a legal policy that would mitigate the harm caused by terrorists’ incitement over the internet. Second, this Article outlines a minimum standard of civil liability that should be imposed on intermediaries for speech made by terrorists on their platforms. Third, it highlights the contradictions between intermediaries’ policies regarding harmful content and the technologies that create personalized experiences for users, which can sometimes recommend unlawful content and connections. This Article proposes the imposition of a duty on intermediaries that would incentivize them to avoid the creation of unreasonable risks caused by personalized algorithmic targeting of unlawful messages. This goal can be achieved by implementing effective measures at the design stage of a platform’s algorithmic code. Subsequently, this Article proposes remedies and sanctions under tort, criminal, and civil law while balancing freedom of speech, efficiency, and the promotion of innovation. The Article concludes with a discussion of complementary approaches that intermediaries may take for voluntarily mitigating terrorists’ harm.
Mutant Density

Software code complexity is a well-studied property to determine software component health. However, the existing code complexity metrics do not directly take into account the fault-proneness aspect of the code. We propose a metric called mutant density where we use mutation as a method to introduce artificial faults in code, and count the number of possible mutations per line. We show how this metric can be used to perform helpful analysis of real-life software projects.
A compreensão dos pais acerca de questões relacionadas à obesidade dos filhos

The purpose of this study was to identify parents' comprehension of their children's obesity. This is a qualitative field research, since it identified subjective aspects of parents in relation to their obese child. Six mothers of children diagnosed with obesity, found by accessibility, participated in the research. A semi-structured interview was used as a data collection instrument. The results allow us to affirm that in relation to knowledge about obesity, family and genetic influences were considered by the interviewees as auxiliaries in the leanings of the development of obesity. They also face difficulties in managing family, food and social organization in view of obesity, which means, they are concerned with post-diagnosis situations and circumstances, not only health issues, but also the social aspects involved, such as bullying (point of attention shown by parents). However, no preventive behaviors were presented, only resolution of possible health problems and eating behavior, not considering a psychological treatment as a parallel intervention. Parents are therefore considered to be concerned but they do not have enough information to deal with the situation.

Oracle REST Data Services

Since the dawn of distributed computing, there have been many different protocols designed to help disparate systems communicate and interoperate. Some were proprietary, while others were developed through industrial standards bodies. The latter are programming language agnostic but are often slow to develop as they generally consist of members that are otherwise competitors. Older protocols involved heavy use of markup languages, and many popular frameworks required developers to generate client stubs for marshaling data.
Propuesta de un plan formativo en competencias críticas mediante el uso de Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TIC) para El Centro Educativo SCALAS

This research presents a proposal on the approach of a training model that allows the development of multiple skills and abilities through the use of Technologies of Information and Comunication (TIC). The plan has as a fundamental basis the structuring of the critical and reflexive thinking of the tenth grade students of a private institution in the city of Bogota, known as Centro Educativo SCALAS. The model includes in its structure six modules that cover topics from personal development, recognition of the environment in which the student lives, to health of his body, the development of innovation, the potential of creativity, content design , entrepreneurship, leadership and the use of technologies, the above in order to guide them in the new world of the Information and Knowledge Society (SIC).
A Mehrotra-Type Infeasible Arc-Search Algorithm for LP

Chapter 7 addresses the concerns of some peer researchers onthe algorithms reported in Chapters 5 and 6 which have not demonstrated the comparable efficiency to the one enjoyed by Mehrotra'spredictor-corrector algorithm. To show that the arc-search is a better strategy than the line search, an algorithm that mimics Mehrotra'spredictor-corrector algorithm is implemented. The only difference between the two algorithms is that the proposed algorithm uses arc-search and Mehrotra'spredictor-corrector algorithm uses line search. To have a fair comparison, both algorithms are implemented in Matlab, use the same pre-processor and post-processor, start from the same initial point, use the same parameters, and terminate with the same stopping criterion. Since the main cost in computation for both algorithms is to solve linear systems of equations, which is exactly the same for both algorithms, and the arc-search infeasible interior-point algorithm uses less iterations in most tested problems than Mehrotra'spredictor-corrector algorithm, this shows that arc-search infeasible interior-point algorithm is more efficient than Mehrotra'spredictor-corrector algorithm. Beside, the arc-search infeasible interior-point algorithm solves more problems successfully than Mehrotra'spredictor-corrector algorithm, this shows that arc-search infeasible interior-point algorithm is more robust (or stable) than Mehrotra'spredictor-corrector algorithm.

Educación a distancia y aprendizaje personalizado adaptativo

The present work is situated in the field of virtual distance education and more specifically in one of the technologies, whose use has increased exponentially. They are the recommendation systems, which are now used in education as a complementary support in the platforms designed to provide learning resources in a more personalized way. The way in which students perceive, codify, remember, understand and solve problems is different between each one. This task has proved a real challenge, both logistic and theoretical, and the arrival of new information technologies is emerging as the most promising option to project and carry it out. The investigations that have been carried out specifically in the subject show a very marked methodological problem. The way in which its effect has been evaluated, especially in relation to the learning process, has not been from any point of view, rigorous or exhaustive. In general, they only resort to obtaining opinions from students about how they perceive that the use of such systems benefited this process. It seems important to know in greater depth and precision the way in which learning is enhanced with this specific form of technology.
Analisis Forensik Aplikasi Dropbox pada Android menggunakan Metode NIJ pada Kasus Penyembunyian Berkas

Smartphones are a testament to the development of digital technology. At this time, the smartphone is also experiencing growth in storage media, one of which is the Cloud storage media. One cloud storage application is the Dropbox Application. The development of cloud storage media does not rule out the possibility of a negative impact on the use or can be used as a medium for crime, such as storing evidence of criminal transactions and cybercrime. This study uses conversation scenarios for application conditions, including data deletion in applications. Data for each experiment will be taken using the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Method. The method used in dealing with crime with smartphone media evidence is the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Method. The conclusion of this study is that the use of the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) method ranks the digital forensic stages, starting with identification, collection, examination, analysis, and reporting very well. This method is widely used in handling digital crime cases. The results of the acquisition will then be analyzed by translating the hex codes resulting from the acquisition to produce evidence that can be understood by the judge later.

Certifiably secure IoT - [Macro &amp; Micro]

AFTER UNBOXING a new gadget, few people stop to consider how things could go horribly wrong when it's plugged into the wall: A shorted wire could, for example, quickly produce a fire. We trust that our machines will not fail so catastrophically-a trust developed through more than a century of certification processes.
Rehabilitation of Sandy Coastal Areas in Kuala Rompin, Pahang

Abstract After the tsunami incident that hit the coasts of several countries including Southeast Asia in December 2004, effort to protect the coastal areas has been immense. In Malaysia, a committee focusing in rehabilitation of coastal areas were established since 2007 to conduct planting and rehabilitation of coastal areas nationwide. In this study, mixed mangrove associate species namely Callophyllum inophyllum (Bintangor laut), Casuarina equisetifolia (Rhu), Syzygium grandis (Kelat jambu laut), Terminalia catappa (Ketapang) and Fagraea fragrans (Tembusu padang) were planted in Kuala Rompin, Pahang. The main objective of this study is to rehabilitate coastal areas with mixed species. Combinations of organic soil and slow-release fertilizer were applied as part of the improved fertilising technique. The initial growth and survival of saplings planted were measured and data obtained were analyzed using SPSS program. After 17 months of planting, the survival was 66% and Casuarina equisetifolia recorded the highest mean annual increment for height and diameter.
D-euro: issuing the digital trust

Since 2008 new schemes such as digital currencies have emerged in limited forms. Currently, dig-ital technologies enjoy a widespread use in the area of payments and, as a result, central banks have started contemplating the costs and benefits of issuing a digital currency for broad use in payments and settlements. This paper defines Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) and clas-sifies it alongside existing forms of money. Further, it highlights the properties that such a cur-rency should have, and analyses the main motivations behind the potential issuance of an account-based retail CBDC (called here the “d-euro”). We argue that the latter should involve a public-private partnership whose effectiveness will be enhanced by the establishment of separate and distinct roles. This paper briefly discusses legal considerations, monetary policy implications and financial stability issues arising from d-euro. In doing so, it further analyses d-euro’s underly-ing principles, which would at the same time constitute its key benefits. We provide a general framework and propose the technical design of our so called “two-dot model”. Issues concern-ing parity, supply limits and anonymity are dealt with. The proposed technical design seems an effective and workable solution that boosts the autonomy and resilience of the European pay-ment systems. Finally, we argue that the initial introduction of d-euro as a retail payment medium may establish it as the new cash of a digitalised ecosystem, reflecting a new digital trust issued by central banks.
