CHARACTERISTICS OF THE CONCEPTUAL FIELD OF STUDYING THE ISSUE ON DEVELOPING INTERNET TECHNOLOGIES OF SCIENTIFIC-PEDAGOGICAL COMMUNICATION IN UKRAINE (THE OF END THE 20TH CENTURY – THE BEGINNING OF THE 21ST CENTURY)

In pedagogical science and education, as in any other field of human activities, new telecommunication technologies have become widespread in the last decade.Along with traditional means of scientific and pedagogical communication, such as scientific pedagogical periodicals, scientific pedagogical conferences, under the conditions of development of information and communication technologies, new means of scientific-pedagogical communication are emerging, which are developing in the electronic environment.The end of the 20 th century left to the descendants a glorious pedagogical heritage, which can be the basis for the further progress of the national pedagogical science under the conditions of increasing requirements for scientific works in the field of pedagogy and research culture of pedagogues, spreading modern means and technologies of scientific-pedagogical science.The popularity of using the Internet technologies in education is due primarily to the didactic properties of the World Wide Web: publication of educational-methodological information in hypermedia, pedagogical communication in real time between subjects and objects of the educational process, as well as open access in time and space to information resources.One of the important directions of development of educational informatization is the new computer technologies.Interactivity, intensification of the educational process, feedback are notable advantages of these technologies, which have led to the need for their being applied in various fields of human activity, especially those related to education and vocational training.Nowadays, the number of studies that have focused on using information and communication technologies in the educational process has grown significantly.This topic in Ukraine is investigated in the works of such
Learning from multi-domain artistic images for arbitrary style transfer

We propose a fast feed-forward network for arbitrary style transfer, which can generate stylized image for previously unseen content and style image pairs. Besides the traditional content and style representation based on deep features and statistics for textures, we use adversarial networks to regularize the generation of stylized images. Our adversarial network learns the intrinsic property of image styles from large-scale multi-domain artistic images. The adversarial training is challenging because both the input and output of our generator are diverse multi-domain images. We use a conditional generator that stylized content by shifting the statistics of deep features, and a conditional discriminator based on the coarse category of styles. Moreover, we propose a mask module to spatially decide the stylization level and stabilize adversarial training by avoiding mode collapse. As a side effect, our trained discriminator can be applied to rank and select representative stylized images. We qualitatively and quantitatively evaluate the proposed method, and compare with recent style transfer methods. We release our code and model at https://github.com/nightldj/behance_release.
A Patch Ordering Approach to Single Image Super-resolution Problem

In this paper, we propose a novel patch ordering approach to single image super-resolution (SR) algorithm which is called as patch ordering approach to single image super resolution (POSR). We aimed at selecting more informative high-resolution (HR) and low-resolution (LR) patches for single image SR algorithms based on sparse representation and dictionary learning. Our proposed POSR algorithm, first ordered HR and LR patches for each training images based on minimization of total variation measure (TV). Then, it assigned a sampling step for patch selection in each image. In this way, training patches were extracted based on image texture complexity. This leads to training dictionaries with the high and low resolution more efficiently. Unlike other methods which have used additional restrictions in high resolution image reconstruction phase, the proposed method, has only used the basic assumption of sparse representation super resolution. The experimental results for quantitative criteria (PSNR, RMSE, SSIM and elapsed time), human observation as a qualitative measure and computational complexity verify the improvements offered by the proposed POSR algorithm.

A1_11 The Littlest League

In this paper, we investigated quantum tunnelling by replacing the batter with a potential barrier in a baseball game. We found that the width of a potential barrier that represents a batter needs to be between 1.57*10^-36 m and 1.41*10^-36 m in order for the transmission probability of a baseball through the potential barrier to equal the strike rate of Major League Baseball (MLB) pitchers of 62% to 65%. Considering these values are smaller than the Planck length, it is therefore physically impossible to replicate the observed MLB strike rates with the potential barrier we used.
Extraction of Volitional Utterances from Japanese Local Political Corpus

In this paper, we propose a new method for extracting utterances expressing opinions and will from Japanese political corpus. Recently, many local autonomies in Japan provide on their Web sites various political documents such as basic plans of urban development, local assembly minutes or ordinances. These documents include utterances expressing opinions and will. If we can extract such utterances, voters can know who has what kind of opinion, and it will be useful for selecting candidates at the time of the election. Also, if such as utterances can be extracted from past local assembly minutes, it is also possible to investigate whether some countermeasure was taken against that opinion. Therefore, we develop a method for extracting utterances expressing opinions and will by using Japanese political corpus.

The main aim of this study is to develop an application which will be able to load DICOM images, segment a tumor on brain slices and create a three-dimensional model of the segmented tumor. Firstly, we present two algorithms - depth first search method (DFS) and active contours method, for brain tumor segmentation and compare their performance. Comparison of effectiveness of these two proposed algorithms included discussing parameters complexity of initial conditions that need to be set manually, accuracy of the segmented tumor surface area, and computational time. Described methodology was tested on computerized tomography (CT) medical images from 37 patients using two different algorithms. User-friendly application for tumor segmentation on two-dimensional images and three-dimensional visualization is developed in Java. Presented application and results can be used as assistance tools in cases of surgeries, but can also be helpful in brain tumor treatment.
Study of information security, risk, audit and the role of law in Sri Lankan perspective

2010 was named as the Information Technology year in Sri Lanka. Our main attention was focused on whether our systems supported by Information Technology (IT) were safe from attacks. With the expansion of Information Technology most of the Sri Lankan organizations were driven by computerized information systems. With the vital role played by the Information Technology for its users it offers not only the benefits but also unchallengeable threats. These threats came in many forms such as data sabotage, destruction of systems and hacking offences. To address this issue both the IT professionals as well as the legal experts had come with their own solutions from time to time. The role played by the Information Technology Audit was focused through this paper. Through IT Audit the possible attacks to the systems could be identified. The role played by the legal experts in this regard was enacting the most recent Computer Crimes Act No 24 of 2007 which enable to bring security violators to the law. The research methodology adopted by this research was checking 75 information systems of Sri Lanka by a validated questionnaire. The questionnaire was presented to the system users and the feedback from them was taken as the results of this study. IT Audit also could be used as an evaluation tool in a research like this although this study limited its scope to adopt sampling method through questionnaire since the data was highly confidential. The findings were analyzed in order to come for conclusion which satisfied the implemented security level in information systems which were reviewed. Overall security of the information systems was satisfactory in terms of physical, logical and network security. Approaches that could be taken when a breach of security was there in terms of legal measures were also come under review.
Does Commercial Banking Activities Exerts on Agricultural Growth in Nigeria? Evidence from ARDL Framework

The current study examined the Impact of commercial bank loan activities on Nigeria's agricultural productivity with a focus on the impact of the agricultural sector credit guarantee scheme fund, commercial Bank credits to agricultural output, interest rate and the government recurrent expenditure on the agriculture sector. We employed the newly developed augmented regressive distributed lag to examine whether or not commercial lending activities enhances productivity. Our results shows that though a positive relationship exist between agricultural output and each of agricultural sector credit guarantee scheme fund and the government recurrent expenditure on the agriculture sector, the relationship is not significant. The result also shows that a positive but not significant relationship exists between commercial Bank credits to agricultural output, and that a negative but significant relationship exists between interest rate and agriculture output. The implication is that increase in commercial bank lending has not been able to induce positive growth in the agricultural output in Nigeria. Our results provoke insights thinking on the role of commercial banking activities in advancing agriculture in Nigeria.

"FORMATION OF EXPERIMENTAL COMPETENCES OF PHYSICAL STUDENTS ON THE BASIS OF A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH"

The article deals with a systematic approach to the formation of students' experimental competence. The problems of implementation of cross-curricular relations in the system of subjects of the natural-mathematical cycle are analyzed. The technique of development of experimental competence of high school students is offered. The effectiveness of gradual and purposeful formation of experimental competence in the system of natural and mathematical disciplines with a focus on the higher level of knowledge, when students independently perform all the operations and actions related to independent formulation of experiments, is proved. Formation of experimental competence is possible when all teachers are aware of the necessity of its gradual formation under conditions of realization of possibilities of cross-curricular relations of physics with other natural-mathematical disciplines in lessons and in extra-curricular activities. This allows further graduates to independently carry out any experiences they may need to study in higher education institutions and in practiceKey words: experimental competence, educational experiment, systematic approach, natural and mathematical disciplines.
