Gaze Estimation Based on Convolutional Structure and Sliding Window-Based Attention Mechanism

The direction of human gaze is an important indicator of human behavior, reflecting the level of attention and cognitive state towards various visual stimuli in the environment. Convolutional neural networks have achieved good performance in gaze estimation tasks, but their global modeling capability is limited, making it difficult to further improve prediction performance. In recent years, transformer models have been introduced for gaze estimation and have achieved state-of-the-art performance. However, their slicing-and-mapping mechanism for processing local image patches can compromise local spatial information. Moreover, the single down-sampling rate and fixed-size tokens are not suitable for multiscale feature learning in gaze estimation tasks. To overcome these limitations, this study introduces a Swin Transformer for gaze estimation and designs two network architectures: a pure Swin Transformer gaze estimation model (SwinT-GE) and a hybrid gaze estimation model that combines convolutional structures with SwinT-GE (Res-Swin-GE). SwinT-GE uses the tiny version of the Swin Transformer for gaze estimation. Res-Swin-GE replaces the slicing-and-mapping mechanism of SwinT-GE with convolutional structures. Experimental results demonstrate that Res-Swin-GE significantly outperforms SwinT-GE, exhibiting strong competitiveness on the MpiiFaceGaze dataset and achieving a 7.5% performance improvement over existing state-of-the-art methods on the Eyediap dataset.
Knowledge-Fusion-Based Iterative Graph Structure Learning Framework for Implicit Sentiment Identification

Implicit sentiment identification is a significant classical task in text analysis. Graph neural networks (GNNs) have recently been successful in implicit sentiment identification, but the current approaches still suffer from two problems. On the one hand, there is a lack of structural information carried by the single-view graph structure of implicit sentiment texts to accurately capture obscure sentiment expressions. On the other hand, the predefined fixed graph structure may contain some noisy edges that cannot represent semantic information using an accurate topology, which can seriously impair the performance of implicit sentiment analysis. To address these problems, we introduce a knowledge-fusion-based iterative graph structure learning framework (KIG). Specifically, for the first problem, KIG constructs graph structures based on three views, namely, co-occurrence statistics, cosine similarity, and syntactic dependency trees through prior knowledge, which provides rich multi-source information for implicit sentiment analysis and facilitates the capture of implicit obscure sentiment expressions. To address the second problem, KIG innovatively iterates the three original graph structures and searches for their implicit graph structures to better fit the data themselves to optimize the downstream implicit sentiment analysis task. We compared our method with the mainstream implicit sentiment identification methods on two publicly available datasets, and ours outperformed both benchmark models. The accuracy, recall, and F1 values of KIG on the Pun of the Day dataset reached 89.2%, 93.7%, and 91.1%, respectively. Extensive experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our proposed method for the implicit sentiment identification task.
The discovery and characterization of handaxes in the Baise Basin, China - with a focus on the Fengshudao site

This paper collates information on the current status of investigations and related handaxes in the Baise Basin over the last 50 years, focusing on the Fengshudao site, through a metrological analysis of handaxes Type,Shape, size, lithology and other attributes) and other areas (other sites in the Baise Basin, the Luonan Basin, the Imjin/Hantan River Basins , the Geum River Basin, the Yeongsan River Basin, the Acheulian handaxes in the western Old World) for comparative analysis and to understand their nature.&#x0D; The Baise handaxe belongs to the pebble industry in southern China. Because its cultural attributes include Acheulean technology, it occupies a pivotal position in the pebble culture of southern China and Asia. From its discovery in the early 1970s to the present, in the past 50 years, relevant investigations and research have achieved scientific research results, which have attracted widespread attention from the international academic community. Therefore, Chinese academic circles have also begun to discuss the ‘Movius line’. At present, there are 41 sites containing handaxes in the Baise Basin, and a total of 499 handaxes have been found. Among them, 11 were excavated from strata, and the rest were collected from the surface.&#x0D; The Fengshudao handaxes were basically made from large flakes and pebbles, with three types of stone: sandstone, quartzite and igneous rock. The sandstone is the most abundant and has the most stable ‘broadness’(B/L) and ‘flatness’(Th/B). According to the results of the metrological analysis, the ‘broadness’ (B/L) and ‘flatness’ (Th/B) indices of the Fengshudao handaxes are relatively high, and the ‘Pointness’ (B1/B2) index is relatively low. A comparison with other sites in the Baise Basin, the Luonan Basin, the Imjin/Hantan River Basins , the Geum River Basin, the Yeongsan River Basin, the Acheulian handaxes in the western Old World Acheulean handaxe shows that the Fengshudao handaxe is broader, thicker and has a more pointed base. In terms of industrial assemblages, handaxes and picks are common forms of assemblage in the Baise Basin, while Cleavers are rare, which is a clear difference from the Acheulian industry of the western Old World.
Implementation of System Digitalization in Payment and Deposit of Non-Tax Revenue from Minerals and Coal Resources

State revenue consists of three components, namely tax revenue, non-tax state revenue, and grants. The Financial Report of the Central Government Financial Supervisory Agency (audited) for Fiscal Year 2019, shows a contribution of Non-Tax State Revenue of 20.8 percent of total state revenue, so Non-Tax State Revenue is a significant component of state revenue to finance state spending that is not sufficiently financed from tax and grant receipts. In order to optimize the management of Non-Tax State Revenue, in 2014 an accurate, fast, and accountable, web-based (integrated) information system was introduced to support the management of Non-Tax State Revenue known as the Online Non-Tax State Revenue Information System (“SIMPONI”). However, for Non-Tax State Revenues for Natural Resources specifically for minerals and coal, there is still potential for improvement in terms of accountability and accuracy of calculations, so in 2019 a special information system was introduced for Non-Tax State Revenues for Natural Resources specifically for minerals and coal called “e-PNBP Minerba” integrated with “SIMPONI”.
Performance Indicator of Diskominfo XYZ City Based on IT Balanced Scorecard

In managing the government, XYZ City is assisted by the Department of Communication and Information (Diskominfo) whose function is to formulate technical policies in the fields of communication, informatics, and public relations. XYZ city performance results are reported annually in the Government Agency Performance Accountability Report (LAKIP). In the 2020 LAKIP, it was still found that the formulation of performance indicators was not relevant to the goals/targets to be achieved, and it was also found that performance indicators were not clear how to be measured. In addition, there is a discrepancy between the formulation of the document performance indicators and the performance indicators in the e-SAKIP application. Because it is related to the application, this is the domain of the Diskominfo XYZ City. This study aims to produce a design of performance indicators both at the Diskominfo XYZ City and each field in the Diskominfo XYZ City using the IT Balanced Scorecard approach that has been adopted by COBIT with the term COBIT Goals Cascade. This research produces Enterprise goals, IT-Related Goals, and KPIs for each strategic target in each IT field at the Diskominfo XYZ City.
ISNI: An Identifier for all Researchers and Research Sector Organizations

<p class="first" id="d19412783e64">This poster explains how the International Standard Name Identifier (ISNI) – an ISO standard – interacts with other research sector identifiers (including ORCIDs, Ringgold, ROR, CrossRef, etc.) in its capacity as a bridging identifier and a critical component in Linked Data and Semantic Web applications. The poster addresses the benefits of ISNIs for researchers, academic and scholarly publishers, institutions, repositories, and more – touching on ISNI’s centrally curated database, its direct data contributors, its data recipients, and the ISNI standard’s data quality processes which enrich the ISNI database and help to ensure that ISNI records continue to maintain cross-domain links with other prominent research sector standards. This is an especially timely topic for researchers and those working in the research sector owing to a recent announcement from the White House’s Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), which has brought the use of identifiers in scholarly and research workflows to the fore. This poster shows not only the importance of using identifiers in the research sector, but the strength and quality of the data when standards work together.
Implementing ISO 9126 in Quality Testing for Information Systems for Menu Ordering Using QR Codes in Panongkrongan Shop

Panongkrongan Shop is a business that emphasizes the quality of its service. The limited number of employees serving customers has an impact on services that are not optimal, such as ordering errors, delays in ordering menus, price discrepancies because prices are not updated on the menu, transaction errors, and are also prone to loss of order data because the recording is still done manually. A menu ordering system can be built to reduce this problem. However, in its use, the system must be of good quality to support the store's operational activities. The poor quality of the system can cause errors so that those who use it can experience financial losses. For this reason, it is necessary to develop a quality measurement system to run correctly and meet ISO 9126 quality standards. Based on the test results, the system meets ISO 9126 standards with a total score of 91.9% with a functionality aspect of 95.3%, reliability of 83.7%, usability of 93.5%, efficiency of 89.0%, and portability of 98%. Improvements are needed in the reliability aspect, namely in maturity and fault tolerance, so that the system can be even better in terms of quality for error handling and maturity.
Ukrainian Archival Metadata in WorldCat: Exploratory Analysis

The purpose of metadata is to enable information users to find, identify, select, obtain, and explore information resources. The largest global database of machine-readable bibliographic metadata, WorldCat includes over 500 million records that represent information resources in 483 languages. While most of these records describe individual officially published or released materials (print and electronic books and journals, VHS, CD, and DVD releases of documentary and feature films, officially distributed audio albums of songs and instrumental music), over 2.3 million of metadata records included in WorldCat represent archival materials of various kinds. Our study examined a sample of WorldCat records representing Ukrainian-language archival materials (including digital resources) that were not officially published or released with the goal to examine the extent to which these metadata records support the user tasks of find, identify, select, obtain, and explore.

Speech acts and the communicative functions of emojis in LIHKG online discussion forum amid COVID-19

Since the beginning of 2022, the Hong Kong government has imposed strict social distancing measures and changed its stance on various regional policies with the aim to contain the so-called ‘fifth wave’ of COVID-19. In these pandemic and ‘infodemic’ times filled with uncertainty and fear, Hong Kong netizens used local online discussion forums as a resource to establish an innovative form of ‘helping network.’ This study is based on 230 posts from a popular local online discussion forum ‘LIHKG’ in February 2022 when the pandemic was regarded as most critical by the Department of Health. Speech Acts theoretic approach was adopted to explore how forum users employed speech acts to perform various communicative practices such as expressing concerns, asking for information, and engaging with others in a CMC environment amid a global health crisis. Representatives were found to be the most dominant text-based speech acts, followed by directives, expressives and commissives. Speech acts provide forum users a context in which emoji usage occurs. Forum users not only make use of words to ‘do’ things in the online self-help forum, but they also employ emojis to either supplement or complement speech acts. This study also shows that emojis perform multiple functions in the discussion posts and argues that they do not merely function as emotion indicators of their textual company, but also carry significant pragmatic meanings by illustrating how they can also carry illocutionary force and in some cases, even alter the illocutionary force of their preceding texts. The findings of this study enhance our understanding of how forum users communicate via verbal and nonverbal means within the underexplored ‘helping domain’ of online discussion forums. It also suggests that online discussion forum interactions need to be approached differently than other better understood alternatives.

Summary Report APE 2023, 10–12 January, Berlin, Germany Berlin Re-Visited: Building Technological Support for Scholarship and Scientific Publishing

This paper summarizes the 18th Academic Publishing in Europe (APE) Conference: Berlin Re-Visited: Building Technological Support for Scholarship and Scientific Publishing, held as a hybrid event 10 and 11 January 2023, and organized by the Berlin Institute of Scholarly Publishing (BISP), a not-for-profit organization dedicated to bringing publishers, researchers, funders, and policymakers together. This year’s conference theme “Out with the old, in with the new!” was discussed and presented in keynote speeches, the APE lecture, and several panel discussions. Current challenges within scholarly publishing, e.g., with research integrity, trust, and research assessment, have much to do with the old ways of doing things. To move science forward, new technologies and innovations, like the decentralized web, FAIR digital objects, and blockchain technology are needed to shape new paradigms. In many sessions it was stressed that not just new technologies are needed to move science forward, but human collaboration and partnerships as well. The changing role of the journal and the importance to recognize more diverse research outputs, beyond the journal article, was a topic of importance. Not only research assessment reforms and improved collaboration amongst different stakeholder groups are needed to address this, new publishing systems, better metadata, and open infrastructures as well. A session presenting different start-ups showcased how Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing and software technology can be used to tackle problems in e.g., finding relevant funders and peer reviewers, and detecting image plagiarism. It was also discussed what publishers can do to help achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. Collaboration, data transparency and sharing best practices amongst researchers, funders, and policy makers are key. Another important topic during this year’s APE was how publishers can support Early Career Researchers: establishing new workflows and infrastructures that enable publication of a wider range of research outputs, and broader recognition of these outputs, will incentivize ECRs. This year’s APE was concluded with the APE Award Ceremony. The winner - Vsevolod Solovyov from Prophy - has used AI to enhance the current peer review system and made a very important contribution to improving the scholarly communication system.
Enhancing the Believability of Character Behaviors Using Non-Verbal Cues

Characters are vital to large video game worlds as they bring a sense of life to the world. However, background characters are known to rarely exhibit any sign of motivated behavior or emotional state. We want to change this by assigning these characters emotions that can be identified through their non-verbal behavior. We feel the addition of emotion will allow players to feel more connected to the game world and make the game world more believable. This paper presents the results of an experiment to test two ways of conveying emotion: 1) through a character's gait and 2) through a character's interactions with the game world. Results from the experiment suggest that a combination of gait and interactions is the most effective method to convey emotion.
Incorporating Human Relationships Into Path Planning

While pathfinding is ubiquitous in games, it is most often abstracted away fromeverything else that is going on in the game and viewed as a simple point-to-pointshortest path problem. The notable exception to this is work on tactical pathfinding.Tactical pathfinding incorporates tactical elements, most often for battle simulations,into the pathfinding engine in order to improve high-level behavior. This paper looksat how the relationship between characters in a game should influence the pathsthat are taken through the game. We suggest a simple model of character relationshipsand show how this can be used to influence the paths that are taken through theworld. Finally, we discuss design-related issues of how this could be incorporatedinto games.
Expectations on Swedish Rescue Archaeology: fertile circles, the courage not to know, and texts with meaning

This paper discusses some general problems within Swedish rescue archaeology. In order to illustrate these problems, more or less recognizable negative states are contrasted with positive expectations. Vicious circles, prohibiting critical evaluation and discussion, are contrasted with ”fertile circles", promoting an intellectual and creative archaeology. The comfortable and stagnant search for "known" and easily categorized features and objects is contrasted with the courage to actively focus on problematic features and relations. Finally, archaeological reports that are anxiously occupied with numbers and descriptive "facts", while avoiding subjective reflexions and interpretations, are contrasted with reports communicating meaning, interpretations and evaluations.
Type System Based Rational Lazy IDA*

Meta-reasoning can improve numerous search algorithms, but necessitates collection of statistics to be used as probability distributions, and involves restrictive meta-reasoning assumptions. The recently suggested scheme of type systems in search algorithms is used in this paper for collecting these statistics. The statistics are then used to better estimate the unknown quantity of expected regret of computing a heuristic in Rational Lazy IDA* (RLIDA*), and also facilitate a second improvement due to relaxing one of the unrealistic meta-reasoning assumptions in RLIDA*.
