Exploring the Effect of Cultural Immersion Study Abroad Experiences via Distance Learning on Students' Transformational Leadership and Cultural Competence

In this postmodern world, globalization manifests itself through social and educational mobility, and global interaction among nations via sharing of cultures, languages and literatures pedagogy in the international community through distance learning in higher education. Globalization is meant to achieve the desired productivity in commerce and trade relationships, and to promote effective leadership economically and culturally through promoting formal education among nations in the international community (Norman, 2017). In this perspective, globalization encourages the inclusion of educational programs and strategies such as: cultural immersion study abroad, Fulbright Scholarships (USA), distance learning, etc. in higher education domestically and internationally. Consequently, higher learning institutions in the U.S. actively recruit foreign students (e.g., offering Fulbright Foreign Student scholarships (PAEF, 2015)} via the universities' global engagement programs. Additionally, colleges and universities utilize distance learning as an effective and engaging teaching approach/method out of necessity due to the current pandemic crisis. Furthermore, distance learning (online learning) encourages the development of transformative teaching and leadership approaches and methodologies that address diversity and cultural awareness (Lynch & Hanson, 1992) in classroom instruction in higher education. Good examples of these approaches/methodologies are intercultural and multicultural education, servant teaching, distance learning, etc. which demonstrate students' interactive participation and engagement in the classroom environment via the internet (e.g., Zoom classrooms) across the globe. In this perspective, this reflection seeks to highlight the efficacy of cultural immersion study abroad through distance learning experiences on students' transformational leadership and cultural competence in higher education. To do this, (1) I define and explain the following constructs: a) Globalization, b) cultural & language immersion, and virtual reality immersion, c) study abroad program, d) cultural competence, e) distance learning, f) Fulbright foreign student program, and g) transformational leadership; (2) review relevant literature on the topic; and finally, (3) draw my conclusion in this writing.
Enhancement of low quality blood smear image using contrast and edge corrections

A blood smear is one of the medical images that widely used to disease diagnosis. A low-quality of smear that produced by poor microscopy specification complicates the reading of the feature. The characteristics are blurred, diminished true colour of object, unclear boundary and low contrast between object and background. In this study, we propose new enhancement strategy through edge correction based on dual contrast enhancement to improve the readability of the features in the low quality of blood smear image. Dual contrast enhancement utilises the integration of contrast correction globally and locally, while edge correction uses unsharp masking filtering to improve the object edge. The experiments are performed on three diseases images. The results show that the proposed method achieves best entropy and pretty good on MSE and PSNR, so it can produce images contained more information than the other methods and had a good effectiveness.
Feynman Rules for λϕ4 from the Operator Formalism

Quantum Field Theory provides a theoretical framework for understanding fields and the particles associated with them, and is the basis of particle physics and condensed matter research. This graduate level textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to quantum field theory, giving equal emphasis to operator and path integral formalisms. It covers modern research such as helicity spinors, BCFW construction and generalized unitarity cuts; as well as treating advanced topics including BRST quantization, loop equations, and finite temperature field theory. Various quantum fields are described, including scalar and fermionic fields, Abelian vector fields and Quantum ElectroDynamics (QED), and finally non-Abelian vector fields and Quantum ChromoDynamics (QCD). Applications to scattering cross sections in QED and QCD are also described. Each chapter ends with exercises and an important concepts section, allowing students to identify the key aspects of the chapter and test their understanding.
Optimal genotypic feedback in genetic algorithm : a new optimization approach

&lt;p&gt;Genetic algorithm (GA) is a promising means to solve engineering optimization problems. GA is able to perform the global search with minimal simplifying assumptions about the problem as well as the correcsponding decision space. GA faces problems like premature convergence and slow convergence due to decreasing population diversity. To surmount this problem, we have developed a new approach of optimal genotypic feedback (OGF). This approach generates binary building blocks of random size from the optimal solution after each generation.The blocks are then inserted in the subsequent generation. This new approach is successfully tested on number of nonlinear, multimodal and non-continuous optimization problems. The results demonstrate that the approach efficiently searches good quality solutions.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In the next step, OGF is amagamated with hybrid GA (HGA). The resulting new HGA is applied on six optimization problems involving characterization parameters of pulp chest and miminum variance control. Comparisons with the old HGA indicate the equivalence of OGF with gradient search. Furthermore, the new HGA is observed to yield results in less number of objective function evaluations.&lt;/p&gt;
On system QoE

With Quality of Experience (QoE) research having made significant advances over the years, increased attention is being put on exploiting this knowledge from a service/network provider perspective in the context of the user-centric evaluation of systems. Current research investigates the impact of system/service mechanisms, their implementation or configurations on the service performance and how it affects the corresponding QoE of its users. Prominent examples address adaptive video streaming services, as well as enabling technologies for QoE-aware service management and monitoring, such as SDN/NFV and machine learning.

Improving students' writing performance by using personal photographs in writing Descriptive text at Mts N 12 Tanah Datar

The objectives of this research were to find out whether there is any significant improvement of the students’ writing performance in descriptive texts and to investigate which aspects in writing skills that improve better after the implementation of a personal photograph in writing descriptive texts. The research was quantitative by using one group pre test and post test design. The population of this research was the first grades students of MTs N 12 Tanah Datar in the academic year 2020/2021. The sample of this research was VII F that consisted of 28 students. The instrument of this research was writing test. The results showed that there was a significant improvement of the students’ writing performance after the implementation of a personal photographs in writing descriptive texts. It could be seen from the gain on pretest and posttest score. Based on the data, the mean value obtained in the pre-test was 69.32, while the post-test was 84.43., so mean score increased 15.11, in which t-value&gt;t-table (12.93&gt;2.052) or sig (0.00&lt;0.05). Furthermore, content was one of the aspects in writing skills that improve better after the implementation of a personal photograph in writing descriptive texts. The percentage of this aspect in the pretest was 20.995 while in the post test was 25.37., so the score increased 4.375. As a result, it can be concluded that personal photographs not only improved the students’ writing performance but also all of the aspect of writing skills, because personal photographs can help students in developing their idea in writing descriptive texts. Personal photographs also can make students more active and easier when they want to describe something. Keyword: Personal Photographs, Writing Performance, Descriptive Texts

Enhanced Recommendation System in Community–Question-Answering Websites using Splay-Tree Methodology

In community-driven ranking systems participants with superior scores acquire strong reputation than low scored participants. The community-question-aswering websites, like stackexchange network, participants with unreciprocated or unnoticed questions for a long time get a badge called tumbleweed without taking into account of their earlier period performance. The user-driven question and answering website considers this reward as a consolation prize and discourages them instead of encouraging. Mostly, the users who ask unnoticed questions are either a new or less scored participants. The center of attention of this research work is to propose a recommendation system that prevents unnoticed questions from the participants who are about to receive a tumbleweed badge. A splay-tree is a tree with a self-balancing ability which brings the newly accessed node to the apex of the tree. In this paper, the splay-tree correspond to participants’ ranks and the highlight of the work is to raise average or beneath average scorer to apex without disturbing existing toppers.
E-Journal Subscription Management Systems and Beyond

York University of Pennsylvania, like many libraries, has been grappling with the issue of serials control for titles in aggregator databases. Historically the librarians have adapted the methods they used (word processing lists, lists on Web sites, online catalog, etc.) to provide journal access as technology has advanced. However, as the number of titles has increased beyond the capabilities of the staff, other options needed to be reviewed. In 2001 a task force was set up to evaluate three management systems: Serials Solutions, JournalWebCite, and TDNet. The librarians reviewed the technical requirements, the display and organization, searching capabilities, how often the systems are updated, usage statistics, management reports, cost and other special features.

Methodology for Developing E-learning Courses in IT Education

The development of educational processes in the universities of Kazakhstan in modern conditions occur in the following areas: individualization of educational methods, the transition to a continuous educational technology, the use of information technology in the educational process. The emergence of a new form of distance learning has fundamentally changed the idea of organizing the educational process as a whole. The use of modern educational technologies allows to increase the number of university students served. Relevance The article describes the implementation of this process, which is associated with the solution of a number of issues such as: developing an infrastructure for e-learning: developing new methods and training and sets of programs to support a single information space: developing e-courses: training students in using e-learning tools for training. Methods In the context of ubiquitous informatization, interactive forms of interaction are needed, covering a large contingent of students, ensuring the mobility of the teaching staff. The only form corresponding to these requirements is distance learning presented in the form of a whole range of technologies ensuring the delivery of the main volume of the material being studied to students, interactive interaction of students and teachers in the learning process, providing the learner with the opportunity for independent work on mastering the material being studied as well as in the learning process. Results Remote educational technologies in teaching students are one of the important activities of the university. The Faculty of Distance Learning provides technological support for the educational process, conducts training for teaching staff in distance learning technologies. Discussion The authors of the article describe the technology of remote learning using information and communication tools of the Internet. Development of distance courses based on state standards of the Republic of Kazakhstan and compiled taking into account the experience of European universities - leaders in the field of e-learning. Conclusion The authors of the article believe that the increasingly widespread term “e-learning” includes the use of information and communication technologies (ICT), which, potentially, can be used in education, is rapidly expanding.
Functional Architecture of integrated framework for Facet-based Data Collection and Analysis

We present in this paper an integrated framework for collection and analysis of Facet-based text data. The integrated framework consists of four components: (1) user interface, (2) web crawler, (3) data analyzer, and (4) database (DB). User interface is used to set input Facet and option values for web crawling and text data analysis using a graphical user interface (GUI). In fact, it offers outcomes of research by data visualization. The web crawler collects text data from articles posted on the web based on input Facets. The data analyzer classifies papers in "relevant articles" (i.e., word sets to be included on such posts) and "nonrelevant articles" with predefined information. It then analyzes the text data of the relevant articles and visualizes the results of the data analysis. Ultimately, the DB holds the generated text information, the predefined user-defined expertise and the outcomes of data analysis and data visualization. We verify the feasibility of an integrated framework by means of proof of concept (PoC) prototyping. The experimental results show that the implemented prototype reliably collects and analyzes the text data of the articles.
15. Semantics in computational lexicons

This chapter gives an overview of work on the representation of semantic information in lexicon resources for computational natural language processing (NLP). It starts with a broad overview of the history and state of the art of different types of semantic lexicons in Computational Linguistics, and discusses their main use cases. Section 2 is devoted to questions of how to construct semantic lexicons for Computational Linguistics. We discuss diverse modelling principles for semantic lexicons and methods for their construction, ranging from largely manual resource creation to automated methods for learning lexicons from text, semi-structured or unstructured. Section 3 addresses issues related to the cross-lingual and multi-lingual creation of broad-coverage semantic lexicon resources. Section 4 discusses interoperability, i.e., the combination of lexical (and other) resources describing different meaning aspects. Section 5 concludes with an outlook on future research directions.

The Demand for Hatred in an Era of Political Divisiveness in the United States

This paper uses conceptual economics to analyze the nationwide demand for hatred nurtured by political divisiveness and conflicts in the United States. The study asserts that politicians from the Democratic and Republican Parties are the prime suppliers of hatred that hate groups willfully consume to reveal their preference for overt racial-gender hatred and that the hate crime laws or the legal penalties of hate crimes may have altered the dynamics of hatred and hate crimes in both directions in the United States. In the current political environment, the consensus among political pundits and legal scholars is that the 45th President of the United States could be considered as one of the largest suppliers of conspiracy theories and disinformation used to nurture hate-creating stories and false narratives that many hate groups consumed nationwide thus their revealed preference for overt hatred and hate crimes. The aggregate demand for hatred depends on the legal penalty paid for hatred and the continuous hatred signals received from political leaders such as the 45th POTUS.
The Red and the Black

The main attraction in every European casino is the roulette tables. There hardly seems to be much variety in betting on one of 37 numbers or a group of them and then watching to see which number the ball lands on when the wheel is spun. Just as in dice games, the probabilities in roulette depend on the symmetries of the game, and thus on more or less abstract considerations. These probabilities are connected to what happens in the real world only through the law of large numbers, which is surely among the most important laws for the calculation of probabilities: in a series of trials, the relative frequencies of an event approach the probability of the event arbitrarily closely. In 5000 series of trials of 1000 red and black numbers each, the distribution of the colors will behave as predicted by the formulas of the binomial distribution.
