DESIGNING A MANDARIN LEARNING IN DONGXIANG NATIONALITY BY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENT SPEECH TECHNOLOGY

Motivation:Mandarin is the common language of communication in China, and it is also an essential bridge between ethnic minorities. The promotion of Mandarin is of great significance to promote national harmony and cultural exchange. As one of the ethnic minorities in China, Dongxiang students also need to learn Mandarin. However, there is a lack of bilingual teachers to teach Mandarin in the Dongxiang area, and there is no intelligent language education system suitable for Dongxiang students to learn Mandarin.Method:This paper proposes transforming Dongxiang language into Chinese characters and then Mandarin and constructs an intelligent speech teaching system suitable for Dongxiang students' Mandarin learning. The system consists of a Speech enhancement generative adversarial network (Segan) and a Tacotron Automatic Speech Recognition (TASR), and a speech synthesis (Tacotron 2 + Wavernn), which takes Dongxiang phoneme as input and Chinese characters and Mandarin as output. This study needs to design a 6000 sentence Dongxiang language corpus with phoneme and tone features as the training corpus. Because there is no character in the Dongxiang language, Chinese characters are used to represent the corpus. On this basis, the corpus is recorded and annotated with "SAMPA-DX." In the experimental stage, the Dongxiang corpus is firstly sent to Segan for preprocessing. The purpose is to enhance the original speech and improve the quality of speech. Secondly, we train the TASR model, including the input layer, embedding layer, coding layer, attention mechanism, decoding layer, and output layer. The features used in the input layer include text annotated by Dongxiang corpus and Mel spectrum. Finally, the Chinese characters output from the TASR model are synthesized into Mandarin through Tacotron2 + Wavernn model.Result:The experimental results show that the error rate of the TASR model trained by Segan enhanced corpus is 31%, which is 2% higher than that without Segan. The MOS value of synthesized Mandarin is 4.2.Conclusion:The proposed method can be applied to the Mandarin Education of Dongxiang students. It can help students learn Mandarin instead of teachers. Students speak the Dongxiang language, and the corresponding Chinese characters are translated and synthesized into Mandarin by the system to achieve the purpose of teaching.

VANET is a subset of Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET) that utilizes wireless technology, which in the VANET network the node is presented as a vehicle and the route for a vehicle is presented as a highway that will be passed by that vehicle. In general, VANET has 3 classification routing protocols, namely reactive, proactive, and hybrid. Performance of routing protocol is greatly influenced by the propagation model. Propagation on the network is the behavior of radio waves, which in this case is used as a transmission medium from the transmitter to the destination (receiver). This research will analyze the variation of propagation models namely FreeSpace, TwoRayGround, Shadowing, and Nakagami on the performance of AOMDV (reactive), OLSR (proactive), and ZRP (hybrid). The performance of the routing protocol will be tested using test parameters including Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), Packet Loss, End to End Delay, and Throughput.&#x0D; Keywords: VANET, AOMDV, OLSR, ZRP, FreeSpace, TwoRayGround, Shadowing, Nakagami
Research on the Pre-Entrance Education of Freshmen

As the link between high school and university, College entrance education plays an extremely important role in helping students quickly and effectively change roles and ideas, enhance their adaptability, and reshape their learning goals. Entrance education is also a compulsory link in the cultivation of college students in China. With the continuous development of the society and the entrance of the post-2000 freshmen, the traditional entrance education, which focuses on concentrated learning, has gradually shown that it can not meet the needs of freshmen. There is a great contrast between their distinctive personality characteristics and traditional entrance education in teaching methods, time arrangement and communication platform choice. Therefore, in view of this kind of situation, this paper will further meet the actual needs of freshmen adaptability from the perspective of the content and form selection in the pre-entrance education for freshmen. Through literature survey and comparison, this paper hopes to find an effective way to break through the time and space limitation of the current concentrated teaching, so as to further promote the effectiveness of college entrance education, realize the effective method of education purpose, and help college freshmen to adapt to the new environment as soon as possible and better complete the role transformation.

CREATIVITY AS A SUBJECT OF PSYCHOLOGICAL AND PEDAGOGICAL RESEARCH OF DOMESTIC SCIENTISTS

The article establishes that creativity is a complex, interdisciplinary problem that attracts the scientific interest of specialists in various fields of knowledge, especially pedagogy and psychology. The purpose of the article is to identify the main aspects of the problem of creativity and to outline the relevant areas of scientific psychological and pedagogical research. It is revealed that creativity is reasonably considered as a universal personality trait, an integral creative ability. Psychological and pedagogical research emphasizes the important place and role of creativity in training and activities. It was found that creativity is mainly associated with creativity and talent of the individual, with the development of his creative abilities. The connection of creativity with other personality traits, in particular with the level of its intellectual development, as well as with imagination, intuition, the need for self-actualization, etc., is being actively developed. It is stated that in the psychological and pedagogical scientific literature the question of at what age one should start work on the formation of creativity or which age is the most favorable for this continues to be discussed. Some scholars argue that the formation of creativity should begin in the early stages of personality development, others believe that especially favorable for the development of creativity is the senior school age. It was found that scientists are interested in the development of creativity in higher education, including pedagogy. Creativity is considered as a component of professional skill. One of the aspects of the problem of creativity and the corresponding direction of psychological and pedagogical research is creative thinking. The issue of creative competence is also being developed. Much of the research on certain issues is devoted to the conditions, methods and technologies of formation and development of creativity. These include creative environment, search and research and invention activities, practical classes, information and communication, interactive (game), design technologies, case method, design, modeling.

IDENTITY DEVELOPMENT OF IMMIGRANT CHILDREN AS PORTRAYED IN MY NAME IS YOON AND YOON AND THE CHRISTMAS MITTEN

The topic of cultural differences in picture books can be used as a medium for school-age children to understand more about the condition of immigrant children in America. “Through picture books about immigrants, nonimmigrant children can learn about the immigrant experience (Johnson and Smith, 1993) and be exposed to different cultures in the social studies classroom” (Lamme, Linda, et al., 2004: 123). This issue becomes very interesting to be analyzed because the readers will get more understanding on how immigrant children face several cultural differences in America, especially on how they develop their identity. The purpose of this study is to analyze the identity development of immigrant children in America as portrayed in Yoon character in the picture books by Helen Recorvits. As a Korean girl who moves to America, Yoon has to adapt and adjust with new different environment. The method of this study is descriptive qualitative based on the library research. This paper uses sociological approach to analyze the story of Yoon in the picture books. The result of this study shows that Yoon has experienced adjustment and acculturation during her adaptation to American culture. She has gradually undergone a change of identity, which is from a Korean girl to be an Asian-American. Keywords: picture books, immigrant children, adjustment, identity development
A Qualitative Theory of Cognitive Attitudes and their Change

We present a general logical framework for reasoning about agents' cognitive attitudes of both epistemic type and motivational type. We show that it allows us to express a variety of relevant concepts for qualitative decision theory including the concepts of knowledge, belief, strong belief, conditional belief, desire, conditional desire, strong desire and preference. We also present two extensions of the logic, one by the notion of choice and the other by dynamic operators for belief change and desire change, and we apply the former to the analysis of single-stage games under incomplete information. We provide sound and complete axiomatizations for the basic logic and for its two extensions. The paper is under consideration in Theory and Practice of Logic Programming (TPLP).
A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON THE EFFICIENCY OF TEST STATISTICS IN TESTING THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN TWO DEPENDENT DATASETS

The purpose of the present study is to compare the efficiency of test statistics in testing the differences between two dependent datasets applying a regression framework with centered independent variable values.Comparisons of the efficiency of the test statistics, namely the t RCM b * 0 , the Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-ranks test, and the Paired sample t-test, are made with the correlation coefficients, the sample sizes, and the ratio of mean different between the two datasets being varied.Simulations of the test statistics apply a Monte Carlo technique and are repeated 1,000 times.The research results show that the efficiency in controlling Type I errors of the Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-ranks test and the Paired t-test is high under all scenarios, while that of the t RCM b * 0 is high only in case the r xy is not excessively high, that is, under 0.80.In contrast, the power of the test of the latter is significantly higher than the former under all scenarios.

Research on ultrasound image of interventional catheterization processing method based on wavelet transform and fuzzy theory

Interventional catheterization can help patients to accurately assess the condition, early diagnosis and intervention. Confirming the location of catheter by ultrasound has the advantages of real-time imaging, non-invasive, radiative, fast and convenient. Due to speckle noise and similar acoustic impedance, ultrasound images are not clear. In this paper an ultrasonic image processing algorithm based on wavelet transform and fuzzy theory is proposed. First, logarithmic transformation of ultrasound images is used to convert multiplicative noise into additive noise. Then the wavelet coefficients of the image are obtained by multiscale wavelet transform. The high frequency wavelet coefficients of the image are denoised by thresholding, and the low-frequency wavelet coefficients of the image are processed by fuzzy enhancement. Finally, the processed image is obtained through wavelet reconstruction and exponential transformation. Experiments show that this proposed method can effectively improve the visual effect of images.
Complex Analysis of New Unique Human Society Life in Eight Coordinate System

The article presents deep and complex analysis based on the changes of life of human society during the COVID-19 pandemic. The World as never before has a global common enemy and everyone is in danger doesn’t matter where he lives and what is the occupation. The life new dimensions are considered as an 8-coordinate system where the new 4 coordinates – coronavirus, “virus” of poverty, “virus” of chronically ill people and scientists as new leading factor of the world. It means, a simple solution for prevention and regulation of pandemic doesn’t exist. Countries and outbreaks are represented by 4 everlasting coordinates – three for space and for time measurement. The life of human society is conditionally divided of 4 hierarchic levels. Interactions between them have to be studied by scientists from all areas in order to win this word challenge where all humans are on the same side of the barricade. The presented analysis could be extremely useful for explanation the errors made by leaders and to show them that the new reality requires relevant and effective decisions based on scientific complex analyzes and taking into account the four hierarchic levels of knowledge.

Penerapan Model Discovery Learning pada Pembelajaran Garis Singgung Lingkaran untuk Meningkatkan Aktivitas dan Prestasi Belajar Siswa

The background of this research is the low activity and achievement of students' mathematics learning, one of which is due to the selection of learning models that are less varied. The activities of students are only limited to listening, taking notes, then doing practice questions. Discovery Learning is a learning model that directs students to be able to find concepts through the learning process they do which is expected to increase the activities and learning achievements of students. This type of research is a classroom action research (PTK) which is carried out in two cycles and each cycle contains the stages of action planning, action implementation, observation, and evaluation, as well as a reflection stage. The results showed that there was an increase in the activity and learning achievement of students where the learning activities of students in the first cycle with an average score of 10.51 were categorized as high, while in the second cycle with an average score of 13.67, they were categorized as very high. The average score of the learning evaluation results of students has increased in each cycle, namely in the first cycle the average score of the learning evaluation results was 72.65 with a percentage of 62.07% completeness and in the second cycle the average score of the learning evaluation results was 79.24 with a percentage of completeness of 86.21%. Based on the achievements obtained, it can be concluded that the Discovery learning model can increase the activity and learning achievement of students in learning tangents to circles.

A FEW REMARKS ON THE CONCEPT OF PREGEOMETRY DEVELOPED BY YU.S. VLADIMIROV AND LAID BY HIM THE BASIS OF IDEAS ABOUT THE PHYSICAL AND MATHEMATICAL STRUCTURE OF SPACE-TIME

In the program of physical research, formulated by Yu.S. Vladimirov and close to those tasks that are called the geometrization of physics, the author presents an original view on the creative process in physics, which began with the concept of physical structures of Yu.I. Kulakov. Vladimirov used Kulakov’s meta- physical concept to create a geometric image of the world in order to move from it to the study of the structure of space-time with subsequent filling it with physical content. The result is a relational theory of space-time, which is based on axiomatic called pregeometry. In this article, this axiomatics is subjected to critical reflection, its positive and negative points are noted. Among the shortcomings, the author of the Remarks refers a one-sided approach to the concept of physical interaction, where any effect or influence of one physical object on another seems to be long-range in the sense that the action is transmitted without any intermediary and at infinite speed. Another point of view: long-range action should be supplemented by short-range action, because these are two necessary aspects of physical reality. The idea of complementarity of 1. Bohr extends to them: contraria sunt complementa (opposites are complementary).
