European Data Protection Regulation and Academic Publishers

This chapter explores the interface between European data protection and academic social science and humanities publishers until the end of the Data Protection Directive (DPD) era. It begins by summarizing the ‘knowledge facilitation’ provisions which target activities such as scientific research and have been set out in formal data protection instruments at both pan-European and State level over many decades. It is found that, in contrast to most freedom of expression derogations, these restrictive provisions only established very limited exemptions from default data protection norms. The chapter then looks at Data Protection Authorities (DPA) guidance and finds that, subject to a few exceptions, this has indicated that academic expression should comply with the ‘knowledge facilitation’ restrictions. However, much of this guidance has remained very generic or has focused on discrete issues such as the use of confidential datasets provided on safeguarded terms. The chapter reports results from a DPA questionnaire on the regulation of publicly interested covert social science research, finding that many regulators construed the law here very differently to undercover journalism; half even saw this activity as being ipso facto illegal. Turning to enforcement, the chapter details the fairly extensive efforts of many regulators in this area prior to the Data Protection Directive (DPD). Under the DPD, the DPA questionnaire responses suggested that approximately 40 per cent of regulators had taken action against social scientists. However, published examples of action remained limited and, furthermore, these efforts were largely and increasingly focused on specific issues related especially to confidential datasets.
Cultural and Historical Attitudes of Students of Humanitarian and Technical Specializations

The article is devoted to the study of cultural and historical attitudes of students. The attitudes of students to the period of existence, causes and consequences of the collapse of the USSR as the main topic are investigated. The study used two versions of the questionnaire developed for this purpose: an abbreviated one, containing 14 questions and expanded version based on it, containing 50 questions. The expanded version of the questionnaire in particular allowed to obtain data on students perception of the problem of the existence of the people as a cultural and historical phenomenon, the problem of the existence of sovereign countries, democracy, the possibility of creating a union world state and a number of others. The article presents the results concerning the connection of cultural and historical attitudes of students with their socio-demographic characteristics.
Aplikasi Location Based Service (LBS) Untuk Informasi Dan Pencarian Lokasi Rumah Makan Halal Di Kota Kupang Berbasis Android

Kupang City is a municipality and also the capital of East Nusa Tenggara Province. Various types of ethnicity, race, religion exist in the city of Kupang. The type of food and tastes also vary according to the race character in Kupang City. It is often a separate issue fore some migrant communities, especially for Muslim communities who visit Kupang City when looking for Halal Restaurants. For Muslim communities who want to find the location of the nearest Halal Restaurant in the city of Kupang they will usually ask the people around and browse the streets, but this will certainly take a long time. Therefore we need an Android-based Location Based Service (LBS) application that can provide clear information about the location of Halal Restaurants in the city of Kupang. In this study the system development method used is the Rational Unified Process (RUP) method. This application was built using the Java programming language and Kotlin, SQLite as a database. This research resulted in an Android-based Location Based Service application that provides services in the form of clear location information such as coordinates and distance to halal restaurants in Kupang City.
Optimising Search Operations with Swarm Intelligence

─ The challenge in search and rescue is to identify the optimal paths when searching the entire location. This is further complicated by the unknown and yet complex environmental terrain; whilst being under the pressure of time. Many of the existing search algorithms such as Depth First Search (DFS) are focused on having only a single agent to sweep through the location. Drawing inspiration from the self-organisation mechanism and the emergence of global behaviour through local interactions between agents in swarm intelligence; this study utilises the information exchange between agents in the swarm to navigate a search area effectively. We demonstrate the proposed swarm-based search method and compare its performance against the existing path finding algorithm Breadth First Search (BFS) on terrains with different complexity. We conducted simulations of search and rescue operations; with findings that the proposed Swarm Intelligence Based Search Strategy (SIS) is able to reach upwards of 95% the effectiveness of BFS with approximately one-fifth the cost of BFS. In addition, a thorough analysis and experimental results to show the optimal number of agents is shown. Our results also demonstrate that having more agents do not necessarily lead to better traversal.

Through a combination of lecture, group work, class discussion, listening, performance, and composition, this lesson plan provides a method to introduce and apply beat-class machinery to the piece, guiding students to an analysis that reflects their aural experience. A detailed, step-by-step outline is provided, which can be adapted based on student background and length of class session.
Channel Attention with Embedding Gaussian Process: A Probabilistic Methodology.

Channel attention mechanisms, as the key components of some modern convolutional neural networks (CNNs) architectures, have been commonly used in many visual tasks for effective performance improvement. It is able to reinforce the informative channels and to suppress useless channels of feature maps obtained by CNNs. Recently, different attention modules have been proposed, which are implemented in various ways. However, they are mainly based on convolution and pooling operations, which are lack of intuitive and reasonable insights about the principles that they are based on. Moreover, the ways that they improve the performance of the CNNs is not clear either. In this paper, we propose a Gaussian process embedded channel attention (GPCA) module and interpret the channel attention intuitively and reasonably in a probabilistic way. The GPCA module is able to model the correlations from channels which are assumed as beta distributed variables with Gaussian process prior. As the beta distribution is intractably integrated into the end-to-end training of the CNNs, we utilize an appropriate approximation of the beta distribution to make the distribution assumption implemented easily. In this case, the proposed GPCA module can be integrated into the end-to-end training of the CNNs. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed GPCA module can improve the accuracies of image classification on four widely used datasets.

A Historic Analysis on the Relationship between Bureaucrats and Professors in the Field of Education

이 논문은 한국의 교육정책 역사에서 관료와 교수 관계가 어떻게 변화해왔는지를 규명하고자 하였다. 발전 국가 시기까지 관료의 정책 주도성은 명확하였고, 교수들은 정책 과정에 부분적으로 봉사하였다. 이 시기에 미국에서 유학을 마치고 온 교수들이 소개하는 새로운 개념이나 기법 등이 교육정책에 활용되기도 했다. 민주화 이후, 특히 1995년 교육개혁 이후 관료와 교수는 개혁가 대 개혁 대상, 평가자 대 평가 대상, 재정 배분자 대 수급자의 관계에 놓이게 되었다. 이런 변화는 한국이 글로벌 교육정책 장에 편입되면서 신자유주의에 터한 유동 개혁이 국내로 상륙하고, 관료들이 유동 개혁을 소개하는 통로가 된 사실과 깊이 관련된다. 정책 과정에서 관료 주도성이 명확하기 때문에, 교육 관료들의 스키마를 분석하는 일이 향후 중요한 연구 과제가 된다.This paper attempts to clarify how the relationship between bureaucrats and professors in the field of education has changed in Korea. At the time of the developmental state, bureaucrats policy initiatives were very strong, with professors partially assisting in the policy process. At this time, new concepts and techniques introduced and implemented in education policies by professors who hade returned from the United States. After democratization, especially after the reform of education in 1995, bureaucrats and professors entered into the relationship of reformer versus the reform target, the evaluator versus the subject to be evaluated, and the financial allocator versus its recipient. This change is deeply related to the fact that since Korea was incorporated into the global education policy field, Korean education began to be baptized in the new public management reform introduced by the bureaucrats. Since bureaucrats have had the initiative in the policy process, analyzing so called the schema of educational educational bureaucrats should be an important research topic in the future.

All-optical photonic integrated neural networks: a first take (Conference Presentation)

If electro-optic conversion of current photonic NNs could be postponed until the very end of the network, then the execution time is simply the photon time-of-flight delay. Here we discuss a first design and performance of an all-optical perceptron and feed-forward NN. Key is the dual-purpose foundry-approved heterogeneous integration of phase-change-materials resulting in a) volatile nonlinear activation function (threshold) realized with ps-short optical pulses resulting in a non-equilibrium variation of the materials permittivity, and b) thermo-optically writing a non-volatile optical multi-cell (5-bit) memory for the NN weights after being (offline) trained. Once trained, the weights only required a rare update, thus saving power. Performance wise, such an integrated all-optical NN is capable of < fJ/MAC using experimental demonstrated pump-probe [Waldecker et al, Nat. Mat. 2015] with a delay per perceptron being ~ps [Miscuglio et al. Opt.Mat.Exp. 2018] has a high cascadability.
Learning the Malay Traditional Musical Instruments by using Augmented Reality Application

The study presents a mathematical model of temperature distribution for a gas flow in a pipeline with heat exchange through the wall.Modeling is performed in a one-dimensional (hydraulic) approximation but the temperature distribution across the pipe near its wall (thermal boundary layer) is taken into account.This model includes two independent parameters that contain information about the heat-conducting properties of gas and pipe walls, taking into account thermal insulation.The resulting equation is proposed for use for field gathering plumes.The parameter that includes the heat transfer coefficient through the pipe wall, when setting the task of determining the moment of the beginning of hydrate formation in the field plumes is not known in advance and is subject to identification by comparing the calculation data with the measurement information.To solve such (inverse) problems, an analytical form of representation of the dependencies between the process parameters is important which determines the relevance of the presented result.The novelty lies in the fact that the obtained analytical dependence for the temperature distribution along the pipeline describes the heat transfer through the wall (through the thermal boundary layer), the thermal conductivity inside the gas and the convective heat transfer along the flow.

A Study on Reuse-based Requirements Engineering by Utilizing Knowledge Pattern

Software development has become an essential part of many industries over the past decade. The use of software has become an essential element for the organization to support its operation and business. Some software has certain features in common, which allow its requirements to be used repetitively in the requirement engineering phase. This paper presents a study on knowledge patterns for reuse-based requirements engineering. Reuse-based requirements engineering is saving the effort to conduct the process and, at the same time maintaining the standard since reused requirements come with its properties as well. Software development is an iterative process itself and so does the knowledge it holds in every iteration. When analysts perform many iterations of elicitation processes, it is often the case that a significant amount of requirements is recurring and similar software system will likely benefit from them. This research adopted a literature review method to investigate and to present current studies on knowledge pattern for the purpose of reuse. Knowledge reuse by utilizing knowledge pattern is becoming a significant method in software requirements engineering as it safes the effort of developing requirements from scratch. The study found that a specific pattern is required to develop good requirements specification. A proposed prototype to deploy reuse-based requirements engineering is also presented and evaluated. Experts’ judgment method is used for evaluation by adapting the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). The results showed that reusing knowledge pattern expedites the requirements elicitation process and improves the requirements quality.

COMPARATIVE PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF DISCRETE COSINE TRANSFORM AND WAVELET BASED IMAGE COMPRESSION

Compression indicates the decreasing in size of image without decreasing the quality of the input image. The widely addressed researched area in the application of compression on images is Image compression. The importance of compression of image is to decrease the redundancy and irrelevancy in the image given as input, such that the image can be collected and can be transmitted substantially. There are several compression standards present in this compression of image but even there is a scope for high compression in quality of reconstructed image. The image compression contains two techniques depending on the compressed image, to be exactly same as the original such as lossy techniques and lossless techniques. The DCT(Discrete cosine transform) can be used by JPEG in the compression of images. Different aspects in image compression gives wavelet image compression introduction. The results thus obtained from the output proves the analysis of compression using DCT and DWT depending on the PSNR, MSE values as well as the compression ratio without the image quality degradation.
Internal and External Threat Analysis of Anonymized Dataset

In recent years, data collection and data mining have emerged as fast-paced computational processes as the amount of data from different sources has increased manifold. With the advent of such technologies, major concern is exposure of an individual's self-contained information. To confront the unusual situation, anonymization of dataset is performed before being released into public for further usage. The chapter discusses various existing techniques of anonymization. Thereafter, a novel redaction technique is proposed for generalization to minimize the overall cost (penalty) of the process being inversely proportional to utility of generated dataset. To validate the proposed work, authors assume a pre-processed dataset and further compare our algorithm with existing techniques. Lastly, the proposed technique is made scalable thus ensuring further minimization of generalization cost and improving overall utility of information gain.
The map of permanent natural electric field of Russia

The article describes a direct connection between the natural electric potential and the dynamics of the temperature of volcanoes using the examples of observation of the natural electric potential on the surfaces of volcanoes. If the upper part of the volcano is hotter, positive potential anomalies are recorded, and conversely, if the lower part of the volcanoes is hotter, negative anomalies of the same potential are recorded. At the same time, the temperature processes occurring at great depths, as a rule, are closely related to long-lived deep faults. Therefore, observations of the natural potential over these faults will allow controlling the dynamics of deep temperature processes. Given this new direction of the natural potential method and its effective application in the search for non-ferrous metal ores, there is a need to create the map of the natural electrical potential of Russia. As a result, small-scale map would allow us more precise limitation of ore fields and purposefully search for previously undiscovered deposits of metal ores. In addition, a small-scale map would make it possible to most accurately track the development of deep tectonic fault zones and to study them in relation to volcanic activity and seismic events. In this regard, the method of natural electric potential hodograph is considered as one of the possible ways to predict seismic events.
ADVERTISING FUNCTION OF HEADLINES IN ENGLISH INTERNET NEWS: A COGNITIVE LINGUISTIC PERSPECTIVE

The article studies the linguistic means of English Internet news headlines performing advertising function.Viewing headline as a riveting short-cut to the contents of an article, advertising function lies in attracting attention to the full-text.It is found that cognitively news headlines are based on the same perceptual abilities as advertising slogans captured by image-schemas -recurring dynamic patterns of human perceptual interaction and motor programs structuring our experiences.The analysis of 30 BBC news stories and 20 advertising slogans has demonstrated that most frequently news headlines and slogans rely on force image schemas.COUNTERFORCE representing the meeting of two equally important forces that collide relies on different verbs and syntactic structures in news headlines and advertising slogans.In headlines it is denoted by the verbs to attack, to hit, to warn, and slogans draw on the verb to hit.COMPULSION denoting the source which makes the target do something relies on the verbs to force, to make, to provoke in news headlines and to make and to obey in slogans.BLOCKAGE representing a force vector encountering a barrier and then taking any number of possible directions is denoted in headlines by the verbs to reject, to jail, to sue, to trap, to poison and in slogans by the verbs to cool in the meaning to trap and to jail.RESTRAINT REMOVAL is represented by the verbs to answer, to find, to free in headlines and the verbs to let and to answer in slogans.ENABLEMENT representing a force which helps the target to exist is denoted by the verbs to create, to give, to help, to make, to vote in headlines and to give, to help in slogans.DISABLEMENT represents the force which destroys the target of the action in headlines by the verbs to kill, to lose, to reject, and slogans draw on the verbs to kill, to melt.
설계변경 시 VE 적용을 위한 예비연구

Change requests occur persistently in the construction phase of a construction project. The law requires that the contract amount be adjusted in accordance with the relevant regulations when there is a change in the construction amount due to the design change in the construction contract. SAVE international, on the other hand, defines the value methodology as a systematic and structured approach to improving projects, products and processes. Design Changes in the construction projects require organizational efforts to improve value and quality. However, the law does not include change requests in which the VE object is fixed and related data is collected and function analysis can be derived in a short time. Therefore, it is necessary to apply VE to the design change procedure, which can further improve the value of construction work. The application derived from this study need to be presented as simply as possible without compromising the basic concept of VE. If the application is extended to the field and proved to be effective, it is expected to contribute to the overall value of construction work.
Learning from Web Data with Self-Organizing Memory Module

Learning from web data has attracted lots of research interest in recent years. However, crawled web images usually have two types of noises, label noise and background noise, which induce extra difficulties in utilizing them effectively. Most existing methods either rely on human supervision or ignore the background noise. In this paper, we propose a novel method, which is capable of handling these two types of noises together, without the supervision of clean images in the training stage. Particularly, we formulate our method under the framework of multi-instance learning by grouping ROIs (i.e., images and their region proposals) from the same category into bags. ROIs in each bag are assigned with different weights based on the representative/discriminative scores of their nearest clusters, in which the clusters and their scores are obtained via our designed memory module. Our memory module could be naturally integrated with the classification module, leading to an end-to-end trainable system. Extensive experiments on four benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.
