AN ANALYSIS ON THE APPLICATION OF AUTHENTIC VIDEO IN MARITIME ENGLISH SPEAKING LEARNING (A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY AT MERCHANT MARINE COLLEGE BP2IP MALAHAYATI, ACEH BESAR)

ABSTRACT Name: Hayatun Nufus Student No: 1309200080005 Department/Program: English Education Title:An Analysis on the Application of Authentic Video in Maritime English Speaking Learning. (A Descriptive Study at Merchant Marine College, BP2IP Malahayati Aceh) Keywords: Speaking, Authentic Video, Maritime English This study is aimed at discovering how maritime English teachers apply authentic video in maritime English speaking learning in the classroom. This study is also aimed at looking for information about challenges that are often found by the teachers in maritime English in using authentic video and ended by finding out the students' responses toward authentic videos’ applicationin learning maritime English. The material given in this research was an authentic video under the topics of “Types of Vessel” and “Safety Equipments in Machinery Spaces”.The participants of this research were 100 cadets consisting of 50 cadets majoring in Deck and 50 from the Engine Department and four Maritime English teachers. This research data were collected by using observation sheet, questionnaire, and also interview guide. The result shows that: (1) the four observed teachers did almost the same technique in presenting video; (2) the teachers did the three steps in video, including Pre-Viewing, Viewing and Post-Viewing Activity; (3) there are still lack of activities toward the video material; and(4) Some challenges faced by the teacher in applying authentic video are as follows: selecting the video that fits the topic, the limitation of video archive, the limitation of audio-visual tools and avoiding the ‘nothing new” video syndrome among the students. (5) The students’responses toward authentic video application was very positive. The findings show that 55 students (55%) who chose strongly agree option by means authentic video can give them information about their work scope later. 56 students (56%) stated that learning English by using video can make their knowledge stay longer than without it. 51 students (51%) like learning English by using video. Besides, 38 students (38%) stated that their teacher often uses authentic video while teaching English. Therefore, in line with the results above, the teacher should be more creative in preparing the learning material in maritime English classes. It is also suggested that the teacher participate in seminars or workshops related to learning material.

Manifolds and tensors

The mathematical basis of general relativity is differential geometry. This chapter establishes the starting point of differential geometry: manifolds, tangent vectors, cotangent vectors, tensors, and differential forms. The metric tensor is introduced, and its symmetries (isometries) are described. The importance of diffeomorphism invariance (or “general covariance”) is stressed.
WORD-OF-MOUTH COMMUNICATION IN THE ONLINE PURCHASING DECISION PROCESS

Among the main changes in daily life that are due to the use of online tools, the search for information to help the purchasing decision process was one of the most impacted. Before the popularization of Internet use, positive and negative information about products and services was obtained in small groups of individuals. After popularization, the interactivity between users grew and extended to consumer practices, generating a word-of-mouth communication in electronic media. In this way, this article aims to assess comparatively the influences of the positive and negative electronic mouth-to-mouth communication in the online purchasing decision process. For this, 248 questionnaires were applied and ten hypotheses were verified. As analytical methods were used the descriptive statistic and the confirmatory factorial analysis by means of structural equations. Only the evaluation of alternatives, purchase and post-purchase behavior are influenced.
Pixels to diagnosis: image analysis for digital pathology (Conference Presentation)

Increased interest in medical imaging has resulted in development of a variety of image analysis systems. Many of these systems follow the ‘computer-aided diagnosis’ paradigm. In this paradigm, the main function of the image analysis system is to help medical professionals (e.g. radiologists, pathologists, dermatologists) in their decision-making, instead of making decisions on their behalf. If a system is designed to help medical professionals, its logic, development methodology and evaluation should be transparent to its users. In this talk, we will describe how to develop an image analysis system: how to translate medical knowledge into algorithms, how to supplement this knowledge with pattern recognition methods, and how to evaluate such systems with carefully designed reader studies with the participation of medical professionals of varying levels of experience.
Gaussian Radial Basis Function Neural Network with Correlation Based Feature Selection Applied to Medical Text Categorization

Text categorization is an important field for information processing systems. Particularly, medical text processing is a popular research area that makes use of classification algorithms and dimension reduction strategies from machine learning field. In this study, we propose a three stage algorithm to automatically categorize medical text from OHSUMED corpus. In the proposed algorithm, we use Correlation Based Feature Filtering on top of Radial Basis Function Neural Network. The algorithm for 12 sample datasets produces 0.890 in terms macro average F-measure. In this context, both Correlation based Feature Filtering as a feature elimination strategy and Radial Basis Function Neural Network as text categorization algorithm are promising methods
Logical Fallacies as Bayesian Informational Shortcuts

Information closure may help with the consistency of a database, so it is related to information quality. However, it cannot be used to expand such an information repository. For this, other forms of reasoning are needed. Bayesianism is often indicated as a classic means to upgrade a set of beliefs or indeed some bits of information, in the vocabulary of this book. Some other erroneous forms of reasoning, however, damage the same reservoir of information. Interestingly, the two dynamics are related. As argued in this chapter, the two best known formal logical fallacies, namely <italic>denying the antecedent</italic> (DA) and <italic>affirming the consequent</italic> (AC), are not just basic and simple errors, which prove human irrationality, but rather informational shortcuts, which may provide a quick and dirty (and therefore unsafe) way of extracting useful information from the same informational resources to which Alice already has access. And, in this sense, they can be shown to amount to degraded versions of Bayes’ theorem, once this is stripped of some of its probabilities. The less the probabilities count, the closer these fallacies become to a reasoning that is not only informationally useful but also logically valid.
Maker’s Knowledge, between A Priori and A Posteriori

If Alice’s knowledge is the knowledge enjoyed by a maker how can this be qualified according to the three classic distinctions, which specify that truths can be <italic>necessary</italic> vs. <italic>contingent, analytic</italic> vs. <italic>synthetic</italic>, and a priori vs. a posteriori? This chapter argues that (a) we need to decouple a fourth distinction, namely <italic>informative</italic> vs. <italic>uninformative</italic>, from the previous three and, in particular, from its implicit association with <italic>analytic</italic> vs. <italic>synthetic</italic> and a priori vs. a posteriori; (b) such a decoupling facilitates, and is facilitated by, moving from a monoagent to a multiagent approach; (c) the decoupling and the multiagent approach enable a re-mapping of currently available positions in epistemology on these four dichotomies; (d) within such a re-mapping, two positions, capturing the nature of a witness’s knowledge and of a maker’s knowledge, can best be described as <italic>contingent, synthetic</italic>, a posteriori, and <italic>uninformative</italic> and as <italic>contingent, synthetic, weakly</italic> a priori (ab anteriori), and <italic>uninformative</italic> respectively.

Artistic style transfer using deep learning

In this paper, we are implementing the style transfer using convolutional neural networks. The style transfer means to extract the style and texture of a style image and applying it to the extracted content of another image. Our work is based on the work proposed by LA Gatys. We use a pre-trained model, VGG 16 for our work. This work includes the content reconstruction and style reconstruction from the content image and style image respectively. Now the style and content are merged in a manner that the features of content and style are retained.
Organization Of Practice-Oriented Training In New Economic Conditions: The Process Approach

The article discloses peculiarities of the practice-oriented education under conditions of the university’s structural divisions. Regions of Russia have their own natural, demographic and economic conditions. Personnel training for regions of Russia, with considering their individual peculiarities and needs, includes the processes, specifically, organization of training and formation of competences being necessary and actual in the given economic conditions. Organizations of such process via the university’s basic chairs is represented as a model consisting of the following elements: goal, tasks, principles, approaches, content and diagnostics. The inter-connection of these elements is influenced by the labour market of this or that region, content of federal educational standards, professional standards, processes of formation of personal and theoretical components, fixing of the practical part and formation of this or that competence. The result of this model under conditions of a vocational pedagogical university shall be a pedagogue’s readiness for vocational pedagogical activity; in terms of universities of another line, a specialist’s readiness for a certain type of activity through organization of the practice-oriented education via their basic chairs. Practice-oriented training of students in a university’s conditions is interpreted in different ways. We include organization of the following processes in this concept: conducting of practical works of various types and kinds; scientific-research works; collection, analysis and processing of data for preparing of terms papers and graduate qualification works; conducting of scientific researches; studying and monitoring of needs in personnel for regions of Russia; occupational re-training and advance training of personnel in the region.

From Bacteria, a Consideration of the Evolution of Neural Network

The neural network proposed in this paper hierarchically processes time series data and has the function which becomes the basis of intellectual behavior of not only bacteria but also evolved animals.At first, time series data are divided into sequences of subsequences in which the same element does not appear multiple times.The neural network that recognizes/generates the obtained subsequence is familiar to basic behavior of nerve cells and is called a Basic Unit.General time series data have a hierarchical structure.The lowest level is the sequence of the subsequence obtained as a result of division.A neural network composed of hierarchically connected Basic Units processes time series data.Hierarchical processing is performed according to the context structure of time series data.The place where the Basic Units are activated moves from upper layer to lower layer or in the opposite direction as processing progresses.It is possible to predict the next processing by using the contextual position of the current executing process.There is a plurality of neural networks which process time series data according to the category of time series data.Isomorphism between neural networks brings about isomorphism of context structure of processing process.The behavior of mirror neurons is explained using the interaction between isomorphic neural networks.
Riskin’: Software Risk Management as an Environmental Change Process for Providing Leadership Opportunities

Developing and maintaining software is an extremely risky process. The success of the project demands effective management of the risks. Traditional theory of software risk management just includes the risks from the perspective of general project management, avoiding project environmental changes. Unlike traditional risk management theory, issues during a software development project are actually “change management” challenges. Successful change management requires leadership and effective teams. Any change could be either a potential crisis or a great opportunity, so leaders can make decisions for translating changes into opportunities. Risk management teaching strategies related to software projects leave aside the development of managerial and leadership skills. In addition, effective team characteristics affecting the project performance are avoided. In this paper, we propose Riskin’, a game-based approach for teaching the importance of leadership decisions and effective team characteristics in change management process, and, therefore, risk management process. This game practice leads to a novel way to understand risks as leadership opportunities to develop effective teams.
PSoC based haemoglobin measurement system

Globally, anemia is ranked to be the third killer disease and it continues to be a serious problem for health as well as social and economic development. It is estimated that iron-deficiency anemia affects 42% of children under age 5 and 53% of children from 5 to 14 years of age. In worldwide, the majority of the 56 million pregnant women and 468 million non-pregnant women affected by anemia live in sub- Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. Also, children affected by anemia will result in impaired cognitive performance, motor development and language development. This project is that of a hemoglobin measurement system using PSoC. Hence the proposed project aims at constructing a non-invasive system for haemoglobin measurement.

A Study on “FIFTY HELPS FOR THE BEGINNER IN THE USE OF THE KOREAN LANGUAGE” as a Korean Language Study Book for Missionary.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in the composition of the longest periodical of the missionaries’ Korean language study books, “FIFTY HELPS FOR THE BEGINNER IN THE USE OF THE KOREAN LANGUAGE”. Based on the characteristics of this book, I discussed the historical value of this book in Korean language education. First, I summarized the bibliographic information of various editions of this book, and explained the changes due to revision of the editions, in particular changes in composition and changes in detailed learning items. We also discussed the meaning of the “Help” used in the title of this book, and reviewed the usefulness of this book. As a result, it was found that the learning items presented in this book were not chapters for grammar learning but chunk expressions of Korean corresponding to English aiming to learn idiomatic expressions more quickly for missionary work.

The Bretan Case: a Paradox between Value and Promotion

Abstract On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the passing of the Transylvanian musician Nicolae Bretan (1887-1968), known during the interwar period due to his complex field of activity (interpreter, director, conductor, composer), we consider it necessary to elaborate a study that is critical for several reasons. Starting with the dilemmatic comments existent in the current bibliography, we propose, on the one hand, to systematize the information regarding the reception of his personality in the context of the age in which he lived and worked, and on the other hand, to outline the premises that generated the appearance of controversial writings, but especially to question their effects on the deformed stylistic perception of the musician at national and international level. We consider that this is one of the ways in which the “phenomenon of Bretan’s rebirth” can be objectively reevaluated, appreciating the existence and real contributions of a minor musician, who, although endowed with talent, could not be in the same compositional direction that included national models (George Enescu, Mihail Jora, Paul Constantinescu), are comparable to those in the universal space of the first half of the 20th century.
Comprehensive integration of linguistic features in a human inspired speech recognition architecture

Despite the fact that speech recognition involves a fair amount of natural language processing, there has been very little collaboration between linguists and speech recognition engineers. Nowadays, both domains use similar techniques such as log linear models and graphical models. Moreover, the advent of new powerful algorithms allows the deployment of probabilistic models that are no longer limited by the oversimpli cations present in most of today’s speech recognition systems and should allow successful integration of rich linguistic knowledge in automatic speech recognition systems. In this project, a novel speech recognition framework and a set of accompanying, contemporary linguistic models is co-developed. The envisioned layered architecture combines local inference with inter-layer message passing, similar to what is believed to underlay human speech recognition. Compared to the current architectures, such layer-wise structure facilitates the incorporation of additional knowledge (linguistic or other), and hence is better equipped to model the nenuances and complex inter-dependencies in speech.
Implementing Database Technologies for the Analysis of Record-Keeping Documentation from the Period of the Great Terror – Protocols of the Militia Troikas (On the Materials of Altai Krai)

The article discusses the practice of using database technology to study an important source on the history of "the Great Terror" and the activities of extrajudicial bodies of mass repression -triplets of the NKVD and the police of the Altai Territory.Particular attention is paid to the consideration of the results obtained in the processing of information from the protocols of the "militia troika", as the repression against the marginalized members of society is the least studied issue among the problems of repressive policies of 1937-1938.The materials compiled by the author of the database allow studying in detail the scope and characteristics of repression carried out by the forces of the "militia troika", identifying the main target groups in respect of which the actions of this non-judicial body were directed.The use of database technology to work with the protocols of triples made it possible to fix the changes that occurred in the composition of the "troika", to determine the multidimensional sociometric characteristics of convicted persons, as well as the impact of the facts of their personal and criminal biography on the severity of sentences issued by the "troika".

The use of information and communication technology is one of the technological developments that can provide benefits in the field of education such as in the management of school payments. The school payment process requires fast and accurate data processing in terms of payment and storage until report generation. The purpose of this research is to make a school payment information system that is fast and accurate in its processing. With extreme programming method is expected to help resolve existing problems. The expected results will be an information system that can help the payment process in the school that is able to process payment data quickly and accurately to produce a payment data that can be used as a guideline for decision making by the school head masters. The expected form of report can also be more easily understood than before using an information system. In the process of storing data it is also expected to be better because it does not use paper but can already be stored in a database system that is connected to an information system
Pronunciation Teaching Techniques and Materials

Pronunciation, just like the other subcomponents of the linguistic system, has to be taught/learnt, and it can hardly take care of itself. Teaching pronunciation involves using a great variety of techniques that can be employed by the teacher in order to enhance the learning process. Apart from techniques, there are numerous tools, which also, to a great extent, contribute to better understanding of the speech processes and facilitate both perception and production.
