Relieving Genetic Programming from Coefficient Learning for Symbolic Regression via Correlation and Linear Scaling

The difficulty of learning optimal coefficients in regression models using only genetic operators has long been a challenge in genetic programming for symbolic regression. As a simple but effective remedy it has been proposed to perform linear scaling of model outputs prior to a fitness evaluation. Recently, the use of a correlation coefficient-based fitness function with a post-processing linear scaling step for model alignment has been shown to outperform error-based fitness functions in generating symbolic regression models. In this study, we compare the impact of four evaluation strategies on relieving genetic programming (GP) from learning coefficients in symbolic regression and focusing on learning the more crucial model structure. The results from 12 datasets, including ten real-world tasks and two synthetic datasets, confirm that all these strategies assist GP to varying degrees in learning coefficients. Among the them, correlation fitness with one-time linear scaling as post-processing, due to be the most efficient while bringing notable benefits to the performance, is the recommended strategy to relieve GP from learning coefficients.
Comparing the expressive power of Strongly-Typed and Grammar-Guided Genetic Programming

Since Genetic Programming (GP) has been proposed, several flavors of GP have arisen, each with their own strengths and limitations. Grammar-Guided and Strongly-Typed GP (GGGP and STGP, respectively) are two popular flavors that have the advantage of allowing the practitioner to impose syntactic and semantic restrictions on the generated programs. GGGP makes use of (traditionally context-free) grammars to restrict the generation of (and the application of genetic operators on) individuals. By guiding this generation according to a grammar, i.e. a set of rules, GGGP improves performance by searching for an good-enough solution on a subset of the search space. This approach has been extended with Attribute Grammars to encode semantic restrictions, while Context-Free Grammars would only encode syntactic restrictions. STGP is also able to restrict the shape of the generated programs using a very simple grammar together with a type system. In this work, we address the question of which approach has more expressive power. We demonstrate that STGP has higher expressive power than Context-Free GGGP and less expressive power than Attribute Grammatical Evolution.
Top Indonesia's Journal Efficiency Analysis: Bibliometrics (Scientific Strength) and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA)

This study aims to analyze the efficiency of a journal by examining the correlation between the number of researchers associated with the journal and the expenses borne by researchers for publication concerning the scientific strengths achieved. The analysis is conducted through the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) approach. The data for scientific journal articles is collected from the metadata of Scopus, and WoS (Web of Science) was indexed in SINTA 1. Meanwhile, the APC (Article publication charge) data was obtained from the journal website. The input variables include the author, the editorial team, and the APC. In contrast, the output variables in this study are the scientific strength (publications and citations) generated. The study showed that the SINTA 1 journal indexed in Scopus and WoS with a DEA value of 1,000 was Operations and Supply Chain Management: An International Journal. The DEA value for journals indexed in Scopus and WoS is greater compared to the DEA value of journals indexed in WoS, as opposed to the DEA value of journals indexed in Scopus, but the difference is small.

Interactive Visualization Dashboard for Exploring Scientific Publications in Indonesia

Numerous bibliometric investigations have been carried out in Indonesia, primarily relying on publication data indexed exclusively in Scopus. This study aims to leverage scientific publication data from the Indonesian Scientific Journal Database (ISJD) by constructing an interactive visualization dashboard for the analysis of Indonesian scientific publications. This dashboard is expected to become an additional reference for researchers in the field of bibliometrics. The stages of making this dashboard consist of Identification of visualization needs referring to previous research; data feasibility check; data correction and update; data visualization; and evaluation to assess the correctness of the data and the resulting visualization. Evaluation results indicate that the dashboard's analysis system is functioning effectively, offering diverse analysis options. Nonetheless, the system has limitations related to data quality in ISJD, necessitating improvements in terms of completeness, appropriateness, and data updates. Future research will enhance the dashboard by incorporating citation analysis calculations to evaluate the performance of authors and journals.

Responsible ACI: Expanding the Influence of Animal-Computer Interaction

With emerging technologies powered by AI and IoT affecting animals in unprecedented ways, a question for the ACI community is how to expand the field's influence so that the computing interactions to which animals are exposed do not harm but benefit them. This position paper proposes that more ACI work could: focus on the risks that technology poses for animals and the impacts of technology that does not necessarily target them, as well as on the benefits of technologies that target them; re-frame human-centric ethical frameworks produced by governance bodies from a multispecies perspective against which to foreground impacts of technologies on animals; explicitly relate ACI work to global societal priorities set by governance bodies against which to highlight how an animal-centred perspective can support those. The paper encourages researchers to take responsibility for the challenge of giving animals representation amongst anthropocentric pressures and, despite necessary compromises, to continue to push for animal-centred technological innovation.

Additional Measures to Establish Your Digital Identity

Developing a sustainable academic research digital identity requires a commitment to create, aggregate, populate, disseminate, and curate your professional activities across your career lifecycle. One approach is to maintain a personal website that includes, but is not limited to, open access and open science, data repository, conference presentations, professional organizations affiliations, and service activities. A personal website of your academic research career will require upfront minimal financial investment, continuity, and sweat equity. In this chapter the author will use a personal case study using participant observer research method. This was used to develop the idea for a personal website of professional activities as an information science doctoral student. A participant observer is defined as “a researcher who gathers data through participating and observing in a setting where he or she develops a sustained relationship with people while they go about their normal activities” (Schutt, Investigating the social world, 5th ed., 2006). The author observed his doctoral committee chair’s professional website that included many components of his career in the form of a professional website identity in which he chronicled his academic development over time. The author explored several web hosting platforms that resulted in the final selection of Arvixe web hosting PersonalClass option. The author developed a personal website of professional activities modeled after his doctoral committee chair. The website includes several topical headings such as Research, Scholarly Works, Awards, Teaching, Service, and Curriculum Vitae. A personal website of professional activities chronicling your academic career is an added measure to establish your digital identity. Using a personal website of professional activities as a framework of reference, this book chapter will explore Open Access, data repositories, other activities, and ORCID.
THE COGNITIVE-PRAGMATIC ASPECTS OF THE INAUGURAL SPEECH OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF KOREA YOON SUK YEOL ON MAY 10, 2022, IN CONTEMPORAL POLITICAL DISCOURSE

Background. The article is devoted to the contemporary Korean political discourse taking into account the cultural context, namely the high-contextuality and hermeneutics of Korean culture. Politically oriented texts are always an indicator of national values, because political thinking and linguistic specificity of public speeches are in close interaction. The political speech actualizes the religious and philosophical traditions of the Korean-Asian civilizational model, is characterized by a high level of formality, focuses on the use of language formulas, and unfolds narratives important for modern Korean society. Methods . It is through the systematization of all the above empirical data that the cognitive model of political discourse is outlined and the speech is defined as an integral process of interaction of cognitive, communicative and pragmatic factors, as well as a means of effective implementation of influence on the audience. In order to reveal implicitly expressed connections between language, power and ideology in the text of the inaugural speech of the acting president of the Republic of Korea, Yoon Suk Yeol, the method of critical discourse analysis was used. Results . Conclusions about the qualitative characteristics of political communication were made on the basis of quantitative data using content analysis. The suggestive potential of a political speech is realized through the structural and syntactic organization of the text - this is a special complex-wave rhythm based on the repetition and alternation of formal and lexical-grammatical elements and the functioning of dynamic text groups centered on key words. Conclusions . Determining the hierarchy of values relevant only within Korean culture, for which political discourse was created, is a primary task for decoding the inner content of political life, reproducing communicative intentions, and when analyzing the political discourse of East Asian countries.
Co-designing Enrichment Toys with Bottlenose Dolphins: Playfulness as a Corrective to Anthropocentrism

This article discusses the process of co-designing enrichment toys for non-human animals under human care, offering a reflective account of this process, as it was carried out in direct and playful collaboration with a group of bottlenose dolphins at Mediterraneo Marine Park, which is located in Malta. It tells the story of an attempt to produce an active and fair context for multispecies negotiation. Leveraging thoughts and observations that emerged in moments of interspecies friction, we propose a way to critically reframe our biases and our relationships with non-human animals under human care. The paper presents the act of designing in terms of its possibility to go beyond being a passive reaction to a problem to become a conscious and deliberate process that addresses sociocultural issues, particularly those concerning power imbalances and unfair representations. In the case presented here, a goal beyond the immediate enrichment of the lives of bottlenose dolphins in human care was the reshaping of the social practices and power relationships that determine those existences.
Bank accounts, bank concentration and mobile money innovations

The present study investigates how increasing bank accounts and bank concentration affect mobile money innovations in 148 countries. It builds on scholarly and policy concerns in the literature that increasing bank accounts may not be having the desired effects on financial inclusion on the one hand and on the other, that bank concentration which is a proxy for market power is a relevant mobile money innovation demand factor. The empirical evidence is based on Tobit regressions. From the findings, it is apparent that boosting bank accounts is positively related to the three mobile money innovations (i.e. mobile bank accounts and the mobile phone used to send money). Moreover, some critical levels of bank account penetration require complementary policies in order to maintain the positive relationship between boosting bank accounts and positive outcomes in terms of money mobile innovations. Conversely, financial inclusion in terms of the three mobile money innovations is not significantly apparent upon enhancing bank concentration. Policy implications are discussed in the light of the provided thresholds for complementary policies.
Analyzing Factors Affecting Credit Card Fraud: Four Model-based Approach

With the proliferation of the internet, credit card fraud has become a pressing issue, leading to substantial financial losses and undermining trust among consumers. This research aims to elucidate the determinants associated with credit card fraud. By importing and cleansing two databases from Kaggle, we constructed two heatmaps for comparison, subsequently selecting the most suitable database for further analysis. We then established four models: Linear Regression model, Random Forest classifier, Logistic Regression model, and Decision Tree model. By comparing the confusion matrices and ROC curves of each model, the Linear Regression model emerged as the most proficient. Ultimately, three highly correlative factors were identified in relation to credit card fraud: High-risk country, Total number of declines per day, and 6-month chargeback frequency. The findings from this research pave the way for bolstering financial security, enhancing the efficacy of fraud detection, and thereby mitigating potential losses for consumers.
On Integrating eBPF into Pluginized Protocols

eBPF is a popular technology originating from the Linux kernel that enables safely running user-provided programs in a kernel-context. This technology opened the door for efficient programming in the operating system, especially in its network stack. However, its applicability is not limited to the Linux kernel. Various efforts leveraged the eBPF Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) as the basis of other networking related use cases outside of the Linux kernel. This paper focuses on the pluginized protocols' use case such as PQUIC and xBGP where the eBPF ISA serves as the basis to execute plugins providing per-session protocol behavior. It first quickly describes how the Linux kernel builds around this eBPF ISA to provide enhanced in-kernel network programmability. Then, the paper considers the case of pluginized protocols. Leveraging eBPF outside of the Linux kernel environment requires complementing the eBPF ISA to meet the pluginized protocols' requirements. This paper details these integration efforts. Based on the lessons learned from these, it finally concludes by an applicability discussion of the eBPF ISA to other use cases.
Can We Save the Public Internet?

The goal of this short document is to explain why recent developments in the Internet's infrastructure are problematic. As context, we note that the Internet was originally designed to provide a simple universal service - global end-to-end packet delivery - on which a wide variety of end-user applications could be built. The early Internet supported this packet-delivery service via an interconnected collection of commercial Internet Service Providers (ISPs) that we will refer to collectively as the "public Internet." The Internet has fulfilled its packet-delivery mission far beyond all expectations and is now the dominant global communications infrastructure. By providing a level playing field on which new applications could be deployed, the Internet has enabled a degree of innovation that no one could have foreseen. To improve performance for some common applications, "enhancements" such as caching (as in content-delivery networks) have been gradually added to the Internet. The resulting performance improvements are so significant that such enhancements are now effectively necessary to meet current content delivery demands. Despite these tangible benefits, this document argues that the way these enhancements are currently deployed seriously undermines the sustainability of the public Internet and could lead to an Internet infrastructure that reaches fewer people and is largely concentrated among only a few large-scale providers. We wrote this document because we fear that these developments are now decidedly tipping the Internet's playing field towards those who can deploy these enhancements at massive scale, which in turn will limit the degree to which the future Internet can support unfettered innovation. This document begins by explaining our concerns but goes on to articulate how this unfortunate fate can be avoided. To provide more depth for those who seek it, we provide a separate addendum with further detail.
Function follows Form or Form follows Function – The Legal Nature of CBDC

Abstract 211 Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) is often described as the future of money, pictured to function as a new, widely adopted means of payment. Whilst economic and public law implications of CBDC issuance have received close scrutiny, private law issues – especially the question of CBDC’s legal nature – have received little attention. This is surprising, given that the function of money as a means of payment is primarily shaped by the private law framework. So far, this framework is tailored to money’s specific forms of appearance, either as (tangible) property or as (intangible) claims against financial intermediaries. Early research has sought to simply classify CBDC within this dichotomy, according to its design respectively being token or account based. Assuming a German private law point of view, this paper will put such classification to the test as regards the intended “European CBDC”, the digital euro. It will show that the focus on token versus account is misguided and ultimately unhelpful, as the digital euro would in neither form fit within the existing legal framework. Drawing on the discussions surrounding the legal nature of cryptocurrencies and cryptoassets, as well as the recent experience with the dematerialisation of securities, it will be argued that the envisioned dematerialisation of cash offers the opportunity to re-think the legal nature of such new money, based not on its form, but on its function as a circulating means of payment. Putting function before form allows technology-neutral answers to related issues, such as the legal assessment of CBDC transfer, ultimately equipping private law for the future of money.
