Tolerant Testers of Image Properties

We initiate a systematic study of tolerant testers of image properties or, equivalently, algorithms that approximate the distance from a given image to the desired property. Image processing is a particularly compelling area of applications for sublinear-time algorithms and, specifically, property testing. However, for testing algorithms to reach their full potential in image processing, they have to be tolerant, which allows them to be resilient to noise. We design efficient approximation algorithms for the following fundamental questions: What fraction of pixels have to be changed in an image so it becomes a half-plane? A representation of a convex object? A representation of a connected object? More precisely, our algorithms approximate the distance to three basic properties (being a half-plane, convexity, and connectedness) within a small additive error ε, after reading poly (1/ε) pixels, independent of the image size. We also design an efficient agnostic proper PAC learner of convex sets (continuous and discrete) in two dimensions under the uniform distribution. Our algorithms require very simple access to the input: uniform random samples for the half-plane property and convexity, and samples from uniformly random blocks for connectedness. However, the analysis of the algorithms, especially for convexity, requires many geometric and combinatorial insights. For example, in the analysis of the algorithm for convexity, we define a set of reference polygons P ε such that (1) every convex image has a nearby polygon in P ε and (2) one can use dynamic programming to quickly compute the smallest empirical distance to a polygon in P ε .

Economics’ Digitalization—New Challenges to Engineering Education

Digital Era and the growing competition require higher education graduates have skills relevant for competing under conditions of rapid technology development and economical growth. The system of engineering education should ensure the quality of engineers that are needed for the business and society. For these purposes, there are new opportunities, which envisages the use of virtual reality, simulations and other IT. The requirements for the automotive industry have risen dramatically in recent years: cheap vehicles, a wider range of models and higher quality are needed to reach the global market. The intelligent functions of the vehicles’ on-board systems are expanded through driver assistance systems and IT integration with various devices. The peculiarity of the proposed method is to use in the educational system such digital environment, that is implemented in industry. We suggest using Blended learning, which can become one of key solutions to existing problems in an educational sphere. Interaction with business will allow educators to learn new technologies and apply them in teaching students. This is especially important in transition to Digital Era.
Computing Anomaly Score Threshold with Autoencoders Pipeline

Autoencoders neural networks are considered an unsupervised learning algorithm which can be used for detecting anomalies on datasets. In anomaly detection systems powered by autoencoders, the evaluated samples are sorted by the reconstruction error and the anomaly score threshold is set by experts. This threshold helps to select the set of anomaly candidates. In most of the real-world scenarios, the anomaly score threshold estimation is a non-trivial task even for an expert. This paper contains a proposal for an iterative training method based on an autoencoders pipeline to automatically compute the anomaly score threshold. The proposed method achieves encouraging and consistent results collected through the experimentation over two well-known datasets. According to the network configuration, training and tuning, the estimated anomaly score threshold from the proposed method is close to the best possible for the dataset.

Exploring logical and hierarchical information to map relational databases into ontologies

Ontologies are formal specifications of conceptualisations. Their designs require to understand the concepts involved in the domain to be mapped. One well-known method to produce ontologies is to extract their concepts from relational databases. We conducted a practical study over a real-world scenario on applying existing rules and we identified open issues to be addressed, such as the utilisation of logical metadata as a proper vocabulary, the implementation targeted to specific domains and mappings of hierarchical and self-hierarchical structures. In this paper, we present a novel approach that overcomes these issues. Our solution uses physical and logical models to enrich the terminology produced in the target ontology. It also contains a more comprehensive set of rules, taking into account instances and (self) hierarchies. We validate our approach with two experiments from the healthcare domain as input.
Aerosol extraction and direct laser ablation ICP-MS analysis of the fine and ultrafine fractions of regolith

The &lt;10, &lt;4, &lt;2.5 and &lt;1 µm fractions of eight regolith samples have been extracted as aerosols, then analysed for more than 60 elements by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). Precision and accuracy rivals that of conventional digestion and ICP-MS analysis for most elements, but the aerosol extraction and ablation approach can be completed within 30 min, avoids compromising the sample by screening, column settling, fusion and/or digestion, and includes data for elements such as Br, Cl, I and Se that are conventionally analysed by individual procedures. Major element chemistry and scanning electron microscope (SEM) imagery show that the aerosol fractions of regolith are dominated by kaolinite, with quartz in aeolian regolith. The aerosol fractions of Si- and Ca-rich regolith have higher trace element concentrations than the coarser fraction (0.45–2 mm), but chalcophile elements are depleted in the aerosols of Fe-rich regolith relative to the coarser fraction. Improvements in in-field analytical technology coupled with aerosol extraction mean that fine and ultrafine fraction chemistry can be used to guide mineral exploration programmes in close to real time. Supplementary material : The results of the laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) analysis of filter papers are available at https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.c.4562807

Autonomous Gripping and Carrying of Polyhedral Shaped Object based on Plane Detection by a Quadruped Tracked Mobile Robot

Recently, it is highly expected that robots work instead of human in a dangerous site such as disaster area. Sufficient working ability is required for such robots as well as moving ability. Thus, we present a method for autonomous gripping and carrying of a polyhedral shaped object by a mobile robot with multiple manipulation arms based on plane detection. Using this method, the robot can calculate appropriate observation positions for the detection of gripping planes and positions of the object. We apply the method to a quadruped tracked robot and verify its effectiveness in experiments for autonomous gripping and carrying of a box shaped object.
Blind Motion Deblurring for Online Defect Visual Inspection

Online defect visual inspection (ODVI) works while the object has to be static, otherwise the relative motion between camera and object will create motion blur in images. In order to implement ODVI in dynamic scene, it developes one blind motion deblurring method whose objective is to estimate blur kernel parameters precisely. In the proposed method, Radon transform on superpixels determinated the blur angle, and the autocorrelation function based on magnitude (AFM) of the preprocessed blurred image was utilized to identify the blur length. With the projection relationship discussed in this study, it will be unnecessary to rotate the blurred image or the axis. The proposed method is of high accuracy and robustness to noise, and it can somehow handle saturated pixels. To validate the proposed method, experiments have been carried out on synthetic images both in noise free and noisy situations. The results show that the method outperforms existing approaches. With the modified Richardson–Lucy deconvolution, it demonstrates that the proposed method is effective for ODVI in terms of subjective visual quality.

At present, there are more and more people learning Korean, but there are still many problems in the process of education, the most basic and primary problem being the problem of pronunciation education. The research on pronunciation education is still in its infancy, and there are few domestic works. Based on the above reasons, this article aims at finding out the differences in Chinese and Korean consonant systems from the theoretical aspect, to further promote the Korean pronunciation pedagogy. Specifically, this article summarizes the common pronunciation errors of Chinese students in the position and manner of articulation, tries to find out rules and theoretical basis that can be followed in the articulation process, and ultimately facilitates more efficient teaching and learning methods.
Construction on Lot Tracking System for Failure Cost Reduction of a Small and Medium Precision Parts Processing Company

Recently, automobile manufacturing companies, which are major customers of them, are requiring IATF 16949 (ISO/TS 16949) certification as a mandatory requirement to secure product quality. In particular, IATF 16949 : 2016, revised in October 2016, was reinforced product traceability requirements for production information management by lot in the production process. Therefore, small and medium-sized precision parts processing companies in the automobile industry are very difficult to survive due to quality and price competition for customers satisfaction.MES (Manufacturing Execution System) is required to solve this problem. However, small and medium sized precision parts processing enterprises are reluctant to introduce the MES which is not suitable for the manufacturing environment of them such as high cost and low utilization. Even if the system is introduced, it is difficult to operate and maintain the system because the lack of computer manpower.In this paper, we propose a method for building a lot tracking system for small and medium precision parts processing companies by reviewing relevant literature and analyzing cases. In addition, by managing the production history for each lot of the final product in the system, we will grasp the effect of reducing the quality failure cost obtained by minimizing the range of defect selection.
한국어교육을 위한 옛이야기 ‘다시쓰기’ -구술성을 중심으로-

Retelling old Korean tales implemented in Korean language education refers to the work of trimming and abridging the story. This study discusses the key retelling methodologies. Firstly, tales that are most representative of the common Korean traditional cultures should be made into a standardized text including the basic elements of old Korean tales. It is crucial to avoid indiscriminative use of stories written for children, and to amend parts that have been distorted during the Japanese colonial period. The most important consideration when retelling is to reflect the ‘orality’ style which is the core characteristic of oral literature. The narrative structure of the tales also implements the typical patterns of oral texts. This allows the difficulty of the texts to be modified to suit the foreign learner’s ability understand Korean language. Additionally, the specific descriptions in rewritten traditional tales’ narrative voice should adequately use “telling” and “showing” methods. Both methods of narration allow not only the delivery of the story but also allows implementation of rhetorical interventions for Korean language education. Finally, repetitive and conventional idiomatic expressions were used frequently throughout the oral literature. This relates closely to remembering these stories hence this can be reflected in retelling old Korean tales to increase effectiveness.(Sookmyung Women’s University)
J2J-GR: Journal-to-Journal References by Greek Researchers

The Hellenic Academic Libraries Link (HEAL-Link, https://www.heal-link.gr/ ) operates since 1998. Its members include all the academic and/or research institutions operating under the auspices of the Hellenic Ministry of Education, plus the Academy of Athens, the National Library, and the Institute of Educational Policy. The present paper reports on the research effort undertaken in order to facilitate the decision-making process and the development of a HEAL-Link strategy plan. The focus is on scientific journals the Greek academic/research community publish their works with, and on the journals they reference. It is assumed that when a researcher makes a reference to an article in a scientific journal, the latter is considered to comprise a valuable source of information. The more references made to articles published with a given journal, the higher the value of the latter as a source of scientific information to the HEAL-Link user community. In order to exploit the aforementioned research goal, bibliographic metadata from nearly 63,000 research publications have been collected and pre-processed. The publications involve at least one (co-)author affiliated to a Greek academic/research institution. They span over a period of nine years (2010–2018), and nearly 10,000 journals. The bibliographic data include metadata on subject (discipline) area(s). The findings are made public via a Web application ( http://j2j.heal-link.gr/ ). The latter utilizes interactive graphs that facilitate the interpretation of the relevant bibliography data, and it is seen to comprise a springboard for conducting further data analytic and mining tasks.
Modeling Reliable Intelligent Blockchain with Architectural Pattern

The emerging of blockchain technology has been associated with the revolution of World Wide Web that going to transform from Web 2.0 into Web 3.0. The blockchain network reduces the dependency of centralized and turning into decentralized network in the Web 3.0 era. In the decentralized network, the threat of data breaching can be eliminated where none of party has the authority to control over user digital badges in education. In this case, all the data will be distributed over the whole network. Furthermore, the weak vulnerability of Internet of Things (IoT) toward Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) has stimulated the development of blockchain technology as a solution. Blockchain technology has released a computer program as smart contract with the generation of token to authorize the flow of user into IoT network for strengthen the security and privacy of IoT network. Last but not least, the challenge to develop an effective blockchain network is the most challenging task since it requires deep understanding of blockchain technology.
EFFECTS OF TIN MINING ACTIVITIES ON THE SOILS IN PINGEL AND ENVIRONS, TORO, LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA, NORTHEASTERN NIGERIA

Tin mining have long attracted the interest of geologist because of the economic significance and serious impact on mankind. There is paucity of empirical information on Tin mining effect in Pingel and its Environs. Hence, this study examines the effect of Tin mining activities on the soils of Pingel and Environs, Toro, LGA Local Government Area, Bauchi State Nigeria. Eight (8) rock samples were analysed under petrographic studies and seven (7) different soil samples were collected using hand trovel at four different locations namely Mana, Pingel, Doka and Kulfana. The laboratory analysis includes: Thin sectioning, petrographic analysis, geochemical analysis (X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer (XRF)), Focus group discussion (FGD), questionnaires and health data were captured as supportive tool of the research. The geochemical analysis reveals that 36 trace and rare elements were found in the soil sample with high concentration values of copper, zinc, lead, and zircon ranging between 170 to 300, 79 to 3850, 80 to1000, 50300 to 650ppm while the lowest is the analysis is serilium (Se) with concentration value range between 0.0006 to 0.0001. The study further examines the human perception of human to tin mining; their health aspect was particularly captured. The study concludes that there are a lot of contaminations and pollution which occur as a result of tin mining activities in the study area. The impact of heavy metals in the soils has adversely affected the livelihood of the localities, which call for attention in the present research. These explains how each of these elements pose danger to human health when consumed excessively through their drinking water or other means resulting to serious diseases such as; liver damage, elephantiasis, high fever in children, loss of pregnancies, behavioral effect. Therefore, more efficient and better practices such as soil basins and traps should be designed in the mining sites to prevent the heavy metals from moving to further distance, awareness to the localities about what they eat especially their drinking water which is an easy contagious substance and finally, government should come to the aid of the environment to embark a policy that will bring an end to these problems. Hospitals, schools and good roads should be constructed before the commencement of any mining activities in the area.

Abstract, Research at Doro Mpana Site started with a report from the Head of Kandai Satu Village about the findings of a number of objects which are suspected of being archaeological remains in the form of earthenware fragments, ceramics, metal objects, human bone fragments, and Batu Dimpa. Batu Dimpa is a term given by the community for flat stones which are believed to be ancient grave markers. The purpose of this study was to determine the activities carried out by the community of Doro Mpana Site in the past. Data was collected through excavation, survey, and interview methods. Data were analyzed using specific analysis that focused on the physical characteristics of artifacts and contextual analysis related to the connection between archeological data. Three excavation squares were opened in this first phase of research. The results of excavation are earthenware fragments, foreign ceramic fragments, andesite stones, Batu Dimpa, brick structures, and human bone fragments. In the past, Doro Mpana site was once used for burial. Foreign ceramics findings show that the community in the past had been in contact with the outside world in trade relations. Utilization of Doro Mpana as a settlement in more recent time is supported by brick findings and some historical records.
