Using First-and Third-person POV to Bridge Cultural Misunderstandings in Cognitive Learning System of Different Cultural Communication in Simulated Crowd

Learning about cultural differences between individuals is a challenging topic because people from many different countries have to work, live, and communicate together, but everyone's background affects their perception. Herein, we create a virtual cultural learning assistance system that can help people learn and interact with cultural agents and learn conversational skills. Learning from simulated first- and third-person camera points of view (POVs) is a method through which participants obtain different perspectives and understandings of a situation. This experiment was conducted with Japanese participants, who were asked to learn from and interact with a digital avatar acting as a customer agent and shopkeeper at the Thai night market. The behavior of the customer agent and the shopkeeper avatar were designed based on the Hofstede cultural dimension with Thai cultural values (Individualism:20, Masculinity:34, Uncertainty avoidance:64). A significant difference between first- and third-person POV groups was found on the individualism dimension (IDV). Results showed that most Japanese participants in the third-person POV group understood the Thai culture IDV better from our simulation than those in the first-person POV group. Furthermore, participants from both first- and third-person POV groups gave a similar score for Thai culture in the masculinity and uncertainty avoidance dimensions. Thus, this scenario and setting were suitable for learning and understanding Thai cultural communication at the night flea-market in both first- and third-person POVs.
Introduction to continuous photocounting effects on the quantized optical field

Abstract In this manuscript, we explore the effects of continuous measurements upon the quantized electromagnetic field through a series of simple examples. For this purpose, we consider the Srinivas-Davies model to describe the optical field dynamics probed continuously by a photodetector. Through the application of this continuous photodetection model to some specific situations, it is possible to cover some basic concepts of quantum mechanics such as the principle of superposition, the collapse of the wave function, the probabilistic character of the possible outcomes associated with projective measurements, as well as some advanced topics such as the description of open quantum systems, irreversible processes in quantum mechanics, decoherence and dissipation associated with non-unitary evolution of quantum systems. Besides, we also consider the important concept of entanglement between two electromagnetic fields and how it is affected by the photodetection process. This work aims to provide complementary material for undergraduate and graduate students interested in the effects of measuring devices acting on quantum systems.
EdBoard

Breadboards are a common tool for designing, prototyping, and testing electronics; however, their black-box design and fine-motor-skill requirements make them difficult for children to use. While there are a variety of breadboard alternatives, we see the need for a platform that prepares children to use a traditional breadboard. In this paper, we discuss the design of EdBoard, a platform with a transparent design and magnetic connections that not only teaches circuitry principles but also works as glass-box scaffolding to prepare children to create circuitry with traditional breadboards. We then discuss our comparative study, which evaluates EdBoards and breadboards as learning tools for children. This is assessed through activity-completion time, the fine-motor-skill difficulties, and the confusion about the tools' functionalities.

The toolkit arranges the translated research under qualities (dimensions) that the research aims to support in children, such as privacy and security, STEM learning, or executive function. Research findings under each dimension are organized in a way that aligns with the design process and project phases.
Neural Entity Linking on Technical Service Tickets

Entity linking, the task of mapping textual mentions to known entities, has recently been tackled using contextualized neural networks. We address the question whether these results - reported for large, high-quality datasets such as Wikipedia - transfer to practical business use cases, where labels are scarce, text is low-quality, and terminology is highly domain-specific.Using an entity linking model based on BERT, a popular transformer network in natural language processing, we show that a neural approach outperforms and complements hand-coded heuristics, with improvements of about 20% top-1 accuracy. Also, the benefits of transfer learning on a large corpus are demonstrated, while fine-tuning proves difficult. Finally, we compare different BERT-based architectures and show that a simple sentence-wise encoding (Bi-Encoder) offers a fast yet efficient search in practice.
Geologic Setting of the Meadowbank Iron Fonnation-Hosted Gold Deposits

The Meadowbank gold deposits are located in the Archean Woodburn Lake group of the western Churchill Province. The stratigraphy, that hosts the deposits, consists of felsic to intermediate volcaniclastic rocks and interbedded iron formation. The stratigraphic sequence is polydeformed with four phases of deformation recognized regionally; two of which have substantially modified the geometry of the strata. The initial phase of deformation was a progressive transposition of the stratigraphy with tight to isoclinal folding which culminated in low angle high strain zones. This progressive deformation event appears to have controlled the distribution of gold mineralization. Overprinting, NE-SW shallow plunging folds further modified the geometry of the mineralized body.
Selection of an Information Source and Methodology for Calculating Solar Resources of the Kyrgyz Republic

Detailed data on incoming solar radiation are needed in the design of solar energy systems of any scale: from large PV plants to small off-grid systems. However, in most cases, obtaining data on measurements of solar radiation is connected with difficulties due to financial or technical restrictions. Often, ground-based measurements of solar radiation are either not carried out at all or only the value of the global horizontal intensity of solar radiation is measured. The aim of the present study is to review and to verify some existing empirical models of the global solar radiation and its components for the climatic conditions of Kyrgyzstan as well as to estimate the applicability of Meteonorm database model for the available solar radiation in the territory of Kyrgyzstan. The necessity to select the most suitable models of the solar radiation is called by the lack of similar studies on this direction for the conditions of the country.

Prediction of Suspect Activity Trajectory in Food Safety Area Based on Multiple U-Model Algorithm

Modelling and predicting the suspect activity trajectory are of great importance for preventing and fighting crime in the food safety area. Combing artificial intelligence and the multiple U-model algorithm, this paper represents a novel approach to predict the suspect activity trajectory. Based on social text data, emotional assessment is conducted using the LSTM network to detect food safety criminal suspects. Activity trajectories of criminal suspects are clustered using the graphic clustering method based on the GPS data. U-model with the sliding window algorithm is proposed to model activity trajectories. Further, the multiple U-model strategy is proposed to predict the activity trajectory based on the accumulated model error of previous positions and multiple clustered trajectories. The simulation study shows that the proposed scheme can detect food safety criminal suspects and predict their activity trajectories effectively.

Benefits of the Opex Pro Application in Online Project Monitoring and Evaluation at PT. XYZ

Abstract Along with the process of globalization, information technology has become an inseparable part of the world of construction services. However, the use of information technology in the field of construction management is not as popular as compared to construction planning especially in the process of project monitoring and evaluation. The contractor must have an integrated information system to be able to support the process of monitoring and evaluation that is true and right so that objectives can be achieved according to plan. PT. XYZ is a contractor that creates an integrated software-based information system called Opex Pro that is used to support project monitoring and evaluation. Opex Pro is used on smartphones and has been implemented for a number of years, but the benefits and positive effects have yet to be measured. This study aims to identify components and analyze the benefits of implementing the Opex Pro application as a means of project monitoring and evaluation. The scope of the problems in this study is limited to the application of the Opex Pro Application in the Building Division of PT. XYZ with a sample project manager. Literature review is focused on construction management, information technology in the world of construction, project monitoring and evaluation, and management of construction resources. The quantitative approach was chosen as the research method and analysis was carried out on all selected samples. It is expected that the application of the Opex Pro application can have a positive impact on the project monitoring and evaluation process at PT. XYZ continuously.

Design for Energy Storage Springs of Universal Circuit Breakers Using Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm

To solve the imperfect springs structure parameters in the design of energy storage springs of the universal circuit breakers, and problems such as large volume of circuit breakers and low design efficiency, an approach to optimize the parameters of the energy storage springs of the circuit breakers is proposed based on the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm. First, the mathematical optimization model of energy storage springs and the constraints of the spring parameters are derived in accordance with the working principle of energy storage springs. Then combined with cloud model and cross operation, the ABC algorithm is improved, which can adjust the cross factor, accelerate the convergence speed of ABC algorithm and improve the global search ability. And the classical test-function simulations verify that the improved ABC algorithm is superior to other evolutionary algorithms. Finally, the two different types of energy storage springs optimization models of universal circuit breakers are experimentally analyzed by use of the improved ABC algorithm, and the corresponding springs’ parameters are calculated. The experiment results show that the proposed approach is effective, which can reasonably design the parameters of energy storage springs of circuit breakers and improve the design efficiency.
Compact Calibration-Free Eye-Tracking System for Students with Severe Physical and Intellectual Disabilities

Use of eye-tracking systems as a computer-input method to advance communication and visual behaviors has been recognized as effective for educating students with severe physical disability. We have also examined that technology for students with severe physical and intellectual disabilities (SPID), including profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD). We hypothesized that a calibration-free system can be useful for such students because it completely reduces the calibration load of any application software. Our earlier research supported the hypothesis, but highlighted the need for a more compact system. This research examined a compact-type calibration-free eye-tracking system for such students. We developed a prototype based on a compact 19-inch (48 cm) display. Results of trial use by two students in a special school suggest the prototype effectiveness, but additional difficulties were pointed out for the system fixation and long-term use by many more students.
Iclique Cloak Approach for Protecting Privacy of Mobile Location with Image Processing Techniques

The usage of handheld devices with network connectivity has become the usual one in everyone’s daily life. In this routine usage, almost everyone has an experience of misplacing or losing his or her cell phone. Recently, mobile devices such as cell phones have been equipped with Global Positioning System (GPS) receptors that allow us to get the Location Based Services (LBS)-based device coordinates that are considered a key feature of many future mobile applications with image processing techniques. In LBS technology, the IClique Cloak Algorithm helps to prevent from the attackers to locate the mobile clients. It has been used to incrementally maintain the maximal clique that has been needed for location cloaking in an undirected graph by travesring the path the device and find the similarity between the images to find the traversed path of the device. In this way, the system can update the location of the mobile device continuously and sends the location whenever it requested by the authenticated user.
Prediction of Student Acceptance Based on Android

Abstract State universities are the hope of most students who want to continue their education to a higher level after high school / equivalent. To enter college, students must take the selection test held by the desired university. For state universities the selection test is held simultaneously and simultaneously called the SBMPTN (Joint Selection to Enter State Universities). This selection is carried out nationally and the participants are all students who want to get the opportunity to enter a state university. To get results that are as expected, the participants must make some preparations including the Try Out. By doing SBMPTN Try Out, it is expected that participants can compete with other participants and can graduate according to their choice. Try Out can be done at the place of tutoring that holds it or by buying a book containing Try Out questions. Along with the development of Smartphone technology, a prediction system will be created from the results of an Android-based SBMPTN Try Out that will provide information on study programs and universities that are likely to receive. SBMPTN participant candidates can practice questions anywhere and anytime. The method that will be used is the Fisher-Yates Shuffle, which functions to scramble the questions.
