Research on Ocean Multitarget Tracking Control System Based on the Echo State Network

Wang, T. and Wang, X., 2019. Research on ocean multitarget tracking control system based on the echo state network. In: Li, L.; Wan, X., and Huang, X. (eds.), Recent Developments in Practices and Research on Coastal Regions: Transportation, Environment and Economy. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 98, pp. 235–238. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208.In recent years, with the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, the echo state network (ESN) has shown some advantages in nonlinear time series processing and dynamic prediction system, which has attracted extensive attention of domestic and foreign researchers. As an improved recurrent neural network, the ESN uses a large-scale sparse connection structure as the hidden layer. By adjusting the weights of output connections only, the whole training stage is made simply and efficiently, which overcomes the shortcomings of the classical recurrent neural network learning rules, such as being difficult to implement and having a long running time. The ESN has gradually become an important method for the prediction of nonlinear time series. Aiming at the slow tracking speed of traditional ocean multitarget tracking control system, this paper designs an ocean multitarget tracking control system based on the echo state network. Through the target detection algorithm, we select the ocean multiobjective control area and calculate the target center position. In this way, the result of the target state estimation is obtained. By confirming the target trajectory, the multiobjective ocean control based on the ESN is achieved. The simulation results show that the speed of the system is 22.78% higher than the traditional speed when it is designed for target control, which meets the requirements of ideal ocean multiobjective control.
Modelling linguistic vagueness and uncertainty in historical texts

Many applications in Digital Humanities (DH) rely on annotations of the raw material.These annotations (inferred automatically or done manually) assume that labelled facts are either true or false, thus all inferences started on such annotations us boolean logic.This contradicts hermeneutic principles used by humanites in which most part of the knowledge has a degree of truth which varies depending on the experience and the world knowledge of the interpreter.In this paper we will show how uncertainty and vagueness, two main features of any historical text can be encoded in annotations and thus be considered by DH applications.
A Study of Translingual Practices Expressed in a Social Application

&lt;p&gt;Inspired from several articles that discussed about digital communication, the following article also discussed about the role of languages in some digital platforms such as Whatsapp. The study focused on a group of employees from various nationalities that work for the same company. The dominant language used is English yet most of the members were Indonesian. There are five examples provided from the group chatting that discuss various topics which are mostly related to the company matters. The methodology used was qualitative by observing the group chat activities and collecting the data from the screenshots. The pattern of translanguaging occurred in some parts of the conversation chatting, and the pattern was found based on the category of topic and relationship among the employees. On the other hand, the translingual practices expressed are the switching code from L1 to L2 when it depends on the situations and responses from the users.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Keywords: &lt;/strong&gt;translanguaging, digital communication, digital literacy

It is concluded that distance education today can compete with traditional forms of education.
Theoretical Background For Successful Implementation Of Critical Thinking In Russian Education

The paper is devoted to the notion of critical thinking which was borrowed from the world experience and accepted by Russian education system. As a result of new ambitious goals set in Russian education it has become necessary to use advanced foreign experience, in particular, the technology of critical thinking closely connected with reflection which finds its application in all stages of educational process including higher education. In order to create the preconditions in the science of our country for implementing the given concept, the literature on psychology and pedagogy was analyzed and the notions of thinking criticalness and mind criticalness were stated. In psychological and pedagogical research studies by Russian scientists a conceptual framework to implement new principles for fostering critical thinking was developed by the end of the XX century. The conducted analysis revealed that Russian education had all preconditions to enter a new stage of development which met the social demands of modern society in the context of globalization. The notion of criticalness transformed into the notion of critical thinking at the turn of the century. The article considers the stages of reflection and principles of fostering learners critical thinking during the educational process. The articles of foreign scholars which describe the given technology in application to education on the whole and foreign language teaching in particular were studied while doing research; the own research study of using the elements of critical thinking technology when preparing for State Final Examination on foreign languages was conducted.
A Inverted-Wishart Distribution Approach for the Noise Covariance Matrix Estimation Applied to Target Tracking Problems

Improving the precision of an instrument is a hard task.Generally, this can be accomplished using stochastic filters, e.g., Kalman Filter (KF).Normally, these filters have to be tuned by an arbitrary definition of its noise covariance matrices.In this context, the objective of this paper is estimate dynamically the measurement noise covariance matrix, by means of the Bayes Theorem (BT), in a Kalman Filter algorithm, using the Inverted-Wishart distribution (IW-R Kalman Filter).The proposed method is compared with three other classic stochastic filters.In this comparison the IW-R Kalman Filter has achieved the best RMSE (Root Mean Square Error), outperforming the other filters.Therefore, one can conclude that dynamic estimation of noise covariances could improve the performance of the traditional stochastic filters.
Using Vlog in Shokyu Kaiwa's Course to Improve Students’ Speaking Ability

The evaluation of Shokyu Kaiwa1 and Shokyu Kaiwa2 courses (basic speaking level 1 and 2) were mainly conducted using role play method, where students in pairs conducted a conversation about a theme within a predetermined duration of time. It is known that this kind of evaluation is considered to be less optimal to explore students' speaking abilities. Conversational material only revolves around simple everyday conversations that have been memorized before, and it is possible that they only memorize certain parts of the conversation. With this background, in this research, a method of evaluation that is approximated to be able to explore the ability to speak more optimally is done through vlog (video blogging) which has recently become a popular thing, especially among young people. This research is a descriptive study, with a sample of the Japanese language students major in the second semester of the year 2018 in Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia. The step taken in this study was stimulating students to prepare what must be discussed first, such as giving a variety of material relating to Japanese culture or Japanese habits. The results of this study showed that the students' speaking ability is increased, and students are conveying the conversation materials more freely. The sentence patterns used by students was not limited to the material that has been taught, but exceeded the sentence patterns given in the second semester. Further, students are able to develop the story materials given previously. Thus, it is known that the use of vlogs in evaluating the learning of the Shokyu Kaiwa course had a positive impact on improving the speaking skills of Japanese Language Education students.
The Practice of Cooperation between Mathematicians and Sociologists in the USSR during the 1960–1980’s

This article describes those interaction between applied sciences (mathematics and information technology) and sociologists in the 1960’s and 1980’s which influenced the subsequent development of Russian sociology. The object of research is scientific articles and other texts (popular science articles, memoirs, interviews) of those participating in past and present interdisciplinary interaction. The main trait of the interdisciplinary cooperation between sociologists and mathematicians is the paradigmatization of sociology as a field of science. Precise sciences played a special role in this process, as they participated in the formation of the language, thematic repertoire and methodological arsenal of sociology. As shown by our analysis, the demand for cooperation was formed by three tasks: of the methodological, instrumental and practical (socio-engineering) variety. The article describes three cases of cooperation. Number one — when it was formed by the organizational and intellectual leadership of mathematicians (Novosibirsk school). Number two — when leadership positions were held by sociologists (Leningrad school). And number three — when “game rules” were set by external agents — the cooperation of sociologists and mathematicians in the name of solving industrial tasks. The typical tasks which scientists collectively solved in each of these three cases were identified and systematized. The article offers conclusions about the significance of this period for the development of sociology. Further development of this topic, in our opinion, lies within giving direction to the analysis of cooperation mechanisms between sociologists and researchers in the field of precise sciences, as well as its institutionalization.
THE WRITING AND SUPERVISION OF BRIGHT ENGLISH TEXTBOOK DEVELOPMENT FOR PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHERS IN INDONESIAN CONTEXT

Although English Language subject is no longer compulsory for primary school level in Indonesia based on the current Curriculum 2013, some regions still consider it essential for their area development and thus making it a compulsory local content subject—Batu Municipality is one of them. Therefore, more efforts are needed to assist English teachers as resources for teaching English is limited due to the lack of support from the national policy level, thus the reasoning for the current project. This paper aims to describe the process of writing and supervising of Bright English Textbook, which is a specifically targeted English textbook for primary schools in Batu, East Java, Indonesia. Qualitative descriptive method was used in this study, involving four primary school teachers as the subjects in the collaborative textbook writing project. The finding presents the step-by-step process from the description during the training process, the actual writing process, until the illustration and lay-outing process. Besides, it also describes the supervision process as well as the problems and solutions related to it. Some highlights and implications of the study are also discussed, with suggestions offered in the form of combined online and face-to-face supervision process and sufficient writing and publication ethics training provided before the writing process begins. It is expected that this study could benefit other teachers and researchers who want to embark on a collaborative textbook writing process to improve their project effectiveness.
Machine Translation of Concise State Sentences for Quantifier Phrases

With the development of deep learning methods, the machine translation system based on deep neural network has reached a very high accuracy, but for some daily Chinese phenomenon machine translation system is still not able to translate correctly. In this paper, we study a sentence that often appears in Chinese spoken language, that is, a simple state sentence composed of quantitative phrases, and improve the existing machine translation system. The external helper program constructed in this paper is compatible with the current mainstream network translation systems, greatly improving the translation effect of these translation systems on the concise state sentences composed of quantitative phrases.

Automated testing of a TCG frontend for Qemu

Implementing a new target architecture in Qemu involves creation of a dynamic binary translator TCG front-end for that architecture. Testing is necessary to verify correctness of that translator component. Currently, existing TCG front-end testing systems use an approach based on a comparison with an oracle. Such oracle have the same processor architecture. And an oracle may be a real processor, a high-fidelity emulator or another binary translator. Unfortunately, such oracles are not always available. This paper is devoted to testing a target architecture implementation in Qemu when the necessary oracle is not available. The main idea is following. There is observation, a program written in a high-level programming language is expected to execute equally regardless of processor architecture. In other words, one can use a real processor with a different architecture for comparison. In this paper, it is the processor of a developer AMD64 machine. The comparison objects are the term of a high-level programming language. I.e. tests are written in C. C language was chosen for this purpose, because, on the one hand, it is fairly close to the hardware, and, on the other, it has compilers for many processor architectures. The approach is implemented in CPU Testing Tool (c2t) which is part of QDT. Source code is available at https://github.com/ispras/qdt. The tool is implemented in Python programming language and supports testing of Qemu in both full system and user level emulation modes. c2t is suitable for testing TCG front-ends which are generated by the automatic TCG front-end generation system or implemented in the classical way (manually).
Service Broker-Based Architecture Using Multi-Criteria Decision Making for Service Level Agreement

With the on-going trends of the telecom services, the number of service providers with similar functionalities is undergoing a rapid growth. The customers face the difficulty to decide which service provider can satisfy their needs and full their requirements. Negotiating contracts between involved parts, and hiding heterogeneity in the distributed network environment has been challenging for telecom operators and service providers. Different languages exist to describe the Service Level Agreement (SLA), which is a contract between a service provider and a customer. However, since each service provider expresses his SLA in his own way, it disrupts the customer&amp;#39;s choice of the best service provider, and leads to a bad contract management. In this respect, we propose a novel architecture for service selection, and SLA management between different stakeholders in our network architecture. The idea is to set up a smart broker where we implemented a Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) method to maximize utility function so that the customer can choose services with required QoS performances. We also came up with the idea of settling a negotiation model for the SLA, and a context based SLA contract ontology in IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network is also proposed to provide users with a clear model to express their requirements and preferences. Moreover, we used the New Generation Operations Systems and Software (NGOSS) Framework to model and analyze networks and services actions. To better understand the relationship and the projection of NGOSS Framework and IMS platform, we introduce an SLA management and monitoring architecture in IMS network.

Regional corruption variability in the European countries

Quantification of the corruption rate in smaller sub-national areas is still a significantly unexplored area. Sub-national resolution of corruption rate could bring an entirely new dimension to the theory of causes and consequences of regional disparities. There are numerous reasons why to focus on this issue. Perhaps the strongest one is that if corruption negatively affects the economic performance, as many studies claim, the elimination of corruption in certain regions may be the key for the elimination of regional economic disparities and thus increase the economic performance of the state. Analysis of regional corruption may also lead to the creation of regional anti-corruption provisions that can bring a reduction of corruption rate at the national level. This context is formulated the main goal of this article. A new corruption quantification method reflecting inter-regional differences in the level of corruption in the European countries is designed. Using this method, it is possible to draw a comparison of individual NUTS II regions and identify those which are more affected by corruption than the others. A high level of corruption variability was confirmed for NUTS II regions, especially in Italy. Because of this variability, it could be very deceptive to evaluate the country as a whole from the corruption level viewpoint.&#x0D; Keywords: Corruption, world bank, European union, economic performance, regional disparities, control of corruption.
Envelope-Based Approaches to Real-Time Heuristic Search

In real-time heuristic search, the planner must return the next action for the agent within a pre-specified time bound. Many algorithms for this setting are ‘agent-centered’ in that, at every iteration, they only expand states near the agent's current state, discarding the search frontier afterwards. In this paper, we investigate the alternative paradigm in which the search expands a single ever-growing envelope of states. Previous work on envelope-based methods restricts the agent to move along the generated search tree. We propose a more flexible approach in which an auxiliary search is performed within the envelope to guide the agent toward a promising frontier node. Experimental results indicate that intra-envelope search is beneficial in state spaces that are highly interconnected, such as those for grid pathfinding.
Professional Training Quality Assessment System In Sochi Tourist Destination

The article presents a method of assessing the quality of additional vocational education, taking into account the need for personnel in the post-Olympic period of development of the tourist destination of Sochi. The article includes: development of a model for assessing the quality of additional vocational training and development of technology to assess the level of learning (the training need index). The peculiarity of the presented model of assessment of the quality of education lies in its compliance with basic requirements: the possibility of rapid implementation into the existing infrastructure of the educational institution; the ability to make prompt changes in the event of a modification of the original training program; presenting the score result in a form that is understandable to the end user. The technology of assessing the quality of vocational training, based on the dynamics of knowledge and skills of students before and after the classes according to the indicator "index of learning needs" is presented. The advantage of the indicator is that it represents a model reflection of the dynamics of the students needs in the teaching information in accordance with its importance to professional activities. It is shown that in the case of vocational education, the task of assessing the quality of learning is an iterative process of identifying deviations of the measured parameters of the learning process from the target values and the subsequent correction of the educational process.
