STRATEGIES THAT INCREASE THE LEVEL OF LISTENING COMPREHENSION WHILE LISTENING TO ORAL TEXTS

The present paper examines the effectiveness of strategy instructional program elaborated for 120 intermediate students with different previous learning backgrounds attending language center in Saint Petersburg. The objective of the study is to develop program and improve the level of listening comprehension through focusing on potential problems while doing listening tasks. The study either aims at determining and mastering cognitive, metacognitive, social strategies on the part of the students. The authors hypothesize that learners can gain proficiency in using strategies with practice. Strategies can be easily acquired, they facilitate learning, however, number of them are not always transferred to new tasks and used by students as effectively as before when the activity is over. Therefore, systematic strategy instruction component would be important as learners become aware of the learning process and gain the ability to control their own learning through the use of appropriate learning strategies. The authors of the paper have made an attempt to demonstrate that the number of listening comprehension problems reported by the students could be reduced by applying specially designed comprehension activities that assist learners in evaluation of their efforts and assessment of personal achievements. The pilot groups were asked to complete the questionnaires at the beginning and at the end of the course that allowed monitoring the students’ progress throughout the course. At the end of the study, the pilot groups participating in the strategy instructional program were found to be more successful in foreign language comprehension.
Predictive Risk Factor for Anxiety on Clients with Diabetic Foot Ulcer

Anxiety is one of the psychological responses experienced by clients with diabetic ulcers that can affect glycemic control, serious complications, foot self-care behavior and slow the wound healing process. This research used to find out the factors that influence anxiety in clients with diabetic ulcers. This study was a retrospective analysis using medical records and diagnostic results of diabetic ulcers at Haji General Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia. The sample was 951 people suffering from diabetic ulcers between January 2014-December 2018. Samples were diagnosed with anxiety based on nursing diagnoses and fulfilling inclusion and exclusion criteria. The multivariable model of diabetic ulcer client anxiety was generated using stepwise logistic regression. There were independent variables affecting the anxiety of diabetic ulcer clients namely wound type (p < 0.015; OR = 0.91), health insurance (p <0.001; OR = 0.77) and gender (p <0.040; OR = 0.98) with the contribution of the four independent variables at 31% and the prediction accuracy of 86.6%. Gender of patients have a risk of 0.98 times experiencing anxiety, male contribute 0.64 times compared to female, so nursing interventions can be focused on wound care.
Le biblioteche accademiche e le Linee guida SUA - Terza missione/ Impatto sociale dell’ANVUR

In November 2018 the Italian National Agency for the Evaluation of Universities and Research Institutes (ANVUR) has published a new set of guidelines to measure third mission university activities and their societal impact. The new ANVUR guidelines extend the indicators focused on the production of cultural and societal goods. For the first time, third mission library activities are measured together with museums and archives. The guidelines represent a step forward in the assessment of the third mission in Italy and offer the opportunity to give recognition to the new societal and cultural role of Italian academic libraries. Still much remains to be done to get a realistic picture of the great amount of third mission activities and events carried out by Italian academic libraries in the last few years.
Open problems: an argument for new vision models rather than new algorithms

Abstract Finally, in this chapter we present our conclusions: • Imaging techniques based on vision models are the ones that perform best for tone and gamut mapping and a number of other applications. • The performance of these methods is still far below what cinema professionals can achieve. • Vision models are lacking, most key problems in visual perception remain open. • Rather than be improved or revisited, a change of paradigm seems to be needed for vision models, moving away from a L+NL framework. And we end by proposing that a way forward is to explore models based on local histogram equalisation, with fine-tuning by movie professionals. This approach yields very promising outcomes in tone and gamut mapping, but results can still be improved, and new vision models developed.
Evaluation Calculation of Flood Design with Hydrograph Method Nakayasu, Limantara and Snyder in Catchhement River Way Tebu

Synthetic unit hydrograph is a synthetic based hydrograph of watershed parameters. One way to find out the magnitude of the flood watershed of Way Tebu River Basin is to predict the amount of flow from existing rain data, Therefore rainfall data as the main input of rain diversion process becomes a very important thing and must have a high level of accuracy. The research presents a simple approach to determine peak discharge and unit hydrograph form in the Waytebu River Basin. Several methods of unit synthesis hydrograph such as Nakayasu, Limantara and Snyder are used to calculate peak discharge and hydrograph form. Flood discharge plans with various reworks in each method, providing mixed results. The greatest result is the Limantara HSS (Q25 = 1,413.13 m3 / sec) and the smallest HSS Snyder (Q25:814,57 m3 / s), while HSS Nakayasu (Q25 = 922.93 m3 / s). From the hydrograph comparative analysis of the three methods for Limantara method, the top time is happened at (Tp: 5.57) with top flow (Qp: 10,19 m3 / s), While Nakayasu method has the same top time at (Tp: 5,93 ) with top flow (Qp: 11.65 m3 / s) and Snyder method top time happened ad (Tc: 5.57) with top flow (Qp: 10.19 m3 / s)

Fault Tolerant Sliding Mode Chaotic Synchronization Controller Design for an Interval Type-2 Fuzzy System

This paper deals with the fault tolerant interval type-2 fuzzy integral sliding mode controller design for time-varying uncertain chaotic systems including actuator faults. The overall control system consists of driving and response chaotic systems, and the control objective is to synchronize the state variables of these systems. To this end, the chaotic system including uncertain terms is expressed by the interval type-2 fuzzy model. Also, the failure occurring in the actuator is represented by a fault matrix having time-varying unknown parameters. In this paper, the fault matrix is divided into the time-varying and time-invariant terms, which makes the sufficient condition have only time-invariant part of the fault matrix. Finally, we validate the proposed method through simulation examples.

Seleksi Peubah menggunakan Algoritme Genetika pada Data Rancangan Faktorial Pecahan Lewat Jenuh Dua Taraf

In certain fields, experiments involve many factors and are constrained by costs. Reducing runs is one of the solutions to reduce experiment costs. But that can cause the number of runs to become less than the number of factors. This case of experimental design also is known as a supersaturated design. The important factors in this design are generally estimated by involving variable selection such as forward selection, stepwise regression, and penalized regression. Genetic algorithm is one of the methods that can be used for variable selection, especially for high dimensional data or supersaturated design. This study aims to use a genetic algorithm for variable selection in the supersaturated design and compare the genetic algorithm results with a stepwise regression which is generally used for a simple design. This study also involved fractional factorial design principles. The result showed that the main factors and interactions of the genetic algorithm and stepwise regression were quite different. But the principle was the same because the variables correlated. The genetic algorithm model had a smaller AIC and BIC and all of the main factors and interactions which had chosen were significant on the 0.1%. Therefore genetic algorithm model was chosen although computation time was much longer than stepwise regression.
Survey and Study on Integration of Safety and Security in Robot Systems

In this paper, research on the integration of safety and security in industrial systems, such as robots, automobiles, industrial automation systems, medical devices, and CPS(Cyber Physical System), has been reviewed and analyzed. Security issues are shown to affect the safety and performance in various industrial systems, and studies on integration of security and safety have been performed to solve this problem. In the field of robots, research related to security issues has been being performed but the types of security issues considered are very limited. This paper presents the vulnerabilities for cyber-attacks that can occur in robots by using examples, and the security countermeasures for these vulnerabilities are presented using the security requirements suggested by IEC 62443. Examples are presented to show that safety-related problems may occur even if some or all of these security requirements are satisfied in safety-related control devices. As methods to mitigate the safety and/or security countermeasures must also be taken very carefully, this paper presents an integrated risk assessment method for processing the safety and/or security issues and developing their proper countermeasures.
Acoustic test fixtures: From KEMAR and beyond!

In 1972, KEMAR was introduced to the world. Based on the average of about 5000 males and females from the U.S. Air Force. It was the first head and torso simulator designed especially for acoustic research and enabled the hearing aid laboratories to perform simulated in-situ measurements of hearing aids. Today, more than 47 years after its introduction, KEMAR is able to test any device that contains both loudspeakers and microphones as well as performing binaural recordings of product sound and music. Fixturing, ear simulators, and special microphones, also known as couplers, are used by acousticians and engineers to design and test the many forms of modern acoustic electronics used from entertainment (Ear Buds, Headphones, IEMs, Smart Speakers, etc.), to hearing protection (Noise Cancelation), to medical devices (Hearing and Augmentation and Aids), to automotive cabins and sound systems, to military headsets alike. This presentation will discuss the evolution, ongoing design challenges, and future direction of Acoustic Test Fixtures required for the acoustic discovery and development going forward.
Mathematical Induction and Arithmetic

The Natural Deduction System of First-Order Logic studied in Chapters 1 and 2 supplies all the general proof techniques needed for mathematics and any other deductive enterprise. However, different fields of study may have specialized proof strategies tailored to their subject matter. Natural number arithmetic uses Proof by Mathematical Induction, a technique whose importance it gets hard to overestimate, because it’s used in all areas of mathematics. This chapter explores it in its home setting, along with the closely related Definition by Recursion. Induction is also explored in two other directions, looking at how to determine closed formulas for recurrence relations, and showing how induction is used in some non-numerical settings (theory of strings, well-formed formulas). We then explore how the theory of arithmetic can be developed axiomatically from the Peano Postulates. Finally, the chapter concludes by looking at divisibility and the greatest common divisor, something that gives us a basis for discussing modular arithmetic in Chapter 6.

The Structural Relationships Among CRM Strategy, Customer Satisfaction, Customer Trust, And Customer Loyalty In Personal Training Centers

The purpose of this study was to investigate the structural relationships among CRM strategy, customer satisfaction, customer trust, and customer loyalty in personal training centers. In order to accomplish the study purpose, the researchers visited 8 facilities that only manage personal training program in Seoul and Gyeonggi provinces from November 2018 to March 2019, and distributed a total of 300 copies to members using the programs. Of the total, 273 were used as final data except for 27 cases that were untrue or unreliable. The data were analyzed using SPSS Ver. 18.0 and AMOS 7.0, and the subjects" characteristics, confirmatory factor analysis, and structural equation model were verified. Accordingly, following findings were derived from current study. First, in the relationship between personal training center CRM and customer satisfaction, differential management has a significant effect, but continuous contact, facility management, and physical reward have no significant effect. Second, in the relationship between personal training center CRM and customer trust, physical reward has a significant effect, but continuous contact, differential management, and facility management have no significant effect. Third, in the relationship between personal training center CRM and customer loyalty, all factors such as continuous contact, differential management, facility management, and physical reward did not have a significant influence. Fourth, customer satisfaction of personal training center did not affect customer loyalty significantly. Finally, customer trust has a significant effect on customer loyalty.
Veiled Shared key Generation for Intra-Convoy Secret Communication Sessions

Convoys or Platoons are groups of autos that can preserve a constricted inter-vehicle space gaps for effective driving on roads. Members of a convoy can share secret sessions that only a convoy-vehicle can decipher. In this sense, convoy-vehicles can encrypt their exchanged data using either the hybrid encryption of the Elliptic Curve Integrated Encryption Scheme or the symmetric encryption of the Advanced Encryption Standard as suggested by the current standards specifications. The symmetric encryption key length is critical for security; if one key is captured, the whole system is compromised. The hybrid encryption is fully contingent upon the beforehand availability of a secure authentication framework. For these two hinted at points, a previous work explored the feasibility of having somewhat homomorphically encrypted keys to be used by any pair of vehicles. The promising obtained results motivated the expansion and modification of the construction to encompass more convoy-vehicles in the creation of the private key instead of only a single pair of vehicles. The analytical results, of two targeted scenarios (with and without a convoy leader), confirm our preliminary work stating that it is feasible to achieve such convoy-wise key establishment with reasonable storage and computation overheads.
Analysis of questionnaires for Virtual Learning Environments based on Item Response Theory

This paper presents a model for the design and creation of virtual adaptive evaluations for e-learning environments, combining Item Response Theory (IRT) along with log analysis of previous questionnaires. The proposed model allows the definition of a methodology for the ranking and categorization of questions. Such ranking provides valuable feedback to the teacher or tutor who can refine and adapt the questionnaire. Experiment results reveal that IRT parameters are sufficient for ranking and selecting questions that are more appropriate to teach specific topics. We believe that this approach should become an essential tool for the creation of questionnaires that are more concise and effective in the context of virtual courses.
