Android Application for the Topic “Video Camera” In an Educational Technology Course

Mobile learning (M-learning) involves the use of an application as a medium for delivering teaching and learning (T&L) activities.This method of learning has become a trend nowadays because the teaching tool can be used to enhance students' understanding of a given topic.This paper reports the development of an Android application for learning the topic "Video Camera" under an educational technology course and the assessment of functionality of the application.The design model is based on Hannafin and Peck's Model (1988) which proposes the following three phases of development: analysis phase, design phase, and implementation phase.All the three phases included an evaluation process.In developing this application, the following three multimedia application designs were adopted: information design, interaction design, and interface design.To evaluate the efficacy of the application, three experts comprising lecturers at the Faculty of Technical and Vocational Education (UTHM) were invited to evaluate the application.The assessment confirmed that all the experts agreed that the application meets all the three designs requirements (information design, interaction, and interface).In conclusion, the application for the topic "Video Camera" under the educational technology course is appropriate for the T&L of the course.
Observil - A French network project of urban critical zone observatories

&amp;lt;p class=&amp;quot;western&amp;quot; align=&amp;quot;justify&amp;quot;&amp;gt;One significant effect of urbanization is the modification of environmental conditions, with potential effects on the functioning of urban ecosystems and on their ability to perform functions and to provide service. This is due to both the multiple changes of surfaces and soils, and to an increased human pressure. These changes have indeed major negative impacts on natural resources such as air, water, soil, and biodiversity they host, and may affect locally the human thermal comfort, in addition to the climate change. A better understanding of the physical and biogeochemical processes leading to these changes is then crucial in order to propose and to optimize the mitigation and adaptation strategies. Following the recent efforts in the development of Critical Zones Observatories (CZOs), a new research initiative will regroup well-monitored and well-characterized urban field sites all over the French national territory within a National Observation Service called &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Observil&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;. This observatory aims to address a multidisciplinary approach of urban environments, through a smart definition of appropriate variables and indicators required to better describe the physical and geochemical processes involved in the quality and the dynamic of the soil-surface-atmosphere compartments in cities. To do that, a common Spatial Information System dedicated to the creation of a structured observation database is under construction, in order to regroup the data from a large network bringing together 9 French cities under very contrasted environmental conditions (urban morphology, geology, climate). The main scientific questions addressed by this observation network project will be presented, along with a description of the the selected variables measured on the different sites.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;
Face Identification System

Face identification is a computer technology being used in a variety of applications that identifies human faces in digital images. Face identification from image or video is a popular to pic in biometrics research. Many public places usually have surveillance cameras for video capture and these cameras have their significant value for security purpose. It is widely acknowledged that the face recognition have played an important role in surveillance system as it doesn't need the object's cooperation. The actual advantages of face based identification over other biometrics are uniqueness and acceptance. Face identification also refers to the psychological process by which humans locate and attend to faces in a visual scene. Face detection can be regarded as a specific case of object-class detection. In object-class detection, the task is to find the locations and sizes of all objects in an image that belong to a given class. Examples include upper torsos, pedestrians, and cars. Faceidentification algorithms focus on the detection of frontal human faces. It is analogous to image detection in which the image of a person is matched bit by bit. Image matches with the image stores in database. Any facial feature changes in the database will invalidate the matching process.

Nowcasting in Chatbot Design: Leveraging Service Journey Patterns to Improve User Satisfaction

The rise of intelligent conversation agents, or chatbots, are responsible for the dramatic decrease in remote customer service agent jobs. However, chatbots in their current form, are far from infallible. We theorize that there is an inherent trade-off between a chatbot's response relevance and conversational efficiency in the standard knowledge-bank architecture. Knowledge bank size increases the relevance of successfully queried results, but also increases the difficulty of disambiguating user intents. This inherent trade-off leads to the development of unintelligent fail-safe artifacts such as user confirmations. We argue that, in order to improve user experience and satisfaction, we must decouple knowledge bank size from conversational efficiency. To achieve this, we first design a new artifact that we dub the sequential FAQ (sFAQ) and then evaluate its causal impact on user satisfaction. An sFAQ uses machine learning techniques to first discover common user service journey patterns, then leverage these learned patterns to predict likely subsequent inputs given any focal sequence of inputs. We show that by proactively suggesting potential questions to the user, we can reduce the need for natural language input and thus reduce the need to disambiguate user intent. We then use a novel application of regression discontinuity design (RDD) to study the causal impact of the eliminated reconfirmation dialogues on user satisfaction. Combined, we are able to demonstrate that by eliminating the unintelligent fail-safe artifacts such as user confirmations, the sFAQ will increase satisfaction. Our approach of combining predictive machine learning and causal econometric analysis enables us to open the black box for the underlying causal mechanism linking sFAQ and user satisfaction. This kind of mechanism identification would not be possible even with experimental testing in the field. Our methods and results have useful implications for chatbot applications and user interface design science.
End-to-End Signal Factorization for Speech: Identity, Content, and Style

Preliminary experiments in this dissertation show that it is possible to factorize specific types of information from the speech signal in an abstract embedding space using machine learning. This information includes characteristics of the recording environment, speaking style, and speech quality. Based on these findings, a new technique is proposed to factorize multiple types of information from the speech signal simultaneously using a combination of state-of-the-art machine learning methods for speech processing. Successful speech signal factorization will lead to advances across many speech technologies, including improved speaker identification, detection of speech audio deep fakes, and controllable expression in speech synthesis.
Text-linguistic Analysis of Infinitival Subjects of Opaque Reference in Modern Italian

The article presents an empirical study of zero-anaphora in co-referential chains – an inscrutable and opaque phenomenon in modern Italian that takes place when the verb bears no number or gender marking due to its form and there is no indication of its actual subject. Methods from text linguistics are applied to corpora compiled from three novels by modern Italian authors.
Rational Closure For All Description Logics (Extended Abstract)

Many modern applications of description logics (DLs, for short), such as biomedical ontologies and semantic web policies, provide compelling motivations for extending DLs with an overriding mechanism analogous to the homonymous feature of object-oriented programming. Rational closure (RC) is one of the candidate semantics for such extensions, and one of the most intensively studied. So far, however, it has been limited to strict fragments of SROIQ(D) – the logic on which OWL2 is founded. In this paper we prove that RC cannot be extended to logics that do not satisfy the disjoint model union property, including SROIQ(D). Then we introduce a refinement of RC called stable rational closure that overcomes the dependency on the disjoint model union property. Our results show that stable RC is a natural extension of RC. However, its positive features come at a price: stable RC re-introduces one of the undesirable features of other nonmonotonic logics, namely, deductive closures may not exist and may not be unique.

Purnama-Tilem: Konsep Rwa Bhinneda Pada Wariga Di Bali

&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;The spread of Hinduism from India to Indonesia is the result of acculturation of culture which then brought the concepts of Astronomy-Astrology in &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;Jyotiṣa &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;to Indonesia and Bali. Arriving in Bali, the concept of Astronomy-Astrology is known as Wariga. Wariga’s existence gave rise to holy days in the implementation of Yajña. One of them is the holy day of Purnama-Tilem. The determination of this holy day is based on the appearance of the moon from the earth as a repetitive cycle. If the moon appears perfectly round from the earth, it is called Purnama (Full Moon), whereas if the moon is not visible from the earth it is called Tilem (Dark Moon). This shows that there are two very basic differences in determining Purnama and Tilem. Dualistic this difference in Hinduism is called Rwa Bhinneda. Rwa Binneda is a polarization of life that speaks of all forms of dualism such as, top down, right left, dark light, and so on. Based on manuscipts in Bali, the existence of Purnama and Tilem shows a dualism in Hindu Theology called Sanghyang Rwa Bhinneda there are Sanghyang Wulan and Sanghyang Surya at the level of &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;Saguṇa &lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;Brahman. The dualism of the difference between Purnama and Tilem also influences Bhuwana Agung and Bhuwana Alit. The difference in the meaning of Purnama and Tilem is not something bad, but through this difference will bring about a balance between God, humans and the universe so that all beings will be able to reach the Moksartham Jagadhita ya ca iti Dharma.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
Cloud Services for Patient Cohort Identification Using the Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside Platform

Despite the widespread use of the “Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside” (i2b2) platform, there are substantial challenges for loading electronic health records (EHR) into i2b2 and for querying i2b2. We have previously presented a simplified framework for semantic abstraction of EHR records into i2b2. Building on our previous work, we have created a proof-of-concept implementation of cloud services on an i2b2 data store for cohort identification. Specifically, we have implemented a graphical user interface (GUI) that declares the key components for data import, transformation, and query of EHR data. The GUI integrates with Azure cloud services to create data pipelines for importing EHR data into i2b2, creation of derived facts, and querying for generating Sankey-like flow diagrams that characterize the patient cohorts. We have evaluated the implementation using the real-world MIMIC-III dataset. We discuss the key features of this implementation and direction for future work, which will advance the efforts of the research community for patient cohort identification.

Emoji-Powered Representation Learning for Cross-Lingual Sentiment Classification (Extended Abstract)

Sentiment classification typically relies on a large amount of labeled data. In practice, the availability of labels is highly imbalanced among different languages. To tackle this problem, cross-lingual sentiment classification approaches aim to transfer knowledge learned from one language that has abundant labeled examples (i.e., the source language, usually English) to another language with fewer labels (i.e., the target language). The source and the target languages are usually bridged through off-the-shelf machine translation tools. Through such a channel, cross-language sentiment patterns can be successfully learned from English and transferred into the target languages. This approach, however, often fails to capture sentiment knowledge specific to the target language. In this paper, we employ emojis, which are widely available in many languages, as a new channel to learn both the cross-language and the language-specific sentiment patterns. We propose a novel representation learning method that uses emoji prediction as an instrument to learn respective sentiment-aware representations for each language. The learned representations are then integrated to facilitate cross-lingual sentiment classification.
Public intellectual as an educational project

The article reveals the role of education in ensuring the existence of a contemporary democratic system. Democratic governance is viewed through the prism of the crisis of representative democracy that arises in global world. The focus of the crisis forms a crisis of citizen participation in democratic governance. Among the various scenarios for overcoming this crisis, the emphasis is on a model of deliberative (“discussing”) democracy. Accordingly, a key role in the productive functioning of contemporary democracy belongs to public discourse. Public discourse has an internal contradiction. Its participants are guided by their own interests, but the productivity of the discourse is achieved only if it is subject to the requirements of the common good. Five criteria of the authenticity of the discourse that make it aimed at the common good are highlighted. The medium of discourse that ensures its authenticity is a public intellectual. It is proved that the main vocation of education in the contemporary democratic system is the production of a public intellectual as an effective social character. In this process, a key role belongs to humanitarian education, respectively organized.
