GDC block: gradient-guided direction-aware convolution block for image classification

Abstract Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has achieved great success in visual applications. In the field of image classification, researchers usually customize CNN models to meet the needs of different real-world applications. It consumes a lot of human labor and computing resources but only achieves slight performance improvement. Besides, some recent works try to integrate prior knowledge into classic CNN models to improve their accuracy, but they are usually only effective for special applications. In this paper, we propose a gradient-guided direction-aware convolution (GDC) block. It can be used to replace low-level convolutions of existing CNN without changing the off-the-shelf architecture. The gradient priors provide object shapes that CNN’s low-level convolution requires. And the direction-aware mechanism expands the receptive field size. This scheme is a trade-off between model size and model accuracy. Experimental results show it can moderately reduce the size of any CNN models while enhancing their performance.

Brokered pricing model for agent-based negotiation of data-driven services in the cloud

Since the introduction of cloud computing, integration on the web became a reality.Site-to-site integrations and "Software as a service" approach have been widely accepted as industry standards.The true potential of such a distributed infrastructure is realized when these services are combined together and executed as parts of a singular workflow.The collective composition of web services requires adaptive and dynamic systems where all parties may be subject to unexpected changes.Intelligent systems are needed that are able to make use of services as building blocks that meet user requirements with specific functional and non-functional attributes.The most favorable service is then to be selected from a set of discovered candidates.The goal is to provide computing services to users on demand and charge them based on their usage and Quality of Service (QoS) expectations.In cloud environments, in the presence of multiple services meeting the requirements, the price becomes the main discrimination point.In this paper, we present a general framework that includes the proposal for a brokered pricing protocol for agent-based negotiations and a pricing model study for data driven web services domain hosted on a cloud environment.
The effect of raft and climbing and diving strategies on students’ motivation in writing expository : experimental research in intensive english learning programme of IAIN Padangsidimpuan

This research attempted to investigate whether teaching strategies significantly affect the students’ motivation in writing expository and the problems which students face during the implementation the strategies. The strategies were RAFT (Role, Audience, Format, and Topic) and Climbing and Diving. This research deals with the experimental research design by using Two groups, Randomized Subjects, Posttest only Design. The population of this study was the students of the first year of Intensive language learning programme IAIN Padangsidimpuan and researcher took four classes randomly. The instruments used were questionnaire and interview. The questionnaire sheet was designed with Likert scale. The research finding shows that RAFT strategy significantly affect the students’ motivation in writing expository.

CREATION OF CREOLIZED TEXTS DURING TEACHING “GEOMETRY” IN 7-TH CLASS

The article raises the issue of teaching seventh-grade children a systematic course “Geometry”. It is proposed to create reference notes in the form of creolized texts, which are already penetrating into modern education. Their main components are the verbal part (inscription) and the iconic part (figure). This concept and three ways of their formation are revealed: verbal text + image, image + verbal text, verbal text = image. Given the peculiarities of the new generation, in the educational process, we propose to use more the second method of creolized texts formation. This approach to the study of geometry is justified by the need to take into account the peculiarity of the modern generation – clip thinking. The article reveals the concept of “clip thinking”. This concept was introduced in the '90s and means a person's perception of the world around him as a sequence of unrelated phenomena. Such thinking has positive aspects, among which it is important to quickly perceive information, mainly by reading the image-picture. And the negative aspects that negatively affect the ability of the younger generation to learn, analyze, generalize, and find cause-and-effect relationships. These negative aspects need to be overcome in every geometry lesson, teaching children to analyze both when solving problems and when creating reference summaries of theoretical material in the form of creolized texts. In the article, the author gives a schematic summary of all the basic geometric material, which children study in the seventh grade (according to the textbook of O. Ister). It is the creation of such a syllabus in the seventh grade and its continuation in the next grades (and this is a mandatory part of the teaching methodology) that promotes the better mastering by students of a systematic course in geometry. This synopsis will be their guide in preparation for the state final certification in the ninth grade.

Unsupervised multi-view object proposal ranking

This paper proposes a novel region-based structure measure for object proposal ranking. It is able to efficiently reduce redundant object proposals and highlight dominant objects in an image. The computation of this measure is fully unsupervised, without any image level annotation or any visual semantics labeling. In this work, a new set of heuristic rules are introduced to indicate regions that may contain objects. The distinctiveness of a proposal region is assessed based on its structural uniqueness, structural distributions and deformable shapes. A scoring function is then constructed to combine these multi-view rule-based assessments into a single object score. Furthermore, a rank-recall optimization is proposed to optimize the scoring function for proposal ranking. The final optimized ranking significantly reduces the number of object proposals while maintaining potential object regions. Promising results show that the proposed ranking method simultaneously reduces proposals and highlights dominant objects.

Development of Gait Correction System for Real-Time Gait

Walking is one of the most natural and repetitive actions we do in our daily lives. However, many modern people have problems with shoulders, back and spine due to incorrect walking habits. Therefore, it is becoming important to diagnose and correct wrong walking habits, for example, in-toeing, out-toeing, etc. early, which can be a precursor to various diseases. In this study, we developed the system to diagnose and prevent incorrect gait by grasping and analyzing the angle and muscle activity of the foot according to the typical wrong gait type through MPU 6050 acceleration sensor and the surface EMG sensor. Through a smartphone, numerical and visualization screens based on walking can be used to represent the angle of the feet, real-time EMG values, and even the number of steps. The correction effect was enhanced by improving the cognitive ability through a system that allows individuals to easily diagnose gait through smart devices and improve them according to their own problems.

An approach for constructing expert yellow pages for community question answering sites

Abstract The rapid increase in the number of community‐based question‐and‐answer services is attracting many users. Questions are posted and answered by community members. These users, who can help other users answer questions, can be considered experts. To facilitate finding a suitable expert and alleviate information overload, in this paper, expert yellow pages (EYP) for community question answering (CQA) are constructed. Considering the various lengths of texts, the biterm topic model (BTM) is used to model questions and fields of expertise. Then, two‐dimensional EYP (2DEYP), which are composed of expertise field dimensions and question dimensions, are constructed. The intersections represent the cluster of experts. The proposed 2DEYP can be expanded both laterally and vertically for a more in‐depth understanding and a more precise location. As the closer neurons represent similar topics, a novel labelling method is proposed to identify topic words for navigation. The method uses the distance between neurons as the differentiation capability. To further distinguish experts, a ranking mechanism is proposed. The experts can be ranked by integrating their expertise and activity levels. The expertise level is novel and characterized by both breadth and depth aspects. The proposed approach is evaluated via a real dataset, and the experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is feasible and performs well.

PROFESSIONAL TRAINING OF TEACHERS-PHILOLOGISTS IN AMERICAN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

The article reveals the peculiarities of the American professional training of teachers of philology. The source base is analyzed and the lack of a common understanding of the concept of teacher training model, as well as the identification of concepts of models and approaches to the training of teachers of philology. The problematic issues of interdisciplinary training of teachers-philologists of integrative type for expanding opportunities for professional realization in the modern labor market are identified. The purpose of education and prestige of three types of master's and doctoral schools in American research universities are determined: the school of humanities and natural sciences; vocational schools of medicine, law and entrepreneurship; school of pedagogical education. The article considers such models of training of teachers of philology as intuitive, artistic and craft, scientific and applied, reflective, experimental, critical, collaborative, alternative, which allowed to substantiate scientific and methodological recommendations for improving the professional training of teachers of philology: development and introduction of an alternative model of training of teachers-philologists (alternative educational programs); development of mechanisms to stimulate students of philology to research activities; introduction of innovative teaching methods and technologies on the basis of interactivity, facilitation, collaboration, work in an interdisciplinary team, cooperation and constructive socialization; awareness of the need for interdisciplinary knowledge and skills, professional self-development. It was found that the models of teacher training in the United States have much in common with other countries of the European educational space, and the only model that is purely American is an alternative model of teacher training. Scientific and methodological recommendations for improving the professional training of teachers of philology in Ukraine on the basis of theoretical, organizational and didactic models of professional training in the United States are outlined.

Open-Mindedness and Style Coordination in Argumentative Discussions

Linguistic accommodation is the process in which speakers adjust their accent, diction, vocabulary, and other aspects of language according to the communication style of one another.Previous research has shown how linguistic accommodation correlates with gaps in the power and status of the speakers and the way it promotes approval and discussion efficiency.In this work, we provide a novel perspective on the phenomena, exploring its correlation with the open-mindedness of a speaker, rather than to her social status.We process thousands of unstructured argumentative discussions that took place in Reddit's Change My View (CMV) subreddit, demonstrating that open-mindedness relates to the assumed role of a speaker in different contexts.On the discussion level, we surprisingly find that discussions that reach agreement present lower levels of accommodation.
Lossless Steganography on Orthogonal Vector for 3D H.264 with Limited Distortion Diffusion

In order to improve the undetectability, a lossless algorithm based on orthogonal vectors with limited distortion diffusion for 3D H.264 video is proposed in this paper. Inter-view distortion drift is avoided by embedding data into frames, which do not predict other views. Three conditions and pairs of coefficients are proposed to prevent intra-frame distortion diffusion. Several quantized discrete cosine transform coefficients are chosen from an embeddable luminance 4×4 block to construct a carrier vector, which is modified by an offset vector. When the carrier vector and the offset vector are orthogonal or near to be orthogonal, a data bit can be hidden. Experimental results indicate that the method is effective by enhancing peak signal-to-noise ratio with 7.5dB and reducing the Kullback-Leibler divergence with 0.07 at least. More than 1.7×1015 ways could be utilized for constructing the vectors, so it is more difficult for others to steal data.
