Non-English lecturers’ perception and their difficulties toward English Proficiency Test (EPT) for lecturer certification

The importance of English Proficiency Test (EPT) cannot be separated from the career development of lecturers in Indonesia, as it has become a requirement for obtaining the much desired lecturer certification. This research is conducted to find out the non-English lecturers’ perceptions and difficulties with EPT. It employed a descriptive qualitative approach and used a questionnaire as the data collection method. The results show that non-English lecturers agree that EPT is a deserved requirement for lecturer certification. They were also in agreement with the certain passing grades in EPT, certain fees in EPT payment, the institutions which administer the EPT, and the scheduling of EPT. The study suggests that the case leans more towards the non-English lecturers’ difficulties in doing the EPT which concern 1) the lack of preparation in the form of (both) offline and online courses, 2) difficulties in certain English skills, 3) the lack of English vocabularies, 8) the time limit of EPT, 4) the overwhelming number of questions, 5) unfamiliarity with the various types of questions, 6) the absence of clear guidelines in EPT, and 7) the lack of clear instructions for the test items. Furthermore, it was found that while the institution, faculty, or study program gives full support regarding policies and facilities in administering EPT courses for the lecturer certification, most of them do not provide the compensation for the lecturers who take the EPT.

Prototype and Context-Enhanced Learning for Unsupervised Domain Adaptation Semantic Segmentation of Remote Sensing Images

In unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) of remote sensing images (RSIs), the huge inter-domain discrepancies and intra-domain variances lead to complicated class-level relations. Specifically, the instances of the same class differ greatly while instances of different classes are similar, whether across different RSIs domains or within the same RSIs domain. However, existing methods cannot fully consider these problems, limiting the performance of UDA semantic segmentation of RSIs. To this end, this paper proposes a novel cross-domain multi-prototypes learning method, the core idea of which is to abstract the cross-and intra-domain class-level relations into multiple prototypes. Specifically, the multiple prototypes belonging to different classes can detailedly describe complex inter-class relations, and the multiple prototypes within the same class can better model rich intra-class relations. Further, the source and target samples are jointly used for prototypes calculation, to fully fuse the feature information of different RSIs. In a nutshell, utilizing the samples from different RSIs domains to learn multiple prototypes for each class can achieve better domain alignment at the class level. In addition, considering that RSIs simultaneously contain large targets with wide coverage and important small targets, two masked consistency learning strategies are designed to better explore the contextual structure of target RSIs and improve the quality of pseudo labels for prototype updating. The global consistency strategy can strengthen the utilization of global context relations, while the local consistency strategy can further improve the learning of local context details. Therefore, the proposed method is actually a prototype and context enhanced learning method for UDA semantic segmentation of RSIs. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve better performance than existing state-of-the-art UDA methods.
Penggunaan Puzzle Pada Masa Pandemi Covid-19 Sebagai Alternatif Peningkatan Kemampuan English Vocabulary Siswa SD di Desa Putukrejo Kabupaten Nganjuk

Vocabulary is an important thing in a language. It is not only important in Indonesian, but also in English and even other languages. English which in fact is a foreign language makes this subject still feared by elementary students. They think that English is difficult, so an approach and introduction must be done first. The introduction must also be gradual, especially in elementary school-aged children and even at an early age. This study aims to determine the English language skills of elementary school students in Putukrejo Village using puzzle media. During the current pandemic, students' English skills may decrease due to the lack of material delivered by the teacher and only teaching and learning activities through gadgets without face-to-face learning, so this research is expected to be able to improve students' English skills, especially in the part of body vocabularies. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative and involves 6 samples of elementary school students in Putukrejo Village. The results of this study indicate that 4 samples from a total of 6 samples are considered to have fairly good English skills and 2 samples are considered to be lacking in mastering English, which material is part of the body vocabularies. Students are given a puzzle which contains pictures of body parts and the names of body parts that have been scrambled and cut out by the researcher. There are three stages carried out by the researcher, namely: the introduction of vocab (part of body vocabularies), the testing stage using puzzles, and finally doing reflection using the Simon Says game.

Some comments on unitary qubit lattice algorithms for classical problems

$\bf{Abstract}$: A qubit lattice algorithm (QLA), which consists of a set of interleaved unitary collision-streaming operators, is developed for electromagnetic wave propagation in tensor dielectric media. External potential operators are required to handle gradients in the refractive indices, and these operators are typically non-unitary. A similar problem arises in the QLA for the Korteweg-de Vries equation, as the potential operator that models the KdV nonlinear term is also non-unitary. Several QLAs are presented here that avoid the need of this non-unitary potential operator by perturbing the collision operator. These QLAs are fully unitary.

Graph-Based Explainable Vulnerability Prediction

There have been significant increases in cyberattacks worldwide, threatening the security of organizations, businesses, and individuals. Cyberattacks exploit vulnerabilities in software systems. Recent work has leveraged powerful and complex models, such as deep neural networks, to improve the predictive performance of vulnerability detection models. However, those models are regarded as ``black box'' models, making it challenging for software practitioners to understand them and interpret their predictions. This lack of explainability has resulted in a reluctance to adopt or deploy these vulnerability prediction models in industry applications. This paper proposes a novel approach, namely GAVulExplainer, to generate explanations for vulnerability prediction models based on graph neural networks. GAVulExplainer leverages genetic algorithms to construct subgraph explanations that essentially capture the core control, and data flows that form the vulnerability. The experiment results show that our proposed approach outperforms baselines in providing actual reasons for a vulnerability prediction.
