Less Contact Society Melalui Pemanfaatan Website Masjid Al-Ihsan Komplek Aru Indah Kota Padang

The process of implementing the financial management of the al Ihsan mosque is still done manually and there is still frequent physical contact between the mosque administrators and between the administrators and the congregation. All financial reporting is still recorded on the blackboard which is displayed on one of the inner walls of the mosque. Every community who wants to donate their funds must report and meet directly with the mosque management. Likewise, if the public wants to know the current state of the mosque's cash. So that there is still direct physical contact between people. For this reason, the Dharma Andalas University (UNIDHA) Information System lecturer team tries to help through the use of information technology in the form of a mosque website which functions to provide more complete information with a wider reach to the general public about the al-Ihsan mosque but still by carrying out and prioritizing the concept of Less. Contact Society in order to maintain the safety and health of the community in the al Ihsan mosque environment.
Evgeny Kibrik’s Unknown Artworks in the Context of Pavel Filonov’s Natural Philosophy

This study focuses on the development and changes in the visual language of E.A. Kibrik in the conditions of co-participation in the system of philosophical values of P.N. Filonov and his school. There is explored the process of sign interpretation in illustrations of graphic and symbolic art language of E.A. Kibrik as a component of P.N. Filonov’s natural philosophy doctrine. The notion of “analytic art” or “analytic method” can be considered primarily as an innovative development of P.N. Filonov, which is characterized by the concept of artist-researcher based on the disclosure of the “purity” of forms by analytical means. In the context of studying the creative thinking of E.A. Kibrik during the Filonov period, it seems significant to consider the conjunction of problems in illustrating literary works with the method of natural philosophical pictorialism and technical expressiveness of details. E.A Kibrik’s works allow us to identify the themes, psychological and social motivations that are characteristic of Filonov’s doctrine, as well as to raise the question of the incompleteness of the search for style and artistic language in that period of time. The ideology of the new time, identical to the innovative content of the Russian avant-garde, was also manifested in the works of E.A. Kibrik in the late 1920s — early 1930s. His role in the general process of creating a paradoxical art reality is defined primarily by the influence of P.N. Filonov, a theorist and master of analytical art. The study is especially relevant because it analyzes previously unexplored and unpublished works by E.A. Kibrik of the Filonov period (1930) from the family collection of art historian A.A. Agamirova and Academician of the Russian Academy of Arts B.F. Belsky. The article presents E.A. Kibrik’s unknown drawings that are the result of the artist’s first creative business trip. The unexplored graphic sheets reveal the multi-variant nature of the artist’s method and his experimental approach, which has largely remained unknown to a wide audience.

The Relationship between Task Complexity, Task Difficulty, and Speaking Performance: The Case of Chinese EFL Learners

In recent years, task-based language teaching (TBLT) has become a prevalent pedagogy in Chinese universities.Much research has focused on task complexity.Nevertheless, task difficulty, another crucial element of TBLT, has gained little attention from researchers.With twenty Chinese first-year undergraduates majoring in English participating in the present research, this study explored the relationship between task complexity, difficulty, and Chinese EFL learners' English speaking performance, hoping to shed light on the design and implementation of tasks in L2 teaching.The results suggested that learners' grammatical complexity, lexical sophistication, and accuracy varied significantly in the two tasks of different complexity.Only speaking speed was found to be positively correlated with task difficulty.When learners' confidence to fulfill a task was bolstered, they would respond to the task at a faster speaking speed.Hence, teachers can design tasks of different complexity flexibly and fine-tune the complexity of the tasks to meet different teaching goals.Teachers can also strengthen the students' confidence in accomplishing tasks to enhance their speaking fluency.
Multi-Scale Pooling In Deep Neural Networks For Dense Crowd Estimation

State-of-the-art-methods for counting persons in dense crowded places lack in estimating accurate crowd density due to following reasons. They typically apply the same filters over a complete image or over big image patches. Only then the perspective distortion can be compensated by estimating local scale. It is achieved by training an additional classifier with the optimal kernel size chosen from limited choices. These methods are restricted to the context they are applied on because they are not end-to-end trainable; cannot justify quick scale changes because they allocate a single scale to big image patches; and can only utilize a narrow range of receptive fields for the networks to be of a feasible size. In this study, we bring in an end-to-end trainable deep architecture that merges features achieved from multiple kernels of different sizes and learns various essential features such as quick scale changes and to utilize the right context at each image location. This technique flexibly encodes scale of related information to precisely predict crowd density. The training and validation loss of the proposed approach is 5% and 4% lower than the state-of-the-art context aware method, respectively.

Podcast Kearifan Lokal sebagai Media Penguatan Karakter Mahasiswa

Education providers are one of the sectors forced to change the pattern of offline to online learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Students, as members of the native generation, are certainly already familiar with information technology systems that are widely open. When experiencing difficulties, they will use the available platforms to find solutions without communicating directly with the people around them. As a result, they think practically and unconcerned about their environment. Podcasts are an alternative platform for distance learning because they involve professionalism in sharing content or inviting students to collaborate as resource persons. Other students can interact through written communication during learning, allowing feedback to be felt and an emotional connection to be formed. The content of local wisdom values is inserted at every meeting with the goal of instilling and developing student character behaviors. The study included 30 participants, and descriptive statistical analysis revealed that 85% of students were satisfied with using local wisdom podcasts as a learning medium.

Formation of an inclusive culture in an educational organization

Introduction. The formation relevance of an inclusive culture in an educational organization is due to the need to resolve the contradiction between the society need to ensure equal rights to education for various population categories and insufficiently systematized knowledge about the model diversity for applying an integrated approach in the implementation of both formalized and meaningful measures to increase the educational environment accessibility for students with disabilities and various educational needs. The technical arrangement of educational organization external and internal territories, despite the rapid implementation, without taking into account the building structure features, the aperture dimension, including in buildings that classified as old buildings, does not lead to the establishment of a full-fledged accessible environment, as well as the implementation of the adaptive program without teaching staff appropriate professional training and professional education. In this regard, the formation of an educational organization inclusive culture as a complex of substantive and technological measures, implemented consistently and step by step, seems to be one of the most important areas of its operations. Materials and methods. In the course of the study, the educational inclusion understanding by participants in the educational process in the higher education organization, the specifics of the formed organization atmosphere in the educational inclusion adoption, the teaching staff readiness level for its implementation was studied.

The research prospects are to reveal the adapted program's components potential, their coordination with the technical educational environment modernization, and to identify the dynamics of the developmental effects in students with special educational needs.
Quantum message-passing algorithm for optimal and efficient decoding

Recently, Renes proposed a quantum algorithm called belief propagation with quantum messages (BPQM) for decoding classical data encoded using a binary linear code with tree Tanner graph that is transmitted over a pure-state CQ channel [Renes, NJP 19 072001 (2017)]. The algorithm presents a genuine quantum counterpart to decoding based on the classical belief propagation algorithm, which has found wide success in classical coding theory when used in conjunction with LDPC or Turbo codes. More recently Rengaswamy et al. [npj Quantum Information 7 97 (2021)] observed that BPQM implements the optimal decoder on a small example code. Here we significantly expand the understanding, formalism, and applicability of the BPQM algorithm with the following contributions. First, we prove analytically that BPQM realizes optimal decoding for any binary linear code with tree Tanner graph. We also provide the first formal description of the BPQM algorithm in full detail and without any ambiguity. In so doing, we identify a key flaw overlooked in the original algorithm and subsequent works which implies quantum circuit realizations will be exponentially large in the code dimension. Although BPQM passes quantum messages, other information required by the algorithm is processed globally. We remedy this problem by formulating a truly message-passing algorithm which approximates BPQM and has quantum circuit complexity $\mathcal{O}(\text{poly } n, \text{polylog } \frac{1}ε)$, where $n$ is the code length and $ε$ is the approximation error. Finally, we also propose a novel method for extending BPQM to factor graphs containing cycles by making use of approximate cloning. We show some promising numerical results that indicate that BPQM on factor graphs with cycles can significantly outperform the best possible classical decoder.
A Bibliometric Study upon Auditor-Client Negotiation Aspects

Financial reporting literature indicates a research gap regarding the topic of auditor-client negotiation (ACN). Thus, the current paper seeks to present the concept of ACN from a literature review perspective. Further, the research is organized in two main sections, namely: (1) the qualitative analysis, based on previous studies in the field of ACN and (2) the quantitative analysis, which involves the use of specific indicators, such as: level of citations per year, region/ country, journal type etc. Then, the study evolves into new insights and discussions upon the impact of literature review on auditor-client negotiations. Overall, the authors used an extensive analysis of 37 publications collected from Web of Science, selecting the most relevant literature in the fields of business, finance, management, social sciences, and ethics, during the period 1975- 2022. Results show that the concept of ACN is being debated in top journals, totalizing no less than 602 citations, and recording an H- Index of 16. Further on, 8 top journals were identified with more than one publication in the sphere of auditor-client negotiation (ACN), 10 authors that have written at least two papers related to ACN, and not least 7 articles with top citation levels. All the 37 literature sources bring an extensive contribution to the development of ACN concept and represent the background for building new insights and prospective research. The present study has practical implications, as defining the background of ACN helps practitioners to find efficient solutions to their everyday challenges.
