Bibliometric analysis of the research on Transactional Memory System in Higher Education - Análisis bibliométrico de la investigación sobre Sistema de Memoria Transactiva en Educación Superior
Authors: García-Chitiva María del Pilar
Published: September 2019

The traditional orientation of higher education is the development of individual skills and competencies, while today's society demands students able to work in teams based on collective skills based on collaboration. The Transactive Memory System (TMS, for its acronym in English) is a concept that allows you to understand the cognitive functioning of individuals when working in teams. The objective of this work is to describe the status of research on TMS and unveil the implications of this construct for higher education, based on a bibliometric analysis of the indexed publications in the SCOPUS database until 2018. The results show that, although there are implications that complement the TMS construct with collaborative learning, this relationship goes unnoticed, being the areas of Business, Administration and Computer Science in which the subject is most public while in a tiny percentage this construct is resumed by educational research

Adolescent Language: Models, Assessment, and Links to Reading
Authors: Goodwin Amanda , Petscher Yaacov , Tock Jamie
Published: September 2019

Various models have highlighted the complexity of language. Building on foundational ideas regarding three key aspects of language, our study contributes to the literature by 1) exploring broader conceptions of morphology, vocabulary, and syntax, 2) operationalizing this theoretical model into a gamified, standardized, computer-adaptive assessment of language for fifth to eighth grade students entitled Monster, PI, and 3) uncovering further evidence regarding the relationship between language and standardized reading comprehension via this assessment. Multiple-group item response theory (IRT) across grades show that morphology was best fit by a bifactor model of task specific factors along with a global factor related to each skill. Vocabulary was best fit by a bifactor model that identifies performance overall and on specific words. Syntax, though, was best fit by a unidimensional model. Next, Monster, PI produced reliable scores suggesting language can be assessed efficiently and precisely for students via this model. Lastly, performance on Monster, PI explained more than 50% of variance in standardized reading, suggesting operationalizing language via Monster, PI can provide meaningful understandings of the relationship between language and reading comprehension. Specifically, considering just a subset of a construct, like identification of units of meaning, explained significantly less variance in reading comprehension. This highlights the importance of considering these broader constructs. Implications indicate that future work should consider a model of language where component areas are considered broadly and contributions to reading comprehension are explored via general performance on components as well as skill level performance.

Digital rights management (DRM) is a systematic approach used for protecting the exclusive rights in the digital mass media. It uses a set of technologies to control doubling and reproducing exclusive rights for the digital works and software. The digital watermarking is one of the powerful technologies that play a vital role in numeral rights management. In this paper, a low-computational zero watermark (ZW) algorithm has been projected. It depends on the singular value decomposition (SVD) and implemented on standard cameraman, Barbara, Lena and living room images without attack and with various attacks. The significant feature of this algorithm is that it does not fuse any watermarking in the given source image and hence the result of the zero-watermark algorithm is looking very similar to the source image. This zero-watermark property is obtained by using SVD approach in which the ZW sequence is computed in accordance with the equivalence of prior digits of major remarkable worth in every slab. The implementation consequences shows highest similarity measures of 0.8658 for cameraman image. Further, the computational cost of the algorithm is calculated as 4.442 msec of execution time for all the images under watermark embedder and watermark extractor phases. The PSNR values are calculated for the watermarked images for testing the robustness in the algorithm that is proposed, and the observations have shown the promising results against attack.

Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) is essential in mechanical industry to detect and isolate objects with manufacturing defect. At present in assembly line, mechanical components are transported from one stage to other stage for assembly, packing etc. During this process, components are randomly drawn from the conveyor belt and manually inspected. Since the random inspection is done manually, there is a chance of missing out defected components in the assembly line. Manual inspection is time consuming and all the features of the components cannot be verified accurately. Hence, there is a need for a image processing based system to detect the anomalies in the components sent in the conveyor belt. In this work, camera is mounted above the conveyor module and captures the images of nuts and bolts which moving on conveyor belt. Captured images are preprocessed to remove background noise, then image is enhanced to get the appropriate features and Region of Interest (diameter of nut) is extracted to measure the diameter. If any anomaly is found in the attributes (diameter) of the mechanical components, an electrical signal will be sent to the Solenoid valve and then it actuates deflector plate by the pneumatic cylinder. Defected component is then carried by the secondary conveyor to the re-matching and the quality product are then carried to the packaging will passed to the separator through microcontroller. In this way, components with manufacturing defect are identified and isolated from assembly line.
