Published: July 2024

This research aims to find the relationship between digital literacy and cybersecurity behavior among Library and Information Science students in Universitas Padjadjaran. The concept of digital literacy used in this research is based on three dimensions, including technical, cognitive and social-emotional dimensions. This study used a quantitative method with correlational approach, that attempts to analyze the relationship between two or more variables and the strength of the relationship. 75 students from classes of 2020, 2021 and 2022 in the department have been selected as the target of this study with simple random sampling technique. The results of the research show that the three dimensions, namely technical, cognitive and socio-emotional dimensions, all are having a significant relationship with cybersecurity behavior. The three are also having a low level of relationship when it comes to cybersecurity behavior. Based on the results, it can be concluded that digital literacy has a significant relationship with cybersecurity behavior, despite the level of the relationship between the two are low. Which also means that a high level of digital literacy doesn’t guarantee good cybersecurity behavior either.

Riffat Hassan's Thoughts on Gender Issues in the Qur'an
Authors: Hakiki Kiki Muhamad , Rohmatika Ratu Vina
Published: July 2024

AbstractOne Muslim feminist figure who is not so sure about the interpretations of traditional interpreter is Riffat Hasan. In her works, she tries to reconstruct verses that have been interpreted with patriarchal bias, especially verses related to women. In her interpretation, Riffat Hasan offers four important points of her ideas. First, the theory of creation (An-Nisa: 1), (Al-'Araf: 189), (Az-Zumar: 6). This theme, according to her, is important to be reconstructed because the concept of equality and inequality comes from the concept of creation Second, the position of women (An-Nisa':34). According to him, in relation to position, the Qur'an does not distinguish between men and women. Third, regarding purdah (al-Ahzab verse 59). In interpreting these verses, Riffat Hassan takes three steps, namely (1) a normative-idealist and historical-empirical approach by reinterpreting the verses of the Qur'an, (2) deconstructing religious thought that (according to her) is gender biased, and (3) reconstructing religious thought that is not gender biased.Keywords: Deconstruction; Gender Issues; Riffat Hasan; Tafsir Al-Qur'an. AbstrakSalah satu tokoh feminis Muslim yang tidak begitu yakin dengan penafsiran para mufassir tradisional adalah Riffat Hasan. Dalam karya-karyanya, ia mencoba merekonstruksi ayat-ayat yang selama ini ditafsirkan dengan bias patriarki, terutama ayat-ayat yang berkaitan dengan perempuan. Dalam penafsirannya, Riffat Hasan menawarkan empat poin penting gagasannya. Pertama, teori penciptaan (An-Nisa: 1), (Al-'Araf: 189), (Az-Zumar:6). Tema ini menurutnya penting untuk direkonstruksi karena konsep kesetaraan dan ketidaksetaraan berasal dari konsep penciptaan Kedua, posisi perempuan (An-Nisa':34). Menurutnya, dalam kaitannya dengan kedudukan, al-Qur'an tidak membedakan antara laki-laki dan perempuan. Ketiga, mengenai purdah (al-Ahzab ayat 59). Dalam menafsirkan ayat-ayat tersebut, Riffat Hassan melakukan tiga langkah, yaitu (1) pendekatan normatif-idealis dan historis-empiris dengan cara melakukan penafsiran ulang atas ayat-ayat al-Qur’an, (2) melakukan dekonstruksi terhadap pemikiran keagamaan yang (menurutnya) bias gender, dan (3) melakukan rekonstruksi terhadap pemikiran keagamaan yang tidak bias gender.

Published: July 2024

There are many graphics algorithms that require reading textures in window 3x3, 5x5, etc. Both large window sizes and high rendering resolutions decrease performance. We propose a algorithm-independent method for reducing the number of texture samples implemented in a fragment shader for a local 2x2 area and based on the architectural features of the graphics pipeline - transferring data between fragments via difference derivatives.
Automatic Data Generation of Incorrect Image-Text Pairs for Effective Contrastive Learning of CLIP Model
Authors: Tagami Rina ,   Chukyo University, Kobayashi Hiroki , Akizuki Shuichi , Hashimoto Manabu ,   Chukyo University,   Chukyo University,   Chukyo University
Published: July 2024

In this study, we proposed a method for automatically generating high-quality CLIP training data to enhance the performance of text-based image retrieval with CLIP. CLIP training utilizes two types of image-text pair data: compatible (correct) pairs and incompatible (incorrect) pairs. Correct pairs, where the image and text content match, are traditionally created by scraping or similar methods, while incorrect pairs are formed by recombining elements of correct pairs. CLIP is trained contrastively to increase the similarity within correct pairs and decrease it within incorrect pairs. However, when there are multiple images in the training data that are similar to each other, the text attached to them is also considered to be similar to each other, and although it is preferable to treat them as correct pairs, changed pairs are treated as incorrect pairs. Therefore, if two images taken from the training data are not similar, then the similarity between texts assigned to them should also be low, so that a highly reliable incorrect pair can be created by exchanging the assigned text with each other. We applied this idea to the results of clustering the images and texts in the training data, respectively, and used the similarity between the clusters to generate an incorrect pair, then learned to increase the negative effect as the similarity between images was lower. The results of an experiment using the Amazon review dataset, which is commonly used in this field, showed a 27.0% improvement in Rank@1 score compared to vanilla CLIP.

Published: July 2024

The present work address the question how to design a Virtual Reality (VR) training application for a class of search and navigation tasks that dynamically adapts to users by adjusting visual aspects for visual guidance. We present a theoretical concept that dynamically adjusts visual aspects (lighting, colour) in virtual environments (VE) based on a combination of measuring user behaviour (head position, head orientation) and training performance (training time, error rate). The concept is build on derived requirements for a VR application that trains search and navigation tasks and a combination of previous approaches to meet them. A proof-of-concept (PoC) application was implemented, training order picking of parcels in a warehouse. Though the presented concept is sound as it is based on previous research, future work should conduct user studies to validate the concept with quantitative data.

Published: July 2024

Colon cancer is ranked as the third most commonly diagnosed cancer and second for causing the most cancer related deaths. Histopathology is a crucial diagnostic tool for cancer since it enables the microscopic analysis of tissue samples to pinpoint abnormal cells, to identify the stage of the cancer and its kind. There is a significant need for precise detection and diagnosis from histopathology images. This research proposes a stacking ensemble model called Ensembled Convolutional Neural Networks with eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (ECNNXAI) for multiclass colon histopathology image classification. Our ensemble model consists of three pre-trained convolutional neural networks (XceptionNet, DenseNet-121 and InceptionNetV3) as base classifiers and the logistic regression as the meta classifier. Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping (Grad-CAM) visualization technique is used to interpret and understand the regions focused by the base classifiers to arrive at the final predictions. SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) is used for understanding the predictions made by the ECNNXAI. The proposed model achieves the best overall performance with accuracy of 72.83%, precision of 77.78%, recall of 66.52% and F1 score of 71.71% on the Chaoyang dataset.

Published: July 2024

In this system, we have established an e-commerce platform that allows users to virtually try on products and experience their sizes. The virtual try-on experience goes beyond just exploring the styles of the items; size is a crucial factor. However, achieving consistent sizes between the real and synthesized worlds requires a calibration process. In a virtual try-on e-commerce system, the challenge lies in enabling users to perceive the true-to-life size experience. Camera calibration plays a pivotal role in this process. By obtaining the parameters of the camera, it becomes possible to display accurate sizes that align with the user"s proportions. We propose a straightforward calibration method that leverages a mobile web interface to acquire the camera parameters. This approach ensures that users are provided with realistic sizes, enhancing their virtual try-on experience. Additionally, through coordinate transformations, we convert the obtained parameters into the three.js framework, allowing virtual objects to be tried on in a virtual setting. Our system encompasses the virtual try-on of items such as hats, glasses, earrings, rings, and watches. Users have the flexibility to choose different sizes, enabling them to explore various fitting effects.

In this study, we perform a comparative evaluation and assessment for the scattered data interpolation using a quartic polynomial triangular patch with ten control points on a triangular domain. The comparison is made using two different convex combinations and inner ordinates methods, i.e., cross derivative and cubic precision. Statistical Goodness-fit measurements used are maximum error, coefficient of determination ($R^2$), CPU time (in seconds), and contour plot. From the result, the cubic precision method with linear convex combination methods gave better results with smaller CPU times and higher $R^2$ value. All numerical and graphical results are presented using MATLAB programming on the Laptop GPU.

Published: July 2024

This paper investigates the evolution of agents within a virtual world, focusing on DNA transfer between generations, identification of significant genes and the explorations of parameters influencing survival and gene significance. To address these questions, we created an artificial life simulation within Unreal Engine 5, which mirrors real-life characteristics and behaviors of animals. The methodology involved running a genetic algorithm with binary tournament, uniform crossover and n-point mutation and analyzing the collected data to determine the most significant genes in different cases. We demonstrate that parameters such as sensory capabilities, resource availability and mutation thresholds greatly influenced species" survival and their success in the virtual environment. The difference of size, "Health" and sight capabilities was crucial for the survival of deers and their interaction with the environment. In conclusion, this study offers an insight on evolution and evolution dynamics, denoting the influence of resource availability, competition between agents, mutation thresholds and sensory capabilities, with a substantial potential if time and resources were allocated to the research.

Authors: Kowalski Przemysław ,   Kipertech Consulting, Mrzygłód Jan ,   Kipertech Consulting
Published: July 2024

The article focuses on a method for reliably identify moving colored artificial markers in real-time. The marker was used to determine the 3D position in the space of the user(s). The goal was to ensure that points were found and identified predictably and reliably by many cameras simultaneously, which, with appropriate calibration, merging, and processing of the data, could provide reliable information about the current 3D position of a given point in real-time. This information was crucial to other components of the broader vision system (VR platform). The problems encountered and the remedial methods discussed in the presentation concern several aspects that we encountered during research, such as changes in lighting conditions, the quality (and stability) of the generated light and color, the dependence of color recognition on the distance of the light source from the camera matrix, aspects of light reflections, and many others. During our research, we analyzed various RGB/RGBW LED light sources from different manufacturers, which are characterized by different light generation characteristics. We also used a light diffuser. Using different sets of cameras and lighting conditions, we conducted several studies and experiments. During the research, we managed to find basic colors for our marker-tracking visual system that met the goals. We have proposed an algorithm to deal with the problem and demonstrate the reliability of the visual layout with the algorithm. During our research, we used both conventional and alternative techniques related to ML.
Dynamic Many-Light Importance Sampling for Real-Time Ray Tracing
Authors: Freire Pedro da Silva ,   INESC-ID, Instituto Superior T´ecnico, University of Lisbon, Pereira Jo˜ao Madeiras ,   INESC-ID, Instituto Superior T´ecnico, University of Lisbon
Published: July 2024

One of the main performance-heavy areas in raytracing is direct lighting. Direct lighting is usually solved in a process called next-event estimation which samples light sources at each ray intersection. Since real-time rendering is an objective, instead of sampling all the luminaries, just a set of lights deemed more important are sampled by using a technique called Monte Carlo Importance Sampling. Aiming further acceleration, some importance sampling-based approaches build hierarchical data structures over all light sources, which results in high maintenance costs for dynamic scenes. By using a previously introduced algorithm, this paper describes a two-level light bounding volume hierarchy (BVH) to accelerate direct lighting while minimising the quality loss in dynamic scenes common in similar algorithms. The main advantage of it is the ability to have dynamic lights without losing excessive accuracy or performance to maintenance operations. Our approach was developed as an extension to the Mogwai"s PathTracer application from NVIDIA to support direct lighting. The algorithm rebuilds the top-level structure in the CPU allowing it to retain its accuracy and refits only the bottom-level structures in need of updating on the GPU. The CPU rebuild is a relatively costly operation, to avoid excessive performance loss it is done asynchronously only being used in the next frame. We tested several quality metrics as well as frame times, our implementation achieved an up to 36% increase in quality metrics and an average of 7% slowdown when compared with the single-level BVH.

Technology has revolutionised everyday existence. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is essential to society, employment, and education. Improved microelectronics has facilitated the proliferation of inexpensive portable devices such as smartphones. This study, therefore, investigated whether senior secondary school students' nomophobia and smartphone addiction are linked to math anxiety. Two research hypotheses were tested and the study was guided by social cognitive theory. This study employed a descriptive survey research methodology and primary data were collected from 397 students in Ikorodu, Lagos, Nigeria with the use of the Nomophobia Questionnaire (NMP-Q, α=0.89), the Smartphone Addiction Scale Short Version (SAS-SV, α=0.82), and the Mathematics Anxiety Scale (MAS, α=0.81) developed by Yildirim and Correia (2015), Kwon et al. (2013), and Ablian and Parangat (2022) respectively. The data gathered were subjected to analysis using frequency counts, Pearson correlation, and regression analysis at 0.05 significance level. This analysis was conducted using SPSS software, specifically version 23.0. The research revealed a significant association between nomophobia and smartphone addiction among the students. Additionally, the severity of nomophobia and smartphone addiction emerged as significant predictors of mathematics anxiety among high schools in Lagos. Consequently, this investigation proposes that educational authorities in Lagos State should consider implementing a ban on mobile phone usage within secondary schools as a means to mitigate these behavioural addictions among adolescents. Additionally, stakeholders within the education sector, including parents, can contribute to the prevention of these addictions by advising students about the perils of smartphone addiction, fostering ethical social interactions that cultivate trust in the family unit, and imposing restrictions on their children's smartphone usage and associated expenses.

Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) subjects are a significant concern in educational systems worldwide. Students who learn these subjects acquire skills and knowledge that enable countries to develop advanced technological infrastructures in industry and academia, ultimately driving local and global economies toward a more advanced future. However, many countries have reported reduced student interest in STEM studies. While students become interested in STEM subjects after joining space education projects, these are often informal activities that occur outside schools. Space education allows students to explore several subjects simultaneously through a multidisciplinary approach and facilitates the development of important skills required in the knowledge-intensive industry and academia. Hence, this research aimed to analyze the perceptions and attitudes of high school graduates exposed to school-based space studies within the formal educational framework in relation to their motivation to undergo STEM studies and other pedagogical issues. The results reveal students’ high degree of motivation to undergo STEM studies through space education, which is an expected but not obvious finding. As for the pedagogical aspect, the issues highlighted by space education include learning activities outside the classroom, the acquisition of skills, and the use of the project-based learning (PBL) approach.

The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed the education landscape, with distance learning and digital tools becoming increasingly essential. This shift has presented both opportunities and challenges for educators and students. We examine the intersection between distance learning and digital tools in modern education, focusing on Estonian high school students' views on learning mathematics during the pandemic compared to the pre-pandemic period, and compare learning in classroom situations to distance learning. In 2021, we conducted online interviews with 30 12th-grade students who had participated in the online course offered by the university to prepare for the state mathematics exam. Given that the Estonian education system provides significant autonomy to teachers in selecting their teaching materials and methods, we explore the benefits and challenges of distance learning and the use of digital tools such as online platforms, video conferencing software, and educational apps to support student learning. The study found that teachers did not increase their use of specific ICT tools for teaching mathematics, but instead, relied on established teaching methodologies. Furthermore, the survey showed that learners expect an online course to be rich in video material and real-time meetings, so that they can get prompt feedback on questions and problems that arise. While digital tools have opened up new possibilities for distance learning, there must be a balance between technological innovation and human connection to create effective and meaningful learning experiences.

Green Economy adalah suatu gagasan ekonomi yang bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kesejahteraan dan kesetaraan sosial masyarakat, sekaligus mengurangi risiko kerusakan lingkungan secara signifikan. Program ini sedang digalangkan pemerintah sebagai bentuk adaptasi dan mitigasi terhadap dampak perubahan iklim. Sampah rumah tangga merupakan masalah yang dihadapi oleh masyarakat. Pembuangan sampah rumah tangga yang tidak benar dapat berkontribusi pada meningkatnya pemanasan global yang berakibat pada perubahan iklim. Padahal, sampah rumah tangga jika dikelola dengan benar selain dapat mengurangi pemanasan global dapat juga mempunyai nilai ekonomi/bisnis bagi rumah tangga. Perempuan mempunyai peranan penting sebagai penggerak ekonomi keluarga yang membutuhkan pendampingan. Salah satunya dengan mengadakan penyuluhan hukum dan praktik pengolahan sampah rumah tangga. Penyuluhan hukum akan dilakukan pada kelompok masyarakat dalam hal ini kepada kaum perempuan yang pengetahuan hukumnya masih rendah dan sering melakukan hubungan hukum dalam kegiatannya. Kelompok masyarakat tersebut adalah kaum perempuan yang tergabung dalam Pembinaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga (PKK) Desa Ponggang, Kabupaten Subang. Peningkatan pengetahuan terhadap  komunitas ini diharapkan membantu wawasan mereka bagaimana meminimalkan sampah dan mengolah sampah sehingga bernilai ekonomi, bagaimana standar barang untuk diperdagangkan dalam tingkat global, bagaimana isu lingkungan terkait hak kekayaan intelektual (HKI), bagaimana dengan kewajiban terkait perpajakan dan perlindungan terhadap konsumen, dan hal-hal praktis lainnya dianggap perlu untuk memperkuat wawasan kelompok ini.

Lebih menyukai makanan jajanan dan pilih-pilih makanan merupakan salah satu fase pola makan yag dialami hampir seluruh anak usia dini. Jajanan yang sering dikonsumsi oleh anak-anak seringkali minim zat gizi dan banyak mengandung bahan tambahan dan berpengawet.  Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk memberikan edukasi kepada masyarakat khususnya kaum ibu melalui Program Pemberdayaan Kesejahteraan Keluarga (PKK) tentang pemenuhan asupan gizi melalui camilan sehat. Sasaran dalam kegiatan ini adalah ibu-ibu yang tergabung dalam PKK yang memiliki anak usia dini yang tinggal di wilayah Jakarta. Kegiatan dilakukan dengan memberikan paparan materi tentang konsep makanan bergizi seimbang dan pentingnya pemenuhan asupan gizi pada anak usia dini melalui makanan serta workshop membuat camilan sehat berupa drumstick nasi isi ayam dan nugget tempe. Pemilihan kedua menu camilan ini berdasarkan hasil analisis kebutuhan dimana anak-anak senang mengkonsumsi makanan siap saji dalam bentuk makanan beku (frozen food) dalam bentuk nugget dan juga drumstick. Untuk menjaga asupan gizi anak dapat terpenuhi, maka kedua menu ini dibuat agar anak mendapatkan asupan nilai gizi yang lebih baik walaupun makanan yang dikonsumsi dalam bentuk camilan. Diharapkan setelah melakukan workshop, ibu-ibu peserta kegiatan dapat mempraktekkan di rumah menu camilan sehat tersebut dan menjadi alternatif camilan baru bagi anak, sehingga anak lebih terpantau asupan makanannya dan wawasan ibu-ibu peserta kegiatan dapat bertambah tentang makanan bergizi seimbang.

Perspectivas de estudio sobre la literatura contemporánea, su presente y los dilemas que supone su estudio. Se reflexiona sobre las representaciones, los géneros, los usos de la literatura, los medios y la tradición; sobre su continuidad y sus problemáticas. Se parte de una discusión sobre el tiempo presente como problema filosófico y literario. Se abarcan las formas convencionales ahora problematizadas de la narrativa; el concepto de género cuyos límites se discuten frente a expresiones como la autoficción y los géneros testimoniales; la expansión a medios digitales y ambientes performativos. Con este trabajo, se busca ofrecer un punto de partida para la discusión sobre el estudio de la creación literaria en América Latina, en un momento en que su manifestación es al mismo tiempo una crítica a sus convenciones.
