Authors: Hanafi Hanafi , Pranolo Andri , Mao Yingchi , Hariguna Taqwa , Hernandez Leonel , Kurniawan Nanang Fitriana
Published: April 2023

An Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is essential for automatically monitoring cyber-attack activity. Adopting machine learning to develop automatic cyber attack detection has become an important research topic in the last decade. Deep learning is a popular machine learning algorithm recently applied in IDS applications. The adoption of complex layer algorithms in the term of deep learning has been applied in the last five years to increase IDS detection effectiveness. Unfortunately, most deep learning models generate a large number of false negatives, leading to dominant mistake detection that can affect the performance of IDS applications. This paper aims to integrate a statistical model to remove outliers in pre-processing, SDAE, responsible for reducing data dimensionality, and LSTM-Attention, responsible for producing attack classification tasks. The model was implemented into the NSL-KDD dataset and evaluated using Accuracy, F1, Recall, and Confusion metrics measures. The results showed that the proposed IDSX-Attention outperformed the baseline model, SDAE, LSTM, PCA-LSTM, and Mutual Information (MI)-LSTM, achieving more than a 2% improvement on average. This study demonstrates the potential of the proposed IDSX-Attention, particularly as a deep learning approach, in enhancing the effectiveness of IDS and addressing the challenges in cyber threat detection. It highlights the importance of integrating statistical models, deep learning, and dimensionality reduction mechanisms to improve IDS detection. Further research can explore the integration of other deep learning algorithms and datasets to validate the proposed model's effectiveness and improve the performance of IDS.

Published: April 2023

El conocimiento del ámbito de hogar (AH) y del uso del hábitat de las especies es importante para comprender sus requisitos ecológicos. Evaluamos el AH y el uso de microhábitat de Liolaemus forsteri, una especie endémica de los Andes de Bolivia, mediante muestreo focal y registro de movimiento desde sus refugios y comparamos los resultados con especies filogenéticamente relacionadas (grupo Boulengeri). El tamaño del AH se estimó mediante un análisis de polígono mínimo convexo ajustado. Cuantificamos el uso de microhábitat  registrando el tiempo de permanencia de 26 individuos en ocho tipos de microhábitat disponibles. El AH encontrado (31,2 m2, DE=35.7)  no difirió entre machos y hembras. Los microhábitats más utilizados, considerando su disponibilidad en el sitio de estudio, fueron la vegetación baja, el borde de guarida, las rocas y vegetación de tipo cojín. Liolaemus forsteri tuvo un AH menor que otras del grupo Boulengeri. Las condiciones climáticas del sitio se proponen como posible explicación a dicho resultado. La preferencia por determinados microhábitats se atribuye al menor riesgo de depredación cerca de las guaridas, el fácil acceso a los recursos para su supervivencia y la influencia de temperaturas extremas.
Internal Migration from a Russian Republic: The Everyday Experiences of Kalmyk Migrants in Moscow
Authors: Churyumova Elvira , Holland Edward C.
Published: April 2023

This paper recounts the lived experiences of internal migrants in the Russian Federation, specifically those who have moved from the Republic of Kalmykia in the country’s southwest to the capital of Moscow. Recounting exposure to racism and xenophobia, challenges in the housing and employment markets, and negotiating an evolving city, informants offer grounded interpretations of migration within contemporary Russia. In part, the conversations that inform this paper focus on the everyday experiences of Kalmyk migrants in Russia and in turn aim to fill a gap in the existing academic literature on internal migration in Russia. Most migration in Russia is internal, yet we know relatively little about the diverse nature of the experiences of these migrants at their destinations.
Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Creep Behavior In Isotropic Composites
Authors: Jaweej Mohsin Jaber , Abdulhussein Mohsin A. , Zalzala Bashar kassim
Published: April 2023

Creep testing is an important part of the characterization of composite materials. It is crucial to determine long-term deflection levels and time-to-failure for these advanced materials. The work is carried out to investigate creep behavior on isotropic composite columns. Isotropy property was obtained by making a new type of composite made from a paste of particles of carbon fibers mixed with epoxy resin and E-glass particles mixed with epoxy resin. This type of manufacturing process can be called the compression mold composite or the squeeze mold composite. Experimental work was carried out with changing the fiber concentration (30, 40 and 50% mass fraction), cross section shape, and type of composite. The creep results showed that the higher the fiber concentration, the more the creep resistance. Type of fiber plays a very critical role, where carbon/epoxy composite showed much higher creep resistance and also showed much higher modulus of elasticity than the E-glass/epoxy composite. Specimen shape factor noticed to play a very small role. However, square cross sectional area showed slightly higher resistance for creep than the rectangular cross sectional area. This difference is not critical and can be ignored. F.E.M simulation with ANSYS Inc. software was implied and results were compatible with the experimental work with a maximum discrepancy of (17.24%).

Spatio-temporal variability of small-scale leads based on helicopter winter sea ice surface temperatures
Authors: Thielke Linda , Spreen Gunnar , Huntemann Marcus , Murashkin Dmitrii
Published: April 2023

Surface temperature is crucial in studying the Arctic climate, particularly during winter. We examine 1 m resolution surface temperature maps of 35 helicopter flights between 02 October 2019 and 23 April 2020, recorded during the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC). The seasonal cycle of the average surface temperature spans from 265.6 K on 02 October 2019 to 231.8 K on 28 January 2020. The surface temperature is affected by atmospheric changes and also varies across scales. Furthermore, we concentrate on leads in sea ice because they allow for greater heat exchange between ocean and atmosphere than thick, snow-covered ice. Leads, which appear considerably warmer than sea ice, are classified by a temperature threshold. The local scale (5–10 km) lead area fraction varies between 0% and 4% with a higher variability than on a regional scale (20–40 km), where leads cover a more stable fraction of 0-1% until mid-January when it increases to 4%. The variability in the lead area is caused by sea ice dynamics (opening and closing of leads), as well as thermodynamics with ice growth (lead closing). To understand better the ice rheology throughout the winter, we identify lead orientation distributions. We find that the orientation varies between different flights but the distribution mostly shows one prominent orientation peak. Thus, we are not able to determine predominant intersection angles, which would need two modes in the orientation distribution. The lead width distribution follows a power law with a negative exponent of 2.63, which agrees with literature values, proves the comparability to other datasets, and extends the existing relationship to the smaller scales, as observed here. The appearance of many more small leads compared to wider leads is important since they only occur on the sub-footprint scale of thermal infrared satellite data. Sub-satellite-footprint lead statistics are essential for Arctic-climate investigations because the ocean-atmosphere heat exchange does not scale linearly with lead area fraction and is larger for smaller leads.
The Role of Mental Representation in Sharing Misinformation Online
Authors: Broniatowski David , Hosseini Pedram , Porter Ethan , Wood Thomas J.
Published: April 2023

Fuzzy-Trace Theory (FTT) posits that people share misinformation online if it promotes gist mental representations cuing motivationally-relevant values. Most people value the truth. Thus, per FTT, people decide to share messages that they perceive as true. FTT also predicts that messages will be more effective if they communicate a simple gist. We test these predictions by examining the roles of mental representation and epistemic quality in decisions to share misinformative articles on Facebook across two experiments and two correlational studies. In studies 1 and 2, we use Facebook data to test the hypothesis that gist proxies in text are associated with online sharing. In study 3, we experimentally manipulate subjects’ exposure to a gist-based intervention that explains why a misinformative article is false, a simple debunk stating only that the article is false (but not explaining why) and a verbatim condition providing relevant detailed information but allowing subjects to draw their own conclusions. We found that the gist condition decreased intentions to share misinformation. Finally, in study 4, we replicated this finding, and show that the gist condition also reduces misinformation endorsement. Results provide support for FTT’s predictions regarding reducing sharing and endorsement of misinformation on social media.

Authors: Weng Nina , Plomecka Martyna Beata , Kaufmann Manuel , Kastrati Ard , Wattenhofer Roger , Langer Nicolas
Published: April 2023

Eye movements can reveal valuable insights into various aspects of human mental processes, physical well-being, and actions. Recently, several datasets have been made available that simultaneously record EEG activity and eye movements. This has triggered the development of various methods to predict gaze direction based on brain activity. However, most of these methods lack interpretability, which limits their technology acceptance. In this paper, we leverage a large data set of simultaneously measured Electroencephalography (EEG) and Eye track- ing, proposing an interpretable model for gaze estimation from EEG data. More specifically, we present a novel attention-based deep learning framework for EEG signal analysis, which allows the network to focus on the most relevant information in the signal and discard problematic channels. Additionally, we provide a comprehensive evaluation of the presented framework, demonstrating its superiority over current methods in terms of accuracy and robustness. Finally, the study presents visualizations that explain the results of the analysis and highlights the potential of attention mechanism for improving the efficiency and effectiveness of EEG data analysis in a variety of applications.

Zusammenfassung

Lernprozesse können nicht optimal gesteuert werden, wenn dafür zu wenig Zeit zur Verfügung steht. Insbesondere schwächere Studierende benötigen mehr Zeit. Um sicherzustellen, dass Studierenden ausreichend Lernzeit zur Verfügung steht, müssen Curriculumgestalter*innen mögliche Diskrepanzen zwischen benötigter und bereitgestellter Lernzeit überwachen. Diese Studie wurde durchgeführt, um die tatsächliche Zeitbelastung von Studierenden (Timeload) zu dokumentieren und sie mit der durch das Curriculum festgelegten Arbeitsbelastung (Workload), gemessen in Anrechnungspunkten des European Credit Transfer and Accumulation Systems (ECTS), zu vergleichen. Die unterschiedlichen Lernzeiten wurden mit Hilfe der mobilen Anwendung Studo eingegeben und setzen sich aus den Zeitaufwänden für Anwesenheit, Selbststudium und Verfassen von wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten pro Lehrveranstaltung zusammen. Neben den Lernzeiten wurden in der mobilen Anwendung zusätzlich soziodemographische Angaben zu Betreuungspflichten, Beschäftigungsausmaß und Anfahrtszeiten erfasst. Die durchschnittliche Rücklaufquote pro Semester betrug zwischen 2017/18 und 2021 (6 Semester) 8% bis 17%. Von 75 erfassten Lehrveranstaltungen (4 bis 16 pro Semester) wurde die im Curriculum festgelegte Arbeitsbelastung in bei zweien überschritten. Bezogen auf die soziodemographischen Daten arbeiteten 3% bis 34% der Studierenden laut Auswertung in Teilzeit (≥ 10 Stunden pro Woche). Zusammenfassend waren die Studierenden zurückhaltend, ihre Lernzeit zu erfassen. Unter Berücksichtigung einer möglichen Schweigeverzerrung durch Antwortausfälle wurden für die evaluierten Lehrveranstaltungen an der Veterinärmedizinischen Universität Wien keine Hinweise auf eine Überschreitung der im Curriculum festgelegten Arbeitsbelastung gefunden. Einige Studierende stehen jedoch aufgrund von Teilzeitbeschäftigung unter erhöhtem individuellen Zeitdruck. Das Verhältnis von gemessener (Timeload) zu geschätzter Zeit (Workload) sollte als qualitativer Indikator für Studierbarkeit überwacht werden, um die Leistung und die Lernsituation der Studierenden zu verbessern.

The Development of Human Personality: A Comprehensive Overview
Authors: Alzeer Jawad , Alzeer Jawad , Benmerabet Hamid
Published: April 2023

The complex relationship between physical and psychological disorders can pose challenges for effective treatment. Both aspects often require a multidisciplinary approach to address their interconnectedness. An individual's personality is shaped by their mentality, psyche, and values, which must be in harmony for a well-ordered and disciplined personality. While medical interventions are important, incorporating non-medical interventions can be crucial for managing and treating these disorders. This includes lifestyle changes such as exercise and diet, as well as incorporating values that promote overall well-being. Neglecting our psyche can lead to negative traits and mental health issues. Therefore, nurturing our personality through positive experiences, healthy relationships, self-care and self-reflection is necessary to promote mental and emotional health. It is important to create a balance between material and non-material values to have a harmonious and stable life. Choosing a lifestyle that aligns with our values and needs allows us to create a compatible system, which in turn allows us to make informed decisions and realize our full potential.

The purpose of this study is to analyze Advertising Promotion on Yamaha Motorcycle Sales Level at PT JG Siliwangi. The method used is descriptive descriptive analysis method, namely the research method by conducting direct observations of the object under study according to the circumstances and conditions at the time the research was conducted. The population in this study were young entrepreneurs who were under the guidance of DKOKP, totaling 58 entrepreneurs. Because the population is less than 100, the formula N = n is used). In this study, the sample was young entrepreneurs, totaling 58 people. The results show that advertising promotions have an effect on sales, which can be concluded with a simple linear regression analysis formulated into the regression equation Y=33.94+0.50 X. This equation means that if the value of X is increased by one unit, then Y will increase by 0.50 at a constant level of 33.94, so it can be concluded that if the promotion is implemented properly then the level of sales will increase. Based on the tcount value of 4.94, it is bigger than ttable which is 1.993, so the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis is accepted. It can be concluded that the correlation effect (r) of 0.501 is in the medium category. So there is a moderate relationship between Advertising Promotion and Sales at PT Jayamandiri Gemasejati (JG Motor) Siliwangi Cirebon that can be proven true.
