Authors:   Faculty of Computer and Information Systems, Islamic University of Madinah, Madinah, Saudi Arabia, Benrhouma Oussama
Published: August 2022

In this paper, we present an improvement of a previously proposed watermarking scheme. We proved in a previous work that the scheme suffers from security flaws and we exploited those flaws to attack the scheme resulting in the revelation of the secret keys used in the embedding process. With possession of the keys watermarked images could be manipulated without being detected by the extraction scheme. In this paper, we propose an improvement of the scheme to cover the security flaws in the scheme. This work falls into the context of improving the design of security systems taking into consideration the different cryptanalysis techniques.

This study aims to investigate influential of the storage condition that affects biomass properties that are covering storages (covered and uncovered) of the torrefied and untorrefied pellets of wood and corncob pellets. And the properties of the pellet after storage for 6 months consist of higher heating value (HHV), moisture content, durability, and dry matter loss. The result shows that the torrefied (wood and corncob) pellets have higher HHV than untorrefied pellets around 15-30%. For the moisture content, the covered pellets have less moisture content than uncovered approximately 3% for both (wood and corncob pellets). Furthermore, the durability continuously decreases from start to 6 months until the durability of corncob black wood and corncob pellet decrease around 95.2% in the case uncovered while in the covered case of wood and corncob, the durability decline around 7.4% and 4.1% respectively. To sum up, the experiment demonstrates that piling a pellet under dry conditions (or covering the pellet to avoid moisture conditions) can upgrade the HHV and energy density of the pellet and the quality of torrefied pellet is greater than untorrefied pellet as well as the wood pellet quality is also better than corncob in term of a low increasing rate of moisture content and dry matter loss and higher of durability, HHV and energy density.

Mass timber products (MTPs) are being adopted in new building constructions and remodels in the last three decades, credited to their renewable and low carbon footprint characteristics. However, there are no mass timber manufacturers currently existing in Atlantic Canada. Extended distances of transporting MTPs to this region from other Canadian provinces may sacrifice the environmental benefits of using MTPs. This study was aimed to understand, via conducting a cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment (LCA), the environmental impacts of a mid-rise institutional building, which is located in the Province of New Brunswick Canada. By comparing the current steel frame design of this building with an alternative mass timber building design with the same height range and function including the transportations of major building materials. It was found that the mass timber building design could still have environmental advantages over the steel structure, as much as 19.5% lower global warming impact and 16.8% lower ozone depletion impact, even with MTPs delivered from the furthest location considered in this study. However, the disadvantages in other impact categories, such as 31.9% higher smog impact, 13.6% higher acidification impact, and 248.2% higher eutrophication impact were found when using the TRACI impact assessment in this whole building LCA study.
Digital Technology in Psychiatry: Survey Study of Clinicians
Authors: Sterling William Andrew , Sobolev Michael , Van Meter Anna , Guinart Daniel , Birnbaum Michael L , Rubio Jose M , Kane John M
Published: August 2022

Background

Digital technology has the potential to transform psychiatry, but its adoption has been limited. The proliferation of telepsychiatry during the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the urgency of optimizing technology for clinical practice. Understanding clinician attitudes and preferences is crucial to effective implementation and patient benefit.

Objective

Our objective was to elicit clinician perspectives on emerging digital technology.

Methods

Clinicians in a large psychiatry department (inpatient and outpatient) were invited to complete a web-based survey about their attitudes toward digital technology in practice, focusing on implementation, clinical benefits, and expectations about patients’ attitudes. The survey consisted of 23 questions that could be answered on either a 3-point or 5-point Likert scale. We report the frequencies and percentages of responses.

Results

In total, 139 clinicians completed the survey—they represent a variety of years of experience, credentials, and diagnostic subspecialties (response rate 69.5%). Overall, 83.4% (n=116) of them stated that digital data could improve their practice, and 23.0% (n=32) of responders reported that they had viewed patients’ profiles on social media. Among anticipated benefits, clinicians rated symptom self-tracking (n=101, 72.7%) as well as clinical intervention support (n=90, 64.7%) as most promising. Among anticipated challenges, clinicians mostly expressed concerns over greater time demand (n=123, 88.5%) and whether digital data would be actionable (n=107, 77%). Furthermore, 95.0% (n=132) of clinicians expected their patients to share digital data.

Conclusions

Overall, clinicians reported a positive attitude toward the use of digital data to not only improve patient outcomes but also highlight significant barriers that implementation would need to overcome. Although clinicians’ self-reported attitudes about digital technology may not necessarily translate into behavior, our results suggest that technologies that reduce clinician burden and are easily interpretable have the greatest likelihood of uptake.
Consumer Perspectives on the Use of Artificial Intelligence Technology and Automation in Crisis Support Services: Mixed Methods Study
Authors: Ma Jennifer S , O’Riordan Megan , Mazzer Kelly , Batterham Philip J , Bradford Sally , Kõlves Kairi , Titov Nickolai , Klein Britt , Rickwood Debra J
Published: August 2022

Background

Emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), have the potential to enhance service responsiveness and quality, improve reach to underserved groups, and help address the lack of workforce capacity in health and mental health care. However, little research has been conducted on the acceptability of AI, particularly in mental health and crisis support, and how this may inform the development of responsible and responsive innovation in the area.

Objective

This study aims to explore the level of support for the use of technology and automation, such as AI, in Lifeline’s crisis support services in Australia; the likelihood of service use if technology and automation were implemented; the impact of demographic characteristics on the level of support and likelihood of service use; and reasons for not using Lifeline’s crisis support services if technology and automation were implemented in the future.

Methods

A mixed methods study involving a computer-assisted telephone interview and a web-based survey was undertaken from 2019 to 2020 to explore expectations and anticipated outcomes of Lifeline’s crisis support services in a nationally representative community sample (n=1300) and a Lifeline help-seeker sample (n=553). Participants were aged between 18 and 93 years. Quantitative descriptive analysis, binary logistic regression models, and qualitative thematic analysis were conducted to address the research objectives.

Results

One-third of the community and help-seeker participants did not support the collection of information about service users through technology and automation (ie, via AI), and approximately half of the participants reported that they would be less likely to use the service if automation was introduced. Significant demographic differences were observed between the community and help-seeker samples. Of the demographics, only older age predicted being less likely to endorse technology and automation to tailor Lifeline’s crisis support service and use such services (odds ratio 1.48-1.66, 99% CI 1.03-2.38; P<.001 to P=.005). The most common reason for reluctance, reported by both samples, was that respondents wanted to speak to a real person, assuming that human counselors would be replaced by automated robots or machine services.

Conclusions

Although Lifeline plans to always have a real person providing crisis support, help-seekers automatically fear this will not be the case if new technology and automation such as AI are introduced. Consequently, incorporating innovative use of technology to improve help-seeker outcomes in such services will require careful messaging and assurance that the human connection will continue.
Artificial Intelligence Bias in Health Care: Web-Based Survey (Preprint)

Published: August 2022

BACKGROUND

Resources are increasingly spent on artificial intelligence (AI) solutions for medical applications aiming to improve diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases. While the need for transparency and reduction of bias in data and algorithm development has been addressed in past studies, little is known about the knowledge and perception of bias among AI developers.

OBJECTIVE

This study’s objective was to survey AI specialists in health care to investigate developers’ perceptions of bias in AI algorithms for health care applications and their awareness and use of preventative measures.

METHODS

A web-based survey was provided in both German and English language, comprising a maximum of 41 questions using branching logic within the REDCap web application. Only the results of participants with experience in the field of medical AI applications and complete questionnaires were included for analysis. Demographic data, technical expertise, and perceptions of fairness, as well as knowledge of biases in AI, were analyzed, and variations among gender, age, and work environment were assessed.

RESULTS

A total of 151 AI specialists completed the web-based survey. The median age was 30 (IQR 26-39) years, and 67% (101/151) of respondents were male. One-third rated their AI development projects as fair (47/151, 31%) or moderately fair (51/151, 34%), 12% (18/151) reported their AI to be barely fair, and 1% (2/151) not fair at all. One participant identifying as diverse rated AI developments as barely fair, and among the 2 undefined gender participants, AI developments were rated as barely fair or moderately fair, respectively. Reasons for biases selected by respondents were lack of fair data (90/132, 68%), guidelines or recommendations (65/132, 49%), or knowledge (60/132, 45%). Half of the respondents worked with image data (83/151, 55%) from 1 center only (76/151, 50%), and 35% (53/151) worked with national data exclusively.

CONCLUSIONS

This study shows that the perception of biases in AI overall is moderately fair. Gender minorities did not once rate their AI development as fair or very fair. Therefore, further studies need to focus on minorities and women and their perceptions of AI. The results highlight the need to strengthen knowledge about bias in AI and provide guidelines on preventing biases in AI health care applications.
A longitudinal study of interoception changes in the times of COVID-19: effects on psychophysiological health (Preprint)
Authors: Vabba Alisha , Porciello Giuseppina , Panasiti Maria Serena , Monti Alessandro , Aglioti Salvatore Maria
Published: August 2022

BACKGROUND

Interoception – the processing of the internal state of the body – has been consistently tied to well-being and mental health which in turn have been severely challenged by the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, the fact that symptoms of COVID-19 (high temperature, shortness of breath, fatigue, and even gastro-intestinal problems) directly alter interoceptive signals has fueled people's tendency to constantly check their internal bodily state. To the best of our knowledge, no evidence at the moment supports this idea.

OBJECTIVE

In this longitudinal study we tested for changes in interoception and psychophysiological well-being during different stages of the pandemic in 2020 and for their potential association.

METHODS

245 Italian participants who had completed the Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness (MAIA-2) prior to the onset of the pandemic, repeated the questionnaire during the first national lockdown in Italy, and three months after restrictions. Participants also completed survey measures of depression (PHQ-9), anxiety (STAI), and sleep disturbance (PSQI). A sub-sample of 28 participants, who had completed the heartbeat counting task (HCT) and a measure of heart rate variability (HRV), was tested again remotely, in the same temporal windows, using phone applications and photoplethysmography.

RESULTS

While performance in the HCT remained unvaried, MAIA-2 scores consistently increased from before the pandemic to the national lockdown and remained largely unvaried after four months. The national lockdown was associated with the least well-being, as evidenced by a decrease in HRV compared to before the pandemic and by higher scores in self-reported depression, anxiety, and sleep disturbance compared to four months after the lockdown. Interestingly, psychophysiological well-being was predicted by specific regulatory components of interoception (e.g., the ability to regulate distress by attention to body sensations and the experience of one’s body as safe and trustworthy).

CONCLUSIONS

Our results suggest an increased attention towards visceral signals during the COVID-19 pandemic and highlight the positive role of specific components of interoception in contributing to well-being, suggesting that novel interventions aimed at increasing interoception might be developed to protect against stressful life events such as COVID-19.

Published: August 2022

Predmet rada je preispitivanje relevantnostii savremenog značaja klasičnog pristupa upotrebe strategija prisile i odvraćanja i njihove interakcije. U radu se predmet istraživanja razmatra kroz pregled literature i teorijskih stavova klasičnih mislilaca,a relevantnost i savremeni značaj njihovih stavova kroz analizu interakcije strategije prisile NATO i strategije odvraćanja SRJ pre i tokom agresije 1999. godine. Istraživačko pitanje rada je da li klasični pristupi upotrebe strategije prisile i odvraćanja zadržavaju svoju relevantnost i danas. Autori zaključuju da je najveći deo načela o primeni strategije prisile i odvraćanja relevantan i za današnju strategijsku praksu i nacionalnu bezbednost. Istaknuta je relevantnost načela eskalacije primene sile za uspeh strategije prisile, ali i manja relevatnost načela da su vojni ciljevi glavna meta u ovoj strategiji, već da su to civilni ciljevi i kritična infrastruktura protivnika. Imajući u vidu da su protivnički lideri centralna meta prema kojima je usmerena strategija prisile, tj. dekapitacija, jedan od zaključaka rada je da odvraćanje mora biti shvaćeno prvenstveno kao napor da se oblikuje razmišljanje potencijalnog agresora.

Bell Shaped Lift Distribution, Aerodynamic Soaring and Control Surface Dynamics of Birds
Authors: Dutta Prantik , Roshan Afeedh
Published: August 2022

Abstract: The optimal aerodynamic traits of the natural flyers have always been a foundation for the designing of bionic drones. In this paper, the aerodynamic soaring capabilities of the albatross and eagle are discussed in detail along with the eagle’s control surface aerodynamics. The bell shaped lift distribution characteristics exhibited by the albatross are also discussed along with its subsequent sub traits such as proverse yaw, wing-tip vortices and so on. The main soaring dynamics discussed are the dynamic soaring exhibited by the albatross and the utilization of thermal updrafts for thermal soaring by the eagle. Apart from these, the different control surfaces and their actuations along with wing morphing techniques are also highlighted. A proper and near perfect manifestation of the traits of natural flyers could be a harbinger to near perpetual modern aircrafts. Aerodynamics and propulsion system are the areas of research that are of concern in this manuscript.
Deep Neural Network-Based Brain Tumor Detection Utilizing CT-Scan Images
Authors: Mushtaq Bisma , Saini Dr. Satish
Published: August 2022

Abstract: Brain tumors more typically affect young people and the elderly. It is an aggressive kind of cancer that develops inside the skull as a result of unregulated brain cell development. Tumor cells are notoriously challenging to classify due to their diversity. Promoting clinical diagnostic technology is challenging, though. As a result, medical demands lead to research on computer-aided diagnostics and medical imaging technologies. Convolutional neural networks are getting more and more advantageous for tumor diagnosis. The company has focused more on computer-assisted diagnostic research that uses images of tumors from medical data. The use of neural networks has been widely investigated in the creation of intelligent methods to assist with medical image recognition. . In this paper, the traditional methods of computer-aided tumor diagnosis are discussed. It provides the segmentation and classification of tumor images as well as the diagnosis approaches based on CNN to help physicians recognize cancers. It acts as a manual for future CNN computer-aided tumor detection system development. The resulting network is an EfficientNet adaption with drop-out and thick layers. W have combined data augmentation with min-max normalization to enhance tumor cells' contrast. The advantage of the dense CNN model is that it can accurately categorize a tiny database of pictures. Thus, the suggested strategy provides outstanding overall performance. The experimental results showed that the proposed model was 99.97% accurate during training and 98.78% accurate during testing.

Authors:   Korean Association For Learner-Centered Curriculum And Instruction, Yun Mira
Published: August 2022

Objectives This study aims to investigate the performance aspect of directive speech act and hedging sentence patterns for politeness according to power relations through the discourse analysis of the Business Korean textbooks and suggests the ways of improving Business Korean textbooks.
Methods This study chose three kinds of Business Korean textbooks published after 2018. These textbooks are composed of basic levels and intermediate levels. To analyze these textbooks, this study classified subtypes of directive speech act at first and then arranged the performance aspect of directive speech act according to the context variables and the aspect of the use of hedging sentence patterns for politeness in directive speech act.
Results Based on the findings of this study, Business Korean textbooks published after 2018 are mainly composed of dialogues related to boss’ directive speech act. For this reason, the textbooks mainly dealt with boss’ command among subtypes of directive speech act. And hedging sentence patterns of ‘-(으)세요’와 ‘아/어 주세요’ were most commonly utilized in boss’ command speech act. But, subordinate and coworkers’ dialogues and directive speech act in the workplace were very little descried in the textbooks. Various politeness strategies and hedging sentence patterns are seldom used in Business Korean textbooks.
Conclusions In the future, Business Korean textbooks have to deal with various directive speech act dialogues according to the power relation. And they have to use various kinds of politeness strategies and hedging sentence patterns for Business Korean learners. But this study did not suggest educational methods for directive speech act. In short, how to deal with directive speech act in Business Korean textbooks will be discussed in a follow-up study.

Objectives In this study, we intend to analyze in-depth the tattoo motives of athletes, as well as factors related to the characteristics of athletes only given through tattoo participation and psychological skills that are beneficial to performance.
Methods In order for this, an open-ended questionnaire and an in-depth interview were used and analyzed in this study. The open-ended questionnaire surveyed 80 athletes over the age of 20 with more than ten years of experience as athletes, and the collected data was analyzed using inductive content. The tattoo motives of the athletes were then identified in-depth through in-depth interviews with 9 athletes who did not participate in the open-ended questionnaire.
Results The findings of this study were classified by deriving 5 general areas and 8 detailed areas from 281 raw data collected via an open-ended questionnaire using inductive content analysis. The general domain was divided into three sections: “Goal Setting”, “concentration improvement”, “strength,” “positive psychology,” and “identity.” Task goals and self-goals are detailed factors in the “goal setting” factor, and external concentration and internal concentration are detailed factors in the “concentration improvement” factor. The “toughness” factor's detailed factors appeared as expressions of strength and self-expression, whereas the “positive psychology” and “identity” factors appeared as a single factor.
Conclusions The findings of this study revealed that tattoos on athletes are no longer a negative action expressed in the past, but rather a positive effect to improve athletes' performance, and an action engraved as a symbolic mark. Furthermore, the motivation for athlete tattooing has been studied from the standpoint of psychological technology that improves athletic performance. It is intended to be used as a starting point for future research.
nós da sala de aula

O presente artigo - Os nós da sala de aula - reflete sobre as prerrogativas de uma educação aberta à sensibilidade e do encontro entre os sujeitos no ambiente educacional. Por meio da abordagem (auto)biografia, é possível divagar pelas temporalidades do fazer docente/discente, abrindo-se aos lugares narrados e à percepção da não-linearidade experiencial, evidenciadas em sujeitos que aprendem juntos. Revisitar espaços-tempos educativos como lugares de encontros guia-nos à multiplicidade interpretativa e experiencial da sala de aula. A partir de uma apuração teórica e criteriosa, as ideias traçadas detiveram-se à reflexão de uma realidade que se abre infindável entre o racional e o sensível. Desse modo, urge a imagem de uma sala de aula não resumível à mensuração do mundo em racionalidades solitárias, mas aberta à totalidade que nada exclui, em aprendizagens por vias de completude/(in)completude como movimento de busca de nós e do outro.

This study provides insights into current perceptions and possible improvements for the use of electronic accounting applications (EAAs) by micro-enterprises, in addition to identifying the impact on financial inclusion, which aims to promote the use of financial and banking services among various groups of society (Central Bank of Jordan [CBJ], 2018). A sequential exploratory mixed-method was adopted in this research (Creswell & Clark, 2017) where the qualitative phase was conducted first to help gather in depth information about possible factors influencing the non adoption of EAAs in addition to aiding in the design of the quantitative instrument, followed by the quantitative phase to test the posited catalysts that affect the adoption of EAAs by micro-enterprises. Thematic analysis revealed that costs associated with the use of EAAs and the need for qualified personnel to operate EAAs along with a lack of interest in and awareness of e commerce culture were the main reasons for the lack of adoption and use of EAAs. On the other hand, the quantitative analysis showed a set of measures that promote the use of EAAs, in addition to a positive relationship in increasing the scope of financial inclusion. This study presents a number of policy implications for regulators such as 1) the central bank and social security as expanding financial inclusion means adequately providing financial support to affected enterprises; 2) Ministry of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship to sponsor the development of customized, free, and easy-to-use accounting applications; 3) activating the social responsibility of local universities in promoting the financial culture through holding free training courses for micro-enterprises.

Technological advancements in the 21st century have rendered humans inseparable from technology. This situation demands that the school sector, notably in Indonesia, adjust to the changes that occur, particularly concerning the Covid-19 outbreak. The government shifted education to remote learning. This study discusses the difficulties encountered by teachers and students during remote learning caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. It describes how to overcome these challenges, as well as what needs to be prepared to implement remote learning. It also determines which applications may be used to facilitate remote learning. Interviews and observation were used for data collection. From a teacher and six first-grade students at SD Negeri Pakong 2, it was revealed that challenges experienced by teachers and students were in terms of difficulties in improving student learning outcomes, lack of gadgets, unstable internet connections, as well as unaffordable internet quota. Alternative solutions suggested in this study are conducting IT training, home visits, and proposing internet quota to the government. The recommended applications to overcome these problems are WhatsApp and Google Classroom.

Kota Jambi merupakan kota yang berkembang pesat di Indonesia. Peningkatan penduduk disertai dengan pembangunan infrastruktur dan kebutuhan air tanah yang meningkat setiap tahunnya dapat menyebabkan subsiden. Secara geologi sebagian Kota Jambi terbentuk dari formasi geologi berumur Kuarter yang masih tergolong muda sehingga kemungkinan terjadi kompaksi yang dapat menyebabkan subsiden. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk melakukan pemetaan wilayah penurunan muka tanah (land subsidence) Kota Jambi dengan memanfaatkan citra Sentinel-1, metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah DInSAR. Mempunyai ketelitian mencapai sentimeter untuk melihat besar deformasi. Data yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah citra satelit sentinel-1a level 1 (2016 – 2021) serta data pembangunan daerah dari BAPPEDA Kota Jambi untuk validasi di lapangan. Data tersebut diolah menggunakan software SNAP dan ArcGIS 10.6. Hasil dari pengolahan DInSAR menunjukkan daerah Kota Jambi mengalami subsiden di dominasi pada wilayah dengan tingkat penggunaan lahan yang tinggi, nilai rata-rata per tahun sebesar 11,28 cm/tahun, dan subsiden maksimum per tahun sebesar -8,6 cm pada tahun 2019 di kecamatan Jambi Selatan dan kecamatan Pasar sebesar -7,7 cm pada tahun 2021. Disarankan adanya penelitian menggunakan metode pengukuran langsung di lapangan seperti metode GPS agar hasil yang didapatkan lebih akurat.
