Економічне суперництво між США та КНР у технологічній сфері
Authors:   Державний торговельно-економічний університет, КУДИРКО Людмила , ЦИП’ЯЩУК Ангеліна
Published: June 2023

Міжнародний досвід засвідчує, що у пост­індустріальну добу існує прямий зв’язок між технологічними інноваціями, науково-технічним потенціалом країни та її економічною потугою. Технології стають драйвером трансформацій не лише в економіці, але й у геополітиці, маючи критичний вплив на комплексний економічний розвиток і військову міць держав. З огляду на невизначеність та напруженість відносин між США та КНР актуалізується проблема іденти­фікації характеру та напрямів суперництва між най­впливовішими державами світу в техноло­гічній сфері. Відтак, метою статті є розкриття стану та рівня протистояння економічного супер­ництва між США та КНР у технологічній сфері. Використано методи аналізу та синтезу, порів­няння, групування та системати­зації, елементи інституціонального підходу. Новітній етап еконо­мічного суперництва між державами вирізняється ускладненням інструментарію боротьби та розши­ренням сфер глобального протистояння. Важливою передумовою досягнень у технологічній сфері варто вважати потужну інституційну підтримку – як у США, так і у КНР. Лідерство США утри­мується на: потужному економічному потенціалі; сприятливому інвестиційному кліматі; значних фінансових можливостях споживчого сектору; домінуванні в галузях подвійного призначення; високій ефективності інвестицій як на внутріш­ньому, так і на глобальному ринках. Успіхи КНР у технологічній сфері можна визна­чити як динамічні, а діяльність держави – орієнто­ваною на формування довгострокових конкурентних переваг. Отже, поєднання геополітики та пріоритетів технологічного протистояння відображає як відкриту, так і латентну конкуренцію між Китаєм та США, зокрема за контроль над інструмен­тами та нормами, що визначатимуть перебіг міжнародних відносин на середньо- та довго­строкову перспективу. Витіснення китайського бізнесу з ланцюгів постачання для високотех­нологічних секторів здатне призвести до істотної реорганізації сформованих в останні десятиріччя міжнародних виробничих мереж і посилення про­цесів решорінгу по багатьох техно­логічних процесах та ланках.
Маркетингові комунікації у е-торгівлі
Authors:   Державний торговельно-економічний університет, ГАМОВА Ірина
Published: June 2023

Віртуальна мережа нині формує зростаючу групу потенційних споживачів майже на всіх ринках збуту. Маркетингова активність суб’єк­тів споживчих ринків переміщується в Інтернет, про що свідчить збільшення рекламних витрат такого каналу комунікацій, тож є нагальна потреба детального дослідження моделей маркетингових комунікацій е-торгівлі та застосування штучного інтелекту в маркетинговій діяльності. Відтак, метою статті є ідентифікація маркетингових моделей е-комунікацій та визначення популярних маркетингових моделей е-комунікацій в Україні. Для її досягнення використано наукові методи: теоретичного узагальнення та групування; форма­лізації та синтезу; принципи наукового контент-аналізу. Зокрема досліджено стан ринку інтернет-реклами у світі з 2012 по 2022 рр. та тенденції ринку digital-реклами в Україні з 2020 по 2023 рр. (зокрема й прогнозовані дані). Наведено дані щодо змін застосування інтернет-трафіку після воєнного вторгнення росії в Україну. Розглянуто структуру моделі маркетингових е-комунікацій. Запропоновано кругову подорож е-користувача, структуровано різновиди моделей офлайн та онлайн маркетингових комунікацій. Проведено аналіз оригінальних текстів постів і переписаних штучним інтелектом в Facebook та Instagram шляхом А/В-тестування. Завдяки цьому вста­нов­лено, що обсяг українського ринку інтернет-реклами є незначним порівняно з європейським. Проте сьогодні в Україні вже використовуються інтерактивні технології, розширюється асорти­мент послуг рекламних агентств із застосу­ванням штучного інтелекту, що дає змогу українському ринку реклами значно підвищити ефективність охоплення цільової аудиторії та зменшити її вартість.

Język w czasach globalizacji/ Language in the age of globalization
Authors: Białek Ewa
Published: June 2023

The article focuses on the relationship between globalization and language in the modern world. In the theoretical part of the paper the author explains the concepts of globalization and westernization before discussing the definition of the lexeme globalization in English, Polish and Russian. In the practical part, such words as mall, strip mall, food hall, food mall, food court, droguerie, discount store are analyzed. Assimilation processes and the registration of new lexis in dictionary sources (are used to) demonstrate the mechanism of the impact of progressing globalization processes on the language – the gradual transition from foreign realities and an unknown word to the assimilation of these realities together with the names. The dynamic changes in the language system are caused by the dynamic changes that the modern world is undergoing. The analysis is conducted on material from English, Polish, Russian and – partly – Ukrainian.
Exploring translation competence through retrospective self-reports – a case study
Authors: Kodura Małgorzata Maria
Published: June 2023

The aim of this paper is to explore the significance of self-reflection in the process of building translation competence in novice translators. The paper describes various concepts and models of translation competence that have emerged in recent years. When considering the acquisition of translation competence as a continuous process, it is important to precisely define its starting point. The tests used to assess students’ skills prove their proficiency, but they do not give any insight into the translation process itself. For this reason, this paper briefly presents the state of research on the translation process, with particular emphasis on the attempts to record this process through verbalisations of thoughts. The main part of the paper is a case study presenting the practical application of self-reports in the translation course. The conclusions of this study may be useful for designing translator training curricula and verifying educational results.
Aus der Mitte beginnen - literarisches Erzählen als verkörperte Aktivität in Ulrich Peltzers Roman »Alle oder keiner«
Authors: Steiner André
Published: June 2023

Ausgehend vom Programm der Naturalisierung des Geistes in den Neurowissenschaften untersucht der vorliegende Artikel am Beispiel des Romans »Alle oder keiner« von U. Peltzer wie sich der naturalistic turn auf die Produktion wie Rezeption von Literatur auswirkt. Dabei fungieren die Paradigmen der verkörperten Aktivität und die Fähigkeit zum Hervorbringen einer Welt (Varela u.a. 2013) als Schlüsselbegriffe. Gefragt wird danach, auf welche Weise sich das Konzept der Verkörperung im literarischen Text manifestiert, insbesondere in Hinsicht auf das Verhältnis der erzählenden Instanz zur erzählten Wirklichkeit. Zu diesem Zweck werden zentrale Passagen des Romans, in denen das Wahrnehmungsgeschehen des erzählenden Subjekts thematisiert wird, vor dem Hintergrund dieser Fragestellung untersucht.

Russian orientalism vs. Korean positivism: reflections on the translation of biographies (Yŏlchŏn) from the Historical Records of the Three Kingdoms (Samguk Sagi) into English
Authors: Solovyov A. V.
Published: June 2023

The recent (2018–2020) appearance of a voluminous (though incomplete) corpus of annotated translations of the biographical section of the Historical Records of the Three Kingdoms (Samguk sagi) — the oldest surviving Korean chronicle — into English warrants us to compare it with the Russian translation undertaken in 2000–2002. A comparative analysis will allow us to highlight the characteristic features of both styles, identify discrepancies in the representation of historical realities of the Three Kingdoms period and the nuances of interpretation of basic concepts and principles of historical philosophy. First, we will take on the primary aspects of world-building (including principles of state management, combination of Confucian, Taoist and Buddhist spiritual substrata in the general philosophy of the text, features of allocation of certain virtues to the heroes of historical narration), as well as manifestations of supernatural forces and phenomena. We will conclude by offering arguments both for and against the idea put in its title.

POLITICAL BEHAVIOUR OF SULTAN HASANUDDIN AND SULTAN NUKU: Islamic Political Perspective
Authors: Abbas Irwan , Darmawijaya Darmawijaya , Sudrajat Ajat
Published: June 2023

This study aims to elucidate the political conduct of Sultan Hasanuddin and Sultan Nuku. Sultan Hasanuddin was a legitimate political leader who fought with Dutch forces during the mid-17th century. Sultan Nuku, an opposition leader, lacked significant legitimacy and subsequently engaged in conflict with Dutch forces during the late 18th century. The study employs a critical historical method that utilizes an Islamic political concept approach. This method aims to generate a critical historical explanation that promotes a shift from problematic political conduct that conflicts with human values to developmental political conduct based on human values. This study utilizes the Islamic political concept to conclude that Sultan Hasanuddin's political behaviour is noncompliant with the desired Islamic political behaviour, thus, problematic. Islam instructs political leaders to cultivate constructive political conduct when establishing domestic authority. To secure robust support and loyalty for political decisions, an Islamic leader must cultivate three key political behaviours: safeguarding, guiding, and motivating the populace. Sultan Hasanuddin was not responsible. Sultan Hasanuddin's internal political oppression was a vulnerability during the mid-17th century war against the Dutch in South Sulawesi. The study concludes that Sultan Nuku's political conduct aligns with Islamic political norms and is deemed favourable. Sultan Nuku effectively employed political strategies to govern and inspire his subjects. Historical evidence suggests that Islamic political behaviour aided Sultan Nuku in establishing a strong internal force to resist the Dutch. Sultan Nuku's effective political conduct was instrumental in his triumph over the Dutch in the late 18th century in North Maluku.

Authors: Wagiu Meily M , Wuwung Olivia C , Nainggolan Alon Mandimpu , Manoppo Febri K
Published: June 2023

This study aimed to analyze and to describe values in Mapalus culture and its relation with religious moderation as a contribution for strengthening religious moderation based on local wisdom. A descriptive qualitative method was used in this study. It was found that: Firstly, Mapalus was a culture of Minahasan tribe consisting of the values of solidarity, cooperation, honesty, equality, and mutual respect which were useful in the life of the plural society. These values were relevant with the four indicators of religious moderation reinforcement, especially in tolerance, in being accommodative toward local culture and anti-harmful. Secondly, North Minahasa had a harmonious interreligious social relation according to the government, cultural practitioners, religionists, and the local communities. Thirdly, the efforts made by the community in order to implement Mapalus culture in North Minahasa corresponded to religious moderation, namely, solidarity in joy and sorrow, church constructions, and security on religious holidays. To maintain the harmonious interreligious relations in North Minahasa, it was very significant to make the values contained in Mapalus culture as the basis for strengthening religious moderation.
IMPLEMENTATION OF COUNTER-RADICALISATION IN PESANTREN SALAFIYAH SYAFI'IYAH OF BANUROJA GORONTALO
Authors: Faisal Ahmad , Mukrimin Mukrimin , Fikri H. Asnawi Fikri H. Asnawi
Published: June 2023

This study describes and evaluates how the Pesantren (the Islamic Boarding School) Salafiyah Syafi'iyah of Gorontalo has fostered a movement away from radicalism among its students. The state promotion and action of structural counter-radicalism have reached only a few urban Indonesians. The majority, however, live in rural areas. This research used observation, interviews, and records. The data was then subjected to descriptive and critical analysis. This study showed that Pesantren have a significant role in preventing radicalisation in their local communities. This campaign has been ongoing for some time and is still strong due to efforts to strengthen academic, religious, and social cultures. Thus, it is necessary to combine the counter-radicalisation efforts of the state, which have focused on structural measures, with the cultural approach exemplified by the Pesantren communities. Maintaining and promoting the integration of all children in the country is important, as terrorism and other forms of radical thought and movement harm religion and the nation.
THE FORMATION OF A JAVANESE REFORMED CHRISTIAN SETTLEMENT IN YOGYAKARTA URBAN AREA 1939-1959
Authors: Khusyairi Johny Alfian
Published: June 2023

This article examined the connection between primordial and advance features in the formation of Javanese Reformed Christians settlement in urban Yogyakarta. It focused on the causal factors behind the spatial grouping. Most of the Javanese Reformed Christians experienced social mobility which enabled them to have better professions. This research used historical methods by using church archives and various secondary sources. In a way, religion became the ultimate foundation of the formation of spatial grouping for JRC residence in urban Yogyakarta. In another way, the zending fields in urban Yogyakarta did not only facilitate means of social ladder, but also equipped them with careers. This article also found that the formation of urban Protestant settlement in urban Yogyakarta took the same pattern from that of rural areas of Java. Both settlements required relatively distinct territorial unit enclosed as if within foreign territory, so that the residents would easily be focused on Protestant teachings. However, the urban settlement of this Protestant denomination differed in terms of access to modern facilities, such as education, hospital, transportation which proves that the facilities were originally intended for Europeans who mostly were Christians. The Reformed Christian  Javanese benefitted to this facilities because they embraced the same religion as that of the Europeans.
DISSEMINATION OF RELIGIOUS MODERATION FOR THE MILLENNIAL GENERATION IN THE JENDRAL SUDIRMAN MOSQUE YOGYAKARTA
Authors: Faiz Abd. Aziz , Mujibuddin M
Published: June 2023

The mosque is a religious institution with two functions: a place of worship and the formation of religious awareness (education). The role is also found in the Jendral Sudirman Mosque (MJS), which functions as a place of worship and for forming religious awareness. The construction of religious understanding at MJS is dynamic. In the 1980s, MJS was known as a place of indoctrination for Salafi-jihadi views, while in the 2010s, it was known as a cultural mosque. The change from an Islamic mosque to a cultural mosque underwent a long process. This study aims to analyze the role of agents in providing change while also forming an awareness of local culture-based religious moderation in the millennial generation. This study uses observation and interviews to find data. This study uses Pierre Bourdieu's theory of cultural reproduction to analyze an agent's role in shaping a mosque's identity. This research found three things: First, the transformation of the MJS from an Islamic mosque to a culture-moderate mosque occurred because of the accumulation of agent capital at stake in the mosque arena and formed a new habitual space. Second, MJS is a discursive space that leads to the dissemination of local culture-based religious moderation with contextualization patterns between Islam, culture, and modernity. Third, mosque-based moderation is disseminated using popular language styles and humour to make it easier for congregations to understand the material. This study concludes that the agent has an essential role in determining the identity of the mosque.

CONSTRUCTION OF GENDER RELIGIOUS EGLITARIANISM IN MUHAMMADIYAH EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS OF BANYUMAS AND MALANG REGENCIES
Authors: Hasan Ibnu , Umiarso Umiarso
Published: June 2023

Developing a humanistically egalitarian variety of perspectives on the relationship between men and women based on the educational system is necessary. Consequently, educational institutions can create an education system with human values. This study focuses on the efforts of Muhammadiyah educational institutions (SMA Muhammadiyah Boarding School Cilongok Banyumas, Madrasah Mualimin Mualimat Muhammadiyah Purwokerto, SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Malang, and MA Muhammadiyah 1 Malang) to establish an egalitarian educational pattern. The Muhammadiyah education system is interpreted using a qualitative phenomenological approach with a gender perspective to promote humanist, moderate, and egalitarian diversity. This study discovered that efforts to comprehend the Koran and al-Hadith regarding egalitarian relationships between men and women could not be separated from the orientation of Muhammadiyah's educational institution as a religious renewal movement. This effort produces a humanist- egalitarian education based on integrative values between the empirical dimension (verse kauniyyah) and the revelations of the Qur'an and al-Hadith (verse qauliyyah), which are dialogued to foster human religious potential that is non-discriminatory. Based on theological values, the axiological dimension of education creates a proportional attitude in the relationship between men and women. This is referred to as gender-religious equality.
NOKEN LOCAL WISDOM AS REPRESENTATION OF GOD'S LOVE
Authors: Pikei Titus , Sihombing Adison Adrianus
Published: June 2023

This study aims to describe, explore and analyze the local wisdom of noken as a symbol of Papuan culture which has a strong religious-spiritual meaning for the lives of the Papuan people. This study was compiled using a qualitative research design by relying on primary data obtained through interviews and observations of the daily life of women who make noken and use noken in Papuan society. The informants involved were religious leaders, community leaders and noken women. The findings of the study are that noken is Papuan life, as a vessel and source of life that contains religious-spiritual values. Noken is interpreted as a representation of God's love for Papua which fosters faith and hopes in the Creator. In addition, noken is seen as a second 'womb'. Children born are put in a noken as a container for growth and development until they are crawling. Furthermore, a special noken was made for children with the aim of practicing honesty. If a child takes food from someone else's noken, it means stealing. Stealing means sin according to custom and religion. Noken is not just known but has existed and is known from time to time, passed down and taught how important it is to live in Papuan noken human life. Thus noken is a representation of God's inclusion and maintenance of Papuan life. The ancestors of the Papuan people were explorers living on the island of Papua using the strategy of the regional language of the tribes in the land of Papua to teach noken, namely Ugatame. This means that God is the Creator of the heavens and the earth and humans who are similar to Him. The aim is for the Papuan people to have more faith in God Allah.
A LoRa-Based Internet of Things Platform for Monitoring Environmental Factors Causing Respiratory Allergy
Authors: Plaza-Vivar Tony , Holgado-Terriza Juan A. , Pico-Valencia Pablo
Published: June 2023

This paper describes a continuous air quality monitoring system using the LoRa standard. This network consists of two types of nodes: end nodes (sensor that measure humidity, temperature, carbon dioxide, particulate material) and gateway nodes (device that receives, processes, and sends the data to the cloud). The monitoring system was used in a real context in two points A and B, both located in the center of the city of Esmeraldas, Ecuador. Point A corresponds to a conventional house; while point B corresponds to a university. Two scenarios were experimented, that is, changing the physical conditions of the environment and changing the position of the nodes in terms of distance and altitude. Results allowed us to get a model for cities in developing countries to begin the process of transition to smart cities. We conclude that end nodes showed better communication if they were located at a high altitude above sea level. Therefore, the technologies used in the creation of the network fit the conditions of the environment and the urban space of the city of Esmeraldas —a city that is starting to implement technology to become a smart city in the future.
An Exploratory Data Analysis for League of Legends Professional Match Data
Authors: Morales-García Juan , Llanes Antonio , Curado Manuel , Arcas-Túnez Francisco
Published: June 2023

League of Legends (LoL) is a multiplayer online battle arena video game developed and published by Riot Games. It is a team-based game with over 140 characters to make epic plays with. The game blends the speed and intensity of an real-time strategy game (RTS) with role-playing game (RPG) elements. Two teams of powerful champions, each with unique designs and play styles, battle head-to-head across multiple maps and game modes. Exploratory data analysis (EDA) is a statistical technique that can be used to analyze this data to extract valuable information for both researchers and players. By using EDA techniques on LoL match data, players can identify patterns, trends, and relationships that can help optimize their gameplay strategy. EDA can also help players identify their strengths and weaknesses and important statistics for their gameplay. The paper provides an introduction to the treatment of LoL match data using EDA techniques. It presents the most common data analysis techniques and explores some examples of how to apply these techniques to LoL match data. Furthermore, the paper discusses some ways in which data analysis can help LoL players improve their game, such as identifying their strengths and weaknesses, patterns and trends, important statistics, and meta changes.

Designing Closed-Loop Models for Task Allocation
Authors: Keswani Vijay , Celis Elisa , Kenthapadi Krishnaram , Lease Matthew
Published: June 2023

Automatically assigning tasks to people is challenging because human performance can vary across tasks for many reasons. This challenge is further compounded in real-life settings in which no oracle exists to assess the quality of human decisions and task assignments made. Instead, we find ourselves in a “closed” decision-making loop in which the same fallible human decisions we rely on in practice must also be used to guide task allocation. How can imperfect and potentially biased human decisions train an accurate allocation model? Our key insight is to exploit weak prior information on human-task similarity to bootstrap model training. We show that the use of such a weak prior can improve task allocation accuracy, even when human decision-makers are fallible and biased. We present both theoretical analysis and empirical evaluation over synthetic data and a social media toxicity detection task. Results demonstrate the efficacy of our approach.
Review on the Application Areas of Decision-Making Algorithms in Smart Homes
Authors: Jin Lu , Boden Alexander
Published: June 2023

Automated decision-making is one of the fundamental functions of smart home technologies. With the increasing availability of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, those functions are becoming increasingly sophisticated. While many studies have been conducted on optimizing algorithms to improve the accuracy of predictions, less attention has been paid to how humans interact with algorithmic systems. This involves questions such as to what degree humans are involved in the algorithmic decision-making process and how we can design meaningful interactions between humans and systems relying on decision-making algorithms. With these questions in mind, our paper presents a literature review on the current state of decision-making algorithms in smart homes. Based on an analysis of 49 selected papers, we present a systematic investigation towards the application areas and the deployment functions that decision-making algorithms currently take in smart homes. Focusing on two main application areas – energy management and healthcare, our paper sheds light on the current deployment of decision-making algorithms in smart homes and identifies the current intentions of involving humans in-the-loop. Within the background of facilitating human-in-the-loop as an interaction paradigm, we aim to expose the design challenges for human-in-the-loop decision-making algorithms in smart homes which can pave the way for developing more effective human-machine hybrid intelligent systems in smart homes in the future.
Value-Aware Active Learning

In many practical applications, machine learning models are embedded into a pipeline involving a human actor that decides whether to trust the machine prediction or take a default route (e.g., classify the example herself). Selective classifiers have the option to abstain from making a prediction on an example they do not feel confident about. Recently, the notion of the value of a machine learning model has been introduced as a way to jointly consider the benefit of a correct prediction, the cost of an error, and that of abstaining. In this paper, we study how active learning of selective classifiers is affected by the focus on value. We show that the performance of the state-of-the-art active learning strategies drops significantly when we evaluate them based on value rather than accuracy. Finally, we propose a novel value-aware active learning strategy that outperforms the state-of-the-art ones when the cost of incorrect predictions substantially outweighs that of abstaining.
How Displaying AI Confidence Affects Reliance and Hybrid Human-AI Performance

Published: June 2023

Confidence signals are often used in human interactions to communicate the likelihood of a decision being correct. Similarly, confidence may also be used to indicate the reliability of advice given by an AI. While previous work on explainable AI (XAI) has explored the effect of AI confidence on AI-advice adoption and joint accuracy of the human-AI team, most studies use AI-assistants that exceed human performance. It is unclear how displaying the confidence interacts with the accuracy of the AI. We conduct a comprehensive investigation of the effect of displaying AI confidence on two factors: 1) the accuracy of AI-assisted decision making, and 2) reliance on the AI’s assistance. We conduct two behavioral experiments, one where participants were shown AI confidence, and another where no confidence ratings were shown. Our work goes beyond the typical focus on high accuracy AI assistants. In both experiments, participants were assisted by one of three AI classifiers of varying accuracy. Our results demonstrate that displaying AI confidence increases joint accuracy when people are assisted by a classifier that is better than humans on average. Conversely, when assisted by a classifier with performance worse than an average human, joint accuracy was better when no AI confidence was displayed. However, for the adoption of AI advice we observed the opposite pattern: people rely more on a higher accuracy classifier that does not display confidence compared to one that does, and people rely more on a lower accuracy classifier that does display AI confidence compared to one that does not.
Legal-Ethical Challenges and Technological Solutions to e-Health Data Consent in the EU

Published: June 2023

e-Health data is sensitive and consenting to the collection, processing, and sharing involves compliance with legal requirements, ethical standards, and appropriate digital tools. We explore two legal-ethical challenges: 1) What are the scope and requirements of digital health data consent? 2) What are the legal-ethical reasons for obtaining consent beyond the GDPR’s legal basis, and how might such consent be obtained? We then propose human-centered solutions to help navigate standards of ethical and legal consent across the EU, purposefully addressing those use cases to compensate for human difficulties in managing consent without clear guidelines. These solutions – including ISO standards, ontologies, consent mechanisms, value-centered privacy assistants, and layered dynamic consent platforms – complement and aid humans to help uphold ethical and rigorous consent.
Assisting the Assistant: A Cobot for Voice Customer Support

Published: June 2023

Despite recent advances in automation, customer support still requires a substantial amount of human intervention through voice channels. With the aim of improving the work of human assistants, we developed a collaborative bot (cobot) to help them in the process of handling customer voice interactions. The cobot is a reasoning agent that starts from loading background customer data into a dynamic knowledge graph. Then it captures the audio stream of the conversation, converts it to text in real time, analyzes the blocks of conversation with neural technologies and “thinks” about the results. Assistants can also supply data to the cobot, based on the information they gather from the ongoing conversation. The reasoning agent provides information and action suggestions to the human assistant by applying heuristics on data collected from both automatic and human sources, based on a task and domain-specific conceptual models (ontologies). While designing a prototypical solution for utility services in Italy, we are faced with many problems, including spontaneous speech understanding, factual and linguistic knowledge representation, and efficient heuristic reasoning. We adopted a standards-based approach and experimented with open source reasoners and publicly available language models. The paper presents preliminary findings and outlines the system design, with focus on the interplay of neural language processing and logic reasoning.
Value-Based Hybrid Intelligence

Published: June 2023

In this paper, we argue that the way we have been training and evaluating ML models has largely forgotten the fact that they are applied in an organization or societal context as they provide value to people. We show that with this perspective we fundamentally change how we evaluate and select machine learning models.
Deep BCI of Pain Decoding from fNIRS
Authors: Lee Chungho , An Jinung
Published: June 2023

BCI is a hybrid human artificial intelligence system that promotes physical or cognitive augmentation by artificial intelligence decoding human neurological behavior and feeding it back to humans through artifacts such as robots or computers. This study proposes Deep BCI to alleviate the patient’s pain by objectively determining the intensity of pain. This paper deals with the neural decoding of pain, part of Deep BCI. We present a deep learning method to specify pain conditions from the neurological features induced by thermal pain stimulation. We established a thermal stimulation experimental set-up by international standard thermal QST and adopted fNIRS to measure neurological features. An LSTM model was trained to accurately extract fNIRS features associated with the perceived nociceptive pain intensity. As a proof of concept, we applied this trained LSTM model to classify the boundary between pain and non-pain. The accuracy of the classifier was 96.95% for the cold pain vs. non-pain and 96.90% for the hot pain vs. non-pain. Based on this proof-of-concept result, we will develop artificial intelligence that predicts pain levels and applies it to Deep BCI for pain relief treatment.

Published: June 2023

Online discussions play a vital role in today’s society and recent advances in Natural Language Processing (NLP) demonstrate promising potential for analyzing and facilitating them. This paper proposes a comprehensive framework that involves developing NLP tools based on the latest advances in Large Language Models (LLMs), creating and automating measures to assess the quality of discussions, integrating these tools into online discussion platforms, and designing and implementing adequate experiments to evaluate their usefulness. We emphasize the importance of both user feedback and well-designed experiments to assess how the accelerated development of LLMs can contribute to society. By collaborating with various stakeholders in citizen science and deliberative democracy platforms, we seek to integrate our framework in a meaningful manner. Overall, our framework offers a roadmap for leveraging LLMs to enhance online discussions in a responsible and effective way.
Using Non-Monotonic Logics to Create a Dynamic Framework for a Behavior Support Agent
Authors: Wolff Johanna
Published: June 2023

Behavior support agents can assist humans in accomplishing a variety of goals by suggesting actions that promote the desired outcome while being in line with the user’s needs and preferences. In order to make these agents more effective, flexible and responsible, this research aims to create a framework which allows for more interaction between the agent and the user. By using techniques from non-monotonic reasoning, this work aims to model the knowledge base of the agent so that it aligns with the user’s mental model and is able to be modified by the user through new input. In order for the agent to be able to explain its output to the user, the reasoning process needs to be explicit and traceable, which this work intends to incorporate into a logical framework.
Designing the Built Environment Through Hybrid Intelligence
Authors: Homayounirad Amir
Published: June 2023

There is a lack of an intelligent platform that supports continuous deliberation and captures diverse views and stakeholders’ values during the architectural design process in the early stages. Using hybrid intelligence, this study proposes a method that integrates value, and design pattern theories, to support deliberation during the design process. Three steps comprise the method: eliciting value, extracting design patterns, and designing through deliberation with AI agents using natural language processing through hybrid intelligence. The final set of design patterns reflects the participants’ values and ideas, facilitating informed consensus and collaboration between stakeholders supported by AI agents. By integrating diverse perspectives into the loop through continuous deliberation, the proposed method incorporates stakeholders’ value for extracting design patterns that address primary design goals and challenges such as energy transition in the built environment.
