High school mathematics teachers’ reading of tables
Authors:   Oklahoma State University, Molnar Adam
Published: June 2022

People frequently do not use numeric information as providers intended. Some lapses arise from psychological issues, but more errors (even among educated professionals) come from lack of mathematical skill. Lack of training is a cause; for instance, finding probabilities from tables appears in current US school standards, but not many earlier versions. To investigate teacher knowledge, 25 US high school mathematics teachers were interviewed on tasks related to tables and conditional probability. Although participants made mistakes, their content knowledge compared favorably to the general population. Interviewed teachers recognized common misconceptions and could offer potential suggestions to help students, but teachers acknowledged their lack of experience on the subject. Discussion includes how curriculum choices might develop students’ knowledge of categorical variables.

Authors:   University of San Carlos, Reston Enriqueta , Piramide Jennefer ,   University of San Carlos, Loquias Carmelita ,   University of San Carlos
Published: June 2022

In response to the challenge of implementing a new Statistics and Probability course for senior high school in the Philippines, we developed curriculum resource materials in a course disk anchored on inquiry-based constructivist pedagogy using real data about the youth sector. Offical youth statistics and data from various surveys about the youth were used to provide the database for teaching-learning and assessment activities that build students’ conceptual understanding of random variables, probability and sampling distributions, the Central Limit Theorem, and the inferential methods of parameter estimation and hypothesis testing. With the twin goal of promoting statistical literacy and understanding the dynamics of the youth population, the activities provide the learners the opportunity to raise their social consciousness on the vital role of the youth sector in society. This paper describes some of these activities and their databases.
Competencies and dispositions for exploring micro data with digital tools
Authors:   University of Paderborn, Frischemeier Daniel , Biehler Rolf ,   University of Paderborn, Engel Joachim ,   Ludwigsburg University of Education
Published: June 2022

Exploring micro data requires the ability to use digital tools for managing large multivariate data. Digital tools allow changing easily between different uni- and multivariate displays and summary statistics for a deeper insight into the data. In this paper we examine the suitability of several digital data analysis tools for exploring a large, multivariate socio-economic dataset, ranging from educational tools (TinkerPlots, Fathom) to professional software (R). Based on German income structure data, we will point out benefits and limitations of TinkerPlots, Fathom and R for comparing groups, investigating subgroups, analyzing relationships between variables and for exploring multivariate phenomena.

Storytelling from social data: dynamic data exploration using JMP
Authors:   SAS Institute GmbH, Kraft Volker
Published: June 2022

Interacting with graphical displays and multivariate analysis tools helps to understand what the data are telling us. The interactivity of JMP for all types of data, including social, geographic and time-series data, helps with efficient visualization and modeling, supports decision-making from data, and facilitates the communication of findings and results. In this hands-on workshop we used recent social data to illustrate the power of dynamic tools for data exploration, visualization and analysis, and explored the role of interactivity in statistical education. Participants were asked to download and install the 30-day trial version of JMP (www.jmp.com/trial for Windows or Mac) before the workshop.
Offering stat 102: social statistics for decision makers
Authors:   Augsburg College, Schield Milo
Published: June 2022

Statistical educators should support offering three introductory statistics courses: STAT 100 (Statistical Literacy for non-quantitative majors), STAT 101 (Traditional inferential statistics) and STAT 102 (Social statistics for decision makers). The support for the STAT 102 claim includes the needs of most students taking introductory statistics, the different kinds of decisions being made, the growing importance of big data, the limited amount of free time in the current STAT 101 course, the 2016 update to the GAISE guidelines, the importance of confounding in influencing statistical associations and the ability of confounding to influence statistical significance. This paper provides student-tested ways of showing and explaining confounding, statistical significance and the influence of confounding on statistical significance. Indeed 100% of the IASE respondents agreed that students should be shown how confounding can influence statistical significance, 84% agreed that failure to illustrate this confounder-significance connection constituted "professional negligence" and 69% agreed that statistical educators should support offering STAT 102 along with STAT 100 and STAT 101. In a separate survey of the Augsburg students taking this STAT 102 type course, 61% agreed or strongly agreed that a STAT 102 course should be required by all students for graduation. With most of these statistical educators supporting the existence of a STAT 102 course and most Augsburg students seeing significant value in such a course, the door is now open for a new generation of courses, textbooks and teachers.
Do we teach regression correctly?
Authors:   Plymouth University, Hewson Paul
Published: June 2022

Many interesting social phenomena are innately multidimensional and require suitable data modelling tools. Regression modelling (which includes log linear modelling for contingency tables as a special case) is often the „go-to'“ tool. However, much of the math theory was developed for designed experiments (where explanatory variables X are orthogonal and fixed). Conversely, societal data is often observational with random non-orthogonal X. The pedagogic route to data modelling usually starts with linear models before the introduction of the generalised linear models that can address contingency tables. Whilst good textbooks do feature caveats, the search for a parsimonious model is often carried out in a manner that may promote unsafe interpretation of observational data. This poster tries to present a case for a reform in the teaching of regression for observational data.

The "Limited" Assistance of Foreign Jurisprudence: Lessons from India and the United States on Sexuality and Governance
Authors: Lam Magdalene
Published: June 2022

The most recent Singapore Supreme Court decision of Ong Ming Johnson v Public Prosecutor [2020] SGHC 63 follows a slew of unsuccessful constitutional challenges to Singapore’s anti-sodomy legislation, s377A of the Penal Code. Despite growing domestic activism, there is little hope that the provision will be repealed by a conservative Parliament. The onus is therefore on the Singaporean judiciary to abolish this archaic feature of Singapore’s colonial past, and this Note proposes new strategies for challenging s377A. The failure of past s377A challenges does not foreclose the possibility of future success, and Singaporeans may take cues from the successes of United States and Indian litigants in challenging their domestic anti-sodomy laws. This Note adopts a cross-jurisdictional analysis of anti-sodomy challenges and argues for enhanced constitutional protection of the LGBTQ+ community under Art. 9 (right to life and liberty) and Art. 12 (equal protection) of the Singaporean Constitution.

Authenticating disability perspectives and advancing inclusive agendas that value disability identity in schools
Authors: Reddington Sarah
Published: June 2022

Inclusive programming has traditionally been framed through a medical model with an orientation that is concerned about young people with disabilities functioning aptitudes relative to developmental normative standards. As a result, children and youth with disabilities often experience school and community predominantly through intervention services. This study accesses the narratives of two young men with autism spectrum having experienced separate intervention services delivered outside the regular classroom when attending public school in Nova Scotia, Canada. This research is part of a larger project that explored twelve young men with AS experiences in public school. Their in-depth narratives reveal the importance of authenticating disability voices and locating more meaningful forms of inclusion beyond tiered intervention practices to prevent exclusion and ableist assumptions about their identities.

The paper presents the results of scientific research and ichthyological observations on Costesti-Stanca reservoir from the succesional point of view. It is the first scientific review on the state of ichthyofauna of this ecosystem since its formation. Along the time, the registered number of fish species has increased from 22 to 34. In the first years after the filling up of the reservoir (1980), the catches were numerically dominated by the perch – 46.5%, the common roach and the silver crucian carp – with 8.7% each. Due to the systematic populations with the economically valuable species (carp, pikeperch and bream), the qualitative and quantitative composition of ichthyofauna has stabilized since 1985. Currently, fluctuating hydrological conditions, prevailing during the spring-summer period, does not ensure successful natural reproduction of fish, this being an important limiting factor for the piscicolous productivity of reservoir.

Using a modern method of assessing emotional expression in the region of the rostral part of the head and auricles in laboratory rodents revealed significant differences in quantitative and especially in qualitative indicators of the expression of emotions in white rats depending on the degree of attractiveness and novelty of the food consumed, which indicates the possibility and adequacy of the application of this method as an alternative or additional in the study of expression of not only negative (as shown earlier), but also positive emotions in the context of the implementation of eating behavior and other types of activities. Experimental results show that food intake with hedonic properties in combination with limiting its amount and preliminary food deprivation significantly stimulates positive emotional expression, which is weakened with a decrease of the effect of novelty of the complex of sensory reflexogenic stimuli.

Authors:   Institutul de Genetică, Fiziologie şi Protecţie a Plantelor, Republica Moldova, Grăjdieru Cristina
Published: June 2022

Currents study aims to optimize and apply a conventional PCR protocol based on digital assay principle for quantification of pathogenic fungi in maize. Conventional PCR based on Poisson distribution is an effective and technically simple method for quantitative analysis of plant pathogens. It doesn’t require specific reagents or sophisticated laboratory equipment. Unlike qPCR, no standard curve is needed for quantifying the number of copies per sample. It permitted to quantify several toxigenic and non-toxigenic fungal pathogens in maize plants and reveal genome impact on the quantity of fungal DNA in host organism. Overall, fungal quantity was lowest in ‘MK01’ and ‘KU123’ and highest in ‘CP137’. High quantity of fungal DNA was also computed for ‘CP148’. For ‘B73’ the fungal DNA quantity was in between the same values for ‘KU123’ and ‘CP148’.

The introduction of low-density polyethylene (LDPE, 1-5 g/kg) into a poorly humified Typical chernozem resulted in negative effects on the growth of soybean plants and formation of nodules on their roots. At the same time this toxic impact from LDPE was completely neutralized after the soybean seeds had been bacterized with the Rhizobium japonicum RD2 strain – there were no statistical differences in the plant growth parameters and root nodule number observed between the parallel cases where the bacterized seeds were grown in soil with and without LDPE. The introduction of LDPE into soil had a significant stimulating effect in the case of vetch plants: the plant dry biomass increased by 39,3-64,3%, and the number of root nodules – by 2,4-2,8 times. As a result, it was demonstrated that soybean and vetch plants possess a phytoremediation potential for the cases of soil pollution by LDPE. Further research is recommended to evaluate and implement this potential.

The present study aimed to investigate the effect of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on the productivity of red microalga Porphyridium cruentum and the content of some biologically active compounds of technological interest in biomass. We used citrate-stabilized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with a diameter of 5 nm at concentrations from 0.5 to 1.5 nM and a diameter of 10 nm at concentrations from 0.005 to 0.1 nM. The results demonstrated the lack of toxicity of the nanoparticles used, which was confirmed by the maintenance of an adequate level of microalgae productivity and protein content in biomass. Concentrations have been established for each of the applied AuNPs, which provide an increased accumulation of phycobiliproteins in porphyiridium biomass.

Penelitian ini melihat fenomena kepatuhan wajib pajak di Indonesia, khususnya wajib pajak yang mempunyai bidang usaha berklasifikasi Usaha Mikro Kecil dan Menengah (UMKM). Sesuai dengan cita-cita Presiden Joko Widodo  di bidang perekonomian kerakyatan, pemerintah terus memberikan kebijakan insentif tarif pajak yaitu berupa penurunan tarif pajak bagi UMKM. Sebelumnya tarif pajak UMKM diatur dalam Peraturan Pemerintah (PP) No.46 Tahun 2013 yang bertarif final 1% dari peredaran bruto, sekarang pemerintah menurunkan tarif perpajakan melalui PP No.23 Tahun 2018 menjadi sebesar 0,5%. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis kualitatif, yaitu metode yang dilakukan dengan cara menganalisis data yang terdapat pada penelitian ini, kemudian hasil analisis tersebut diwujudkan menjadi kuantitaif. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah data primer yang diperoleh dari hasil kuesioner dan wawancara. Penentuan responden dilakukan dengan menggunakan teknik random sampling, sebanyak 200 wajib pajak pelaku usaha UMKM di DKI Jakarta dan DI Yogyakarta baik perorangan maupun badan menjadi sampel yang digunakan pada penelitian ini, penyebaran kuesioner dilakukan pada tahun 2019. Dari hasil analisis membuktikan bahwa penurunan tarif pajak UMKM berpengaruh terhadap kepatuhan wajib pajak, patriotisme berpengaruh terhadap kepatuhan wajib pajak dan patriotisme mampu memoderasi (memperkuat) pengaruh antara penurunan tarif pajak terhadap kepatuhan wajib pajak. Kedepannya diharapkan Kebijakan seperti ini dapat diambil diberbagai sektor usaha untuk meningkatkan rasa kepedulian dan kepatuhan wajib pajak dalam menjalankan kewajiban perpajakannya.

Aesthetic Experience of Artworks in Virtual Reality: The Role of Openness to Experience, Telepresence, and Authenticity
Authors:   Korean Association of Arts Management, Lee Hyunji , Youn Nara
Published: June 2022

Social distancing implemented to prevent the spread of COVID-19 has made it very difficult for people to enjoy and appreciate works of art the way we used to. In order to overcome these situational limitations, many artistic event organizers are paying attention to virtual reality technology. The technology allows potential visitors to appreciate artworks in realistic settings without visiting art galleries, museums, or performance halls in real life. This study shows that openness to experience of persons appreciating artworks has a positive effect on the perceived telepresence and authenticity of artworks presented using virtual reality technology. This study further shows that this improved telepresence and authenticity enhance overall aesthetic experience. Through two experiments, we demonstrate that openness to experience, an individual trait variable, acts as a moderating factor influencing aesthetic experience, and the path from perceived telepresence to authenticity mediates the effect of appreciating art through virtual reality on aesthetic experience. By providing a better understanding of the psychological process underlying the effect of appreciating art using virtual reality on aesthetic experience, this study contributes to the fields intersecting art and technology.

This research study has a mission to highlight the nature of the ethnographic research method, how it came into existence, its purpose of it, what type of tools it uses, what are its limitations, and what significance it induces in Pakistan’s research. Ethnography is also defined as the manifestation of writing a textual context after the conduction of a long, complex process. Ethnographic viewpoints are established depending upon the way of work is conducted. It leads the ethnographer to enter the world every day. It encourages extracting the information about a community under study in cultural contexts. Ethnographic study goals can be accomplished within the standard time of a year which is a minimum requirement. As per the research criteria, it can also take more than a year. However, it is also true that sometimes due to more specific and focused research it takes very little time as compared to the standard time to cover the whole culture of the community of interest. This research paper is based on the SLR methodology. A total of 100 of the articles were identified and retrieved from one of the databases HEC National Digital Library. After identification, 05 research articles were evaluated for data synthesis. For SLR implication, the researcher has collected literature information purposefully that induces to conduct methodological analysis without or with very less biasness. The main thrust of SLR was the formulation of a general view regarding the specific research question of the current study and giving it a literature summary. Application of SLR methodology is found significant to employ in development-planning research in Pakistan based on Ethnography.

Authors: Manuel Lladós I. , Moro Ípola M.
Published: June 2022

Se presenta la creación de un cuestionario para la evaluación de factores ambientales relevantes en el déficit visual, basado en el capítulo de barreras ambientales de la Clasificación Internacional del Funcionamiento, la Discapacidad y la Salud de la Organización Mundial de la Salud. El cuestionario, denominado BAC-DV, tiene dos partes: un inventario de barreras físicas y tecnológicas y un cuestionario de actitudes. La selección inicial del contenido se realizó a partir de análisis de narrativas de entrevistas, revisión de la literatura y juicio de expertos. Se realizaron dos estudios empíricos. En el primero se calculó la fiabilidad de las dos partes y se eliminaron algunas preguntas poco representativas. El segundo estudio se centró en el inventario de barreras físicas y tecnológicas y permitió obtener su estructura, así como estudiar las características de los ítems. El inventario de barreras tiene cinco escalas: Exteriores, Interiores, Productos de la vida cotidiana, Tecnología de la información y comunicación y Obstáculos. El cuestionario de actitudes tiene tres escalas: Prejuicio, Condescendencia y Discriminación. Son necesarios estudios posteriores de validez y estructura, pero se puede afirmar que BAC-DV tiene validez de contenido y consistencia interna y es una aportación novedosa en la rehabilitación de la discapacidad visual.

Coordinate Transformation of Buoy Based on Fractional Complex Valued Neural Network
Authors: Zhifu Guo Zhifu Guo , Zhifu Guo Han Xue
Published: June 2022

To reduce the error of coordinate transformation, a fractional order convex valued neural network (FCVNN) is explored. The convergence is proved. We take the longitude as the real part of the input, and take the latitude as the imaginary part of the input. Thus, we construct the complex valued input of the CVNN. All longitudes and latitudes on the earth are perpendicular to each other. This satisfies that the real part and imaginary part of the complex form an orthogonal unit basis. Input Xiamen 92 space coordinates and WGS-84 space coordinates obtained from the transformation as the training samples. The weights of neural network are updated. Input the geodetic coordinates of test data and output the geodetic coordinates of WGS84 corresponding to the results. FCVNN is applied to Xiamen 92 coordinate transformation, and the transformation accuracy is improved. Using the orthogonality of longitude and latitude, CVNN are constructively used to solve the coordinate transformation problem. Many insights can be transferred from real domain to complex domain. If the data exists naturally in the complex domain, or can be meaningfully moved to the complex plane, the complex neural network should be used for the task.

 
Fault Diagnosis under Varying Working Conditions with Domain Adversarial Capsule Networks
Authors: Feiyan Fan Feiyan Fan , Feiyan Fan Jiazhen Hou , Jiazhen Hou Tanghuai Fan
Published: June 2022

Most existing studies that develop fault diagnosis methods focus on performance under steady operation while overlooking adaptability under varying working conditions. This results in the low generalization of the fault diagnosis methods. In this study, a novel deep transfer learning architecture is proposed for fault diagnosis under varying working conditions. A modified capsule network is developed by combining the domain adversarial framework and classical capsule network to simultaneously recognize the machinery fault and working conditions. The novelty of the proposed architecture mainly lies in the integration of the domain adversarial mechanism and capsule network. The idea of the domain adversarial mechanism is exploited in transfer learning, which can achieve a promising performance in cross-condition fault diagnosis tasks. With the novel architecture, learned features exhibit identical or very similar distributions in the source and target domains. Hence, the deep learning architecture trained in one working condition can be applicable to discriminative conditions without being hindered by the shift between the two domains. The proposed method is applied to analyze vibrations of a bearing system acquired under different working conditions, i.e., loads and rolling speed. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method outperforms other state-of-the-art methods in fault diagnosis under varying working conditions.

 
Bayesian Personalized Ranking with the Synthesis of Multiple User and Item Classification

Published: June 2022

In recent years, rapidly evolving networks have facilitated data interactions between users and goods, and recommender systems have emerged due to the needs of the times. Implicit feedback in recommender systems always is divided into the observed item set and unobserved item set. However, items in the unobserved set often are treated equally, and the items that are of potential interest to users are not sufficiently exploited from unobserved items. In this paper, we come up with a method to solve the problem of the insufficient exploration of unrated items, and we contribute to the additional alleviation of rating sparseness. To do so, we propose a novel Bayesian personalized ranking with the synthesis of multiple users and item classification (BPRS). For each user, we divide the items into three categories, which are positive, interest and negative. We conduct multiple user classification and item classification to exploit the items that are of interest and generate the final ranking. Experiments on three real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm for greatly improving the accuracy of recommendation results and alleviating the cold-start problem.

Malicious code threatens the safety of computer systems. Researching malicious code design techniques and mastering code behavior patterns are the basic work of network security prevention. With the game of network offense and defense, malicious code shows the characteristics of invisibility, polymorphism, and multi-dismutation. How to correctly and effectively understand malicious code and extract the key malicious features is the main goal of malicious code detection technology. As an important method of program understanding, program slicing is used to analyze the program code by using the idea of “decomposition”, and then extract the code fragments that the analyst is interested in. In recent years, data mining and machine learning techniques have been applied to the field of malicious code detection. The reason why it has become the focus of research is that it can use data mining to dig out meaningful patterns from a large amount of existing code data. Machine learning can It helps to summarize the identification knowledge of known malicious code, so as to conduct similarity search and help find unknown malicious code. The machine learning heuristic malicious code detection method firstly needs to automatically or manually extract the structure, function and behavior characteristics of the malicious code, so we can first slice the malicious code and then perform the detection. Through the improvement of the classic program slicing algorithm, this paper effectively improves the slicing problem between binary code processes. At the same time, it implements a malicious code detection system. The machine code byte sequence variable-length N-gram is used as the feature extraction method to further prove that the efficiency and accuracy of malicious code detection technology based on data mining and machine learning.

 
Poe as a Patron Saint of Murder
Authors: Savoye Jeffrey A.
Published: June 2022

Although he wrote about many other things, Poe has long been somewhat pigeonholed as the author of tales featuring dramatic deaths and as the father of the modern detective story. That combination appears to have made him an irresistible connection for journalists seeking to add interest to an ongoing series of articles about murder. Such articles not only caught the eye of general readers but may have been intended to serve as a warning to those who were guilty of having committed the crimes—you may find it impossible to keep your secret.
Images from Japanese English Teaching Materials as an Ageist Hidden Curriculum
Authors:   Purdue University Language and Cultural Exchange (PLaCE), Brown Charles Allen
Published: June 2022

Ageism in mass media is of great concern with older individuals often being stereotyped or simply rendered invisible. Yet research is largely silent on ageism in English language teaching (ELT) materials. Given the power of English education, the impact of visual media, and the tendency for English teaching materials to include visual depictions of people, such research is warranted. In response, a content analysis of 7350 visuals of people from Japanese ELT resources was conducted in the study described here. The goal was to understand four issues. First, how visible were the elderly overall? Second, given intergenerational friction as one outgrowth of ageism, did these materials normalize intergenerational interactions including the elderly? Third, to what extent did these materials exhibit ageism of women since ‘gendered ageism’ is an especially important issue? Fourth, to what extent did these materials either reproduce or subvert stereotypes of the elderly? Findings indicated that the amount of representation was biased against the elderly, that intergenerational interactions involving the elderly were scant, and that older women were especially underrepresented. While some of the elderly depictions were stereotypical, others did portray elderly people positively, as socially-involved and vigorous. These findings demonstrate the need for greater sensitivity to an ageist hidden curriculum in ELT.
