English for Pre-Diploma MOOC
Authors: Mohammad Pate Iza Faradiba , Harun Nora , Hasni Nurul Ain
Published: June 2021

Over the years, there are numerous effective learning strategies suggested in the area of language learning which are having a clear motivation (Gardner and Lambert,1972; Krashen, 1982), low affective filter (Dulay and Burt, 1977; Krashen, 1988) and continuous language practice or drills (Gass and  Selinker,  2008).  On the contrary, conventional language lessons fail to address the gap in increasing learners’ motivation, overcoming anxiety during peer-to-peer interactions and discussion, which result in frustrations among the learners. In addition, an exorbitant number of students in a class makes it impossible for the instructor to focus on individual learners. English for Pre-Diploma MOOC helps to create fun and engaging learning experience for learners to increase their motivation in learning the language. It also facilitates the learners especially the introverts to discover and explore the language in a more interactive and less threatening setting. Furthermore, it attempts to promote critical thinking skills and knowledge of the world through the activities and online discussions. The extended activities in the MOOC elicit high order responses from the learners while the teaching module consists of appealing themes and interactive teaching videos that cater to the interest and unique individual learning styles. Some of the noticeable impacts on learners are they become more active and responsive as learning happens at any time, at their own pace and convenience. Moreover, they benefit from interactions with learners of various backgrounds and maturity levels. As a result, they become highly motivated, independent, critical and reliable learners of the language

Authors: Harun Haliza , Ab. Wahab Nursyuhada’ , Abdullah Norhana , Zainuddin Nurkhamimi
Published: June 2021

A great deal of discussion centers on finding the effective solutions to enhance language learners’ competency and English language-skills to achieve the target communicative competence.  While grammar instruction is regarded as crucial in acquiring the target English language, many of its’ learners are still found to have poor grasps in the language. Subsequently, GLOw@CBI may offer a revolutinised approach to the teaching and learning of English grammar rules (i.e. tenses). The theoretical foundation of GLOw@CBI is based on consolidating the theory of  cognitive grammar model (Radden and Dirven 2007) and Vygotsky’s Systemic-Theoretical Instruction (STI) (1978) to create online lessons and exercises on grammar tenses that are easy to understand and meaningful  to serve the learners’ communicative purposes. The distinctive feature of GLOw@CBI is the emphasis given on the semantic aspect of the language, rather than only focusing on its’ structure and function as reflected in many of the traditional grammar approaches. Thus, the strength of GLOw@CBI lies in the representation of the concept of tenses that are uniquely presented through the manipulation of ‘viewing frames’ to describe the target actions, situations and events. GLOw@CBI not only allows flexibility in online language learning, but it is also cost-effective, due to its’ ability to enroll a large number of learners without any restrictions of users per-licensing. Moreover, due to its’ unique presentation of grammar-rules, GLOW@CBI has the potential to be expanded to other grammar components in its’ learning platform or even to be used to teach grammar of other foreign language courses.

Published: June 2021

Single sentences are commonly used to develop objective questions that are used to evaluatestudents’ learning progress. It is crucially important to be able to develop objective questions of differentdifficulty levels consistently. Therefore, B1 Single Sentence Descriptors (B1-SSD) is invented to facilitateinstructors who need to construct single sentences that are used for developing objective questions ofthree difficulty levels at B1 or the intermediate level of English proficiency. To date, there is no descriptorsfor single sentences found on Google Search. From the studies that have been published so far, thereare limited readability formula for single sentences that can be used as guidelines for constructing singlesentences of different difficulty levels. Moreover, the studies employ a strenuous process of determiningof single sentence readability. Therefore, B1-SSD has specified the features for single sentences of threedifficulty levels at B1 or the intermediate level of English proficiency that that are more easily determined.The features can be analysed by using free resources such as the sentence depth by using Enju athttp://www.nactem.ac.uk/enju/demo.html and the vocabulary level by using Online Cambridge Dictionaryat http://dictionary.cambridge.org/. B1-SSD is significantly useful to facilitate instructors in in developingobjective questions faster, more easily and economically. It also has a great potential in developingobjective questions for learning assessments and instructional games that have commercial values for aspecified target group.

Published: June 2021

Teaching students to learn new vocabularies and sequencing of ideas can be challenging to many students as they might find such tasks to be challenging boring. Thus, interactive teaching materials are necessary in grabbing learners’ attention span and interests, and in enhancing their involvement. DishZle is a self-designed 2-in-1 language game which makes learning English be more interactive and exciting with its colourful pictures. It also engages the players’ involvements via team play and cooperation. The theme of this game focuses on various traditional dishes in Malaysia. Students who play this game can enhance their pre-existing knowledge of local dishes, learn new words (local dishes and ingredients) andimprove their sequencing skills by using linkers. The game is suitable for beginner to intermediate learners of English in any ESL classrooms (as pre or post activities). To add, DishZle can also be introduced to foreign tourists who wish to know more about our local dishes. Travel agencies andhospitality services can offer enjoyable and rewarding activities for the tourists by displaying this game at tourism spots, hotels, homestays or holiday resorts. As the matter of fact, tourists can even purchase the game as souvenirs. The novelties of the game are it involves pictorial illustrations of famous yet authentic local dishes and the ingredients through magnetic board and its pieces, and jumbled arrangements of dish preparations in the form of flip charts. This game can be used in ESL classroom as it enhances fun learning, communicative competency, team work and cooperation as well as develops English language components.

PAIRWISE CLUSTERS OPTIMIZATION AND CLUSTER MOST SIGNIFICANT FEATURE METHODS FOR ANOMALY-BASED NETWORK INTRUSION DETECTION SYSTEM (POC2MSF)
Authors: Hatungimana Gervais
Published: June 2021

Anomaly-based Intrusion Detection System (IDS) uses known baseline to detect patterns which have deviated from normal behavior. If the baseline is faulty, the IDS performance degrades. Most of researches in IDS which use k-centroids-based clustering methods like K-means, K-medoids, Fuzzy, Hierarchical and agglomerative algorithms to baseline network traffic suffer from high false positive rate compared to signature-based IDS, simply because the nature of these algorithms risk to force some network traffic into wrong profiles depending on K number of clusters needed. In this paper we propose alternate method which instead of defining K number of clusters, defines t distance threshold. The unrecognizable IDS; IDS which is neither HIDS nor NIDS is the consequence of using statistical methods for features selection. The speed, memory and accuracy of IDS are affected by inappropriate features reduction method or ignorance of irrelevant features. In this paper we use two-step features selection and Quality Threshold with Optimization methods to design anomaly-based HIDS and NIDS separately. The performance of our system is 0% ,99.9974%, 1,1 false positive rates, accuracy , precision and recall respectively for NIDS and  0%,99.61%, 0.991,0.978 false positive rates, accuracy, precision and recall respectively for HIDS.

FORECASTING FRESH WATER AND MARINE FISH PRODUCTION IN MALAYSIA USING ARIMA AND ARFIMA MODELS
Authors: Mah P J W , Ihwal N A M , Azizan N Z
Published: June 2021

Malaysia is surrounded by sea, rivers and lakes which provide natural sources of fish for human consumption. Hence, fish is one source of protein supply to the country and fishery is a sub-sector that contribute to the national gross domestic product. Since fish forecasting is crucial in fisheries management for managers and scientists, time series modelling can be one useful tool. Time series modelling have been used in many fields of studies including the fields of fisheries. In a previous research, the ARIMA and ARFIMA models were used to model marine fish production in Malaysia and the ARFIMA model emerged to be a better forecast model. In this study, we consider fitting the ARIMA and ARFIMA to both the marine and freshwater fish production in Malaysia. The process of model fitting was done using the “ITSM 2000, version 7.0” software. The performance of the models were evaluated using the mean absolute error, root mean square error and mean absolute percentage error. It was found in this study that the selection of the best fit model depends on the forecast accuracy measures used.
A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF UNIVARIATE TIME SERIES MODELLING FOR NATURAL RUBBER PRODUCTION IN MALAYSIA
Authors: Mah P J W , Buhary F N , Abdullah N H , Saad S A M
Published: June 2021

Malaysia is one of the top countries that produces natural rubber and was ranked sixth place globally. The earnings from natural rubber products are making billions of ringgit for the country. However, over the past years the natural rubber production in Malaysia has been inconsistent and the deficiencies in the production can affect Malaysia’s economy. Therefore, it is important for relevant agencies and departments to understand the patterns and trends of natural rubber production in Malaysia besides having the ability to forecast. Hence, the integrated autoregressive moving average (ARIMA), seasonal autoregressive moving average (SARIMA) and the seasonal Holt-Winter’s model were being considered for the purpose of modelling and forecasting this study. The forecast accuracy criteria used to evaluate the performance of the models are the root mean square error (RMSE) and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). The results showed that the seasonal Holt-Winter’s model appeared to be the best model as it yielded the lowest RMSE and MAPE values. The seasonal Holt-Winter’s model, however, is not a good choice of model as it was unable to forecast six months ahead values. On the other hand, the SARIMA model had a better forecast ability when forecasting the values for the same duration. Therefore, the SARIMA model is taken to be the model in forecasting the natural rubber production in Malaysia for that period. This study has shown that the best fit model that fulfil all the forecast accuracy criteria may not have the best forecast ability.

INVESTIGATION OF SPEECH DISFLUENCIES CLASSIFICATION ON DIFFERENT THRESHOLD SELECTION TECHNIQUES USING ENERGY FEATURE EXTRACTION
Authors: Hamzah Raseeda , Jamil Nursuriati
Published: June 2021

Filled pause and Elongation are the two types of speech disfluencies that need more suitable acoustical features to be classified correctly since they are always being misclassified. This work concentrates on developing an accurate and robust energy feature extraction for modelling filled pause and elongation by investigating different energy features using local maxima points of the speech energy. Method: In this paper, we extracted peak values from each frame of a voiced signal by implementing different thresholding techniques to classify filled pause and elongation. These energy features are evaluated by using statistical naïve Bayes classifier to see the contribution on the classification processes. Various samples of sustained syllables and filled pauses of spontaneous speech were extracted from Malaysian Parliamentary Debate Database of the year 2008. A naïve Bayes was used as a classifier. We performed F-measure evaluation to investigate the significant differences in mean of filled pause and elongation samples. Results: Results revealed that our proposed LM-E has increase the classification with up to 71% and 75% F-measure for elongation and filled pause. Conclusion:  The best achieved accuracies in both filled pause and elongation classification were varied depending on the types of thresholding techniques applied during the local maxima of speech energy extraction. The most contributed thresholding technique is our proposed technique which is by using the adaptive height as the threshold that extracts the local maxima of the speech energy (LM-E).

Published: June 2021

Malaysia is reported to experience explosive rise in the demand of transport vehicles in recent years due to rapid economic development and population growth. As a result, air pollution is expected to increase in conjunction with the increase in the number of the vehicles.  In particular, Carbon Monoxide (CO) has been identified as the main component of the emission sources from vehicles other than Nitrogen Oxide (NOx), hydrocarbon lead and particulate matter of size less than 10 micron (PM10).  This provides the reason why CO concentration is often used to reflect traffic density in an area. CO has both short-term and long-term effect on human’s health. Thus, knowledge on CO behaviour and the future levels at an area is important to help decision makers in managing air pollution due to vehicles emission in the country. This study was conducted to describe CO data and to determine a suitable time series model to enable the prediction of CO levels at two industrial sites; Perai and Pasir Gudang, Malaysia. The model obtained could help management to mitigate CO pollution at the sites. The analysis was conducted using daily maximum data which was obtained from the Department of Environment Malaysia from 2010 to 2014. The performance of the best model was determined using several performance measures such as MAE, RMSE and MAPE.   The study has found that the most appropriate time series model for Perai is ARIMA (3,1,1) and for Pasir Gudang is SARIMA (2, 1, 8) (1, 1, 2)7.
CHEST X-RAY IMAGE CLASSIFICATION USING FASTER R-CNN
Authors: Ismail Azlan , Rahmat Taufik , Aliman Sharifah
Published: June 2021

Chest x-ray image analysis is the common medical imaging exam needed to assess different pathologies. Having an automated solution for the analysis can contribute to minimizing the workloads, improve efficiency and reduce the potential of reading errors. Many methods have been proposed to address chest x-ray image classification and detection. However, the application of regional-based convolutional neural networks (CNN) is currently limited. Thus, we propose an approach to classify chest x-ray images into either one of two categories, pathological or normal based on Faster Regional-CNN model. This model utilizes Region Proposal Network (RPN) to generate region proposals and perform image classification. By applying this model, we can potentially achieve two key goals, high confidence in the classification and reducing the computation time. The results show the applied model achieved higher accuracy as compared to the medical representatives on the random chest x-ray images. The classification model is also reasonably effective in classifying between finding and normal chest x-ray image captured through a live webcam.
On Ritual and Legislation
Authors: Hutton Eric L
Published: June 2021

Confucian thinkers have traditionally stressed the importance of li 禮, or “ritual” as it is commonly translated, and believed that ancient sages had established an ideal set of rituals for people to follow. Now, most scholars of Confucianism understand li as distinct from law, and hence do not typically discuss Confucian sages as great lawgivers. Nevertheless, I suggest that there is something valuable to be learned from considering the similarities and dissimilarities between great lawgivers and the sages. In particular, this essay reviews some of the challenges for, and virtues of, great legislators, and compares and contrasts these with the challenges for, and virtues of, master inventors of ritual, with the aim of showing how such observations might deepen our understanding of the conception of sages in the Confucian tradition, while perhaps also bringing out certain insights about good lawgivers. I end by using these reflections to point to some challenges for developing rituals to fit our modern context.
Engaging in a New Field: Business Owning Families’ Differential Approach to Impact Investing
Authors: Cruz Cristina , Justo Rachida , Roche Jeanne
Published: June 2021

We develop a theoretical framework explaining why and how business owning families (BOF) engage in impact investing. Despite its exponential growth, the burgeoning field impact investing is still subject to competing interpretations and varying practices. Building on the framework proposed by Nason et al. (2019b), we argue that a BOF’s frame of reference (backward vs. forward looking and internally vs. externally oriented) constitutes a relevant heterogeneity that triggers a unique driver for engaging in impact investing and a distinct set of practices to do so.
Fit for the Future? The Cultural DNA of Spanish and Latin American Family Businesses
Authors: Valera Paco , Feliu Neus , Lansberg Ivan
Published: June 2021

We use the metaphor of biological DNA and its essential building blocks to describe generic and specific family business cultures and suggest that Spanish-speaking or "Latin" family businesses inherited four key cultural DNA building blocks—Trust, Loyalty, Authority and Justice—from historical Roman times. Like biological DNA, family businesses are forced to change when its environment changes. In this context, we discuss recent changes representing paradigm shifts to which family businesses relying on “Roman DNA” must adapt in order to be fit for the future. We draw upon our firm's 30 years of work consulting to Latin family businesses and present a wide range of supporting cases and stories.

The application of ozone as a supportive therapy has been widely discussed. Ozone has antimicrobial, antioxidant, and healing properties. This study presents two cases of ozone application as a supportive therapy for gingival tissue repair after facial trauma. In both cases, patients suffered extensive lacerations with bone exposure. Tissues were repositioned and sutured; however, ischemia was observed during follow-up with potential tissue necrosis. Each patient received ozone gas with a concentration of 4 μg/ml. Then, the wound was irrigated with 40 mL of ozonated water at a final concentration of 8 μg/ml. The procedure was held weekly until clinical improvement. A significant improvement was observed in ischemia without evolution to necrosis or infection, allowing gingival tissue preservation. Ozone showed a beneficial effect in the recovery of gingiva and alveolar mucosa wounds after extensive trauma.
Multipliers based on oil and gas production and reserves as national vertically integrated oil companies’ indicator of lucrativeness for investors
Authors: SHIMKO Oleg V.
Published: June 2021

Subject. The article investigates ratios of market capitalization to production and proven reserves held by the twenty five major public oil and gas corporations within 2008 through 2018.
Objectives. I trace key trends in ratios of market capitalization to production and proven reserves in major public oil and gas corporations. The article also determines what caused such transformation for the analyzable period and indicates whether such multipliers are applicable to business valuations in the oil and gas sector.
Methods. I use methods of comparative, financial and economic analysis, and summarize materials of financial statements.
Results. The analyzable multipliers were found to be applicable to business valuation of oil and gas corporations. If a company has oil refining and petrochemisry segments in its architecture, it will have a favorable effect on ratios. The company will also benefit if its profitability is higher than that of competitors. National companies and their indicators are seen to be influenced by the country factor, which should be taken into account for purposes of business valuation. Ratios depend on the availability of proven reserves. This aspect influences the multiplier of ratio of market capitalization to proven reserves. Therefore, it is advisable in case of similar proven reserves in comparable companies. Hence, it is more preferable to use the multiplier of the ratio of market capitalization to production.
Conclusions and Relevance. It is acceptable to use the multiplier with reference to the information on production even if the profitability goes down and the debt burden increases in the listed sector of the global oil and gas industry, while the ratio based on proven reserves is more reasonable as an auxiliary indicator. The findings can be used to appraise the possible value of oil and gas assets as part of the comparable approach. They can also underlie measures for raising the market capitalization of public oil and gas companies.
Building the export-oriented innovation network in high-tech industry
Authors: MA'RUFI Maksud
Published: June 2021

Subject. The article addresses the process of forming the composition of participants in the export-oriented innovation network.
Objectives. I focus on developing and testing a conceptual approach to the formation of an export-oriented innovation network in the field of high technologies.
Methods. The study rests on the works by A. Marshall on centripetal and centrifugal forces that arise in the environment of interaction between various economic actors. I also use methods of multivariate statistical analysis and stochastic modeling of factor systems. The data of the World Trade Organization, the World Bank, and the official websites of organizations in the field of creating intelligent transport systems serve as the information basis for analytical procedures.
Results. I developed a conceptual approach to the selection of participants in the export-oriented innovation network, based on the dynamic differentiation of their composition, depending on the propensity to carry out either innovation or production activities. I obtained the testing results of the developed approach, using the conditions of functioning of forty Russian enterprises and organizations involved in the creation of intelligent vehicles.
Conclusions. The testing results confirmed the hypothesis about the differentiation of the composition of participants in the innovation network based on the aptitude for either innovative or production activities, and demonstrated the possibility of using the developed approach in relation to solving the problems of designing export-oriented network structures with different industry and technological specializations.

Published: June 2021

Subject. We study the main processes, characterizing the circular economy in the water sector.
Objectives. The purpose is to research issues related to circular economy, including the water reuse, to develop proposals for the formation of a roadmap for the transition to a circular economy model.
Methods. The study employs analytical and logical methods, theoretical insights into the analysis of processes related to the circular economy, and practical works of countries on the formation of a roadmap for transition to a circular economy model.
Results. The paper concludes on strengths and weaknesses, the potential and possible threats of water reuse in the implementation of the circular economy concept. It identifies obstacles hindering the dissemination of principles of the circular economy in Russia, in particular, the practices for reuse of water resources. We present proposals to develop a roadmap for successful implementation of the circular economy concept.
Conclusions. The proposals can provide a basis for forming an idea of a closed-loop economy in a country or region. They can be used at the stage of transition to a circular economy at the national and regional levels, to achieve sustainable development goals.

Published: June 2021

Subject. We consider the economic relations that arise in the process of formation and implementation of the regional tax policy.
Objectives. The purpose is to analyze the regional tax policy considering the Republic of Dagestan as a case study.
Methods. The study employs methods of statistical, economic and mathematical, and systems analysis.
Results. We propose measures that may be implemented in the system of tax policy of the Republic of Dagestan and contribute to its improvement in conditions of financial instability. Nevertheless, these proposals require further attention, a deeper level of design and development of testing scheme. They may also be used to study the tax policy of the region.
Conclusions. The comprehensive analysis shows that the tax policy and other approaches to the regulation of the economic life of the country have advantages and disadvantages. It is obvious that the application of these tools may have a positive impact on the economy.
