Authors:   The Correction Welfare Society of Korea, Kim Junho
Published: May 2023

The purpose of this study is to analyze the types of exchanges between prisoners and their children and the explanatory factors. For this purpose, latent group analysis and general structural equation model were used. As a result of the analysis, first, 64.9% of the prisoners were interacting with their children, and correspondence was used the most. Second, the type of exchange of prisoners can be divided into a passive group and an active group. Overall, the active group used a variety of child exchange methods compared to the passive group. Third, the higher the age, the better the relationship with the child caregiver, and the more female than male, the higher the possibility of belonging to the active group than the passive group in the case of recognizing the fact of acceptance. Based on these research results, measures to expand exchanges between children of inmates and their implications were proposed.

Emerging Methodology to Inform Design Evaluation: Mind the Perception
Authors:   University of Maryland, Simon Madlen , Hu Ming ,   University of Maryland
Published: May 2023

The predominant tools for evaluation of built environment features have been user response surveys and expert panel scoring, applied to actual environments or to visual representations of urban environments in drawing or model form (Nasar 1994, Ewing and Handy 2009, Adkins et al 2012). Here we propose to test the validity of combining electro¬encephalography (EEG) and virtual reality (VR) to overcome the problem of confounding variables in real environments or their representations and to elicit actual user responses in real time. This research combines a neuroscientific technology with an emerging design technology to record electrophysiological brain activity of participants in a well-controlled three-dimensional virtual audiovisual environment. Experimental subjects are immersed in three different virtual urban settings while wearing EEG equipment. A device called Emotive EPOC Insight, a low-cost mobile EEG recorder, will be employed to monitor the brain activities. The aim of this research project is to develop and test a methodology using data-driven approach, rather than user-reported, responses for evaluation of built environment design features.
Manufacturing Weather: The Carrier Igloo in Three Orders of Magnitude
Authors:   Yale University, Weng Jia
Published: May 2023

When introduced into the field of architecture, the notion of Anthropocene has inevitably fused natural and cultural processes, architectural and technological environments, as well as world and geology. No longer can architectural research overlook the very small (air molecules) and the very large (planets). Although architectural processes have long penetrated scales far beyond the human sensory, architectural histories have not projected meaning and value to these scales. This paper addresses issues concerning the scales of modern architectural processes with a particular focus on the development of air-conditioning technology in the early 20th century. It studies the first architecture dedicated to showcasing air-conditioning, the Carrier Igloo of Tomorrow, in the 1939 New York. The paper adopts “scale” as a method of investigation and examines the Carrier Pavilion in three orders of magnitude, encompassing molecules, bodies, and worlds. Drawing from historical photographs of the pavilion and promotion materials of the Carrier Corporation, this paper presents a multi-scalar montage of air-conditioning technology, the Carrier Corporation, as well as their architectural manifestations. On the one hand, the paper reveals the role that air-conditioning played in shaping the modern interior and the consciousness of its occupants. On the other hand, it argues that the meaning of air has not lost. It exists as the air-conditioning systems formally and physically inter¬sect with buildings. By reconsidering how the human body might engage with architectural features like control panels, ducts, and vents, architects can access and even change the significance of air.

The ability to think at a high level in the 21st century is certainly very important, especially in the world of education which is expected to be able to produce a superior generation who is ready to face problems in the future. According to the Ministry of Education and Culture (2021) that Higher Education personnel and Indonesian students who are part of the productive age need to prepare themselves early by honing and improving 5C skills. This is in line with the construction of 5C skills consisting of Complex Problem Solving, Critical Thinking, Creativity, Coordinating with Others, Cognitive Flexibility. Critical thinking skills can be developed through a learning model, one of which is a discovery-based learning model (discovery learning). This study aims to determine the influence of the discovery learning model on the critical thinking ability of elementary school (MI / SD) students. This research uses a quantitative approach with quasi-experimental research methods with a nonequivalent control group design design. This study sampled 48 students. The data collection technique uses a question instrument in the form of a description consisting of 10 valid and reliable questions. Data analysis techniques for normality tests use kolmogorov-smirnov technique, for homogeneity tests using levene tests with test criteria based on mean and t-tests for hypothesis testing. To find out whether or not there is an influence on students' critical thinking skills, a t test is carried out using an independent sample t test. From the test results of the pretest hypothesis count = 0.882 and ttabel = 1.67, it can be concluded that there is no difference between the pretest results of the experimental class and the pretest results of the control class. As for testing the posttest hypothesis, the calculated value = 6.455 and ttabel = 1.67 were obtained, so it can be concluded that there is a difference between the posttest results of the experimental class and the posttest results of the control class. This can be interpreted to mean that the ability to think critically using the discovery learning model is higher than the conventional model (cooperative model).

Published: May 2023

Education is an educational process to educate children. Education does not only make children smart and skilled, but education also has a more important goal, namely to make children have a good attitude. This change in attitude occurs because of the veil of values through character education. Currently, character values in children have begun to fade due to the influence of various technological advances in all fields. This will certainly facilitate and speed up the entry of foreign values and culture that are not yet known about the good and bad for children. Efforts to cover national character can be done by combining aspects of education and aspects of local culture. In practice, local coloring is colored with a variety of positive values that can be used as meaning in living life. This study aims to analyze the character values contained in the Sundanese seren taun ceremony. The method used is descriptive analysis. Data collection was obtained by conducting direct review of documents, photos, videos. The seren tau ceremony is a cultural activity in West Java. In its implementation, the ceremony has a variety of cultural activities in which it has its own value and meaning. These activities can be used as educational media for elementary school students as an effort to build character.

A Hard Energy Use Limit of Artificial Superintelligence
Authors: Stiefel Klaus , S. Coggan Jay
Published: May 2023

We argue that the high energy use by present-day semiconductor computing technology will prevent the emergence of an artificial intelligence system that could reasonably be described as a “superintelligence”. This hard limit on artificial superintelligence (ASI) emerges from the energy requirements of a system that would be more intelligent but orders of magnitude less efficient in energy use than human brains. An ASI would have to supersede not only a single brain, but a large population of humans, further multiplying the energy requirement. A hypothetical ASI would likely consume orders of magnitude more energy than what is available in industrialized society. We estimate the energy use by ASI with an equation we term the ”Erasi equation”, for the Energy Requirement for Artificial SuperIntelligence. Additional efficiency consequences will emerge from the current unfocussed and scattered developmental trajectory of AI research. Taken together, these arguments suggest that the emergence of an ASI is highly unlikely in the foreseeable future based on current computer architectures, primarily due to energy constraints, with biomimicry being a possible solution.
A novel neural network-based data acquisition system targeting high-speed electrical impedance tomography systems
Authors: Tiwari Varun Kumar , Meribout Mahmoud
Published: May 2023

The paper presents a design for a high-speed data acquisition (DAQ) system for electrical impedance tomography (EIT). The proposed solution involves using a high-speed analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to digitize the analog signals corresponding to multiple pairs of electrodes within the same cycle in a time-multiplexed manner. The extracted samples are fed to an artificial neural network (ANN) to estimate the peak amplitudes of the signals for every channel, which are then used for image reconstruction. Various ANN models with customized loss functions were assessed, and the optimal model selection approach using the grid search technique is presented. Unlike other multi-frequency based techniques, the suggested approach does not require a multi-frequency current source, thus simplifying the data acquisition system by not requiring high-quality narrow-band pass-band filters for different frequencies. The proposed approach allows EIT systems to operate at a very high throughput that can exceed 2,800 frames per second for a 50 kHz excitation signal using 32 or more electrodes. Extensive experimental testing showed that peak estimation accuracy can be achieved with more than 98%, even for signals with 40 dB SNRs. The suggested approach has thus promising potential for EIT applications requiring high SNR and fast data acquisition.
ChatGPT for Visually Impaired and Blind
Authors: Kuzdeuov Askat , Nurgaliyev Shakhizat , Varol Hüseyin Atakan
Published: May 2023

The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that millions of individuals worldwide experience visual disabilities, which can have significant personal implications as more than 80% of our perception, cognition, learning, and daily activities rely on vision. As a result, people with visual impairments face challenges in education and professional settings due to inaccessible technologies. To address this issue, we introduce a speech-based assistive system that allows visually impaired and blind individuals to interact with ChatGPT through natural conversation. The system incorporates automatic speech recognition (ASR), text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis, and a messenger bot (Telegram) to create a seamless interface to ChatGPT. Through preliminary experiments, we have demonstrated the potential of this system as an assistive technology. We have made the source code publicly available at https://github.com/IS2AI/telegram-bot-chatgpt to encourage the development of assistive technologies for individuals with visual impairments.
Guiding the Honeybee Navigation System Using the Second-Harmonic Line Width of 456 nm Nd:GdVO4 Laser to Prevent CCD Phenomenon
Authors: Mohammadi Fatemeh , Bozorgmanesh Mohammad Amin
Published: May 2023

Today, one of the biological problems is electromagnetic pollution in the environment. The intensity of electromagnetic radiation is so pervasive that it is now known as a form of latent and silent pollution. The study of the biological effects of these waves on the growth and development of living insects - such as bees - are considered by many scientific communities around the world. However, the response of honey/wild bees to traps designed to selectively stimulate bee light receptors by fluorescent light indicated that selective arousal of the blue light receptor type was highly attractive. In this paper, to selectively stimulate the blue light receiver in bee species in order to guide the bee navigation system to return to its hive and prevent the colony collapse disorder (CCD) phenomenon, high-efficiency continuous laser emission by second-harmonic line width of 456 nm Nd:GdVO4 laser is proposed.
Joint beamforming and compressed sensing for uplink grant-free access
Authors: Xia Guoqing , Xiao Pei , Li Bohan , Zhang Yue , ZHOU Huiyu
Published: May 2023

 Compressed sensing (CS)-based techniques have been widely applied in the grant-free non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) to a single-antenna base station (BS). In this paper, we consider the multi-antenna reception at the BS for uplink grant-free access for the massive machine type communication (mMTC) with limited channel resources. To enhance the overloading performance of the BS, we develop a general framework for the synergistic amalgamation of the spatial division multiple access (SDMA) technique with the CS-based grant-free NOMA. We derive a closed-form statistical beamforming and a dynamic beamforming scheme for the inter-cluster interference suppression when applying SDMA. Based on this, we further develop a joint adaptive beamforming and subspace pursuit (J-ABF-SP) algorithm for the multiuser detection and data recovery, with a novel sparsity level decision method without the accurate knowledge of the noise level. To further improve the data recovery performance, we propose an interference cancellation-based J-ABF-SP scheme (J-ABF-SP-IC) by using the initial signal estimates generated from the J-ABF-SP algorithm. Extensive simulation results verify the superior user detection and signal recovery performance of our proposed algorithms in comparison with existing CS-based grant-free NOMA techniques.
A Deep Neural Network Modeling Methodology for Efficient EMC Assessment of Shielding Enclosures using MECA-Generated RCS Training Data
Authors: Choupanzadeh Rasul , Zadehgol Ata
Published: May 2023

We develop a deep neural network (DNN) modeling methodology to predict the radiated emissions of a shielding enclosure in terms of its aperture attributes including aperture shape, size, pitch, and quantity. The target structure is the inside of a three-dimensional (3D) enclosure comprised of perfect electric conductor (PEC) boundaries with dimensions of a desktop personal computer (PC) containing thermal dissipation apertures on the surface of its back panel. The DNN model is developed to compute the radar cross section (RCS) as a function of aperture attributes and to enable the efficient assessment of the PC’s electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).

To generate training data for machine learning (ML), we implement the modified equivalent current approximation (MECA) method and validate it against analytical methods and a commercial field-solver. We use MECA to compute RCS data for approximately 55,000 experiments across a wide range of aperture attributes. We examine numerous DNN models across parameters such as number of layers and nodes per layer, activation function, optimization algorithm, loss function, batch size, and epoch, to identify the optimal DNN model based on (a) accuracy, (b) computation time, and (c) memory usage. Results show excellent agreement between MECA and DNN predictions for previously unseen cases.
Bio-Inspired Simple Neural Network for Low-Light Image Restoration: A Minimalist Approach
Authors: Ye Junjie , Zhao Jilin
Published: May 2023

In this study, we explore the potential of using a straightforward neural network inspired by the retina model to efficiently restore low-light images. The retina model imitates the neurophysiological principles and dynamics of various optical neurons. Our proposed neural network model reduces the computational overhead compared to traditional signal-processing models while achieving results similar to complex deep learning models from a subjective perceptual perspective. By directly simulating retinal neuron functionalities with neural networks, we not only avoid manual parameter optimization but also lay the groundwork for constructing artificial versions of specific neurobiological organizations.
MagNet-AI: Neural Network as Datasheet for Magnetics Modeling and Material Recommendation
Authors: Chen Minjie , Li Haoran , Serrano Diego , Wang Shukai
Published: May 2023

This paper presents the MagNet-AI platform as an online platform to demonstrate the “Neural Network as Datasheet” concept for B–H loop modeling and material recommendation of power magnetics across wide operation range. Instead of directly presenting the measured characteristics of magnetic core materials as time sequences, we employ a neural network to capture the B–H loop mapping relationships of magnetic materials under different excitation waveforms at different temperatures and dc-bias. Both LSTM and Transformer based neural network models are developed, verified, and compared. The training and inference process of the neural network are fully automated to minimize the impact of human error. The neural network can be used to rapidly predict B–H loops under different operating conditions, compare materials, and recommend materials for design. Neural networks are also effective in compressing the information contained in the raw database, and enable rapid material evaluation and comparison.
