Parâmetros de erosão e geotécnicos de solos da bacia das Codornas
Authors: Viana Rodrigo , Lima Dario , Júnior Paulo , Costa Liovando , Marques Eduardo
Published: October 2022

O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar resultados de um estudo sobre a erodibilidade de solos da Bacia das Codornas, situada entre as cidades de Itabirito e Nova Lima, no Estado de Minas Gerais, Brasil. Três amostras indeformadas e deformadas foram coletadas, determinando-se os seus parâmetros geotécnicos em laboratório. Nas amostras indeformadas foram realizados ensaios Inderbitzen, no teor de umidade natural e após saturação das amostras, e ensaios de desagregação. Os resultados dos ensaios mostram que o substrato geológico é um condicionante expressivo na evolução dos processos de voçorocamento, quando expostos os horizontes de solos saproliticos.
Coeficiente de impulso em repouso em solos saprolíticos
Authors: Da Fonseca A. Viana , Almeida e Sousa Jorge
Published: October 2022

As metodologias para avaliação do K0 em solos naturais estão ainda longe de serem consideradas consagradas, com especial ênfase em solos residuais, sobre os quais há ainda uma gritante falta de experiência documentada. Este artigo dá um perspectiva sobre a experiência actual sobre este assunto, dando relevo aos resultados obtidos cm alguns campos experimentais na zona metropolitana do Porto. A importância da definição dos valores deste parâmetro nos resultados obtidos a partir do uso de técnicas de cálculo numérico que recorrem a modelos constitutivos mais ou menos complexos é aqui ilustrada com retroanálises de um caso de obra, correspondente à abertura de um túnel superficial num maciço granítico meteorizado.
Comportamento de uma zona de deslizamento num aterro de resíduos de Lisboa após a implementação de medidas de estabilização
Authors: Santayana Fernando
Published: October 2022

O trabalho descreve as medidas de estabilização e o plano de monitorização adoptado para a expansão Este do Aterro de Resíduos de Beirolas, em Lisboa. Em Junho de 1995 esta expansão viu-se afectada, durante a construção, por um deslizamento de dimensões significativas, como consequência de uma avaliação incorrecta, no projecto, do grau de consolidação e da resistência dos solos lodosos do terreno de fundação. As medidas de correcção após o deslizamento incluíram um reperfilamento da superfície na zona da expansão Este e um tratamento do terreno mediante a instalação de geodrenos verticais e a colocação de uma sobrecarga. Os resultados da instrumentação e dos ensaios in situ foram utilizados para analisar o comportamento da zona tratada após a implementação destas medidas.  O plano de monitorização adoptado serviu de sistema de alerta e permitiu confirmar a eficácia do tratamento.

São propostas relações semi-empíricas que definem os limites inferior e superior do módulo de distorção inicial em função do índice de vazios e da tensão efectiva média.
Análise numérica de canal de irrigação em solo colapsível utilizando um modelo de estados críticos
Authors: Almeida Márcio , Filho Francisco
Published: October 2022

Neste artigo é apresentado um modelo de estados críticos para solos não saturados, mostrando a implementação em um programa de elementos finitos e aplicações.  Comparado com o modelo Cam clay para solos saturados, este modelo, proposto inicialmente por Wheeler e Sivakumar (1995) e modificado por Silva Filho (1998), utiliza uma variável de estado de tensões adicional para representar o efeito da sucção nos solos não saturados, através da técnica de deformação inicial. Neste modelo os parâmetros podem ser obtidos a partir de experimentos simples, como é o caso do ensaio duplo de adensamento. E, visando enfatizar a importância da utilização de um procedimento simples no modelo elasto-plástico em solos não saturados, são apresentadas três análises: avaliação do procedimento de carregamento e saturação, verificação dos resultados dos ensaios de Lawton et a. (1989 e 1991) e um novo estudo do colapso do Canal de Bom Jesus da Lapa no estado da Bahia, Brasil.
Modelação geomecânica e propostas de estabilização da encosta do Morro do Curral - Ouro Preto/ Brasil
Authors: Fernandes Gilberto , Sobreira Frederico , Gomes Romero
Published: October 2022

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo principal a determinação dos parâmetros geomecânicos de um maciço rochoso para viabilizar o projeto conceituai e as respectivas soluções técnicas de estabilização da chamada encosta do Morro do Curral, feição situada adjacente ao Centro de Artes e Convenções de Ouro Preto, na área urbana da cidade de Ouro Preto/ Brasil. Neste sentido, foram realizados levantamentos de campo para caracterização geológico-geotécnica do maciço e uma série de ensaios geotécnicos de laboratório sobre os materiais presentes. Estes estudos compreenderam ensaios de caracterização e de resistência das rochas, destacando-se os ensaios puntiforme e de cisalhamento direto. O conhecimento das características intrínsecas do maciço rochoso, aliadas aos resultados dos ensaios de laboratório, permitiram a aplicação das classificações para a formulação do modelo geomecânico do maciço. Com base em correlações envolvendo estes índices geomecânicos, foram estabelecidos os parâmetros de resistência e de deformabilidade do maciço rochoso, que nortearam os procedimentos para a análise da estabilidade da encosta e os princípios gerais do projeto global de sua estabilização.
Computational investigation of erosion wear in the eco-friendly disposal of the fly ash through 90° horizontal bend of different radius ratios
Authors: Baghel Yatish Kumar , Patel Vivek Kumar
Published: October 2022

In the present study, slurry erosion wear was evaluated in 90° horizontal pipe bends of various radius ratios (R/r = 2–10) through a commercial CFD code ANSYS FLUENT. For the suspension of fly ash-water, Euler–Lagrange and two way-coupling methods were employed to predict the slurry erosion wear. The flow through the horizontal bend pipe was simulated using a Standard k–ε turbulence modelling. The computational results were validated with the experimental result of the available literature. Fly ash was taken as the dispersed phase of the solid-liquid combination however water was used as the liquid phase. The fly ash particles size was taken as 150 µm. Various affecting factors, such as velocity (4–10 m/s) and solid concentration (2.5 and 7.5% by volume) of the fly ash, were also studied in this investigation. The erosion rate was maximum in the case of R/r = 4 and minimum for R/r = 10 at all velocities and concentrations. It was also found that the erosion rate increases with the increase in solid concentration and velocity.
Organosolv delignification of birch wood (Betula pendula): DMSO/water pulping optimization
Authors: Ivahnov Artem , Sypalova Yuliya , Pokryshkin Sergey , Kozhevnikov Aleksandr
Published: October 2022

Improving the quality of cellulose semi-finished products for subsequent chemical processing in combination with the “green” concept is an important technical challenge. The article investigated a number of organic solvents as a delignifying agent. It has been shown that DMSO usage is the most efficient organosolv way to obtain cellulose from birch wood (B. pendula). The influence of the concentration of the organic solvent in the cooking liquid, the concentration of the acid catalyst, the duration and temperature of the process has been studied. The conditions for maximum process desirability at which the highest yield of cellulosic semi-finished product (CSP) and degree of delignification were as follows: 2 h treatment time at 156 °C, DMSO/water 75–95% solvent system with solid to liquid ratio of 1:10. At a concentration of DMSO in the cooking liquor of 85–90%, the degree of wood delignification was about 95%. The mechanical properties of the experimental DMSO pulp were similar to those of kraft pulp. DMSO lignin was characterized by Pyr-GC/MS. More than 65% of monomer fragments of phenolic compounds were S-unit derivatives. The results show that organosolv delignification with DMSO/Water can be proposed as an eco-friendly alternative process to the kraft pulping.

Authors: Cai Zhengsen , Fan Jianwei , Ma Tao , Deng Xinghe , Zhu Yajing
Published: October 2022

In this paper, exposed-aggregate concrete (EAC) samples, including EAC1 samples with a small aggregate size and EAC2 samples with a large aggregate size, were prepared. The effects of ambient temperature on the waiting time for the spraying of the aggregate-exposing agent (AEG) and the waiting time for the brushing of surface mortar were studied. Furthermore, the optimate spraying dosage of the AEG was determined, and a comparison was undertaken between the antiwearing properties of EAC1, EAC2, and grooved concrete samples. The correlation between the proposed aggregate-exposing depth (AED) indicator and the mean texture depth (MTD) indicator was examined in this study. Stone Mastic Asphalt-13 (SMA-13), EAC1, EAC2, and grooved concrete pavements were paved in a long tunnel, and their macrotexture, skid resistance, noise reduction, and antiglaring performance were compared. As per the results, a good, linear correlation was established between the AED and MTD indicators. With the increase in ambient temperature, the disappearance time of water film on the surface of cement concrete continues to shorten. The earliest, optimum, and latest waiting times for the brushing of EAC are significantly advanced, and the brushing window period continues to shorten. The recommended spraying dosage of 6 % AEG solution is 250–300 g/m2. Under the same spraying dosage of AEG solution, increasing the aggregate size improves the macrotexture of the EAC surface. Note that the skid resistance performance of EAC is not necessarily proportional to its macrotexture. Significantly large aggregate size is disadvantageous to the skid resistance performance of the pavement. The anti-attenuation performance of macrotexture, skid resistance performance, noise reduction performance, and antiglaring performance of EAC pavements are similar to that of the Stone Mastic Asphalt-13 (SMA-13) pavement and significantly better than those of grooved pavement. Moreover, the aforementioned performances of EAC1 pavement with small particle size are found to be better.
Age-Related Learning and Working Memory Impairment in the Common Marmoset
Authors: Glavis-Bloom Courtney , Vanderlip Casey R. , Reynolds John H.
Published: October 2022

Aging is the greatest risk factor for the development of neurodegenerative diseases, yet we still do not understand how the aging process leads to pathologic vulnerability. The research community has relied heavily on mouse models, but the considerable anatomic, physiological, and cognitive differences between mice and humans limit their translational relevance. Ultimately, these barriers necessitate the development of novel aging models. As a nonhuman primate (NHP), the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) shares many features in common with humans and yet has a significantly shorter lifespan (10 years) than other primates, making it ideally suited to longitudinal studies of aging. Our objective was to evaluate the marmoset as a model of age-related cognitive impairment. To do this, we used the Delayed Recognition Span Task (DRST) to characterize age-related changes in working memory capacity in a cohort of sixteen marmosets, of both sexes, varying in age from young adult to geriatric. These monkeys performed thousands of trials over periods of time ranging up to 50% of their adult lifespan. To our knowledge, this represents the most thorough cognitive profiling of any marmoset aging study conducted to date. By analyzing individual learning curves, we found that aged animals exhibited delayed onset of learning, slowed learning rate after onset, and decreased asymptotic working memory performance. These findings are not accounted for by age-related impairments in motor speed and motivation. This work firmly establishes the marmoset as a model of age-related cognitive impairment.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTUnderstanding the normal aging process is fundamental to identifying therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases for which aging is the biggest risk factor. Historically, the aging field has relied on animal models that differ markedly from humans, constraining translatability. Here, we firmly establish a short-lived nonhuman primate (NHP), the common marmoset, as a key model of age-related cognitive impairment. We demonstrate, through continuous testing over a substantial portion of the adult marmoset lifespan, that aging is associated with both impaired learning and working memory capacity, unaccounted for by age-related changes in motor speed and motivation. Characterizing individual cognitive aging trajectories reveals inherent heterogeneity, which could lead to earlier identification of the onset of impairment, and extended timelines during which therapeutics are effective.

Published: October 2022

Objective: to understand the experience of family members in the care of preterm newborns discharged from the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Methods: qualitative study, developed with 16 family members of preterm newborns discharged from a neonatal unit through semi-structured interviews. Data were submitted to thematic content analysis. Results: three categories were listed: Family members' rearrangements in the care of the preterm newborn at home; recognizing the specific care needs of the preterm child; and care in the face of complications and sequelae resulting from prematurity. Conclusion: family members recognize that the preterm newborn requires differentiated care and, therefore, experience a reorganization of their daily lives to promote the care of the child after discharge from the neonatal unit. Contributions to practice: this study points out the relevance of the nurse's work with families in neonatal units by strengthening family skills so that they can undertake care, so that it can be offered safely and meet the health demands that arise on a daily basis at home, in addition to guiding them about the need for monitoring the child after discharge.

Objective: to identify the association between the perception of body image and the adoption of preventive measures for sexually transmitted infections by female adolescents. Methods: descriptive research, with a sequential quantitative-qualitative mixed method, in three full-time schools located in socially vulnerable neighborhoods. Results: 147 female adolescents participated, with a mean age of 14. Body image dissatisfaction by the Silhouettes Scale and the Adolescent Dissatisfaction Rating Scale predominated. There was a lack of knowledge about the female condom and the correct handling of the male condom to prevent sexually transmitted infections. Conclusion: there was no significant association among the variables: body image perception, knowledge of preventive measures, and sexual behavior; however, it was evidenced a tendency of the adolescents dissatisfied with their body image perception to expose themselves to sexual conduct with more than one partner at the same time. Furthermore, the adolescents' body image dissatisfaction influenced their knowledge about the female condom, HIV, and family. Contributions to practice: the actions of health promotion and education for adolescent girls should consider factors that raise the perception of positive body image, from strategies that reinforce self-esteem and safe sexual conduct.

Published: October 2022

Aim. The aim of the study was to compare the dentinal microcrack formation on human mandibular molars using 4 different minimally invasive file systems at 3, 6 and 9 mm from apex using a stereomicroscope.

Method. 125 mesial roots of mandibular molars were randomly divided into 5 groups and instrumented (n=25). Group 1: Control Group (CG), Group 2: Self Adjusting File (SAF), Group 3: XP-Endoshaper (XP), Group 4: TRUShape (TS), Group 5: V Taper 2H (VT). After instrumentation was completed, the roots were sectioned at 3 mm, 6 mm, and 9 mm from apex using a slow-speed circular saw. Digital images were captured using a 24x stereomicroscope by using a digital camera. Two operators independently checked each specimen for the presence of dentinal defects. Statistical comparison between the file systems was done using Chi-square (p<0.05).

Result. There was no statistically significant difference in the frequency of microcracks between the groups of file systems (X2=4.509, p>0.05). VT file system exhibited higher microcracks (25%) but was not statistically significantly higher than XP (12%), TRUShape (12%), and SAF (4%) endodontic file systems.

Conclusion. Within the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that all the file systems used in our research are minimally invasive files and produced few dentinal microcracks. VT files produced maximum while SAF produced the least number of micro-cracks.
Soil, climate, and management practices associated with the prevalence of clubroot in Colombia
Authors: Botero Ramirez Andrea , Padilla-­Huertas Fabián Leonardo , García Celsa
Published: October 2022

Clubroot disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae is a major constraint for cruciferous crops in Colombia; however, information regarding its spread and the relationship between environmental and crop management practices with its occurrence in the country is scarce. This research established clubroot prevalence in the main cruciferous productive areas in Colombia and the relation of its occurrence with crop management practices, soil, and climatic characteristics. In total, 127 fields were visited along eight departments. Clubroot infestation was determined either by direct inspection of roots of host plants for clubroot symptoms or by report of previous observation of the disease symptoms by the farmers. Soil samples were collected for physical and chemical analysis, climatic information was obtained, and farmers were surveyed on the management practices of the production systems. The survey confirmed the presence of the disease in 53.6% of the visited fields. The only department where the disease symptoms were not observed nor reported was Nariño. A negative correlation was found between the disease occurrence and the content of aluminum in the soil, the number of days with rain per year, and the cultivation of clubroot-resistant hybrids. Moreover, a positive correlation was observed with the inclusion of cruciferous crops in the rotation scheme, the effective cation exchange capacity of the soil, soil pH, and the content of phosphorus, calcium, boron, and copper in the soil.
Fundamentalismo misionero en la Amazonia indígena: trayectorias zo’é y suruwaha ante el giro ultraconservador brasileño
Authors: Aparicio Miguel , Ribeiro Fabio
Published: October 2022

A partir de una etnografía de las relaciones de los zo'é y los suruwaha, pueblos de “reciente contacto” de la Amazonia brasileña, con las agencias misioneras que intervinieron en sus territorios, este artículo confronta los puntos de vista indígenas con los discursos evangélicos. Para ese propósito, se da una atención especial a la perspectiva zo’é sobre los misioneros y, de forma inversa, a continuación, un énfasis a la perspectiva misionera sobre los suruwaha. El análisis conjuga informaciones oriundas del trabajo de campo etnográfico de los autores con un estudio de los presupuestos y fundamentos doctrinales de la actuación misionera. Al investigar las trayectorias de figuras destacadas de las dos instituciones evangélicas protagonistas (Novas Tribos, JOCUM), se pone de manifiesto la conexión estrecha de estas agencias con el movimiento de extrema derecha del actual gobierno brasileño. Desde las tierras indígenas hasta los despachos gubernamentales, la actuación misionera surge, junto a las Fuerzas Armadas y al agribusiness, como uno de los ejes del bolsonarismo y de su política de retroceso de los derechos indígenas.
Constelación espacial de conceptos para Trabajo Social: ambiente, lugar, territorio y paisaje
Authors: Saravia Cortés Felipe Andrés , Panez Pinto Alexander Esteban
Published: October 2022

Se desarrolla una propuesta teórica que entiende el espacio como categoría central de una constelación espacial de conceptos, potencialmente útil para el Trabajo Social, que considera cuatro aspectos: ambiente, lugar, territorio y paisaje. Se revisa someramente la utilización de cada uno en el caso del Trabajo Social y se encuentran patrones diferenciados. El concepto lugar es empleado principalmente en el contexto anglófono, mientras territorio en el de América Latina. Ambiente es usado en ambos entornos, pero con sentidos diversos. Paisaje casi no es utilizado, aunque cuenta con un alto potencial explicativo e integrador. Se concluye con desafíos que vinculan la dimensión teórica y política.
A review on ‘Release From Position’ in State Public Officials Act
Authors:   The Institute of Legal Studies, Kyunghee University, Kim Seong-Su
Published: October 2022

The “Release from Position” that is familiar to the general public through media reports is an administrative disposition based on the State Public Officials Act. It is a temporary disposition that maintains the status of public officials but releases their duties and responsibilities, but it tends to be understood as a measure to immediately impose disadvantages on public officials who have been accused of misconduct before confirming criminal punishment or disciplinary disposition. This article examines the transition process to date along with the legislative purpose of the “Release from Position”, and introduces similar legislative examples at home and abroad. In addition, opinions on improvement of the system are expressed while reviewing major issues related to the “Release from Position” (i) According to the law, the disposition-taking authority shall issue an explanatory note upon cancelling position, and if not, the disposition is invalid. (ii) A public official who is released from position should be given the right to apply for reinstatement based on a change in circumstances.
Cloud Computing Service: Focus on Search and Seizure in Team Collaboration Platform Provider
Authors:   The Institute of Legal Studies, Kyunghee University, IM Jong-Wook
Published: October 2022

The COVID-19 crisis has facilitated teleworking and it has triggered a surge of cloud-based team collaborative platforms supporting teleworking. The team collaborative platforms save every kind of working data from users such as meeting contents, in-company shared information and business commands to cloud computing server.
Even though there has been lots of prior studies on the search and seize the data saved in the cloud computing service, cloud-based team collaborative platforms haven’t been focused enough. The team collaborative platforms apply a high level of encryption technology to store customer’s data so that occasionally it cannot be reached without using the platform specific technology. That sort of data is not only saved in the cloud storage, but also be realized based on the cloud computing service.
Therefore, this paper tried to develop the prior studies by presenting possible issues and opinions on the process of search and seize for the team collaborative platforms considering their technical characteristics.

Published: October 2022

In dieser Bachelorarbeit wurde ein Entwicklerboard – die „DevBox“ – als Erweiterung des Tischroboters „ROS-E“ konzipiert, um die Erprobung und Entwicklung neuer Hardware des Roboters zu vereinfachen und zu beschleunigen. Zudem soll die DevBox den Zugang zu ROS-E für Neueinsteiger und für die Lehre erleichtern. Es wurden diverse Anforderungen an die DevBox bezüglich der Hardware und Software auf Grundlage von Anwendungsfällen der Entwickler von ROS-E aufgestellt. Das resultierende Konzept umfasst ein Modell für den Bau einer DevBox, welches auch eigens entwickelte Leiterplatten für eine bessere Ergonomie bei der Entwicklung enthält. Die konzipierte Software der DevBox beschreibt Lösungen für die Anbindung diverser Hardwareschnittstellen wie GPIO, I2C und SPI und von Smart Home Geräten via EnOcean, ZigBee und Z-Wave über die DevBox und wie diese mit dem Roboter ROS-E verwendet werden können. Anhand eines ersten Hardwareprototypen der DevBox konnten grundlegende Funktionen der Software implementiert und erfolgreich getestet werden. In weiteren Schritten soll die DevBox gebaut und für die Weiterentwicklung von ROS-E eingesetzt und finalisiert werden.
A Study on the Outcomes by and Constraints of the Change in International Commercial Terms
Authors:   Korea Association for International Commerce and Information, Kim Chang-Bong , Choi Yeon-Woo , Jeong Kyeong-Wook
Published: October 2022

Recently, international commerce is expanding and logistics costs are rising rapidly. In this regard, the Korea International Trade Association recommends changing the international commercial terms under incoterms as a way to reduce logistics costs for import/export companies. This study tried to examine the constraint factors that appear in the process of changing international commercial terms.
In order to achieve the research purpose, this study composed questionnaire items by conducting previous studies, expert interviews, and pilot studies. The questionnaire was distributed to random sample companies based on the list of member companies such as the Korea International Trade Association, the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency, and the Korea Small and Medium Business Association. The survey period was from March 2, 2022 to June 30, 2022. About 1,200 copies of the total questionnaire were distributed and 244 copies were used for empirical analysis, and PLS-SEM was performed to derive the results.
The results of this study are as follows. First, It was found that the internal rigidity and lack of expertise in determining international commercial terms in trade companies had a negative impact on the change of international commercial terms. Second, It was found that the change of international commercial terms in import/export companies improves trade performance.
A Study on the International Competitiveness Analysis of the Korean Medical Device Industry: Focusing on Comparison with the US, China, Japan, and EU
Authors:   Korea Association for International Commerce and Information, La Kong-Woo
Published: October 2022

In this study, the competitiveness of medical devices with the US, China, Japan, and EU was analyzed using RCA, SRCA, TSI, and ESI.
As a result of the analysis, first, in RCA and SRCA analysis, it was found that only two items of HS 8419 and HS 9022 were competitive among Korean medical device items. The US and EU were found to be competitive in almost all items. Second, looking at the TSI index, it can be seen that both Korea and the United States are closer to import-specific rather than export-specific. In China and the EU, the TSI index was greater than 0 for most medical device items from 2016 to 2020.
Third, looking at Korea's ESI, the degree of export competition gradually increased from 2016 to 2020. It can be seen that the competition in medical device items is intensifying.
The competitiveness of Korea's medical device industry was found to be lower than that of major countries. Accordingly, the Korean medical device industry needs efforts to strengthen its competitiveness.
Game-Tree Search over High-Level Game States in RTS Games
Authors: Uriarte Alberto , Ontañón Santiago
Published: October 2022

From an AI point of view, Real-Time Strategy (RTS) games are hard because they have enormous state spaces, they are real-time and partially observable. In this paper, we present an approach to deploy game-tree search in RTS games by using game state abstraction. We propose a high-level abstract representation of the game state, that significantly reduces the branching factor when used for game-tree search algorithms. Using this high-level representation, we evaluate versions of alpha-beta search and of Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS). We present experiments in the context of StarCraft showing promising results in dealing with the large branching factors present in RTS games.
Belief-Driven Pathfinding through Personalized Map Abstraction
Authors: Aversa Davide , Vassos Stavros
Published: October 2022

We investigate the case of belief-driven pathfinding (BDP) according to which characters hold a personalized account of a dynamic changing game-world. BDP is concerned with maintaining and revising a set of beliefs that persists over time as a character navigates to subsequent target destinations. This allows for a differentiation among characters with different observations in the game and can provide better believability. We present BGCA*, a practical BDP approach that is based on (i) decomposing the map into regions, (ii) using personalized beliefs per character about the connectivity of regions, and (iii) employing a regular pathfinding component as a service. We evaluate BGCA* in terms of computational effort and precision wrt a regular solver over several benchmark maps. Our results motivate a simple belief revision strategy that induces small overhead and amortizes effort spent toward precision.
Alone We Can Do So Little, Together We Can Do So Much: A Combinatorial Approach for Generating Game Content
Authors: Shaker Noor , Abou-Zleikha Mohamed
Published: October 2022

In this paper we present a procedural content generator using Non-negative Matrix Factorisation (NMF). We use representative levels from five dissimilar content generators to train NMF models that learn patterns about the various components of the game. The constructed models are then used to automatically generate content that resembles the training data as well as to generate novel content through exploring new combinations of patterns. We describe the methodology followed and we show that the generator proposed has a more powerful capability than each of generator taken individually. The generator's output is compared to the other generators using a number of expressivity metrics. The results show that the proposed generator is able to resemble each individual generator as well as demonstrating ability to cover a wider and more novel content space.
Evaluating Play Trace (Dis)similarity Metrics
Authors: Osborn Joseph , Samuel Ben , McCoy Joshua , Mateas Michael
Published: October 2022

Play trace dissimilarity metrics compare two plays of a game and describe how different they are from each other. But how can we evaluate these metrics? Are some more accurate than others for a particular game, or in general? If so, why? Is the appropriate metric for a given game determined by certain characteristics of the game's design? This work provides an experimental methodology for validating play trace dissimilarity metrics for conformance to game designers' perception of play trace difference. We apply this method to a game-independent metric called Gamalyzer and compare it against three baselines which are representative of commonly used techniques in game analytics. We find that Gamalyzer---with an appropriate input encoding---is more accurate than the baseline metrics for the specific game under consideration, but simpler metrics based on event counting perform nearly as well for this game.
The General Mediation Engine
Authors: Robertson Justus , Young R.
Published: October 2022

The General Mediation Engine is an architecture for producing game experiences with world mechanics drawn from a planning domain and problem. The system models possible player actions, state updates, and system responses in a graph representation derived from planner input. Paired with an interface that displays state and action information to the player, GME structures gameplay as an on-line expansion of its graph representation.
Toward Generating 3D Games with the Help of Commonsense Knowledge and the Crowd
Authors: Hodhod Rania , Huet Marc , Riedl Mark
Published: October 2022

Procedural game generation is the automatic creation of all aspects of a playable computer game. Procedural game generation systems require specialized knowledge, virtual worlds, and art assets. In this paper, we show how 3D graphical scenes for interactive fictions can be automatically generated with only knowledge that is readily available in existing knowledge bases or can be acquired via crowdsourcing. The key to 3D scene generation is commonly accepted spatial relationships between different types of objects in different types of scenes. We use a crowdsourcing game to automatically and rapidly acquire spatial relations. The spatial relations are used by an intelligent scene generation system that selects and configures 3D assets within a virtual geometric space.
Towards Computational Co-Creation in Modding Communities
Authors: Grace Kazjon , Maher Mary
Published: October 2022

Large online repositories of player-generated game content are a popular component of modern interactive digital entertainment. These add-ons are typically referred to as "mods", and the communities of co-creators that coalesce around them "modding communities". We propose a method to augment these communities with computational agents that encourage creative submissions, which we define as those that are both unexpected and valuable. We propose to combine player experience modelling, computational creativity evaluation and mixed-initiative co-creation to drive modding communities towards more fun and diverse gaming experiences.

Adapting Automatic Speech Recognition for Foreign Language Learners in a Serious Game
Authors: Winebarger Joshua
Published: October 2022

Eveil3d is a project for development of an immersive, virtual "serious game" for computer assisted foreign language learning, with which users interact verbally by means of an automatic speech recogniser. The speech of the target user group, namely adolescent low-proficiency non-native speakers, differs significantly from native adult speakers on which ASR systems are typically trained and thus on which they perform the best. As only a very small corpus of near-domain speech and text is available, the aforementioned difference becomes a development challenge. We deal with this challenge by adapting existing systems on the small data set. We adapt our language models using text selection to augment the in-domain data with similar data from out-of-domain sources. We adapt our acoustic models with MAP adaptation. Through these steps we achieve significant reductions in error.

A Genetically Generated Drone A/V Composition Using Video Analysis as a ‘Disturbance Factor’ to the Fitness Function
Authors: McGuire Tristan , Torre Giuseppe
Published: October 2022

This paper discusses the development of an audio-visual composition based on genetic algorithms strategies. The genetic algorithm’s fitness function dynamically adjusts the optimisation targets linked to the mechanisms responsible for the generating of drone soundscapes. The fitness function continuously changes based on the results of an analysis of the visual elements of the artwork thus acting as disturbance factor. In doing so, the audio material never achieves full optimisation and constantly shapes itself. The paper offers both a technical and aesthetic analysis of the development of the composition.
