Connecting Users with Similar Interests across Multiple Web Services
Authors: Kwak Haewoon , Shin Hwa-Yong , Yoon Jong-Il , Moon Sue 
Published: November 2022

Most online social networking services provide a feature for users to build groups. The web service has both user profiles describing user interests and behavior data such as browsing contents. It can assist users to join groups by recommending relevant groups. In this paper, we have proposed a novel method to connect users across multiple services based on user-labeled tags. Tags represent interests of a user and have advantages in terms of the privacy, up-to-dateness, and service coverage. We have collected tags from six popular web services. We have analyzed tag usage patterns and observed that the popularity of tags is highly skewed and dependent on the web services. We have also found that frequently used tags of a single user change over time. Through user study, we show that the vector space model combined with intra-personomy normalization is the promising to find other users with similar interests.
An Examination of Language Use in Online Dating Profiles
Authors: Nagarajan Meenakshi , Hearst Marti 
Published: November 2022

This paper contributes to the study of self-presentation in online dating systems by performing a factor analysis on the text portions of online profiles. Findings include a similarity in the overall factor structures between male and female profiles, including use of tentative words by men. Contrasts between sexes were also found in a cluster analysis of the profiles using their factor scores. Finally, we also found similarities in frequent words used by the gender groups.
Star Quality: Aggregating Reviews to Rank Products and Merchants
Authors: McGlohon Mary , Glance Natalie , Reiter Zach 
Published: November 2022

Given a set of reviews of products or merchants from a wide range of authors and several reviews websites, how can we measure the true quality of the product or merchant? How do we remove the bias of individual authors or sources? How do we compare reviews obtained from different websites, where ratings may be on different scales (1-5 stars, A/B/C, etc.)? How do we filter out unreliable reviews to use only the ones with ``star quality''? Taking into account these considerations, we analyze data sets from a variety of different reviews sites (the first paper, to our knowledge, to do this). These data sets include 8 million product reviews and 1.5 million merchant reviews. We explore statistic- and heuristic- based models for estimating the true quality of a product or merchant, and compare the performance of these estimators on the task of ranking pairs of objects. We also apply the same models to the task of using Netflix ratings data to rank pairs of movies, and discover that the performance of the different models is surprisingly similar on this data set.
The Value of Completing Crowdfunding Projects
Authors: Wash Rick 
Published: November 2022

Crowdfunding systems are social media websites that allow people to donate small amounts of money that add up to fund valuable larger projects. These websites are structured around projects: finite campaigns with well-defined goals, end dates, and completion criteria. We use a dataset from an existing crowdfunding website --- the school charity Donors Choose --- to understand the value of completing projects. We find that completing a project is an important act that leads to larger donations (over twice as large), greater likelihood of returning to donate again, and few projects that expire close but not complete. A conservative estimate suggests that this completion bias led to over $15 million in increased donations to Donors Choose, representing approximately 16\% of the total donations for the period under study. This bias suggests that structuring many types of collaborative work as a series of projects might increase contribution significantly.
Adaptive K-Parallel Best-First Search: A Simple but Efficient Algorithm for Multi-Core Domain-Independent Planning
Authors: Vidal Vincent , Bordeaux Lucas , Hamadi Youssef 
Published: November 2022

Motivated by the recent hardware evolution towards multi-core machines, we investigate parallel planning techniques in a shared-memory environment. We consider, more specifically, parallel versions of a best-first search algorithm that run K threads, each expanding the next best node from the open list. We show that the proposed technique has a number of advantages. First, it is (reasonably) simple: we show how the algorithm can be obtained from a sequential version mostly by adding parallel annotations. Second, we conduct an extensive empirical study that shows that this approach is quite effective. It is also dynamic in the sense that the number of nodes expanded in parallel is adapted during the search. Overall we show that the approach is promising for parallel domain-independent, suboptimal planning.
Directed Plateau Search for MAX-k-SAT
Authors: Sutton Andrew , Howe Adele , Whitley L. 
Published: November 2022

Local search algorithms for MAX-k-SAT must often explore large regions of mutually connected equal moves, or plateaus, typically by taking random walks through the region. In this paper, we develop a surrogate plateau "gradient" function using a Walsh transform of the objective function. This function gives the mean value of the objective function over localized volumes of the search space. This information can be used to direct search through plateaus more quickly. The focus of this paper is on demonstrating that formal analysis of search space structure can direct existing algorithms in a more principled manner than random walks. We show that embedding the gradient computation into a hill-climbing local search for MAX-k-SAT improves its convergence profile.

AbstractThe RILEM technical committee 282-CCL: Calcined Clays as Supplementary Cementitious Materials, investigates all the aspects related to calcined clays, from clay exploration and characterization to calcination process, hydration reactions and concrete properties. This white paper focuses on the hydration mechanisms of calcined clay-blended Portland cements, covering both 1:1 and 2:1 calcined clays. The pozzolanic reaction of calcined clay is detailed, and the main reaction products are described. The differences observed depending on the clay type are also discussed, as well as the potential influence of the secondary phases present in calcined clay. The factors controlling and limiting the reaction of calcined clay are investigated, evidencing the role of porosity saturation and refinement of the microstructure. The complete characterisation of the hydration of calcined clay cements is made possible by the determination of the reaction degree of calcined clay. Several methods are compared to estimate the extent of calcined clay reaction. The influence of clinker and limestone mineralogy are also discussed. Finally, guidelines for optimising the mixture design of calcined clay blended cements are provided, with special attention to sulphate adjustment and clinker factor.

Published: November 2022

O presente artigo apresenta o relato de experiência do projeto M.E².L., desenvolvido nas aulas de Iniciação Científica da Escola [ocultado para avaliação] entre os anos de 2019 e 2020. O tema central do projeto é o desenvolvimento de uma estratégia de divulgação científica dentro do ambiente escolar com o foco na conscientização sobre o crescente consumo de energia elétrica. Para isso, foi construído um medidor de energia elétrica didático e lúdico baseado na plataforma Arduino, que foi utilizado junto com uma ação em turmas da escola. Para medir o potencial de aprendizado dos alunos depois das intervenções, a ferramenta Kahoot foi utilizada, mantendo uma estética lúdica na ação. Foram atendidas três turmas: uma do quarto, uma do sétimo e uma do nono do ano. Na turma do 4º ano, com 18 alunos, o índice de acerto subiu de 35,25% para 88,89%. Na turma de 7º ano, com 24 alunos, esse índice foi 49,03% para 77,27% e, por fim, a turma de 9º ano, com 18 alunos, passou de 62,22% para 73,23%. Acreditamos que a interação entre alunos de diferentes séries em uma atividade educacional lúdica pode ser uma alternativa viável e produtiva para aumentar a motivação no processo ensino-aprendizagem.
Community-Led Infrastructures for Open Access Books: A Sustainable Model and Platform
Authors: Fathallah Judith , Eve Martin , Grady Tom 
Published: November 2022

This paper introduces two major outputs of the Community-led Open Publication Infrastructures for Monographs project, the Open Book Collective (OBC) and platform and the Opening the Future publishing model. The OBC, a charitable entity, will host an infrastructure and revenue management platform for the support, access, distribution, and promotion of open access (OA) books beyond models relying on book processing models. I then discuss a revenue model for publishers who wish to flip to an OA model without book processing charges. This ‘Opening the Future’ model has already been successfully implemented by two publishers, the Central European University Press and Liverpool University Press.
This paper relates to the conference theme of sustaining positive change. The international move towards OA book publishing must be approached through models that render OA books equitable and accessible to the widest variety of international readers and authors. This necessitates thinking beyond book processing charges and the potential monopolisation of the OA landscape by major publishers, supporting a diversity of approaches in a networked model we call ‘scaling small.’
Aporetic Nietzsche and the Klossowski’s proposal
Authors: Choińska Bogna 
Published: November 2022

Currently, when the need to overcome logocentric metaphysics has become necessity in the many philosophical trends, the role of the German philosopher seems particularly important. The Friedrich Nietzsche’s project is full of contradictions; in addition to statements denouncing the cultural heritage of the West, it has also positive theses, which cannot be agreed with the work of a “suspicious investigator”. These are: the affirmation of the world postulates and the ​​concept of new values, in relation to the phenomenon of life. In the article contradictions of concepts “will to power” and “superman” are showed, next I propose the different reading of Nietzsche’s work with reference to Pierre Kossowski’s thought. Therefore the main purposes of my text is to show aporias of Nietzsche’s ideas and to outline its post-structuralist interpretation made by Klossowski.
Comparisons between Resampling Techniques in Linear Regression: A Simulation Study
Authors: Fitrianto Anwar , Linganathan Punitha 
Published: November 2022

The classic methods used in estimating the parameters in linear regression need to fulfill some assumptions. If the assumptions are not fulfilled, the conclusion is questionable. Resampling is one of the ways to avoid such problems. The study aims to compare resampling techniques in linear regression. The original data used in the study is clean, without any influential observations, outliers and leverage points. The ordinary least square method was used as the primary method to estimate the parameters and then compared with resampling techniques. The variance, p-value, bias, and standard error are used as a scale to estimate the best method among random bootstrap, residual bootstrap and delete-one Jackknife. After all the analysis took place, it was found that random bootstrap did not perform well while residual and delete-one Jackknife works quite well. Random bootstrap, residual bootstrap, and Jackknife estimate better than ordinary least square. Is was found that residual bootstrap works well in estimating the parameter in the small sample. At the same time, it is suggested to use Jackknife when the sample size is big because Jackknife is more accessible to apply than residual bootstrap and Jackknife works well when the sample size is big.

Authors: Amalia Nanda Kurnia , Harianto Susilo , Muhalla Hafna Ilmy 
Published: November 2022

Introduction: Stroke can cause mild to severe disability, which is the main trigger for anxiety and other effects of stroke. The purpose of this study was to describe some things of the anxiety of stroke patients at RSUD Ibnu Sina Gresik. Methods: This study used a descriptive research design. The population were stroke patients at RSUD Ibnu Sina Gresik in March 2022. The sample in this study was 78 respondents using the purposive sampling technique. The instrument used is a HARS scale questionnaire, analyzed by descriptive method and presented using a distributive table. Results: As many as 87.2% of respondents experienced anxiety. Most of the respondents had a mild level of anxiety (51.3%). It happened because most respondents were outpatients who had entered the recovery period. The most common cause of anxiety among respondents was illness (80.8%) and decreased work productivity (29.5%). The most efforts made by respondents to reduce anxiety were by worshipping and praying (64.1%) and telling stories to trusted people (62.8%). Nurses have an essential role in reducing the anxiety of stroke patients. Conclusions: Most stroke patients at RSUD Ibnu Sina Gresik experienced mild anxiety caused by illness and decreased work productivity. Most efforts are made to reduce anxiety, namely by worshipping and praying and telling stories to trusted people.

Published: November 2022

Abstract
Background and Purpose
Serum glycosylated Wisteria floribunda agglutinin-positive Mac-2 binding protein (WFA+-M2BP) is a marker of liver fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, we aimed to evaluate the diagnostic ability of WFA+-M2BP for occult HCC, which current diagnostic imaging tests fail to detect.
Methods
Patients who underwent hepatectomy for liver transplantation (LT) and whose whole liver could be sliced and subjected to histological examination between 2000 and 2018 were eligible for this study (n = 89). WFA+-M2BP levels were measured in samples collected before the LT. Comparison of the postoperative histological test results with the preoperative imaging data grouped the patients into no group (N), detected group (D), increased group (I), and decreased or same group (DS), and the results were compared with the WFA+-M2BP values.
Results
Irrespective of underlying hepatic disease conditions, there were 6 patients in the N group, 10 in the D group, 41 in the I group, and 32 in the DS group. The median of the serum WFA+-M2BP level for each group was as follows: N group, 8.05 (1.25–11.9); D group, 11.025 (1.01–18.21); I group, 9.67 (0.29–17.83); and DS group, 9.56 (0.28–19.44) confidence of interval. We found no significant differences between the pairings. Comparison of underlying hepatic diseases revealed that liver cirrhosis due to hepatitis B and C and non-B and -C liver cirrhosis had no significant differences.
Conclusion
Serum WFA+-M2BP cannot help diagnose occult HCC that is already undetected using imaging tests in decompensated liver cirrhosis patients requiring LT.
Molecular markers based phylogenetic inferences reveals cryptic lineage within Sepiella inermis species complex
Authors: Vargheese Sneha , Basheer V. S. 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Over the last two decades genetic and phylogeographic studies in cephalopods around the world have identified many species complexes and cryptic species. Indian Ocean, in the tropical region remained least studied one. In the present study Sepiella inermis samples were collected from different landing centres along Indian coasts to investigate the distribution of these species in a phylogeographic context. Phylogenetic analyses were performed using the mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase I gene and 16S rRNA gene.The currently described species consists of two genetically distinct clades (pair-wise genetic divergence varied in between 7.7 to 9.1%). One clade composed of individuals collected in Arabian Sea and the other from Bay of Bengal (northern and north-eastern part of Indian Ocean). The study led to the identification of potential cryptic speciation within Sepiella inermis. Mean intraspecific and interspecific nucleotide distances for COI were 0–2% and 2–7%, respectively, while these values for 16S rRNA sequences were 0–1% and 1–4%. Furthermore, this study also provides evidence of previously undocumented sub-population structuring in the Indian waters.
Spatial and temporal variation of zooplankton assemblage in Chiffa Wadi (North Algeria)

Published: November 2022

Abstract
The spatial and temporal variation in the distribution, abundance, and assemblage structure of zooplankton were examined in the Chiffa Wadi River, north central Algeria. Samples were taken seasonally from autumn 2020 to summer 2022. Nine physical and chemical variables were recorded, and their relationship with the density of 39 zooplankton species was established using Canonical Correspondence Analysis. In order to study the structure of the zooplankton, Shannon-Wiener diversity indices (H′), Margalef richness index (Dmg), Pielou evenness (E), and abundance were calculated. During the analysis, rotifera was the dominant group in the zooplankton community, represented by 27 taxa, followed by Cladocera (9 taxa), and Copepoda (3 taxa). The diversity index indicated the higher richness, abundance, and evenness of zooplankton at a eutrophic site (S2) compared with other sites. The canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) showed that the structure of zooplankton is influenced by local environmental factors. The present study demonstrates that anthropogenic activities including urban discharge and the construction of Algeria's Medea-Chiffa highway, which increased the nutrient load in the aquatic system, disrupted water quality. However, the distribution and quantity of zooplankton were dramatically impacted by these changes in water quality.

Published: November 2022

Abstract
Bioactive materials interact with cells and modulate their characteristics which enables the generation of cell-based products with desired specifications. However, their evaluation and impact are often overlooked when establishing a cell therapy manufacturing process. In this study, we investigated the role of different surfaces for tissue culture including, untreated polystyrene surface, uncoated Cyclic Olefin Polymer (COP) and COP coated with collagen and recombinant fibronectin. It was observed that hMSCs expanded on COP-coated plates with different bioactive materials resulted in improved cell growth kinetics compared to traditional polystyrene plates and uncoated COP non-coated plates. The doubling time obtained was 2.78 and 3.02 days for hMSC seeded in COP plates coated with collagen type I and recombinant fibronectin respectively, and 4.64 days for cells plated in standard polystyrene treated plates. Metabolite analysis reinforced the findings of the growth kinetic studies, specifically that cells cultured on COP plates coated with collagen I and fibronectin exhibited improved growth as evidenced by a higher lactate production rate (9.38x105 and 9.67x105 pmol.cell-1.day-1, respectively) compared to cells from the polystyrene group (5.86x105 pmol.cell-1.day-1). This study demonstrated that COP is an effective alternative to polystyrene-treated plates when coated with bioactive materials such as collagen and fibronectin, however COP-treated plates in isolation was found not to be sufficient to support cell growth. These findings demonstrate the key role biomaterials play in the cell manufacturing process and the importance of optimising this selection.
