description: Motion estimation is one of the major problems in developing video coding applications. Among all motion estimation approaches, Block matching (BM) algorithms are the most popular methods due to their effectiveness and simplicity for both software and hardware implementations. A BM approach assumes that the movement of pixels within a defined region of the current frame (Macro-Block, MB) can be modeled as a translation of pixels contained in the previous frame. In this procedure, the motion vector is obtained by minimizing the sum of absolute differences (SAD) produced by the MB of the current frame over a determined search window from the previous frame. The SAD evaluation is computationally expensive and represents the most consuming operation in the BM process. The most straightforward BM method is the full search algorithm (FSA) which finds the most accurate motion vector, calculating exhaustively the SAD values for all elements of the search window. Over this decade, several fast BM algorithms have been proposed to reduce the number of SAD operations by calculating only a fixed subset of search locations at the price of a poor accuracy. In this paper, a new algorithm based on Differential Evolution (DE) is proposed to reduce the number of search locations in the BM process. In order to avoid computing several search locations, the algorithm estimates the SAD values (fitness) for some locations using the SAD values of previously calculated neighboring positions. Since the proposed algorithm does not consider any fixed search pattern or other different assumption, a high probability for finding the true minimum (accurate motion vector) is expected. In comparison to other fast BM algorithms, the proposed method deploys more accurate motion vectors yet delivering competitive time rates.

description: A nivel internacional es clara la incorporación de contenidos asociados a las metaciencias en los procesos de formación de profesores de ciencia (Flick y Lederman, 2010). No obstante, a nivel regional su incorporación aún es objeto de estudio y de concreción curricular y didáctica (Morales y Cardoso, 2014). En consecuencia, indagar sobre los procesos de actualización de este tipo de ideas que se desmarcan de  contenidos estrictamente disciplinares y cuestionan aspectos relacionados con temas metadisciplinares se configuran como relevantes en nuestro contexto. Este artículo tiene por objetivo evaluar la evolución de las ideas acerca de la Naturaleza de la Ciencia y la Tecnología (NdCyT) en profesores de ciencias tanto en formación como en ejercicio, evaluando qué tan informadas o actualizadas son. Para su valoración, se diseñaron y aplicaron secuencias de enseñanza y aprendizaje (SEA) relacionada con la provisionalidad del conocimiento científico, las características de la actividad y el conocimiento científico y la carga teórica de las observaciones.  El enfoque metodológico y las SEA se encuentran en el marco del  Proyecto iberoamericano denominado Enseñanza y Aprendizaje de la Naturaleza y la Tecnología. Un estudio Longitudinal. Proyecto de Investigación EDU2010-16553, financiado por una ayuda del Plan Nacional de I+D del Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación (España).

‘Hitting a brick wall’: using conceptual metaphorical theory to explore teachers’ conceptions of learning in computer science
Creators: name: MC GARR, OLIVER
Publisher: name: University of Limerick
Year: 2023
Subjects: Education

description: The metaphors used by teachers to explain the nature of student learning and student difficulty can reveal a great deal about how teachers conceive the teaching and learning process. This is an important area of research as it can shed light on how they see their role in the learning process and how they should intervene to assist students in difficulty. Drawing on conceptual metaphorical theory, this paper explores how high school teachers described student learning by examining the metaphors they drew on to talk about student learning. The research found that the teachers drew primarily on metaphors associated with a journey when describing student learning. The paper argues that the employment of such metaphors can limit teachers’ responses to situations where students experience challenge and difficulty. It is further argued that teachers need to reflect on the use of such metaphors (and the accompanying essentialist language) and consider the affordances offered by employing alternative metaphors to describe student learning.

description: We study the temporal and energy spectral properties of the unique neutron star low-mass X-ray binary XTE J1701-462. After assuming the HB/NB vertex as a reference position of accretion rate, the horizontal branch oscillation (HBO) of the HB/NB vertex is roughly 50 Hz. It indicates that the HBO is independent with the accretion rate or the source intensity. The spectral analysis shows $R_{\rm{in}}\propto\dot{M}_{\rm{Disk}}^{2.9\pm0.09}$ in the HB/NB vertex and $R_{\rm{in}}\propto\dot{M}_{\rm{Disk}}^{1.7\pm0.06}$ in the NB/FB vertex, which implies that different accretion rate may be produced in the HB/NB vertex and the NB/FB vertex. The Comptonization component could be fitted by constrained broken power law (CBPL) or nthComp. Different with GX 17+2, the frequencies of HBO positively correlate with the inner disk radius, which contradict with the prediction of Lense-Thirring precession model. XTE J1701-462, both in the Cyg-like phase and in the Sco-like phase, follows a positive correlation between the break frequency of broad band noise and the characteristic frequency of HBO, which is called the W-K relation. An anticorrelation between the frequency of HBO and photon energy is observed. Moreover, the rms of HBO increases with photon energy till ~10 keV. We discuss the possible origin of HBO from corona in XTE J1701-462.

description: En el marco del Proyecto EANCYT, el propósito del presente trabajo es presentar dos secuencias didácticas que se han diseñado como instrumentos de intervención en el aula, para mejorar la comprensión sobre Naturaleza de la Ciencia y la Tecnología (NdCyT) en estudiantes de 13 a 18 años, que cursan los años 1°, 4°, 5° y 6º de la escuela secundaria en la República Argentina. Se analizan las actitudes de los y las estudiantes acerca de la inclusión de las mujeres en el ámbito científico, antes y después de la aplicación de las secuencias didácticas. Se trabajó sobre dos temas específicos: la Infrarrepresentación de las Mujeres (IM) y los Efectos de Género (EG). Los resultados obtenidos muestran que la inclusión explícita de temas de género en el aula logra mejorar algunas actitudes de los y las estudiantes. Sin embargo, es preocupante observar que los valores de partida (pre-test) de las estudiantes de primer año son, en algunas frases, superiores a los alcanzados por parte de las alumnas de 6° que ya han transitado casi todo el nivel medio. Estos índices indicarían que la escuela secundaria estaría creando condiciones que alientan, en las estudiantes, la idea de la supuesta superioridad masculina en el ámbito científico. También se han encontrado algunas diferencias significativas según el género; en algunas frases son las mujeres las que obtienen mayor índice y en otras son los hombres, esto varía dependiendo del año de escolaridad secundaria.

description: La investigación didáctica sugiere la importancia de promover una enseñanza explícita y reflexiva sobre la Naturaleza de la Ciencia y la Tecnología (NdCyT) en la educación científica, señalando los beneficios derivados de ello y el papel clave de estos contenidos innovadores para la alfabetización científica de la ciudadanía. El presente trabajo describe una secuencia de enseñanza y aprendizaje diseñada para facilitar la comprensión de estudiantes de secundaria sobre un aspecto de NdCyT (naturaleza de las investigaciones científicas). Con este propósito, ofrece un contexto en el que el alumnado ha de plantear hipótesis, diseñar experimentos para poner a prueba sus ideas iníciales, construir modelos conceptuales que expliquen las evidencias observadas y comunicar y discutir resultados junto con las reflexiones apropiadas sobre esos procesos. De este modo, no sólo se les involucra en un aprendizaje explícito y activo que promueve el desarrollo de conocimientos, procedimientos y competencias científicas, sino que se les familiariza con el modo en que la ciencia construye conocimiento, es decir, se promueve la comprensión de NdC. Para valorar el impacto de la propuesta hemos utilizado un diseño pre-test/post-test con grupo control y experimental con objeto de evaluar la evolución de algunas de las creencias asociadas al trabajo científico. Los resultados muestran algunos indicadores modestos de mejora del grupo experimental en la comprensión de la naturaleza de las investigaciones científicas.

description: Background: Previous research has shown that nostalgia for the pre-addicted self can motivate people living with addiction to engage in behavior change. Objective: Herein, we explored nostalgia for the addictive behavior—labeled addiction-related nostalgia (ARN)—among people in recovery from engaging in addictive behavior. We tested the novel idea that ARN is positively associated with ambivalence about recovery. We also hypothesized that ARN may counteract the positive influence of optimism on individuals’ commitment to recovery. Results: In two studies involving individuals in recovery from a gambling (Study 1; N=301) or alcohol use disorder (Study 2; N=604), ARN was linked to increased ambivalence about recovery, while optimism was associated with decreased ambivalence. As expected, the interaction between optimism and ARN revealed that nostalgia either eliminated (Study 1) or reduced (Study 2) the negative relation between optimism and ambivalence. Conclusions: These findings underscore the challenges posed by ARN in the recovery process and emphasize the importance of interventions that address and mitigate its impact while considering the moderating role of optimism.

description: We report in-plane resistivity ($ρ$) and transverse magnetoresistance (MR) measurements in underdoped HgBa$_2$CuO$_{4+δ}$ (Hg1201). Contrary to the longstanding view that Kohler's rule is strongly violated in underdoped cuprates, we find that it is in fact satisfied in the pseudogap phase of Hg1201. The transverse MR shows a quadratic field dependence, $δρ/ρ_o=a H^{2}$, with $a(T)\propto T^{-4}$. In combination with the observed $ρ\propto T^2$ dependence, this is consistent with a single Fermi-liquid quasiparticle scattering rate. We show that this behavior is universal, yet typically masked in cuprates with lower structural symmetry or strong disorder effects.

description: The investigation of random walks is central to a variety of stochastic processes in physics, chemistry, and biology. To describe a transport phenomenon, we study a variant of the one-dimensional persistent random walk, which we call a zero-one-only process. It makes a step in the same direction as the previous step with probability $p$, and stops to change the direction with $1-p$. By using the generating-function method, we calculate its characteristic quantities such as the statistical moments and probability of the first return.

description: Purpose: The purpose of our study was to identify whether different aspects of social media use were associated with substance use among middle- and high school-aged youth. Methods: Participants were recruited from four Northeast U.S. middle schools and invited to complete an online survey in Fall 2019 and Fall 2020. We conducted separate adjusted logistic mixed effects models the substance use outcomes: ever use of alcohol, cannabis, e-cigarettes, tobacco cigarettes, prescription drugs, and multiple substances. Our sample included N = 586 participants (52.7% female, 58% White). Results: Seeing a social media post about drugs/alcohol in the past-12-months was significantly associated with higher odds of ever using alcohol, cannabis, e-cigarettes, and multiple substance use. Total number of social media sites ever used was significantly associated with higher odds of ever using cannabis, cigarettes, e-cigarettes, and multiple substances. Checking social media every hour or more was significantly associated with higher odds of ever using alcohol. Higher problematic internet use score was significantly associated with higher odds of ever using cannabis, e-cigarettes, and multiple substances. Online social support seeking score was not associated substance use. Conclusions: Our findings support the need for substance use prevention and social media literacy education and screening to begin early, ideally in elementary school before youth are using social media and substances.

description: The purpose of this paper is the discussion of a pair of coupled linear oscillators that has recently been proposed as a model of a system of two optical resonators. By means of an algebraic approach we show that the frequencies of the classical and quantum-mechanical interpretations of the optical phenomenon are exactly the same. Consequently, if the classical frequencies are real, then the quantum-mechanical eigenvalues are also real.

description: Objective: To examine the extent to which pain acceptance, pain catastrophising and alexithymia moderate associations between pain intensity and psychological pain medication dependence. Methods: Participants (106 hospital outpatients with chronic spinal pain) completed the Leeds Dependence Questionnaire (LDQ) to measure psychological dependence on pain medication, and the Chronic Pain Acceptance Questionnaire-8 (CPAQ-8), the Pain Catastrophising Scale (PCS) and the Toronto Alexithymia Scale-20 (TAS-20), plus the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21). Results: Multiple linear regression showed that degree of psychological dependence (measured dimensionally across the range of LDQ scores) was associated with TAS subscale difficulty identifying feelings (DIF) (β = 0.249, p = <0.002) and PCS subscale rumination (β = 0.193, p = 0.030), independently of pain intensity and risk behaviors for medication misuse. The effect of pain intensity was moderated by rumination, with pain intensity more strongly associated with dependence when rumination was high (interaction β = 0.192, p = 0.004). Logistic regression showed that the effect of pain intensity on severe dependence (measured categorically as LDQ score ≥ 20) was moderated by alexithymia, so that severe dependence was independently associated with the combination of intense pain and high alexithymia (interaction odds ratio = 7.26, 95% CIs = 1.63–32.42, p = 0.009). Conclusions: Rumination and alexithymia moderated the associations between pain intensity and psychological pain medication dependence, consistent with emotion regulation theory. This raises the possibility that specifically targeting rumination about pain and symptoms of alexithymia could potentially improve the effectiveness of psychological interventions for chronic pain and help people to avoid or reduce their psychological dependence on pain medication.

description: In the framework of the one boson exchange model, we have calculated the effective potentials between two heavy mesons $B \bar{B}^{*}$ and $D \bar{D}^{*}$ from the t- and u-channel $π$, $η$, $ρ$, $ω$ and $σ$ meson exchange with four kinds of quantum number: $I=0$, $J^{PC}=1^{++}$; $I=0$, $J^{PC}=1^{+-}$; $I=1$, $J^{PC}=1^{++}$; $I=1$, $J^{PC}=1^{+-}$. We keep the recoil corrections to the $B \bar{B}^{*}$ and $D \bar{D}^{*}$ system up to $O(\frac{1}{M^2})$. The spin orbit force appears at $O(\frac{1}{M})$, which turns out to be important for the very loosely bound molecular states. Our numerical results show that the momentum-related corrections are unfavorable to the formation of the molecular states in the $I=0$, $J^{PC}=1^{++}$ and $I=1$, $J^{PC}=1^{+-}$ channels in the $D \bar{D}^{*}$ systems.

Nonequilibrium Spectroscopy of Topological Edge Liquids
Creators: name: Apostolov, Stanislav S.

description: We develop a theory for energy and spatially resolved tunneling spectroscopy of topological quantum spin Hall helical states driven out of equilibrium. When a helical liquid is constrained between two superconducting reservoirs transport at the edge is governed by multiple Andreev reflections. The resulting quasiparticle distribution functions of the edge channels exhibit multiple discontinuities at subgap energies with the periodicity of an applied voltage. The combined effect of interactions, disorder, and normal scattering off the superconducting interface leads to the inelastic processes mixing different helicity modes, thus causing smearing of these singularities. If equilibration is strong, then the distribution functions of the edge channels tend to collapse into a Fermi-like function with an effective temperature determined by the superconducting gap, applied voltage, and intraedge interaction parameter. We conclude that mapping out nonequilibrium distribution functions may help to quantify the relative importance of various relevant perturbations that spoil ideally ballistic edge transport.

Inspeção escolar e escrita pedagógica: o inquérito de 1875
Creators: name: Magalhães, Justino
name: Adão, Áurea
Publisher: name: Interacções
Year: 2015

description: No decurso de Oitocentos, a escrita pedagógica esteve na base da instituição educativa moderna e até ao terceiro quartel do século XIX foi fundamentalmente um produto da inspeção escolar. Então ganhou amplitude e propriedade. A Educação passou a ser tomada como instituição e os planos de reforma tornaram-se objeto de amplos debates constitucionais. Também a escrita didática evoluiu no sentido da normalização, revestindo-se de técnica, especificidade e exclusividade. Os autores retomam a longa duração da escrita da inspeção escolar, distinguindo três ciclos: as Consultas, usuais nas primeiras décadas de Oitocentos; as Inspeções Extraordinárias, realizadas sob o signo conhecer para decidir; uma inspeção regular, devidamente formalizada, como sucedeu com o Inquérito de 1875. O estudo demonstra o significado histórico-pedagógico desta inspeção, como fonte para a história nacional e para a história municipal e local.

Ricomincio da me: come contribuire alla trasformazione ecologica

Publisher: name: Eurac Research

description: Siamo di fronte a una contraddizione: sappiamo di dover cambiare le nostre pratiche di consumo per mitigare gli effetti della crisi climatica, ma il più delle volte non lo facciamo. Perché non ci riusciamo? La risposta sta nella relazione tra il nostro sistema socioeconomico e le norme socioculturali dominanti. Un modello economico basato sulla crescita genera soggetti a loro volta orientati alla crescita, che pensano al benessere unicamente come conseguenza dell’aumento delle ricchezze materiali. Se vogliamo trasformare la nostra economia e società in chiave ecologica, dobbiamo partire da un cambiamento di noi stessi, delle norme sociali e culturali dominanti, per rivoluzionare i nostri desideri, aspirazioni e sensibilità, in modo da allinearli ai ritmi e alle necessità degli ecosistemi.
Spectrum and light curve of a supernova shock breakout through a thick Wolf-Rayet wind

description: Wolf-Rayet stars are known to eject winds. Thus, when a Wolf-Rayet star explodes as a supernova, a fast, $>30,000$ km/s, shock is expected to be driven through a wind. We study the signal expected from a fast supernova shock propagating through an optically thick wind, and find that the electrons behind the shock driven into the wind are cooled efficiently, by inverse Compton over soft photons that were deposited by the radiation mediated shock that crossed the star. Therefore, the bolometric luminosity is comparable to the kinetic energy flux through the shock, and the spectrum is found to be a power-law, which slope and frequency range depend on the number flux of soft photons available for cooling. Wolf-Rayet supernovae that explode through a thick wind have a high flux of soft photons, producing a flat spectrum, $νF_ν=Const$, in the X-ray range $0.1\lesssim T\lesssim 50$ keV. As the shock expands into an optically thin wind, the soft photons are no longer able to cool the shock that plows through the wind, and the bulk of the emission takes the form of a standard core-collapse supernova (without a wind). However, a small fraction of the soft photons is upscattered by the shocked wind and produces a transient unique X-ray signature.

A Reforma de Rodrigues Sampaio e a definição da rede escolar no município de Arruda dos Vinhos – municipalismo
Creators: name: Silva, Carlos Manique Da
Publisher: name: Interacções
Year: 2015

description: A literatura académica tem dedicado algumas páginas à reforma educativa de Rodrigues Sampaio. Estamos, porém, longe de conhecer o impacto que a citada medida reformista teve nos vários municípios do país. Este estudo adota uma perspetiva teórica proveniente da história da educação. A ideia que encerra é a seguinte: “os municípios dispuseram de prerrogativas e exploraram as margens de autonomização até ao limite das suas potencialidades, com vista a uma idealização e a uma política escolar e educativa que lhes conferisse uma identidade e uma singularidade, cultural, social, económica” Magalhães, 2010: 214). Procura-se contribuir para o conhecimento do papel dos municípios na educação e no desenvolvimento local. O esforço interpretativo das evidências empíricas (fontes e memórias locais) é guiado por uma interrogação: que critérios orientaram a definição da rede escolar no município de Arruda?
