description: This paper outlines the development and validation of a survey questionnaire designed to evaluate user experience, with a focus on positive emotion (UEPE) for Augmented Reality (AR) application in historical tourism. Although numerous standardized questions measure user experience, there are limited instruments used to measure user experience, focusing on positive emotions, which is the user experience goal. The study aimed to create a new questionnaire and evaluate its face and content validity. A self-administered questionnaire was developed based on the literature. The face validity index (FVI) and content validity index (CVI) were analyzed using Microsoft Excel. Version 1.0 contained 30 items, divided into six domains. The item-level FVI (I-FVI) achieved a minimum value of 0.83, with the exception of four items. Each domain’s scale-level FVI (S-FVI/Ave) was above 0.9 after item revisions. The scale-level CVI (S-CVI/Ave) for all domains exceeded 0.9, indicating good item relevancy. The study finalized the questionnaire, preparing it for the next validation phase through Exploratory and Confirmatory Factor Analysis. The questionnaire is specifically designed for historical tourism, evaluating UX in an AR-based tourism application. The findings contribute to both academic research and industry practice by providing a tool for assessing UX with a focus on positive emotions in immersive technologies.

Das IAB hat mit dem Hochfrequenten Online-Personen-Panel „Leben und Erwerbstätigkeit in Zeiten von Corona“ (IAB-HOPP) eine neue Befragung mit acht Wellen aufgesetzt, die im Zeitraum von Mai 2020 bis Juni 2021 Personen zu ihrer derzeitigen Lebens- und Arbeitssituation befragte. Die Daten sollen Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern die Möglichkeit geben, die Auswirkungen der Covid-19-Pandemie zu erforschen. Dieser Datenreport gibt einen Überblick über den Datensatz und die dazu notwendigen Aufbereitungsschritte.
Can We Buy Virtue? Implications from State University Funding On Musical Instrument Performance Teacher Mandate

description: Recent world developments have put a strain on the humanities in general, and higher education music performance study degree-programmes in particular. In an educational system currently promoting consumer product relationships where the music performance teacher is very much accountable for the students' development into professional musicians and, recently, also sustainable world citizens, we must give more attention to what, whom and why we educate? This chapter is an armchair analytical philosophical continuation of a paper published elsewhere (Rolfhamre, 2020). Taking the lead from Julia Annas' (2011) virtueas-skill, I will, here, elaborate on what implications the Norwegian state higher education funding system may have on the higher education music performance teacher's perceived mandate from the perspectives of music pedagogy, rhetoric and virtue ethics. First, I pursue three different usages of the verb "to buy" to exemplify why I find the chapter's title to be relevant and valid. This sets the premises for the following turn to rhetoric to highlight the starting point's persuasive functions and incentives. Subsequently, I briefly relate the argument to Butlerian performativity to emphasise its relation to normativity, inclusion-exclusion and the theoretical possibility of "breaking free". From this position, I draw on Aristotelian phronesis, mainly through the position held by Hansen (2007) to sketch up an ecology in which I ask how this all affects the teacher's mandate?

description: In this paper we propose a process of lagrangian reduction and reconstruction for nonholonomic discrete mechanical systems where the action of a continuous symmetry group makes the configuration space a principal bundle. The result of the reduction process is a discrete dynamical system that we call the discrete reduced system. We illustrate the techniques by analyzing two types of discrete symmetric systems where it is possible to go further and obtain (forced) discrete mechanical systems that determine the dynamics of the discrete reduced system.

description: We establish the asymptotic expansion in $β$ matrix models with a confining, off-critical potential, in the regime where the support of the equilibrium measure is a union of segments. We first address the case where the filling fractions of these segments are fixed, and show the existence of a $1/N$ expansion. We then study the asymptotics of the sum over the filling fractions, to obtain the full asymptotic expansion for the initial problem in the multi-cut regime. In particular, we identify the fluctuations of the linear statistics and show that they are approximated in law by the sum of a Gaussian random variable and an independent Gaussian discrete random variable with oscillating center. Fluctuations of filling fractions are also described by an oscillating discrete Gaussian random variable. We apply our results to study the all-order small dispersion asymptotics of solutions of the Toda chain associated with the one Hermitian matrix model ($β= 2$) as well as orthogonal ($β= 1$) and skew-orthogonal ($β= 4$) polynomials outside the bulk.

description: We briefly review the notion of second order constrained (continuous) system (SOCS) and then propose a discrete time counterpart of it, which we naturally call discrete second order constrained system (DSOCS). To illustrate and test numerically our model, we construct certain integrators that simulate the evolution of two mechanical systems: a particle moving in the plane with prescribed signed curvature, and the inertia wheel pendulum with a Lyapunov constraint. In addition, we prove a local existence and uniqueness result for trajectories of DSOCSs. As a first comparison of the underlying geometric structures, we study the symplectic behavior of both SOCSs and DSOCSs.

description: We consider a mixture of two single-spin-state fermions with an interaction of negligible range and infinite $s$-wave scattering length. By varying the mass ratio $α$ across $α_c\simeq 13.6069$ one can switch on-and-off the Efimov effect. We determine analytically the third cluster coefficient of the gas. We show that it is a smooth function of $α$ across $α_c$ since, unexpectedly, the three-body parameter characterizing the interaction is relevant even on the non-Efimovian side $α<α_c$.

description: The world's leading directional dark matter experiments currently all utilize low-pressure gas Time Projection Chamber (TPC) technologies. We discuss some of the challenges for this technology, for which balancing the goal of achieving the best sensitivity with that of cost effective scale-up requires optimization over a large parameter space. Critical for this are the precision measurements of the fundamental properties of both electron and nuclear recoil tracks down to the lowest detectable energies. Such measurements are necessary to provide a benchmark for background discrimination and directional sensitivity that could be used for future optimization studies for directional dark matter experiments. In this paper we describe a small, high resolution, high signal- to-noise GEM-based TPC with a 2D CCD readout designed for this goal. The performance of the detector was characterized using alpha particles, X-rays, gamma-rays, and neutrons, enabling detailed measurements of electron and nuclear recoil tracks. Stable effective gas gains of greater than $1 \times 10^5$ were obtained in 100 Torr of pure CF$_4$ by a cascade of three standard CERN GEMs each with a 140 $μ$m pitch. The high signal-to-noise and sub-millimeter spatial resolution of the GEM amplification and CCD readout, together with low diffusion, allow for excellent background discrimination between electron and nuclear recoils down below $\sim$10 keVee ($\sim$23 keVr fluorine recoil). Even lower thresholds, necessary for the detection of low mass WIMPs for example, might be achieved by lowering the pressure and utilizing full 3D track reconstruction. These and other paths for improvements are discussed, as are possible fundamental limitations imposed by the physics of energy loss.
Solution Phase Space and Conserved Charges: A General Formulation for Charges Associated with Exact Symmetries

description: We provide a general formulation for calculating conserved charges for solutions to generally covariant gravitational theories with possibly other internal gauge symmetries, in any dimensions and with generic asymptotic behaviors. These solutions are generically specified by a number of exact (continuous, global) symmetries and some parameters. We define "parametric variations" as field perturbations generated by variations of the solution parameters. Employing the covariant phase space method, we establish that the set of these solutions (up to pure gauge transformations) form a phase space, the \emph{solution phase space}, and that the tangent space of this phase space includes the parametric variations. We then compute conserved charge variations associated with the exact symmetries of the family of solutions, caused by parametric variations. Integrating the charge variations over a path in the solution phase space, we define the conserved charges. In particular, we revisit "black hole entropy as a conserved charge" and the derivation of the first law of black hole thermodynamics. We show that the solution phase space setting enables us to define black hole entropy by an integration over any compact, codminesion-2, smooth spacelike surface encircling the hole, as well as to a natural generalization of Wald and Iyer-Wald analysis to cases involving gauge fields.

description: SF$_{6}$ is an inert and electronegative gas that has a long history of use in high voltage insulation and numerous other industrial applications. Although SF$_{6}$ is used as a trace component to introduce stability in tracking chambers, its highly electronegative properties have limited its use in tracking detectors. In this work we present a series of measurements with SF$_{6}$ as the primary gas in a low pressure Time Projection Chamber (TPC), with a thick GEM used as the avalanche and readout device. The first results of an $^{55}$Fe energy spectrum in SF$_{6}$ are presented. Measurements of the mobility and longitudinal diffusion confirm the negative ion drift of SF$_{6}$. However, the observed waveforms have a peculiar but interesting structure that indicates multiple drift species and a dependence on the reduced field ($E/p$), as well as on the level of water vapor contamination. The discovery of a distinct secondary peak in the waveform, together with its identification and use for fiducializing events in the TPC, are also presented. Our measurements demonstrate that SF$_{6}$ is an ideal gas for directional dark matter detection. In particular, the high fluorine content is desirable for spin-dependent sensitivity, negative ion drift ensures low diffusion over large drift distances, and the multiple species of charge carriers allow for full detector fiducialization.
Smoothed nonparametric tests and their properties

description: In this paper we propose new smoothed sign and Wilcoxon's signed rank tests, which are based on a kernel estimator of the underlying distribution function of data. We discuss approximations of $p$-values and asymptotic properties of these tests. The new smoothed tests are equivalent to the ordinary sign and Wilcoxon's tests in the sense of the Pitman's asymptotic relative efficiency, and the differences of the ordinary and the new tests converge to zero in probability. Under the null hypothesis, the main terms of the asymptotic expectations and variances of the tests do not depend on the underlying distribution. Though the smoothed tests are not distribution-free, we can obtain Edgeworth expansions with residual term $o(n^{-1})$, which do not depend on the underlying distribution.
A new kernel estimator of hazard ratio and its asymptotic mean squared error

Subjects: subject: Statistics Theory (math.ST)

description: The hazard function is a ratio of a density and survival function, and it is a basic tool of the survival analysis. In this paper we propose a kernel estimator of the hazard ratio function, which are based on a modification of Ćwik and Mielniczuk's method. We study nonparametric estimators of the hazard function and compare those estimators by means of asymptotic mean squared error ($AMSE$). We obtain asymptotic bias and variance of the new estimator, and compare them with a naive estimator. The asymptotic variance of the new estimator is always smaller than the naive estimator's, so we also discuss an improvement of $AMSE$ using Terrell and Scott's bias reduction method. The new modified estimator ensures the non-negativity, and we demonstrate the numerical improvement.
Imaging $^{55}$Fe Electron Tracks in a GEM-based TPC Using a CCD Readout

description: Images of resolved 5.9 keV electron tracks produced from $^{55}$Fe X-ray interactions are presented for the first time using an optical readout time projection chamber (TPC). The corresponding energy spectra are also shown, with the FWHM energy resolution in the 30-40\% range depending on gas pressure and gain. These tracks were produced in low pressure carbon tetrafluoride (CF$_4$) gas, and imaged with a fast lens and low noise CCD camera system using the secondary scintillation produced in GEM/THGEM amplification devices. The GEM/THGEMs provided effective gas gains of $\gtrsim 2 \times 10^5$ in CF$_4$ at low pressures in the 25-100 Torr range. The ability to resolve such low energy particle tracks has important applications in dark matter and other rare event searches, as well as in X-ray polarimetry. A practical application of the optical signal from $^{55}$Fe is that it provides a tool for mapping the detector gain spatial uniformity.

description: We propose new smoothed median and the Wilcoxon's rank sum test. As is pointed out by Maesono et al.(2016), some nonparametric discrete tests have a problem with their significance probability. Because of this problem, the selection of the median and the Wilcoxon's test can be biased too, however, we show new smoothed tests are free from the problem. Significance probabilities and local asymptotic powers of the new tests are studied, and we show that they inherit good properties of the discrete tests.
Children’s literature mirrored  by scholarly educational journals

description: Abstract – The paper is a quantitative and qualitative analysis of German literary production for young readers in educational review in the period 2000-2010. The Author has used German data-base FIS-Bildung, the first access to academic news in the field of “Bildungsforschung”, obviously also for Literature for children. Thanks to specific passwords - as “Kinderliteratur”, “Jugendliteratur” and “Zeitschriftenartikel” – researchers can obtain a list of articles. The results analyze shows that literature for children’s not an important aspect in the field of educational research, because, generally, the attention to this topic is related  to school practice.

Riassunto – L’articolo esamina quanti articoli sopra la letteratura per i ragazzi sono pubblicati nelle riviste pedagogiche in Germania dal 2000 al 2010. Esamina anche dove sono stati pubblicati, di cosa parlano e che cosa significa questo per la letteratura per ragazzi come oggetto della ricerca pedagogica. A tal fine è stata usata la banca dati tedesca FIS-Bildung, il primo accesso all'informazione accademica nei settori di “Bildungsforschung”, pedagogia e la prassi pedagogica, anche per quanto attiene l’oggetto di questo intervento. Con l'ausilio di specifiche parole chiave - in questo caso “Kinderliteratur” e “Jugendliteratur” e “Zeitschriftenartikel” - è possibile ottenere un elenco di articoli di giornale.

A new method of joint nonparametric estimation of probability density and its support
Creators: name: Moriyama, Taku
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Statistics Theory (math.ST)

description: In this paper we propose a new method of joint nonparametric estimation of probability density and its support. As is well known, nonparametric kernel density estimator has "boundary bias problem" when the support of the population density is not the whole real line. To avoid the unknown boundary effects, our estimator detects the boundary, and eliminates the boundary-bias of the estimator simultaneously. Moreover, we refer an extension to a simple multivariate case, and propose an improved estimator free from the unknown boundary bias.

description: There are theories of coverings of $C^*$-algebras which can be included into a following list: coverings of commutative $C^*$-algebras, coverings of $C^*$-algebras of groupoids and foliations, coverings of noncommutative tori, the double covering of the quantum group $SO_q(3)$. This work is devoted to a single general theory which includes all theories of this list, i.e. we develop a system of axioms which can be applied for every element of the list. Otherwise since topological coverings are related to the set of geometric constructions one can obtain noncommutative generalizations of these constructions. Here the generalizations of the universal covering space, fundamental group, Hurewicz homomorphism, covering of the Riemannian manifold, flat connection are explained. The theory gives pure algebraic proof well known results of the topology and the differential geometry. Besides there are applications of the theory to (unbounded) operator spaces and this theme is also discussed here.

On the simplest static and stationary vacuum quadrupolar metrics

description: In the present paper we argue that a special case of the Bach-Weyl metric describing a static configuration of two Schwarzschild black holes gives rise, after extending its parameter space to complex values, to a very simple 2-parameter model for the gravitational field of a static deformed mass. We compare this model, which has no restrictions on the quadrupole parameter, with the well-known Zipoy-Voorhees $δ$-metric and show in particular that the mass quadrupole moment in the latter solution cannot take arbitrary negative values. We subsequently add an arbitrary angular momentum to our static model and study some properties of the resulting 3-parameter stationary solitonic spacetime, which permits us to introduce the notion of the Fodor-Hoenselaers-Perjés relativistic multipole moments.

description: The current study investigated the tyrosinase inhibitory activity of compounds extracted from Fernandoa adenophylla, complemented by in silico analysis. Using methanolic extract and chromatography, several compounds were isolated and tested for their inhibitory effects against human and mushroom tyrosinase enzymes. The indanone derivative (Sample CC) emerged as the most potent inhibitor, demonstrating 96.32% inhibition with an IC50 of 6.2 ± 0.9 µg/mL against human tyrosinase and 91.3% inhibition with an IC50 of 1.8 ± 0.5 µg/mL against mushroom tyrosinase, surpassing the standard inhibitor, Kojic acid. In silico docking studies further supported these findings, revealing strong binding interactions between Sample CC and the active site of the tyrosinase, suggesting a robust inhibition mechanism. The analysis of interaction plots showed that the isolated compounds interact with key amino acid residues. These results highlight the potential of F. adenophylla compounds as natural tyrosinase inhibitors, offering promising alternatives for therapeutic and cosmetic applications.
Evaluation of Rounding Functions in Nearest-Neighbor Interpolation

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: A novel evaluation study of the most appropriate round function for nearest-neighbor (NN) image interpolation is presented. Evaluated rounding functions are selected among the five rounding rules defined by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 754-2008 standard. Both full- and no-reference image quality assessment (IQA) metrics are used to study and evaluate the influence of rounding functions on NN interpolation image quality. The concept of achieved occurrences over targeted occurrences is used to determine the percentage of achieved occurrences based on the number of test images used. Inferential statistical analysis is applied to deduce from a small number of images and draw a conclusion of the behavior of each rounding function on a bigger number of images. Under the normal distribution and at the level of confidence equals to 95%, the maximum and minimum achievable occurrences by each evaluated rounding function are both provided based on the inferential analysis-based experiments.

Leveraging complexity frameworks to refine theories of engagement: Advancing self‐regulated learning in the age of artificial intelligence

description:
Capturing evidence for dynamic changes in self‐regulated learning (SRL) behaviours resulting from interventions is challenging for researchers. In the current study, we identified students who were likely to do poorly in a biology course and those who were likely to do well. Then, we randomly assigned a portion of the students predicted to perform poorly to a science of learning to learn intervention where they were taught SRL study strategies. Learning outcome and log data (257 K events) were collected from n = 226 students. We used a complex systems framework to model the differences in SRL including the amount, interrelatedness, density and regularity of engagement captured in digital trace data (ie, logs). Differences were compared between students who were predicted to (1) perform poorly (control, n = 48), (2) perform poorly and received intervention (treatment, n = 95) and (3) perform well (not flagged, n = 83). Results indicated that the regularity of students' engagement was predictive of course grade, and that the intervention group exhibited increased regularity in engagement over the control group immediately after the intervention and maintained that increase over the course of the semester. We discuss the implications of these findings in relation to the future of artificial intelligence and potential uses for monitoring student learning in online environments. Practitioner notes What is already known about this topic Self‐regulated learning (SRL) knowledge and skills are strong predictors of postsecondary STEM student success. SRL is a dynamic, temporal process that leads to purposeful student engagement. Methods and metrics for measuring dynamic SRL behaviours in learning contexts are needed. What this paper adds A Markov process for measuring dynamic SRL processes using log data. Evidence that dynamic, interaction‐dominant aspects of SRL predict student achievement. Evidence that SRL processes can be meaningfully impacted through educational intervention. Implications for theory and practice Complexity approaches inform theory and measurement of dynamic SRL processes. Static representations of dynamic SRL processes are promising learning analytics metrics. Engineered features of LMS usage are valuable contributions to AI models.

If you have not yet heard of ChatGPT, you will! This artificial intelligence (AI)-based chatbot is making waves in medicine,  education, academic publishing, and more widely. If you are a clinician and dismissed the idea that AI-powered care is part of our future, think again. AI-powered chatbots like ChatGPT are being put to the test on clinical scenarios and board examinations and fare pretty well. GPT, generative pretrained transformer, describes the next generation in AI-powered chatbots that not only construct full sentences on topic but now synthesize information from many fields, from many sources, and with tremendous nuance. We tried ChatGPT recently, asking it to create a patient-facing educational brochure on medications for gout. Almost instantaneously, ChatGPT spit out a brochure that was accurate, written at the correct reading level, and appropriate in its supportive tone.

description: We introduce a moment map picture for holomorphic string algebroids where the Hamiltonian gauge action is described by means of inner automorphisms of Courant algebroids. The zero locus of our moment map is given by the solutions of the Calabi system, a coupled system of equations which provides a unifying framework for the classical Calabi problem and the Hull-Strominger system. Our main results are concerned with the geometry of the moduli space of solutions, and assume a technical condition which is fulfilled in examples. We prove that the moduli space carries a pseudo-Kähler metric with Kähler potential given by the dilaton functional, a topological formula for the metric, and an infinitesimal Donaldson-Uhlenbeck-Yau type theorem.

description: In this study, various extracts of Cleome ornithopodioides L.: n-hexane, dichloromethane (DCM), ethyl acetate (EA), ethanol, 70% ethanol, and water (infusion) were used to examine the chemical profiles and biological activities of the plant. The characterisation of the compounds was carried out by HPLC coupled to ion trap mass spectrometry. Antioxidant activity was evaluated through six assays. Additionally, the enzyme inhibition activities of the extracts were tested against acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), tyrosinase, α-amylase, and α-glucosidase. The extracts showed varying levels of bioactive compounds, with the water (infused) (38.95 mg GAE/g) and the 70% ethanol (38.75 mg GAE/g) extracts having the highest total phenolics. The extracts primarily contained flavonoid glycosides (quercetin glycosides). The 70% ethanol extract exhibited the highest antioxidant activity as indicated by four assays (DPPH: 68.21 mg TE/g; ABTS: 193.48 mg TE/g; CUPRAC: 143.68; FRAP: 123.86 mg TE/g). The ethanol extract also showed significant inhibition of BChE (15.69 mg GALAE/g). This highlights their potential for future research into applications in health and medicine, where they could offer valuable therapeutic benefits.
