Providing Decision Support for Negotiation: The Need for Adding Notions of Fairness to Those of Interests

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

In this article, we address the issue of how to integrate notions of fairness and justice into an interest-based negotiation support system. Even though the issue of power in negotiations is an important one, we do not address it in this article. Instead, we illustrate our ideas in two legal domains in which we have been constructing negotiation decision support systems: plea bargaining and Australian family law mediation. Negotiators have constructed two systems that provide decision support for negotiation. Family Mediator is an extension of the Family Winner system, which advises mediators about potential trade-offs and compensation strategies for divorcing couples. In addition, negotiators have developed a sentencing decision support system that advises upon likely sentences in the Victorian Magistrates Court and facilitates plea bargaining about sentences. This article will discuss the development of these systems.
The “Light Knife” for Gastric Cancer: Photodynamic Therapy

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been used clinically to treat cancer for more than 40 years. Some solid tumors, including esophageal cancer, lung cancer, head and neck cancer, cholangiocarcinoma, and bladder cancer, have been approved for and managed with PDT in many countries globally. Notably, PDT for gastric cancer (GC) has been reported less and is not currently included in the clinical diagnosis and treatment guidelines. However, PDT is a potential new therapeutic modality used for the management of GC, and its outcomes and realization are more and more encouraging. PDT has a pernicious effect on tumors at the irradiation site and can play a role in rapid tumor shrinkage when GC is combined with cardiac and pyloric obstruction. Furthermore, because of its ability to activate the immune system, it still has a specific effect on systemic metastatic lesions, and the adverse reactions are mild. In this Review, we provide an overview of the current application progress of PDT for GC; systematically elaborate on its principle, mechanism, and the application of a new photosensitizer in GC; and focus on the efficacy of PDT in GC and the prospect of combined use with other therapeutic methods to provide a theoretical basis for clinical application.
Speech function mapping of the human brain based on electrocorticography

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Language function mapping has been one of the major concerns for epilepsy surgeries due to individual diversity and the complicated distribution over the cortex.The general linear model(GLM)was used here to analyze the power change of electrocorticograpic(ECoG)signals in the Beta(8—13 Hz)and High gamma(60—90 Hz)bands to obtain dynamic functional mapping for different stages during a single character word reading task.The high temporal resolution of ECoG can distinguish the motor cortex and related language preparing brain area. The mapping results were presented in a custom 3Dvisualization platform for individual brain structures to show more accurate and intuitive activation of the speech areas.Comparison with functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI)demonstrates that this method provides both reliable localization and temporal processing of language functional areas with high gamma responses using ECoG signals with high temporal resolution(300—400ms).
REVIEW ARTICLE The Th17 axis in psoriatic disease: pathogenetic and therapeutic implications

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis represent two paradigmatic conditions characterized by chronic inflam-mation and possibly autoimmunity, despite the absence of known serum autoantibodies. The two diseases, albeit strongly correlated from clinical, genetic, and epidemiog-ical standpoints, manifest significant differences in terms of etiology and pathogenetic mechanisms. Nonetheless, Th17 cells appear crucial to both diseases, and IL23 is the cytokine involved in determining the fate of naive CD4? cells to differentiate into a pathogenic phenotype. This basic experimental observation led to a clear understanding of the immune dysfunction causing psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis but, more importantly, also led to new therapeutic approaches. In recent years, monoclonal antibodies direc-ted to IL12/IL23 (ustekinumab) or IL17 (secukinumab, ixekizumab, brodalumab) are being investigated or have proven to be beneficial for patients with psoriatic disease, thus further supporting the view that Th17 cells play a pivotal role in disease onset and perpetuation. These most recent reports indeed represent significant developments that may allow overcoming the TNFa pathway as the major therapeutic target in chronic inflammation.
Early Design of a Conversational AI Development Platform for Middle Schoolers

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

More young people are interacting with smart conversational agents such as Alexa and Google Assistant. These platforms are extensible, providing, in principle, a compelling opportunity for young users to create and tinker with their own conversational agents. However, to date the interfaces for conversational app development are adult-focused. This paper presents the early design process for AMBY (AI Made by You), which we are building to empower young learners to create their own conversational agents. We first conducted a contextual inquiry with 14 middle school students (aged 11-13) in an AI summer camp, followed by two other usability studies. The system design has been refined after each study. Key features of AMBY include a visual dialogue management panel, testing panel with a diverse avatar, and a voice input modality. AMBY is designed to serve as a pedagogically-robust resource for K-12 AI education and as an engaging and creative way for middle schoolers to explore AI.

Diversifikasi produk Bakso Empal Genton dan Pemanfaatan E-Commerce untuk Meningkatkan Daya Saing Usaha Kecil dan Menengah di Tengah Pandemi Covid 19

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

UMKM Sakinah, Cimahi City, West Java, as a partner in community service activities, is engaged in snack and preserved food products. However, there are two main problems faced. First, currently UMKM do not have superior products that can help increase sales turnover again. Second, the distribution of products affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The marketing area for UMKM Sakinah's products is currently still around Bandung Raya, where sales are made directly and leave goods in other business places, such as cake shops or minimarkets. In the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic, where many tourist attractions, schools, offices and shops were closed causing sales to drop drastically. The solution to overcome this problem is to diversify the products produced by UMKM by providing training on making new research products in the form of instant Bakso Empal Gentong (Baktong) until they are ready to be marketed. The second is product marketing through e-commerce methods in the form of website creation and the use of online marketplaces to expand the market. This community service activity has been able to produce a new superior product that has passed the laboratory test process, market test and is proven to be able to increase sales turnover in the short term. The use of e-commerce has proven to be able to expand the market for UMKM Sakinah products. UMKM Sakinah Kota Cimahi Jawa Barat sebagai mitra kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat bergerak di bidang produk makanan ringan dan awetan. Namun ada dua permasalahan utama yang dihadapi. Pertama, saat ini UMKM belum memiliki produk unggulan yang dapat membantu meningkatkan kembali omset penjualan. Kedua, pendistribusian produk terdampak pandemi COVID 19. Area pemasaran produk UMKM Sakinah saat ini masih di sekitar Bandung Raya, di mana penjualan dilakukan secara langsung dan menitipkan barang di tempat usaha lainnya misalkan toko kue atau minimarket. Pada kondisi pandemi COVID 19, di mana banyak tempat wisata, sekolah, kantor dan toko yang tutup menyebabkan penjualan menurun drastis. Solusi untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut dengan melakukan diversifikasi produk yang dihasilkan oleh UMKM dengan cara memberikan pelatihan pembuatan produk baru hasil penelitian berupa Bakso Empal Gentong (Baktong) instan hingga siap untuk dipasarkan. Kedua adalah pemasaran produk melalui metode e-commerce berupa pembuatan website dan pemanfaatan online marketplace untuk memperluas pasar. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini sudah dapat menghasilkan satu produk unggulan baru yang sudah melewati proses uji laboratorium, uji pasar dan terbukti mampu meningkatkan omset penjualan dalam jangka pendek. Pemanfaatan e-commerce terbukti mampu memperluas pasar produk-produk UMKM Sakinah.
Bi‐objective optimization of the tactical allocation of job types to machines: mathematical modeling, theoretical analysis, and numerical tests

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

Abstract We introduce a tactical resource allocation model for a large aerospace engine system manufacturer aimed at long‐term production planning. Our model identifies the routings a product takes through the factory, and which machines should be qualified for a balanced resource loading, to reduce product lead times. We prove some important mathematical properties of the model that are used to develop a heuristic providing a good initial feasible solution. We propose a tailored approach for our class of problems combining two well‐known criterion space search algorithms, the bi‐directional ε‐constraint method and the augmented weighted Tchebycheff method. A computational investigation comparing solution times for several solution methods is presented for 60 numerical instances.
Western Diet And Exercise Training Increase Mitochondrial Lipid Respiration In Male But Not Female Mice

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

High-fat feeding in mice is a common model to investigate mitochondrial lipid metabolism during diet-induced obesity. Our previous work demonstrates 60% high-fat diet stimulates mitochondrial lipid respiration yet such fat content is higher than a typical western diet (~35% fat with higher sugar). Aerobic exercise training also stimulates mitochondrial lipid respiration, but the interaction with western diet is not clear. PURPOSE: We determined mitochondrial oxidative function in response to western diet in the absence and presence of concurrent exercise training. We hypothesized western diet would induce greater mitochondrial lipid respiration that would be further enhanced with exercise training. METHODS: Male and female C57BL/6J mice (n=5-7 per group for each sex) ate either western diet (WD) or low-fat diet (LFD) for 4 weeks, with a group of WD mice randomized to perform concurrent treadmill training (WD+Ex). At week 4, dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry was used to measure body composition and in-vivo substrate oxidation was assessed using metabolic cage indirect calorimetry. Ex-vivo mitochondrial oxidation was measured via high-resolution respirometry using isolated mitochondria from quadriceps muscles collected 36-hours after final exercise session (or rest). Respiration protocols included lipid (octanoyl-carnitine+malate) and non-lipid (glutamate+succinate) substrates. RESULTS: Among sedentary mice, WD had higher body weight and fat mass than LFD (P<0.0001), but only in males. WD had lower in-cage respiratory exchange ratio than LFD (P<0.05) regardless of sex, indicating greater whole-body reliance on lipids. In males, WD+Ex stimulated mitochondrial lipid respiration more so than WD alone (P<0.05). Females had no significant changes in mitochondrial lipid respiration. Non-lipid supported mitochondrial respiration was not significantly altered by WD or WD+Ex regardless of sex. CONCLUSION: In agreement with our hypothesis, WD stimulated lipid-specific mitochondrial respiration that further increased with Ex, but only in male mice. There were apparent sex differences such that females were protected against WD-induced weight gain alongside limited changes in mitochondrial lipid respiration.
Application of Kalman filtering to the calibration and alignment of inertial navigation systems

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Problem areas and practical solutions in the development of large-dimension Kalman filters for the calibration and alignment of complex inertial guidance systems are discussed. The basic vector attitude error equation is augmented by gyro and accelerometer unknown parameters. The parameter estimation problem is converted into a state estimation problem. A complete approach and description of the dual extended Kalman filter, one for accelerometers and one for gyros, is given. To reduce computational load, a technique of prefiltering (data compression or measurement averaging) has been implemented in the mechanization with very little degradation in the performance of the filter. The models of gyros and accelerometers used are described in detail. A technique for generating parameter excitation trajectories which provides observability of instrument parameters has been developed by maximizing the information matrix. A typical set of results for a simulator data set for parameter estimates and innovation sequences is given to show the performance, convergence, accuracy, and stability of the filter estimates.< >
Region Similarity Representation Learning

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

We present Region Similarity Representation Learning (ReSim), a new approach to self-supervised representation learning for localization-based tasks such as object detection and segmentation. While existing work has largely focused on solely learning global representations for an entire image, ReSim learns both regional representations for localization as well as semantic image-level representations. ReSim operates by sliding a fixed-sized window across the overlapping area between two views (e.g., image crops), aligning these areas with their corresponding convolutional feature map regions, and then maximizing the feature similarity across views. As a result, ReSim learns spatially and semantically consistent feature representation throughout the convolutional feature maps of a neural network. A shift or scale of an image region, e.g., a shift or scale of an object, has a corresponding change in the feature maps; this allows downstream tasks to leverage these representations for localization. Through object detection, instance segmentation, and dense pose estimation experiments, we illustrate how ReSim learns representations which significantly improve the localization and classification performance compared to a competitive MoCo-v2 baseline: $+2.7$ AP$^{\text{bb}}_{75}$ VOC, $+1.1$ AP$^{\text{bb}}_{75}$ COCO, and $+1.9$ AP$^{\text{mk}}$ Cityscapes. Code and pre-trained models are released at: \url{https://github.com/Tete-Xiao/ReSim}

Relation between Behavior and Result in Pair Programming: Talk and Work Leads to Success

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Pair programming , a programming technique conducted by two programmers work together at one work station, has been adopted for learning programming. Although it is known to be effective in various aspects, micro observation of the learning activity, collaboration, has yet to be conducted in relation to the outcome. In this study, behavior in pair programming learning was investigated in terms of verbal communication and programming action, and was compared in relation to the success of problem-solving. Findings are that, in the successful cases, 1) the learners took programming actions more frequently, and 2) the learners took more programming actions immediately after the dialogue. From this, it is suggested that closely-knit dialogue and action can be an indicator of successful problem-solving, and the findings can be applied to a collaborative learning support systems.
Main Contributors to the Baseball Bat Head Speed Considering the Generating Factor of Motion-dependent Term

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Motion-dependent term (MDT), which consists of centrifugal force, Coriolis force and gyro moment expressed in the equation of motion for a multi-link system, plays significant roles in the generation of tip speed in a high speed swing motion. A phenomenon caused by the MDT is usually called as "whip-like effect" and "kinetic chain". Since the baseball batting is one of high speed swing motion manipulating a bat by both hands, it is important to make clear the generating factor of MDT and main contributors to the generation of bat head speed. The purpose of this study was to quantify main contributors to the bat head speed considering the generating factor of MDT. The whole-body segments with bat were modelled as a system of sixteen-rigid linked segments. The equation of motion for the system was obtained by considering anatomical constraint axes at joints and modelling errors. A recurrence formula with respect to the generalized velocity vector consisting of linear and angular velocity vectors of all segments was derived. Five collegiate baseball players, participated as subjects, hit a teed ball as strong as possible. The kinematic and kinetic data were measured with the motion capture system with 3 force platforms and an instrumented bat. The results indicates that the abduction and extension torques at the knob-side shoulder joint and the forward rotation torque at the torso joint are the main positive contributors to the generation of bat head speed among the participants.
ENGAGING STUDENTS IN ONLINE READING GAMES: A STUDENT-CENTERED LEARNING PERSPECTIVE

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

2020 might be unforgettable for teachers since they need to face the challenging teaching situation in the ruinous Covid-19 pandemic. To deliver the lesson, teachers need varied online applications to reach their students. Furthermore, they need more online media to ensure the students grasp what they need to achieve as a learning outcome. Online games are used in this study as the supportive learning tool after lecturing session about Reading Strategies. Furthermore, it is the tool to engage students to practice the student-centered learning so that they will be autonomous learners. There are four games used in this study i.e. Main Idea Millionaire, Main Idea Storm, Context Clues, and Scanning Skimming games, which are provided in three different websites. This is a qualitative phenomenological study expecting to capture details and experience of students and then to describe the meaning of the findings based on the subjects’ individual experience. The study was conducted in Universitas Islam Negeri Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang, exactly at Architectural Engineering Department. Based on the findings, students thought that online reading games helped them to visualize the context of particular texts because of its good animation and sound effects. Students, in teacher’s evaluation, became more active in engaging themselves in the class discussion after having several activities of playing the online reading games. They said that they could easily play the games over and over anytime. This study proves that the employed online games can boost students’ confidence and encourage them to be active in the teaching and learning situation.
Adenosine Stimulates Human Sperm Motility via A2 Receptors

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Abstract The effects of adenosine and its analogues on human sperm motility were studied using a transmembrane migration method. Specific binding sites for adenosine in human sperm were also investigated. Adenosine and 5′-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (NECA) stimulated human sperm motility with similar efficacies and the maximal amplitudes of motility increases were both about 70%. 3,7-Dimethyl-1-propargylxanthine (DMPX), a potent A2 antagonist, competitively antagonized NECA-induced motility stimulation. Successively higher concentrations of DMPX shifted the dose-response curve of NECA to the right in a nearly parallel fashion. Dipyridamole, an inhibitor of adenosine uptake, does not reduce the ability of adenosine to stimulate human sperm motility. In radioligand-binding studies, adenosine A1 selective analogues, cyclopentyl-1,3-dipropylxanthine and 1-methyl-2-phenylethyl adenosine, have little competitive effect on [3H]NECA binding in human sperm membrane. These results provide evidence that adenosine enhances human sperm motility via adenosine A2 receptors on the surface of sperm membranes.
The Effect of Destination Attachment and It's Antecedents on Des-tination Loyalty

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The aim of the research was to investigate the relationship between destination attractiveness, satisfaction, attachment and destination loyalty from an integrated point of view. For this purpose, the relevant literature has been examined and a model has been developed. In order to test the developed model, domestic tourists who visited Eskişehir between April and May 2017 were reached by convenience sampling method and 389 questionnaires were evaluated. After the analysis, the developed model was tested and statistically significant and positive correlations were found between the variables of destination attractiveness, satisfaction, attachment and destination loyalty. This research defines the antecedents which have an important place in the formation of loyalty and attachment of tourists. Also, the direct and indirect effects of these antecedents on the formation of loyalty are revealed. A series of proposals are presented in the direction of these effects.
