Pre- and post-processes for automatic colorization using a fully convolutional network

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Automatic colorization is a significant task especially for Anime industry. An original trace image to be colorized contains not only outlines but also boundary contour lines of shadows and highlight areas. Unfortunately, these lines tend to decrease the consistency among all images. Thus, this paper provides a method for a cleaning pre-process of anime dataset to improve the prediction quality of a fully convolutional network, and a refinement post-process to enhance the output of the network.
Aquaculture of the Sciaenidae Family: Main Species Cultured Worldwide and Emerging Species in Latin America, Offering New Opportunities for Aquaculture Diversification

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Sciaenidae is the family of marine fish that has the highest aquaculture growth and production in the world. In this study, the global production, historical characteristics, biological aspects, and aquaculture technologies used for the Sciaenid species with the highest aquaculture production were compiled and analyzed to determine the success factors and bottlenecks that favored these species aquaculture development. This study also presents the state of technological aquaculture development in Sciaenid species in Latin America. The principal Sciaenid aquaculture species are large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea), red drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) and meagre (Argyrosomus regius), which together contribute 99.9% of the global aquaculture production of Sciaenid species. The aquaculture success of these three species is attributed to their suitable biology for aquaculture, high consumer demand, good market prices, government support, and prior empirical and/or scientific knowledge with other species that was transferrable to Sciaenidae, however, the aquaculture development of these species has not been free of errors. Principal bottlenecks in development include poorly planned marine spatial planning, the introduction of exotic species, the excessive use of fresh seafood-based feeds (especially in China), and inadequate genetic selection programs. In Latin America, eleven Sciaenidae species with biological attributes similar to the three established aquaculture species are being investigated. The technologies for the totoaba (Totoaba macdonaldi) and the Chilean croaker (Cilus giberti) are the most advanced. The technology developed and the positive and negative experiences of the Sciaenid aquaculture industry identified in this review should be considered to assist government decision-making for research and development of aquaculture in the family Sciaenidae.
Titan in Late Northern Summer from JWST and Keck Observations

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Titan is an object of fascination for scientists researching the solar system, as a &#8216;terrestrial-like&#8217; world with active meteorology and fluvial and lacustrine formations based on methane chemistry and condensation. The Cassini-Huygens mission explored Titan extensively from 2004 to 2017, but since that time further observation of its slow seasonal cycle has been possible only via telescopes positioned on or close to the Earth. Titan&#8217;s unique characteristics led to a concerted post-Cassini observational campaign, with many of the most powerful telescopes available to astronomy. In this work we report on observations from 2022 &amp; 2023 with three instruments on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), NIRCam, NIRSpec and MIRI, also in coordination with imaging from Keck II. In November 2022 and July 2023, Titan was the subject of multi-spectral filter imaging with JWST NIRCam and Keck II NIRC2, revealing tropospheric clouds at mid-northern latitudes, in line with climate modeling predictions for this season (late northern summer). In filters sensitive to the upper troposphere, we observed clouds growing and apparently ascending in altitude during a Titan day. JWST NIRSpec spectroscopy yielded for the first time a high resolution (R=2700) spectrum of Titan across the entire near-infrared (1-5 microns) unobscured by telluric absorption. This, among other things, enabled measuring the detailed structure of the CO 4.7 micron non-LTE emission, including the fundamental, the first two overtone bands and two isotopic bands. It is also the first time that CO2 emission has been resolved in the NIR and the first time it has been seen on Titan&#8217;s dayside. &#160;Finally, very sensitive spectroscopy with JWST MIRI in the mid infrared (5-28 microns) confirmed the many stratospheric gases seen by Cassini CIRS, but also added a new detection of methyl (CH3) in the middle atmosphere, a product of methane photochemistry that was expected but not previously seen. We modeled parts of the spectra to find a global mean temperature profile and profiles of minor gases. Soon we hope to extract yet more results from the NIRSpec and MIRI spectra as our understanding of the calibration and modeling progresses. In this presentation we summarize our results to date and describe planned future observations of Titan with JWST and Keck cycles.

The Effects of Audience Knowledge on Message Processing of Editorial Content

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Marketing communications practitioners of modern enterprises recognize that creating mediated messages to audiences is a strategic communication to be leveraged, not simply managed. This study investigates how audiences' knowledge structures affect their message processing of editorial content. A set of laboratory experiments finds support for the proposed hypotheses in the domain of subjective and objective knowledge and message processing of editorial content. While audiences' objective knowledge determines how much elaboration they actually are able to perform, their subjective knowledge facilitates general thoughts. Audiences' knowledge structures direct how they process received messages while objective knowledge rather than subjective knowledge predicts audiences' conation; high levels of objective knowledge have a detrimental impact on audiences' purchase intents.
Improvement of a of quality incident information system in a manufacturing setting

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

[ENGLISH] The present document contents the analysis of the Quality incident information system that is currently implemented on a manufacturing company of the automotive field, FAURECIA Automotive Exteriors, in order to find weaknesses and strenghts on the response process to customer in terms of quality of final product and efficiency when a nonconforming part appears. In order to recognize and point out the steps of the current process that are making inefficient the information system flow, Lean management and Six Sigma principles are applied; those principles had demonstrated to work with high efficiency in companies around the world in the last years, which is why they are the chosen methods to be used. On the way of applying the mentioned methods, RDMAIC analysis is done, where a recognition and definition of current process is described, then variables as time on each step, motion and transport of information are measured in order to be analized and find possible improvements; through this analysis, Lean management tools are integrated, such Value Stream Mapping, 14 Toyota Production principles and Seven wastes. At the end, after doing the analysis, the implementation of a new tool is proposed, which carries out with a modification of current process to make it as efficient as possible; should be noted that a reduction of time of 96,32% could be accomplished with this new process, which is a considerable decrease of response time to client, generating customer fiability and optimizing budget wasting in the company by decreasing reworks or scrap of final product.
Attitudes and Evacuation Behavior of Residents during the Tsunami after the Noto Hanto Earthquake in 2007

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

2007年3月25日に発生した能登半島地震の被災住民である石川県輪島市と志賀町の中学生およびその保護者に対して,地震発生時の意識と行動に関するアンケート調査を行った.あわせて,地震発生以前の災害に対する知識,認識や経験,すなわち防災に対するレディネスを調査し,これと被災時の意識・行動との関係を,被災前後の比較が効果的に行える津波に焦点を当てて分析した.その結果,避難訓練や防災情報などから学んだ内容がとっさの行動として表出したり,直接・間接の被災経験が津波からの適切な避難行動に結びついたりするなど,被災以前のレディネスが適切な被災時の意識・行動の励起を強く規定していることが確認された.その一方,災害に対する警戒感が低かった能登では住民のレディネスは十分ではなかったため,住民の多くが適切な想起や行動が行えなかった課題も浮き彫りとなった.これらを踏まえ,今後の地域防災力強化のためには,学校教育,社会教育などのチャンネルを通じた防災教育の充実と,地域環境に応じた防災へのレディネスの構築が必要であることを指摘した.
Charge Transfer Cross Sections for Dysprosium and Cerium

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Symmetric charge transfer cross sections between singly ionized ions and their parent atoms were measured for dysprosium and cerium in the impact energy range of 100–2000 eV. The primary ion beam was extracted from a laser ion source in which the atoms were ionized by laser resonant photo-ionization. The slow ions produced in the charge transfer reaction and the fast primary ions were detected with Faraday cups. The cross sections were determined from the ratio between the number of ions produced in the charge transfer reaction and that of the primary ion beam. Average values of obtained cross sections were 1.8×10 -14 cm 2 for dysprosium and 0.9×10 -14 cm 2 for cerium in the above energy range. The considerable difference between these values was explained by considering the electronic configurations of related atoms and ions.

Discerning of Antimicrobial Peptides from Whole Genome Sequenced Temperate Fruit Crops

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Antimicrobial peptide sequences from 5 temperate fruit crops (apple, blueberry, peach, raspberry and strawberry) were extracted in-silico. Two methods was used to extract the sequences, homology prediction as well as machine learning prediction using software tools. The extracted possible AMP sequences were analyzed for their physico-chemical properties and then categorized according to the same. All the possible AMP sequences are stored in a categorized worksheet. The data can be carried forward for further computational research or can be synthesized for wet lab works.
High potential of stable carbon sequestration in phytoliths of China's grasslands

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

Abstract Phytolith carbon (C) sequestration plays a key role in mitigating global climate change at a centennial to millennial time scale. However, previous estimates of phytolith‐occluded carbon (PhytOC) storage and potential in China's grasslands have large uncertainties mainly due to multiple data sources. This contributes to the uncertainty in predicting long‐term C sequestration in terrestrial ecosystems using Earth System Models. In this study, we carried out an intensive field investigation (79 sites, 237 soil profiles [0–100 cm], and 61 vegetation assessments) to quantify PhytOC storage in China's grasslands and to better explore the biogeographical patterns and influencing factors. Generally, PhytOC production flux and soil PhytOC density in both the Tibetan Plateau and the Inner Mongolian Plateau had a decreasing trend from the Northeast to the Southwest. The aboveground PhytOC production rate in China's grassland was 0.48 × 10 6 t CO 2 a –1 , and the soil PhytOC storage was 383 × 10 6 t CO 2 . About 45% of soil PhytOC was stored in the deep soil layers (50–100 cm), highlighting the importance of deep soil layers for C stock assessments. Importantly, the Tibetan Plateau had the greatest contribution (more than 70%) to the PhytOC storage in China's grasslands. The results of multiple regression analysis indicated that altitude and soil texture significantly influenced the spatial distribution of soil PhytOC, explaining 78.1% of the total variation. Soil phytolith turnover time in China's grasslands was mainly controlled by climatic conditions, with the turnover time on the Tibetan Plateau being significantly longer than that on the Inner Mongolian Plateau. Our results offer more accurate estimates of the potential for phytolith C sequestration from ecological restoration projects in degraded grassland ecosystems. These estimates are essential to parameterizing and validating global C models.
Tourism Village Management Scenario Based on Stakeholder Dynamics

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This research was conducted to identify the stakeholders involved in the management, analyse the interests, objectives, and potential conflicts that may arise among these stakeholders, and create scenarios based on the analysis conducted to improve the success of Tourism Village management. The MACTOR technique was used to analyse the roles and contributions of the stakeholders, and the MICMAC technique was used to identify factors that influence and are influenced by each stakeholder, which were obtained through interview data, observations, and literature studies. The combination of the MACTOR and MICMAC techniques, as well as the descriptive and quantitative approaches, resulted in the analysis of the main findings of the study, showing the complex dynamics among stakeholders in the management of the Tourism Village. Pokdarwis (Tourism Awareness Group) was found to play a major role in influencing other stakeholders, while the Maros-Pangkep Geosite showed a high dependency on the collaboration of other stakeholders to preserve the karst environment, and investors need to collaborate and coordinate across all stakeholders involved. These findings emphasise the importance of strong coordination and collaboration between stakeholders to ensure sustainable management of tourism villages and avoid conflicts of interest. In the scenarios developed, effective collaboration between the government, local communities, NGOs, tourism businesses, and investors proved to be the key to sustainable tourism village development. This research contributes to the understanding of policy makers, academics, and tourism practitioners on how to identify and analyse interests, alliances, and conflicts among stakeholders in tourism destination management in designing collaborative strategies.

Estimating The Knowledge-Capital Model of the Multinational Enterprise

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

The industrial-organization (IO) approach to international trade (“new trade theory”) has incorporated features of increasing returns to scale, imperfect competition, and product differentiation into traditional general-equilibrium trade models. These new models offer rich predictions about the direction and volume of trade between two countries as functions of industry characteristics (factor intensities, scale economies, product differentiation) interacting with country characteristics (relative size differences, relative endowment differences, and trade costs)…
