Self-standardizing cognitive profile based on gardner's multiple intelligence theory

There are different theories to estimate cognitive abilities. Gardner proposed a model, where intelligence is defined by multiple fields instead of using one specific number. However, the characterization and automated evaluation of these fields are still open issues. If we can make standalone measurements in separate intelligence fields, the numerical modeling of the competencies is possible. Observing the cognitive abilities of children can lead us to an optimized learning experience in performance and engagement. Our aim is to automatically match problem sets and intelligence fields in order to achieve a faster and deeper learning experience. The amount of data to be collected makes the automation of this process a focus point of these studies. In this paper we present an automatic cognitive profiling system with the help of smart devices and AdaptEd - an adaptive educational gaming framework. With the presented system the learning methods and tasks can be fine-tuned, and a personalized and more effective learning environment can be achieved.
Exploring Dynamics and Semantics of User Interests for User Modeling on Twitter for Link Recommendations

User modeling for individual users on the Social Web plays an important role and is a fundamental step for personalization as well as recommendations. Recent studies have proposed different user modeling strategies considering various dimensions such as temporal dynamics and semantics of user interests. Although previous work proposed different user modeling strategies considering the temporal dynamics of user interests, there is a lack of comparative studies on those methods and therefore the comparative performance over each other is unknown. In terms of semantics of user interests, background knowledge from DBpedia has been explored to enrich user interest profiles so as to reveal more information about users. However, it is still unclear to what extent different types of information from DBpedia contribute to the enrichment of user interest profiles.
 In this paper, we propose user modeling strategies which use Concept Frequency - Inverse Document Frequency (CF-IDF) as a weighting scheme and incorporate either or both of the dynamics and semantics of user interests. To this end, we first provide a comparative study on different user modeling strategies considering the dynamics of user interests in previous literature to present their comparative performance. In addition, we investigate different types of information (i.e., categories, classes and connected entities via various properties) for entities from DBpedia and the combination of them for extending user interest profiles. Finally, we build our user modeling strategies incorporating either or both of the best-performing methods in each dimension. Results show that our strategies outperform two baseline strategies significantly in the context of link recommendations on Twitter.
Fuzzy-controlled Li-ion battery charge system with active state-of-charge controller

A fuzzy-controlled active state-of-charge controller (FC-ASCC) for improving the charging behavior of a lithium–ion (Li–ion) battery is proposed. The proposed FC-ASCC is designed to replace the general constant-voltage charging mode by two kinds of modes: sense and charge. A fuzzy-controlled algorithm is built with the predicted charger performance to program the charging trajectory faster and to remain the charge operation in a proposed safe-charge area (SCA). A modeling work is conducted for analyzing and describing the Li–ion battery in charging process. A three-dimensional Y-mesh diagram for describing the charging trajectories of the proposed FC charger is simulated. A prototype of a Li–ion battery charger with FC-ASCC is simulated and realized to assess the predicted charging performance. Experiment shows that the charging speed of the proposed FC charger compared with the general one increases about 23% and the charger can safely work in the SCA.
Pedestrian Inattention Blindness While Playing Pokémon Go as an Emerging Health-Risk Behavior: A Case Report

Cases of trauma resulting from the use of mobile phones while driving motor vehicles have become quite common in recent years. Road injuries incurred by people playing video games on mobile phones (or other media devices) while walking have also become a cause for concern. Pokémon Go has been the world's most popular game since it was launched in July 2016, with more than 15 million players trying to catch all Pokémon available in the game; however, the case detailed here is the first reported accident in the medical literature caused by a pedestrian distracted by the game while crossing a street.



We aim to provide additional information on the innovative nature of distractions that generate risks in road-users, and to explore the underreporting of pedestrian-motor vehicle collisions due to mobile device usage.



We included in this case report a 25-year-old male who suddenly crossed a road while playing Pokémon Go and was hit by a van, reporting several injuries and being assisted by the Emergency Medical Service of our hospital (Padova, Italy). The patient's history, the circumstances in which the collision happened, imaging data, and clinical course information were recorded per our hospital's privacy policy.



The patient hit by the van was playing Pokémon Go on his mobile phone while crossing a street, despite red traffic lights, which he did not notice due to of the distraction induced by the game.



Mobile videogames that imply movement (ie, walking, running, cycling) to play are an effective way to improve physical activity practice, especially in adolescents and young adults. Nevertheless, cases like the one presented here point out that these games could pose a significant risk to users who play while walking, cycling, or driving in unsafe areas such as city streets, because players become distracted and may ignore surrounding hazards. Comprehensive, multilevel interventions are needed to reduce accidents caused by distraction, and to stress findings on the positive and negative effects of video games, which are becoming a source of public health concern. Health care providers should be aware of their chief role in these possible prevention strategies, based on their direct interactions with road incident victims.
Sustainable, effective implementation of a surgical preprocedural checklist: an "attestation" format for all operating team members.

Adoption ofa preprocedural pause (PPP) associated with a checklist and a team briefing has been shown to improve teamwork function in operating rooms (ORs) and has resulted in improved outcomes. The format of the World Health Organization Safe Surgery Saves Lives checklist has been used as a template for a PPP. Performing a PPP, described as a "time-out," is one of the three principal components, along with a preprocedure verification process and marking the procedure site, of the Joint Commission's Universal Protocol for Preventing Wrong Site, Wrong Procedure, Wrong Person Surgery. However, if the surgeon alone leads the pause, its effectiveness may be decreased by lack of input from other operating team members.



In this study, the PPP was assessed to measure participation and input from operating team members. On the basis of low participation levels, the pause was modified to include an attestation from each member of the team.



Preliminary analysis of our surgeon-led pause revealed only 54% completion of all items, which increased to 97% after the intervention. With the new format, operating team members stopped for the pause in 96% of cases, compared with 78% before the change. Operating team members introduced themselves in 94% of cases, compared with 44% before the change. Follow-up analysis showed sustained performance at 18 months after implementation.



A preprocedural checklist format in which each member of the operating team provides a personal attestation can improve pause compliance and may contribute to improvements in the culture of teamwork within an OR. Successful online implementation of a PPP, which includes participation by all operating team members, requires little or no additional expense and only minimal formal coaching outside working situations.
Evaluation of a Feedback Algorithm inspired by Quantum Detection for Dynamic Search Tasks

In this paper we investigate the effectiveness of Relevance Feedback algorithms inspired by Quantum Detection in the context of the Dynamic Domain track. Documents and queries are represented as vectors; the query vector is projected into the subspace spanned by the eigenvector which maximizes the distance between the distribution of quantum probability of relevance and the distribution of quantum probability of non-relevance. When relevant documents are present in the feedback set, the algorithm performs Explicit RF exploiting evidence gathered from relevant passages; if all the documents in the top retrieved are judged as non-relevant, Pseudo RF is performed.
Improving search engines by query clustering

search engine queries whose aim is to identify groups of queries used to search for similar information on the Web. The framework is based on a novel term vector model of queries that integrates user selections and the content of selected documents extracted from the logs of a search engine. The query representation obtained allows us to treat query clustering similarly to standard document clustering. We study the application of the clustering framework to two problems: relevance ranking boosting and query recommendation. Finally, we evaluate with experiments the effectiveness of our approach.
Secure file storage in cloud computing using hybrid cryptography algorithm

Now a day's cloud computing is used in many areas like industry, military colleges etc to storing huge amount of data. We can retrieve data from cloud on request of user. To store data on cloud we have to face many issues. To provide the solution to these issues there are n number of ways. Cryptography and steganography techniques are more popular now a day's for data security. Use of a single algorithm is not effective for high level security to data in cloud computing. In this paper we have introduced new security mechanism using symmetric key cryptography algorithm and steganography. In this proposed system AES, blowfish, RC6 and BRA algorithms are used to provide block wise security to data. All algorithm key size is 128 bit. LSB steganography technique is introduced for key information security. Key information contains which part of file is encrypted using by which algorithm and key. File is splited into eight parts. Each and every part of file is encrypted using different algorithm. All parts of file are encrypted simultaneously with the help of multithreading technique. Data encryption Keys are inserted into cover image using LSB technique. Stego image is send to valid receiver using email. For file decryption purpose reverse process of encryption is applied.
Stimulating Online Reviews by Combining Financial Incentives and Social Norms

In hopes of motivating consumers to provide larger volumes of useful reviews, many retailers offer financial incentives. Here, we explore an alternative approach, social norms, wherein we inform people about the volume of reviews authored by peers. We test the effectiveness of using financial incentives, social norms, and a combination of both strategies. In two randomized experiments, one in the field conducted in partnership with a large online clothing retailer based in China, and a second on Amazon Mechanical Turk, we compare the effectiveness of each strategy at stimulating online reviews in larger numbers and of greater length. We find that financial incentives are more effective at inducing larger volumes of reviews, but the reviews that result are not particularly lengthy, whereas social norms have a greater effect on the length of reviews. Importantly, we show that the combination of financial incentives and social norms yields the greatest overall benefit, motivating reviews in greater numbers and of greater length. We further assess the treatment induced self-selection and sentiment bias by triangulating the experimental results with findings from an observational study.
Optimization of 6Slots-7Poles & 12Slots-14Poles flux-switching permanent magnet machines for plug-in HEV

Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is independent of the internal combustion engine but acts as the auxiliary unit mostly on the electric drive system. Main while, the Flux-switching permanent magnet machine (FSPMM) has been studied in terms of structure with its operation principle been analyzed. To achieve a higher torque with a corresponding high power density and lower torque ripple, FSPMM with 6Slots-7Poles and 12Slots-14Poles, according investigations, are optimized based on their objective functions. Moreover, it analyzes several typical performance curves, such as cogging torque, flux linkage and back-EMF. Finally, the torque and corresponding power, efficiency and rotor mechanical strength analysis of optimized designed are obtained. The results indicate that FSPMM is a viable candidate for PHEV and also has good mechanical robustness with strong flux-weakening ability.
Positron-Emission Tomography and Personality Disorders

This study used positron-emission tomography to examine cerebral metabolic rates of glucose (CMRG) in 17 patients with DSM III-R diagnoses of personality disorder. Within the group of 17 personality disorder patients, there was a significant inverse correlation between a life history of aggressive impulse difficulties and regional CMRG in the frontal cortex of the transaxial plane approximately 40 mm above the canthomeatal line (CML) (r = −.56, p = 0.17). Diagnostic groups included antisocial (n = 6), borderline (n = 6), dependent (n = 2), and narcissistic (n = 3). Regional CMRG in the six antisocial patients and in the six borderline patients was compared to a control group of 43 subjects using an analysis of covariance with age and sex as covariates. In the borderline personality disorder group, there was a significant decrease in frontal cortex metabolism in the transaxial plane approximately 81 mm above the CML and a significant increase in the transaxial plane approximately 53 mm above the CML (F[1,45] = 8.65, p = .005; and F[1,45] = 7.68, p = .008, respectively).
Achievement goals in sport: the development and validation of the Perception of Success Questionnaire.

Recent research into motivation and achievement behaviour in sport has focused on achievement goal theory. This theory states that two goal orientations manifest themselves in achievement contexts and impact on the motivation process. These two goals have been defined as 'task' and 'ego' goal orientations. This paper traces the development of the Perception of Success Questionnaire as a measure of achievement goals developed specifically for the sport context. The early development of the questionnaire is documented, in which the scale was shortened from the initial 29 to the current 12 question format. We demonstrate that task and ego goals are orthogonal, internal reliabilities for the orientations are high, with strong construct and concurrent validity. We conclude by reporting results from two recent confirmatory factor analyses that were conducted on the Children's and Adult versions of the questionnaire; these results show the Perception of Success Questionnaire to be a reliable and valid instrument to measure achievement goal orientations in sport.
Coordination of executive functions in monolingual and bilingual children.

Two groups of 8-year-old children who were monolingual or bilingual completed a complex classification task in which they made semantic judgments on stimuli that were presented either visually or auditorily. The task requires coordinating a variety of executive control components, specifically working memory, inhibition, and shifting. When each of the visual and auditory tasks was presented alone, performance was comparable for children in the two groups. Combining the two modalities into a dual-task paradigm made the task more difficult, and on this combined task bilingual children maintained better accuracy than monolingual children, especially on the visual task. The results are interpreted in terms of the enhanced ability of bilingual children to coordinate the executive control components required in performing this complex task.
ArnetMiner: An Expertise Oriented Search System for Web Community

Expertise Oriented Search aims at providing comprehensive analysis and mining for people from distributed sources. In this paper, we give an overview of the expertise oriented search system (ArnetMiner). The system addresses several key research issues in extraction and mining of a researcher social network. The system is in operation on the internet for more than one year and receives accesses from about 1,500 users per month. Feedbacks from users and system logs indicate that users consider the system can really help people to find and share information in the web community.
A case-control study of anatomic changes resulting from sexual abuse.

Our goal was to identify vulvar and hymenal characteristics associated with sexual abuse among female children between the ages of 3 and 8 years.



Using a case-control study design, we examined and photographed the external genitalia of 192 prepubertal children with a history of penetration and 200 children who denied prior abuse. Bivariate analyses were conducted by chi(2), the Fisher exact test, and the Student t test to assess differences in vulvar and hymenal features between groups.



Vaginal discharge was observed more frequently in abused children (P =.01). No difference was noted in the percentage of abused versus nonabused children with labial agglutination, increased vascularity, linea vestibularis, friability, a perineal depression, or a hymenal bump, tag, longitudinal intravaginal ridge, external ridge, band, or superficial notch. Furthermore, the mean number of each of these features per child did not differ between groups. A hymenal transection, perforation, or deep notch was observed in 4 children, all of whom were abused.



The genital examination of the abused child rarely differs from that of the nonabused child. Thus legal experts should focus on the child's history as the primary evidence of abuse.
The adoption of hyped technologies: a qualitative study

The introduction of new consumer technology is often greeted with declarations that the way people conduct their lives will be changed instantly. In some cases, this might create hype surrounding a specific technology. This article investigates the adoption of hyped technology, a special case that is absent in the adoption literature. The study employs a consumer research perspective, specifically the theory of consumption values (TCV), to understand the underlying motives for adopting the technology. In its original form, TCV entails five values that influence consumer behavior: functional, social, epistemic, emotional and conditional. The values catch the intrinsic and extrinsic motives influencing behavior. Using a qualitative approach that includes three focus groups and 60 one-on-one interviews, the results of the study show that emotional, epistemic and social values influence the adoption of hyped technologies. Contrary to expectations, functional value, which is similar to the widely used information system constructs of perceived usefulness and relative advantage, has little impact on the adoption of technologies that are surrounded with significant hype. Using the findings of the study, this article proposes a model for investigating and understanding the adoption of hyped technologies. This article contributes to the literature by (1) focusing on the phenomenon of hyped technology, (2) introducing TCV, a consumer research-based theoretical framework, to enhance the understanding of technology adoption, and (3) proposing a parsimonious model explaining the adoption of hyped technology.
A Portable SDR Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access Testbed for 5G Networks

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is envisioned to be one of the promising radio access techniques for the fifth generation (5G) mobile networks. In this paper, a portable NOMA testbed based on software defined radio (SDR) is developed by transporting our NOMA system to mini personal computers (PCs). Moreover, the NOMA testbed has been enhanced from 5 MHz bandwidth to 10 MHz bandwidth. As the computation complexity grows higher with the increase of system bandwidth, the portable NOMA testbed is not competent to fully demonstrate the performance of our NOMA system due to the limitation of mini PC. For a better understanding of the NOMA testbed, the system architecture and scenario are introduced in brief. Then, the implementation of NOMA transceiver and the protocol stack are described separately. Finally, a series of experiments are carried out to evaluate its performance loss compared with the original NOMA system based on desktops. The experimental results indicate that the performance of processors may be a short slab for the development of portable SDR-based testbeds towards 5G networks.
Agile Modeling, Agile Software Development, and Extreme Programming: The State of Research

While there are many claims for the successful use of extreme programming (XP) and agile modeling (AM), and the proponents can often be vocal in the extreme regarding their supposed benefits, research evidence supporting proponents‘ claims is somewhat lacking. Currently, the only research appearing to investigate the phenomena consists of two prominent streams. A small number of case studies and experience reports that generally promote the success of XP in various development environments, and a well-established stream of research into pair programming has generated results that in part support the idea of XP. Research into AM appears to be even more sparse than that for XP. Case studies, comparative analyses, and experience reports comprise the majority of the research in the area, while very few empirical research efforts have been conducted. This article reviews the state of research in XP and AM, and recommends areas that could benefit from further study. Since nearly all empirical XP research relates to pair programming, a closer look into the unstudied XP core practices would be beneficial, although interaction between related core practice areas could confound such efforts. It might also be possible to group related core XP concepts and study the groups individually. Finally, there are those who claim that XP and AM, or even agility in general, are really nothing more than a repackaging of old concepts. This claim needs to be investigated.
A Flexible AC Distribution System Device for a Microgrid

This paper presents a flexible ac distribution system device for microgrid applications. The device aims to improve the power quality and reliability of the overall power distribution system that the microgrid is connected to. The control design employs a new model predictive control algorithm which allows faster computational time for large power systems by optimizing the steady-state and the transient control problems separately. Extended Kalman filters are also employed for frequency tracking and to extract the harmonic spectra of the grid voltage and the load currents in the microgrid. The design concept is verified through different test case scenarios to demonstrate the capability of the proposed device and the results obtained are discussed.
