Media Centers offer an opportunity to diversify optional delivery methods. Coupled with the idea of multiple intelligences – different ways of learning, I was able to put into practice an old strategy into play – offer within the same classroom different ways to learn the same lesson. The Media Center offers the opportunity to use different learning stations with three different smart boards, and a fourth station to generate and deliver lessons using technology as well as some students want – a low technology approach. Innovative ideas such as flipping – changing homework into class time activities and classroom activities into homework provide a great opportunity to enhance student success. Optional grading opportunities present themselves such as using the textbook and the test as learning tools and strategy as a by-product of this learning approach. A demonstration of this model and the student success results will be presented.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) can roughly be categorized into two streams, knowledge driven and data driven both of which have their own advantages. Incorporating knowledge into Deep Neural Networks (DNN), that are purely data driven, can potentially improve the overall performance of the system. This paper presents such a fusion scheme, DeepEX, that combines these seemingly parallel streams of AI, for multi-step time-series forecasting problems. DeepEX achieves this in a way that merges best of both worlds along with a reduction in the amount of data required to train these models. This direction has been explored in the past for single step forecasting by opting for a residual learning scheme. We analyze the shortcomings of this simple residual learning scheme and enable DeepEX to not only avoid these shortcomings but also scale to multi-step prediction problems. DeepEX is tested on two commonly used time series forecasting datasets, CIF2016 and NN5, where it achieves competitive r...

K-systems analysis is a generalization of reconstructability analysis (RA), where any general, complete multivariate system (g-system) can be transformed into an isomorphic, dimensionless system (a K-system) that has sufficient properties to be analyzed using probabilistic RA algorithms. In particular, a g-system consists o f a set of states formed from a complete combination of the variables assigned specific values from a finite set of possible values and an associated system function value. The gsystem must be complete in that all possible states must have an associated system function value. K-systems analysis has been applied to a variety of systems, but many real-world systems consist o f data that is incomplete. Impediments in real-world systems have been previously identified as state contradictions, data scattering and missing data [JONE 85d]. The problem o f state contradictions has been adequately addressed, but while techniques for the resolution of data scattering and m...

Combining easy-to-use parallelism, portability and ef-ciency is a very hard task when traditional programming models are applied to networks of workstations. Even if standard message-passing libraries allow to write code that runs on various machines (code portabil-ity), the parallel application risks to be ineecient on any other platform for which a diierent domain decomposition would be the best. If we want a parallel application to be portable with eeciency (performance portability) on heterogeneous and nondedicated distributed platforms, the best domain decomposition and communication pattern cannot be chosen during implementation. In this paper, we describe the new architecture of the Dame system that hides to the programmer many details of the actual computing platform, and makes programs self-adaptable to the platform without additional eeorts to the parallelization itself.

In response to recent directives to promote quality energy efficient buildings throughout Europe, the EU funded Build UP Skills Ireland (BUSI) project launched a national skills gap analysis of the construction sector in 2011. Generally, the gap that was identified was one of knowledge rather than skills. However, this knowledge is fundamental for the successful implementation of low energy buildings. The BUSI analysis also found that the majority of trainers of construction related crafts lacked the experience and knowledge on the implementation of energy efficient buildings. Consequently, the follow on Build UP Skills QualiBuild project focussed on the development and delivery of a Train the Trainer programme which would address this. The QualiBuild Train the Trainer pilot was designed with a focus on active learning, incorporating a flipped learning model for the delivery of a blended learning programme. This was facilitated by the development of learner manuals for each of the p...

The aim of this work is to develop an application for autonomous landing. We exploit the properties of Deep Reinforcement Learning and Transfer Learning, in order to tackle the problem of planetary landing on unknown or barely-known extra-terrestrial environments by learning good-performing policies, which are transferable from the training environment to other, new environments, without losing optimality. To this end, we model a real-physics simulator, by means of the Bullet/PyBullet library, composed by a lander, defined through the standard ROS/URDF framework and realistic 3D terrain models, for which we adapt official NASA 3D meshes, reconstructed from the data retrieved during missions. Where such model were not available, we reconstruct the terrain from mission imagery - generally SAR imagery. In this setup, we train a Deep Reinforcement Learning model - using DDPG - to autonomous land on the lunar environment. Moreover, we perform transfer learning on the Mars and Titan envir...

A local area network (LAN) is a computer network within a small geographical area such as a home, school, computer laboratory, office building or group of buildings. A LAN is composed of interconnected workstations and personal computers which are each capable of accessing and sharing data and devices, such as printers, scanners and data storage devices, anywhere on the LAN. LANs are characterized by higher communication and data transfer rates and the lack of any need for leased communication lines. Communication between remote parties can be achieved through a process called Networking, involving the connection of computers, media and networking devices. When we talk about networks, we need to keep in mind three concepts, distributed processing, network criteria and network structure. The purpose of this Network is to design a Local Area Network (LAN) for a BAEC (Bangladesh Atomic Energy Commission) Head Quarter and implement security measures to protect network resources and syst...

The cleft lip and palate (CLP) speech intelligibility is distorted due to the deformation in their articulatory system. For addressing the same, a few previous works perform phoneme specific modification in CLP speech. In CLP speech, both the articulation error and the nasalization distorts the intelligibility of a word. Consequently, modification of a specific phoneme may not always yield in enhanced entire word-level intelligibility. For such cases, it is important to identify and isolate the phoneme specific error based on the knowledge of acoustic events. Accordingly, the phoneme specific error modification algorithms can be exploited for transforming the specified errors and enhance the wordlevel intelligibility. Motivated by that, in this work, we combine some of salient phoneme specific enhancement approaches and demonstrate their effectiveness in improving the word-level intelligibility of CLP speech. The enhanced speech samples are evaluated using subjective and objective e...

In the last twenty years, many different approaches to deal with Computer-Interpretable clinical Guidelines (CIGs) have been developed, each one proposing its own representation formalism (mostly based on the Task-Network Model) execution engine. We propose META-GLARE a shell for easily defining new CIG systems. Using META-GLARE, CIG system designers can easily define their own systems (basically by defining their representation language), with a minimal programming effort. META-GLARE is thus a flexible and powerful vehicle for research about CIGs, since it supports easy and fast prototyping of new CIG systems.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficient and reconstructed knees display altered biomechanics during gait. Identifying significant gait changes is important for understanding normal and ACL function and is typically performed by statistical approaches. This paper focuses on the development of an explainable machine learning (ML) empowered methodology to: (i) identify important gait kinematic, kinetic parameters and quantify their contribution in the diagnosis of ACL injury and (ii) investigate the differences in sagittal plane kinematics and kinetics of the gait cycle between ACL deficient, ACL reconstructed and healthy individuals. For this aim, an extensive experimental setup was designed in which three-dimensional ground reaction forces and sagittal plane kinematic as well as kinetic parameters were collected from 151 subjects. The effectiveness of the proposed methodology was evaluated using a comparative analysis with eight well-known classifiers. Support Vector Machines were...

In this paper I measure first year student Facebook usage as part of a broader PhD study into the influence of social media usage on the success of students in higher education. A total of 906 students were asked to complete 3 surveys on Facebook usage with their peers, for two consecutive years (2011-2012 and 2012-2013). The different purposes for Facebook usage, in addition to whether or not students used (self-created) Facebook-groups, were measured and the relationship between the use of pages compared to the purpose of Facebook usage. This resulted in significant correlations between the purpose of Facebook usage and the use of different pages, as well as correlations between the purpose and use of different pages. This study hereby explores the variances in student Facebook usage and provides valuable insight into the potential value of Facebook for students in an educational setting, without the interference of teachers. It is also the next logical step in revising existing i...

Human excellences such as intelligence, morality, and consciousness are investigated by philosophers as well as artificial intelligence researchers. One excellence that has not been widely discussed by AI researchers is practical wisdom, the highest human excellence, or the highest, seventh, stage in Dreyfus’s model of skill acquisition. In this paper, I explain why artificial wisdom matters and how artificial wisdom is possible (in principle and in practice) by responding to two philosophical challenges for building artificial wisdom systems. The result is a conceptual framework that guides future research on creating artificial wisdom.

When a computer-based tool or application is used to carry out a specific task in a learning situation—that is, it is used for learning—more effectively or efficiently one speaks of learning with the tool or application. When, possibly, that same tool or application is used to enhance the way a learner works and thinks, and as such has effects that reach further than the learning situation in which it is used, then one speaks of learning from the tool or application. This article concentrates on the latter. It zooms in on the use of mindtools in education—computer programs and applications that facilitate meaningful professional thinking and working—because this is the epitome of learning from ICT. Mindtools and cognitive tools help users represent what they know as they transform information into knowledge and are used to engage in, and facilitate, critical thinking and higher order learning. These tools can be as simple as email and or discussion lists and as complicated as argume...

High prevalence of mental illness and the need for effective mental health care, combined with recent advances in AI, has led to an increase in explorations of how the field of machine learning (ML) can assist in the detection, diagnosis and treatment of mental health problems. ML techniques can potentially offer new routes for learning patterns of human behavior; identifying mental health symptoms and risk factors; developing predictions about disease progression; and personalizing and optimizing therapies. Despite the potential opportunities for using ML within mental health, this is an emerging research area, and the development of effective ML-enabled applications that are implementable in practice is bound up with an array of complex, interwoven challenges. Aiming to guide future research and identify new directions for advancing development in this important domain, this article presents an introduction to, and a systematic review of, current ML work regarding psycho-socially ...

Objective: The objective of this paper is to highlight the state-of-the-art machine learning (ML) techniques in computational docking. The use of smart computational methods in the life cycle of drug design is relatively a recent development that has gained much popularity and interest over the last few years. Central to this methodology is the notion of computational docking which is the process of predicting the best pose (orientation + conformation) of a small molecule (drug candidate) when bound to a target larger receptor molecule (protein) in order to form a stable complex molecule. In computational docking, a large number of binding poses are evaluated and ranked using a scoring function. The scoring function is a mathematical predictive model that produces a score that represents the binding free energy, and hence the stability, of the resulting complex molecule. Generally, such a function should produce a set of plausible ligands ranked according to their binding stability along with their binding poses. In more practical terms, an effective scoring function should produce promising drug candidates which can then be synthesized and physically screened using high throughput screening process. Therefore, the key to computer-aided drug design is the design of an efficient highly accurate scoring function (using ML techniques). Methods: The methods presented in this paper is specifically based on ML techniques. Despite many traditional techniques have been proposed, the performance was generally poor. Only in the last few years started the application of the ML technology in the design of scoring functions; and the results have been very promising.
Material: The ML-based techniques are based on various molecular features extracted from the abundance of protein-ligand information in the public molecular databases, e.g., protein data bank bind (PDBbind).
Results: In this paper, we present this paradigm shift elaborating on the main constituent elements of the ML approach to molecular docking along with the state-of-the-art research in this area. For instance, the best random forest (RF)-based scoring function (Li, 2014) on PDBbind v2007 achieves a Pear- son correlation coefficient between the predicted and experimentally deter- mined binding affinities of 0.803 while the best conventional scoring function achieves 0.644 (Cheng, 2009). The best RF-based ranking power (Ashtawy, 2012) ranks the ligands correctly based on their experimentally determined binding affinities with accuracy 62.5% and identifies the top binding ligand with accuracy 78.1%.
Conclusions: We conclude with open questions and potential future research directions that can be pursued in smart computational docking; using molecular features of different nature (geometrical, energy terms, pharmacophore), advanced ML techniques (e.g., deep learning), combining more than one ML models.
Keywords:
machine learning, random forest, support vector machine, drug discovery, computational docking, scoring function, virtual screening, complex binding affinity, ligands ranking accuracy, force field interaction, pharmacophore fingerprint.

The digital disruption is to transform all industries, leading to new business models based on the new technologies. In manufacturing, one model for digital disruption is Industrie 4.0. Proposals for Industrie 4.0 involve the virtualization and vertical and horizontal integration of the value chain, digital services, the digital transformation of products, the digital transformation of production equipment, the digital transformation of factories and the digital transformation of supply chains. The former two are already in place today. This article and its follow-up builds an overview of the pillars of Industrie 4.0 as addressed by the proponents of the model, by consultancy companies, by journal research, and by the customer proposition of Siemens. CapGemeni rate General Electric as a key player in the Industrial Internet in the Digital Revolution, and Siemens is its contestant. This article builds a detailed analysis of Siemens' strategy which covers the steps already made an...

Constructed spaces have the ability to influence the lives of people living in those spaces for good or bad. They have the potential to influence the user's experience. This can be done by choreographing each area in a building in order to give a person different perceptions when going through those areas. We experience any visual frame as we pass through a built space and view it in relation to the neighboring frame. At the same time, we do not simply see them when moving via a space, but even our senses are also engaged in the space perception process. They are driving our front ward motion unintentionally and our unintentional pauses. As we pass through a construction, we see the various components of the building unfold. One needs to decipher the various layers that articulate these spaces in order to address the kinesthetic factor. The order of spaces not only controls the direction of motion and the pattern of motion, but also indicates that an individual pauses or continues. Many experiences are felt because of the sequential emergence of various spaces when going through Indian traditional architecture. These observations are not accidental but are the result of conscious design decisions. But the concept of kinesthetics is ignored as an incidental phenomenon if we focus at contemporary architecture. Architects have some goals that they tackle any project with. Among them, the user experience is typically given the least importance, even though it is the most vital issue. The opportunity for buildings built with sound kinesthetics is to construct a human environment that is conducive to its inhabitants. This research is an attempt to find out the variables by paying close attention to the kinesthetics of a space from which the experience of the users can be improved.

New computer languages have permitted formal verification of much of Mathematics(1,2). I asked to verify informal demonstrations such as in the natural and social sciences, where false conclusions sometimes propagate(4,5). I announce a program for crowd sourced formal verification of informal rational demonstration. TruthSift addresses a critical problem, deciding truth and publishing a transparent proof, for which the world has not previously had a good solution outside of mathematics. I prove: Theorem 1: In the limit where members bring to bear all
their pertinent knowledge, a statement will be rated TE by TruthSift if and only if there is an established proof of it to which no member has a remaining challenge. If it is not rated TE, there is an established proof of a disproof of it, or of every proof of
it. I predict crowd-sourced verification will lead to progress on wicked problems(3).

Instance segmentation has gained recently huge attention in various computer vision applications. It aims at providing different IDs to different objects of the scene, even if they belong to the same class. Instance segmentation is usually performed as a two-stage pipeline. First, an object is detected, then semantic segmentation within the detected box area is performed which involves costly up-sampling. In this paper, we propose Insta-YOLO, a novel one-stage end-to-end deep learning model for real-time instance segmentation. Instead of pixel-wise prediction, our model predicts instances as object contours represented by 2D points in Cartesian space. We evaluate our model on three datasets, namely, Carvana, Cityscapes and Airbus. We compare our results to the state-of-the-art models for instance segmentation. The results show our model achieves competitive accuracy in terms of mAP at twice the speed on GTX-1080 GPU.

Safety in complex work environments is often an area of focus in the research community. Aviation is a multi-faceted field, but it remains one of the safest work environments in the world. For instance, despite passenger numbers increasing worldwide over many decades, the year 2013, when 3.1 billion passengers flew worldwide, is the safest year on record for aviation (Aviation Safety Network, 2017). That year resulted in only 29 fatal crashes and 265 deaths – one per 11,501,886 miles flown. Despite these impressive statistics, every disaster affects the lives of many people and attracts the attention of the general public, who demand answers. As a result, aviation has continually sought to discover new methods for increasing safety. Early in the twentieth century, when aviation was developing as an industry, accidents were decreasing steadily due to technical improvements, such as advances in aircraft structures and materials, aerodynamics, and systems. In the 1970s, as safety impro...

Despite the increase in massive open online courses (MOOCs), evidence about the pedagogy of learning in MOOCs remains limited. This paper reports on an investigation into the pedagogy in one MOOC- Oxford Brookes University’s ‘First Steps in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education ’ MOOC (FSLT12). FSLT12 was an open and free professional development opportunity for people moving into HE teaching. It was a small course (200 participants registered from 24 countries) which was focused on introducing HE teaching skills, and, uniquely, to deliberately integrate open academic practice as a vital part of professional development for HE teachers. A qualitative, case-study approach was used in the research, based on surveys, interviews, and social media, to provide evidence about how people learned in this course and consider wider implications for teaching and learning in higher education. The evidence shows that participants who completed the course were able to learn autonomously and na...

ALREADY LIVE ON AMAZON , buy now this ebook of methods from the world’s best in 63 professions. PEERLESS PRACTICAL TESTED not fact pile “literacy” but procedure literacy!! Essential for parenting and leading by us all. BUT TOUGH for these methods come from the world’s best——they are not at all the way you now operate & the way I now operate—— they are a leap beyond us! Dozens of my former students have built profitable 10 year plus old consultancies based on single methods of the 100 methods in this book. There is no gigantic global corporation you cannot become VP or CEO of by riding just two or three of these 100 methods——nothing more than that is needed to get to the top. But i warn you—Each method in this book will require deep abiding changes in how you view things, value things, and what you aim for, plus, how you do and implement. The rewards are huge however and immediate! The book is extremely well ordered so you can study any method in any order without getting lost. Each method came from those at the top of 63 fields via being most effective BUT WITH added bits from other eminent ones doing something very similar but slightly better in this or that respect. No one expert’s way of work was as good therefore in every detail as EACH of this ebook’s 100 methods. Rise above the tops of every field using this ebook! Magic power!

As smart phones, tablets and many other portable devices are getting closer and closer to the humankind, many technologies are being released day by day. Among them, security has been one major aspect where much research has been done. Though modern vehicle security systems have been developed, there are certain limitations which are experienced in the practical usage of such applications. We realized that though many such systems were available, not many had the capability of providing a video feed via an IP along with triggering an alarm and so forth using a mobile device. The present systems in the market are quite expensive and use too advanced technologies which require specialist installation and maintenance. Mobile integration is also not as optimized as it should be. Therefore our main goal in this research was to “integrate” all these features and build a coherent mobile car security system with a centralized administration. The basic underlying idea of this project therefore is to provide a “practical” and a “cost effective” car security system to the general public. In this project, we provide a camera feed (via IP) of the vehicle to the vehicle owner to his / her mobile device and then enable the user to control the system remotely. It also can detect any human activity, using the switches and report it to the owner via an auto generated sms notification. We have used a web camera which is connected to a Raspberry Pi chipset and powered using a power bank, switches, LED bulbs, 2 speakers and a Wi-Fi adaptor to build the system. When someone tends to open the door lock of the vehicle, a switch which is situated under the door lock of the vehicle, will trigger giving a signal to activate the chipset and send a sms notification to the owner. Then the owner can get an instant view of the situation (on his mobile), and if he wishes to, he can take necessary steps to protect his vehicle from any danger. We have tested the implementation under lab conditions and the results have been quite satisfactory. We were able to achieve the main goals which we wanted to achieve. However it needs to be noted that if this is to be implemented commercially we would have to develop our system to use “port forwarding” (so that the owner may view the video from anywhere in the world), and a city-wide Wi-Fi network or a high-bandwidth data connection would be necessary (HSDPA / WCDMA) for the system to work smoothly.
