This pliable interface must conform continuously with the changing abilities of the end user and the person’s culture, irrespective of the prevailing ambient culture. The information required to customise this interface must be derived from the user’s actual digital footprint and not on their feedback. This treatise presents the usability evaluation results of a culturally inclusive and ubiquitous mobile learning (M-Learning) platform (‘Mobile Academy’), with an AI-based adaptive user interface which takes the snapshot of the installed apps on a smartphone as input, predicts the user’s cultural affiliation as well as the language preference and thus offer a culturally customised user interface as the output. The proof of concept (PoC) prototype has been developed based on the CIAUI (Culturally Inclusive Adaptive User Interface) framework, using plasticity of user interface techniques. This approach was taken to test the affordability of developing inclusive applications, considering the ever growing large global culturally diverse user base. Usability evaluation was then conducted and the results carefully analysed. The results indicated that the PoC exhibited enhanced cross-cultural usability and affordability of such techniques. The evaluation results of the PoC also advocates in favour of the user’s cultural profiling based on the mobile usage data, particularly a single snapshot of installed apps. The research provides direction for future research and application development.","PeriodicalId":7140,"journal":{"name":"Acta Scientiarum-technology","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79403642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional corpus-based approaches for processing corpus (i.e. the collected NLD) mainly focused on quantifying and ranking words for assisting human in extracting keywords. However, traditional corpus-based approaches cannot identify the meanings behind the words to properly extract terminologies nor their information. To address this issue, the main objective of this paper is to propose an integrated linguistic analysis approach that combines two corpus-based approaches and a rule-based natural language processing (NLP) approach to extract and identify terminologies and create the text database for extracting deeper domain-oriented information by using the terminologies as channels to retrieve core information from the target corpus. Military domain is an uncommon research field and often classified as confidential data, which caused little researches to focus on. Nevertheless, military information is vital to national security and should not be ignored. Hence, to verify the proposed approach in extracting terminologies and information of the terminologies, the researchers adopt the US Army field manual (FM) 8-10-6 as the target corpus and empirical case. Compared with AntConc 3.5.8 and Tongpoon-Patanasorn’s hybrid approach, the results indicate that from the perspectives of terminology identification, texts database creation, domain knowledge extraction, only the proposed approach can handle all these issues.","PeriodicalId":7140,"journal":{"name":"Acta Scientiarum-technology","volume":"67 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77891346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It collects light and distributes it to the brain for image processing through the use of the optic nerve. Diseases that end up causing vision loss and blindness are generated by retinal ailments. As a result, it is imperative to diagnose and treat certain disorders as early as possible. Optical coherence tomography (OCT), an angiography imaging technique, is operated to help diagnose retinal disorders. Deep learning approaches, which are extensively utilized, have now become a convenient way for diagnosing retinal illnesses through OCT images as a result of their effective outcomes in interpreting medical images. To diagnose retinal disorders utilizing OCT scans, this investigation developed a hybrid methodology based on image pre-processing and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) (a deep learning method). Image pre-processing techniques including background filling, resizing, noise reduction, and highlighting are exercised at the pre-processing stage. The segmentation process provides a new CNN architecture with five convolution layers that does have a low computational cost. Compared to other publications using the same data set, the proposed method seems to have a success rate of 99.48 percent in the detection of retinal disorders, closing a significant gap in the literature. The proposed approach has the advantage of maintaining low computing costs in comparison to other studies in the literature. When the conclusions are regarded, it is noticed that the suggested method might be exerted as a decision support system to assist physicians in the clinical context during the diagnosis of retinal disorders.","PeriodicalId":7140,"journal":{"name":"Acta Scientiarum-technology","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81851965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of these limitations is the fact that the thermal effects derived from component manufacturing processes are normally disregarded in the analysis. Thus, the main goal of this study is to evaluate strains near the weld beads of a geometric model for a truck tow hook using numerical simulations by finite element method, considering thermal loads applied before the field loading. To validate the simulation results, an experiment was performed using a tow hook found in a commercial truck. Strain gauge rosettes were placed on the body base plate, and a load of 181.050 N was applied to the hook. This loading was the result of a commercial truck being pulled on level terrain, simulating a normal operation condition of the tow hook. The Von Mises stress found in simulations was approximately 302.23 MPa at the same position where the strain gauges were glued, when the load was applied. The difference between the simulated and experimental values of the equivalent specific strains in the area of the weld beads was 19.2%, and the difference between the permanent displacement values, resulting from plastic strain, in the X-direction was 0.1%. These results justify conducting new studies involving numerical simulations and considering thermal effects on static and dynamic loads in the automotive industry.","PeriodicalId":7140,"journal":{"name":"Acta Scientiarum-technology","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73205647","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experiment was carried with solution of chromium (III) in three concentrations (10, 50 and 100 ppm) in the period of four days and evaluations daily. The concentration of chromium in the solution influenced the form of storage of metal in the tissues of plants. In 24 hours, there was increase of glutathione in the root in 10ppm solution and in 50 and 100 ppm the accumulation of glutathione occurs in the stem, coinciding with the peak absorption metal (48 hours). The activity of the catalase was higher in the roots, the peroxidase showed higher activity at the 50 ppm concentration, and the guaiacol had similar activity to catalase. The tolerance of P. parviflora in response to chromium stress occur for complex mechanisms, phytohormone-producing as significantly regulated under Cr stress and the formation of phytoquelatins was in sync with the absorption of metal. Due to the tolerance shown by P. parviflora, it becomes important for the environmental treatment of contaminated water.","PeriodicalId":7140,"journal":{"name":"Acta Scientiarum-technology","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85569795","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

PVC patterns are very hard to be recognized since their waveforms can be confused with other heartbeats, such as Right and Left Bundle Branch Blocks. This work proposes a new approach for PVC recognition, based on Gaussian Naive Bayes algorithm and AMUSE (Algorithm for Multiple Unknown Signal Extraction), which is a method for the blind source separation problem. This approach provides a set of attributes that are combined by Linear Discriminant Analysis, allowing the training of an ensemble learning. The Analytic Hierarchy Process weights each learned model according to its importance, obtained from the performance metrics. This approach has some advantages over baseline methods since it does not use a pre-processing stage and employs a simple machine learning model trained using only two parameters for each feature. Using a standard dataset for training and test phases, the proposed approach achieves 98.75% accuracy, 90.65% sensitivity, and 99.46% specificity. The best performance was 99.57% accuracy, 98.64% sensitivity, and 99.65% specificity for other datasets.
