COPPING PHENOMENON IN CHINA: THEORETICAL PERSPECTIVE ON VOCATIONAL COLLEGES IN SHANXI

This research aims to identify the phenomena of copping in China by concentrating on the theoretical viewpoint of Vocational Colleges in Shanxi. There are few theories, such as social cognitive theory, constructivist learning theory, social identity theory, political symbolism, huang yanpei’s theory of vocational education, richter’s theory of vet based on adaption and behaviorist learning theory are discussed in detais to explain the phenomenon. It is vital to recognise that higher vocational colleges are the reserve basis of national technical colleges and create professional and technical colleges with high capabilities and high quality. The influence of rate of return on admissions to vocational colleges has been extensively studied in recent years. This research also examines the benefits of vocational education from the perspectives of employment rate, pay, degree of income from vocational labour, and identity transformation. Yet, it has to be determined whether the rate of return influences the reputation and allure of vocational colleges.

Behavioral analytics for myopic agents

Many multi-agent systems have a single coordinator providing incentives to a large number of agents. Two challenges faced by the coordinator are a finite budget from which to allocate incentives, and an initial lack of knowledge about the utility function of the agents. Here, we present a behavioral analytics approach for solving the coordinator’s problem when the agents make decisions by maximizing utility functions that depend on prior system states, inputs, and other parameters that are initially unknown. Our behavioral analytics framework involves three steps: first, we develop a model that describes the decision-making process of an agent; second, we use data to estimate the model parameters for each agent and predict their future decisions; and third, we use these predictions to optimize a set of incentives that will be provided to each agent. The framework and approaches we propose in this paper can then adapt incentives as new information is collected. Furthermore, we prove that the incentives computed by this approach are asymptotically optimal with respect to a loss function that describes the coordinator’s objective. We optimize incentives with a decomposition scheme, where each sub-problem solves the coordinator’s problem for a single agent, and the master problem is a pure integer program. We conclude with a simulation study to evaluate the effectiveness of our approach for designing a personalized weight loss program. The results show that our approach maintains efficacy of the program while reducing its costs by up to 60%, while adaptive heuristics provide substantially less savings.

Seizing Momentum on Climate Action: Nexus between Net-Zero Commitment Concern, Destination Competitiveness, Influencer Marketing, and Regenerative Tourism Intention

Embracing net-zero principles and planet-friendly regenerative tourism practices can reduce our carbon footprint and increase momentum toward carbon neutral. The present study explored the effects of the net-zero commitment concern on regenerative tourism intention, including the moderating influence of destination competitiveness and influencer marketing on this relationship. Drawing on a survey of international expat tourists (N = 540) and partial least squares-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM), the present study offers ground-breaking empirical evidence on the significantly positive influence of the net-zero commitment concern on regenerative tourism intention. Importantly, the PLS-SEM estimations also validated that destination competitiveness and influencer marketing strengthened the effects of the net-zero commitment concern on regenerative tourism intention through significantly positive moderations. The present study implications offer strategic guidelines and an advancement in prior knowledge on the net-zero commitment concern, destination competitiveness, influencer marketing, and regenerative tourism intention with an aim to increase the collective global efforts toward climate action. Moreover, the present study used prominent theories (i.e., the theory of planned behavior, game theory, resilience theory, and social learning theory) to guide future investigations on the complex nexus between net-zero commitment, destination competitiveness, influencer marketing, and regenerative tourism intention.

Teori Belajar Behaviorisme Ivan Pavlov dan Implikasinya dalam Pembelajaran Bahasa Arab Siswa Madrasah Tsanawiyah Negeri

This study aims to find out the implications of Ivan Pavlov's behaviorism learning theory in learning Arabic for class VIII students of Madrasah Tsanawiyah Negeri (MTsN) Sukabumi City and its advantages and disadvantages. The method used in this study is a qualitative approach with observation techniques. This study also used interview techniques for Arabic teacher in class VIII MTs Negeri Sukabumi City and to 12 students of MTs Negeri Kota Sukabumi who came from the 4 classes. The results showed that there are many behaviors in Arabic language learning for class VIII MTs Negeri Sukabumi City students that are relevant to Ivan Pavlov's concept of behaviorism learning theory, namely to make students learn, teacher provides certain conditions. The advantage of this learning theory is suitable to be applied to Arabic language learning for class VIII students of MTs Negeri Sukabumi City, because most of the students show the expected response when the teacher often applies repetition and habituation related to the material being studied. The disadvantage lies in the hours of study that affect the response given by the students. Students who learn Arabic in the morning tend to be quick in responding to the stimulus provided by the teacher.

A secure and privacy-preserving word vector training scheme based on functional encryption with inner-product predicates

With the extensive applications of machine learning, it has been witnessed that machine learning has been applied in various fields such as e-commerce, mobile data processing, health analytics and behavioral analytics etc. Word vector training is usually deployed in machine learning to provide a model architecture and optimization, for example, to learn word embeddings from a large amount of datasets. Training word vector in machine learning needs a lot of datasets to train and then outputs a model, however, some of which might contain private and sensitive information, and the training phase will lead to the exposure of the trained model and user datasets. In order to offer utilizable, plausible, and personalized alternatives to users, this process usually also entails a breach of their privacy. For instance, the user data might contain of face,irirs and personal identities etc. This will release serious problem in the machine learning. In this article, we investigate the problem of training high-quality word vectors on encrypted datasets by using privacy-preserving learning algorithms. Firstly, we use a pseudo-random function to generate a statistical token for each word to help build the vocabulary of the word vector. Then we employ functional inner-product encryption to calculate the activation function to obtain the inner product, securely. Finally, we use BGN cryptosystem to encrypt and hide the sensitive datasets, and complete the homomorphic operation over the ciphertexts to perform the training procedure. In order to implement the privacy preservation of word vector training, we propose four privacy-preserving machine learning schemes to provide the privacy protection in our scheme. We analyze the security and efficiency of our protocols and give the numerical experiments. Compared with the existing solutions, it indicates that our scheme can provide a higher efficiency and less communication overhead.

Exploring Self-Supervised Vision Transformers for Gait Recognition in the Wild.

The manner of walking (gait) is a powerful biometric that is used as a unique fingerprinting method, allowing unobtrusive behavioral analytics to be performed at a distance without subject cooperation. As opposed to more traditional biometric authentication methods, gait analysis does not require explicit cooperation of the subject and can be performed in low-resolution settings, without requiring the subject's face to be unobstructed/clearly visible. Most current approaches are developed in a controlled setting, with clean, gold-standard annotated data, which powered the development of neural architectures for recognition and classification. Only recently has gait analysis ventured into using more diverse, large-scale, and realistic datasets to pretrained networks in a self-supervised manner. Self-supervised training regime enables learning diverse and robust gait representations without expensive manual human annotations. Prompted by the ubiquitous use of the transformer model in all areas of deep learning, including computer vision, in this work, we explore the use of five different vision transformer architectures directly applied to self-supervised gait recognition. We adapt and pretrain the simple ViT, CaiT, CrossFormer, Token2Token, and TwinsSVT on two different large-scale gait datasets: GREW and DenseGait. We provide extensive results for zero-shot and fine-tuning on two benchmark gait recognition datasets, CASIA-B and FVG, and explore the relationship between the amount of spatial and temporal gait information used by the visual transformer. Our results show that in designing transformer models for processing motion, using a hierarchical approach (i.e., CrossFormer models) on finer-grained movement fairs comparatively better than previous whole-skeleton approaches.

Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement: An Evidence-Based Social Work Intervention for Addiction, Stress, and Chronic Pain.

The purpose of this commentary is to update social workers about the evolution of Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement (MORE) since the publication of the book Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement for Addiction, Stress, and Pain (Garland, 2013, reviewed in Martin, 2022) and to provide a succinct overview of MORE’s clinical outcomes and mechanisms. MORE is an evidence-based social work intervention that unites mindfulness training, cognitive–behavioral therapy (CBT), and positive psychology into an integrative treatment for addiction, stress, and chronic pain. Across weekly MORE sessions, participants learn mindfulness, reappraisal, and savoring techniques to alleviate symptoms, enhance well-being, and strengthen their recovery. MORE draws on principles from social–behavioral learning theory to enhance motivation to practice, maximize therapeutic expectancy, and positively reinforce success experiences to increase participant engagement. Since 2013, MORE has been tested in 11 clinical trials, demonstrating efficacy for clients struggling with addiction and related issues (e.g., psychiatric disorders, chronic pain). The first Stage 1 randomized controlled trial (RCT) of MORE was conducted in a sample of people with alcohol use disorder (many of whom had co-occurring cocaine use disorder) residing in a long-term therapeutic community. This pilot (N = 53) provided an initial indication of MORE’s potential treatment value, demonstrating effects on addiction risk mechanisms including alcohol attentional bias and autonomic recovery from alcohol cue exposure—indicators of the extent to which a patient was “triggered” by addiction cues (Garland et al., 2010). Subsequently, my colleagues and I launched a five-year Stage 3 RCT (N = 180) of MORE at the same therapeutic community in a sample of formerly homeless men with co-occurring substance use disorders, trauma, and psychiatric disorders. MORE outperformed both trauma-focused CBT (a program based on Seeking Safety) and usual care in reducing drug craving and PTSD symptoms (Garland et al., 2016). For these first two trials of MORE, the treatment was targeted for clients in the “action” and “maintenance” stages of change (Prochaska et al., 1992).
