Analysis of digital humanistic knowledge production based on natural language processing

Abstract Digital humanistic knowledge production emphasises the importance of a strong knowledge production community and differentiates from traditional knowledge production models, which include aspects such as online and cooperative knowledge development. The digital humanities knowledge production community model is already widely acknowledged. However, the features and characteristics of digital humanistic knowledge production under natural language processing are controversial. This research presents a wordVEA digital humanistic knowledge production feature mining approach based on a word2vec and variational self-encoder (VAE). The knowledge production characteristics of digital humanistic are primarily defined by the coexistence of a knowledge production structure and boundary blurring, as well as interdisciplinary collaboration thematic cohesiveness and broad horizon, as determined by the research results which effectively address the question of the characteristics of digital humanistic knowledge production through application of the word VAE method.

Secure and Efficient Blockchain-Based Knowledge Sharing for Intelligent Connected Vehicles

The emergence of Intelligent Connected Vehicles (ICVs) shows great potential for future intelligent traffic systems, enhancing both traffic safety and road efficiency. However, the ICVs relying on data driven perception and driving models face many challenges, such as the lack of comprehensive knowledge to deal with complicated driving context. In this paper, we investigate cooperative knowledge sharing for ICVs. We propose a secure and efficient blockchain based knowledge sharing framework, wherein a distributed learning based scheme is utilized to enhance the efficiency of knowledge sharing and a directed acyclic graph (DAG) system is designed to guarantee the security of shared learning models. To cater for the time-intense demand of highly dynamic vehicular networks, a lightweight DAG is designed to reduce the operation latency in terms of fast consensus and authentication. Moreover, to further enhance model accuracy as well as minimizing bandwidth consumption, an adaptive asynchronous distributed learning (ADL) based scheme is proposed for model uploading and downloading. Experiment results show that the DAG based framework is lightweight and secure, which reduces both chosen and confirmation delay as well as resisting malicious attacks. In addition, the proposed adaptive ADL scheme enhances driving safety related performance compared to several existing algorithms.

Interprofessional Training for Discharge Planning: Effects of Self-Efficacy in Nursing and Medical Students

Interprofessional Training for Discharge Planning: Effects of Self-Efficacy in Nursing and Medical Students Abstract. Concordant and methodical briefing about a patient's disposition for discharge from hospital within the interprofessional ward round can facilitate a timely discharge. However, interprofessional ward rounds require not only professional skills but also knowledge of interprofessional cooperation between all the occupational groups involved. The question arose whether students of the various professions could learn the necessary competencies during their studies. To this end, a training course on interprofessional discharge planning was developed for nursing and medical students. The training includes four phases consisting of flipped classroom and interprofessional skills training. After each phase, a questionnaire was distributed to assess the self-efficacy of participating nursing and medical students regarding their interprofessional collaboration skills. The results showed that self-efficacy increased steadily with increasing study duration from phase 1 to 4. The study also shows that despite the differences between nursing and medical school curricula, students' self-efficacy regarding interprofessional collaboration skills increased during the IAVI training, which strongly suggests that they benefited from the training.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INDUSTRY UNIVERSITY RESEARCH COOPERATION MODE, KNOWLEDGE CREATION PERFORMANCE AND EMOTIONAL REGULATION AND MENTAL HEALTH OF COLLEGE TEACHERS AND STUDENTS

BackgroundIn order to solve the “two skins” of science and technology and economic development, as well as the lack of close cooperation between industry, University and research, and the low efficiency of cooperative knowledge creation. We should improve the knowledge creation performance of industry university research cooperation and select the appropriate mode of industry university research cooperation. Generally speaking, “Industry” in industry university research cooperation refers to enterprises relying on technological innovation; “Learning” means universities; “Research” mainly means scientific research institutes focusing on basic research, applied research and various technological development. But in a broad sense, industry university research cooperation usually expands the principal parts to government, intermediary institutions, financial and venture capital institutions in addition to universities, enterprises and scientific research institutes.Subjects and MethodsBased on Ebbinghaus forgetting curve and SECI knowledge creation model, this paper makes a quantitative study by analyzing the knowledge creation mechanism of industry university research cooperation and using the method of difference analysis. By designing a questionnaire, this paper investigates the sample data of three representative northeast provinces in China, and draws a scientific conclusion.ResultsThe results show that different industry university research cooperation modes have significant differences in the creation performance of explicit knowledge and tacit knowledge. This determines that different industry university research cooperation modes have significant differences in the total performance of knowledge creation. And the stronger the degree of cooperation embeddedness, the more significant the impact on knowledge creation performance.ConclusionsThis research result tell us when choosing the cooperation mode, enterprises, universities and scientific research institutes should choose the mode with as strong embeddedness as possible under their own acceptable conditions. And enterprises should send personnel to colleges and universities to learn advanced theoretical knowledge and increase the stock of tacit knowledge; Universities and scientific research institutes send personnel to enterprises to learn advanced practical experience and supplement practical knowledge. In order to avoid knowledge forgetting, try to convert tacit knowledge into explicit knowledge and record it for later use. It can also be passed on as data to later people for learning and use. This paper further consummate the relevant research on knowledge creation performance, makes up for the lack of research on the relationship between industry university research cooperation modes and knowledge creation performance, and provides a certain theoretical foundation and empirical reference for industry university research principal parts to strengthen cooperation and improve knowledge creation performance.AcknowledgementsThis research was funded by “The key project of Heilongjiang Education Science ‘13th five year plan’ in 2020”, (grant number: GJB1320109) and “Ministry of education industry university research collaborative education project”, (grant number: 201902067011).

Relationship between demographics and patient infographics of company guarantees on utilization of inpatient services

Introduction: Based on the low interest in inpatient visits by company insurance, only 11.4% of employees utilize inpatient facilities at CMH. This study aimed to find the relationship between demographics and infographics of company insurance patients on the use of inpatient services. Methods: This study was conducted on 95 respondents from a customer's company. Ninety-five customers are divided into actual customers who have used inpatient services (58 people) and potential customers who have not utilized (37 people). The data is processed by grouping some between actual and potential customers and processed descriptively using a chi-square of several variables, including demographics and infographics. Results: This study informs that the distance from home and the length of time known to the hospital did not affect inpatient care. At the same time, knowledge of cooperation and socialization of HRD influences the utilization of inpatient services. Repeated socialization and the hospital's proximity to HRD can cause more patients to visit and take advantage of inpatient services Conclusion: In carrying out inpatient services, the company's role as a guarantor is very decisive in directing customers to CMH. Utilization of inpatient services is not influenced by distance from home and length of time with CMH but by customer knowledge regarding collaboration with CMH and socialization by HRD.

DAKWAH PELESTARIAN ALAM SEKITAR: ANALISIS TERHADAP KEPERIBADIAN DAN STRATEGI AZIZAN BAHARUDDIN

In Islamic preaching, environmental sustainability is one of the vital aspects in order to achieve the wellbeing of life. Therefore, the involvement of religious groups or preachers is very crucial to curb problems of environmental sustainability based on the tenets of religion. Hence, using content and document analysis approach, this study is aimed at reviewing the da’wah approach of environmental sustainability addressed by Azizan Baharuddin in calling Muslims to adopt environmental ethics and sustainability from Islamic teachings. The results found that Azizan Baharuddin’s da’wah strategies towards environmental sustainability are dominated by the cultivating of knowledge and network of cooperation with stakeholders. Therefore, in order to spread the awareness of environmental sustainability based on Islamic teachings among Muslims, Islamic preachers should emulate the personality and da’wah approach applied by Azizan Baharuddin who promotes it holistically and effectively.

The Employability of Graduates of National Characteristic Discipline Programs of Study in China: Evidence from Employers

Prior studies have examined the historical evolution, multiple stakes, measurements and operation models of graduate employability, and the researches on graduate employability have gradually shifted to the perspective of employers with wider labor market uncertainty and higher education massification. However, there is still a gap in research on the demand for graduate employability by employers in national high-end equipment manufacturing that work closely with higher education in scientific research. Namely, it remains unclear what really matters in the processes of employers’ recruitment decisions in national high-end equipment manufacturing. Drawing on Yorke’s definition and CareerEDGE model, this study defines graduate employability as a set of achievements—skills, understandings and personal attributes—that makes graduates more likely to gain employment in national high-end equipment manufacturing, including “emotional intelligence”, “knowledge and skills”, “generic skills”, “work experience”, “character and personality”. Owing to the importance and arduousness of national high-end equipment manufacturing historical mission and main tasks, we argue that employers pay more attention to graduate employability in the recruitment process. Empirically examining based on 831 questionnaires from employers of national high-end equipment manufacturing in China, we show that employers prefer graduates with higher levels of “cooperative innovation ability”, “knowledge and skills”, “stress management and adaptation” within Chinese national characteristic discipline programs. Particularly, although employers in national high-end equipment manufacturing have always emphasized employees’ loyalty and dedication, “character and personality” of a graduate does not have a direct effect on employer hiring preference, but instead the effect of cooperative innovation ability and knowledge and skills are fully moderated by character and personality.

Influence of Sustained Learning on Knowledge Transferability in Distance Learning

Through the network teaching platform, distance teaching provides relevant distance technical support services for adult education, and evaluates teaching results of the teaching method, relying on modern network technology and integrating educational resources. It has become a consistent pursuit in the field of education to change the learning mode of distance learners, to cultivate higher-order sustained thinking ability, and to promote sustained learning so that learners’ knowledge transferability becomes more obvious. The results show that Cronbach’s á coefficient and KMO values of the questionnaire are 0.879 and 0.850, indicating that the reliability and validity of the questionnaire are good. Sustained learning, which consists of learning engagement, learning motivation and learning strategy, can significantly improve knowledge transferability. Distance learning duration and age of learners have significant differences in knowledge transferability. Gender and specialty have no significant difference in knowledge transferability. Conclusions have very important reference value for improving sustained learning effect of learners in distance teaching, promoting the occurrence of learners’ multiple interaction behaviors in distance teaching, and realizing cooperative knowledge construction of learners in distance teaching.

Building a methodological framework and toolkit for news media dataset tracking of conflict and cooperation dynamics on transboundary rivers

Abstract. The management of transboundary rivers will be one of the great political and environmental challenges of the 21st century if knowledge of conflict and cooperation is not fully developed. Transboundary river conflict and cooperation are critical for the sustainable development of river basins, regional security, and stability and have significant scientific and practical implications. The construction of a dataset of transboundary water events – individual conflictive or cooperative interaction between riparian regions – provides an important data support and a factual basis for the study of transboundary rivers. However, the most representative research, the Transboundary Freshwater Dispute Database, is built by means of manual reading for information extraction, is, thus, difficult for fast updating, and also does not cover the global changes in the past decade. This research aims to build a methodological framework for news media datasets to track conflict and cooperation dynamics on transboundary rivers, provide a mass of relevant data for the research of transboundary rivers on the globe, prepare a potent research toolkit, lay a solid foundation for further data mining research, and better suit the big data age. In order to test the effectiveness of the methodological framework and toolkit for dataset construction, this research analyses the spatial coverage, both in terms of continental and national, temporal coverage from 1953 to 2019, and content coverage and conducts relevance screening of the articles in the four representative river basins in the datasets. The results show that the datasets built by this framework can capture comprehensive content of transboundary water conflict and cooperation in both spatial and temporal coverage with acceptable data quality.

Prediksi Pemberian Rekomendasi Kenaikan Pangkat PNS Menggunakan Metode Naïve Bayes

A civil servant or civil servant (English: civil servant, Dutch: ambtenaar) is a person employed by a government agency to provide public services. As a profession, civil servants are positions that are pursued through career paths and not based on general elections involving the people's vote. Quoted from the Regulation of the Head of BKN No. 35 of 2011 concerning Guidelines for the Preparation of PNS Careers, the career pattern of civil servants is arranged based on the principles of certainty, professionalism, and transparency. One of the requirements to achieve the desired career is through the promotion process. The promotion or class of a civil servant cannot be separated from the recommendation of the leadership. A leader in providing recommendations must look at several important points that must be possessed by employees who will be given recommendations such as Attendance, Integrity, Cooperation and Insight or Knowledge. In the process, there are still problems in terms of technical and effectiveness because manual assessments sometimes still assess subjectively. Therefore, a study was carried out for the classification of the determination of the status of giving recommendations using the Naïve Bayes method. Naive Bayes is one method of probabilistic reasoning. The Naive Bayes algorithm aims to classify data in certain classes, then the pattern can be used to estimate the employee who will be given a recommendation, so that the leader can make a decision to give recommendation or not to the employee

Anthropology and development in Germany

The history of anthropology’s engagement with development in the post-World War II German-speaking world (Germany, Austria and Switzerland) can be divided into three phases: from being strongly rejected by most professorial chair holders (to around 1980), through the emergence of a subfield of anthropology (from 1980) and into the mainstream of the discipline (since around 2000). However, this perspective presupposes a broad definition of “anthropology of development” that encompasses more than the application of anthropological knowledge in development cooperation, as is often implied by the term “development anthropology”. In the slow modernisation process of German anthropology over the last fifty years – as defined by the discipline’s turn towards the modern world and its rapid internationalisation – the critical study of development as a field of professional practice has played a pioneering role by providing important theoretical and methodological stimuli. Together with their European colleagues, not least from APAD, German-speaking anthropologists have developed a particular style that has also been referred to as the “anthropology of development based on anthropology in development”. Today, the anthropology of development has evolved into an ethnographic inquiry of global social engineering.

Sustainable competitive advantages for a nascent wine country: an example from southern Sweden

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to discuss the opportunities for and challenges faced in the development of a wine sector in a nascent wine country, as well as the necessary requirements for the creation of sustainable competitive advantages (SCA), using Sweden as an example.Design/methodology/approachContent analysis of previous research based on secondary data; a SWOT analysis of the wine sector in the nascent wine country, Sweden, is provided in connection with a conceptual framework for SCAs.FindingsIn a nascent wine country such as Sweden, factors such as climate or technical issues regarding wine production are important factors in respect of SCA, but in themselves, do not present insurmountable obstacles to their creation. In reality, structural challenges such as the alcohol monopoly in the retail market, various other legal regulations and restrictions, the lack of marketing and promotion capabilities, limited viticulture knowledge and limited experience of cooperation with the local enterprise are all far more problematic in that they lead to relatively limited demand for Swedish wine. In this context, a marketing management approach becomes a key factor in changing attitudes and approaches. Clearly, it is important to provide potential markets and consumers with relevant marketing information about the nascent wine country and its products.Originality/valuePrevious research generally focused on the SCA in the established wine countries; the focus of this study is on the SCA in a nascent wine country, a country without any tradition of commercial wine production. This study contributes to the discussion of a new conceptual framework for understanding SCA in the context of nascent wine countries. Furthermore, it suggests that the remaining state alcohol retail monopoly in Sweden provides not only challenges but also opportunities for the development of the wine sector. These findings are valid not only for Sweden but also for other nascent wine countries.

North-South collaboration: On the making of a Center for Comparative Education and Policy Studies at Addis Ababa University

The Ethiopian educational system has made promising advancements since the turn of the century. Despite this progress, education continues to grapple with a myriad of challenges, including differences in educational access and quality, insecure living conditions, and gender inequalities. Research can offer knowledge for tackling these challenges, but often it is knowledge from the global North that dominates, despite its questionable relevance to the global South. Therefore, this study analyses the evolvement of a Center for Comparative Education and Policy Studies, situated in an Ethiopian higher education context and supported by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA), and how the Center has contributed to developing knowledge that is relevant to local contexts. An important outcome of the Center was the development of a doctoral program in International and Comparative Education and the knowledge produced in the doctoral theses that emerged. Our inquiry concerns how Southern theory contributes to an increased understanding of the development of the Center and the relevance of the doctoral theses. The findings underscore the importance of expanding Southern knowledge in education and the need for further reflection on the geopolitics of knowledge in research capacity development cooperation.

Peran Komunikasi dalam Implementasi Kebijakan Pelacakan Kontak Erat dan Pemantauan Isolasi Mandiri Penderita Covid-19 Oleh Puskesmas di Kota Palembang

Carrying out close contact tracing and immediately isolating cases and contacts, is the chosen mitigation to offset the economic and social impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. This analysis of the implementation of the close contact tracing policy and monitoring of self-isolation is an important step for input from various parties to determine better policies in the future so that the pandemic can end soon. So good communication is needed between the parties involved in implementing the policy. This study is a qualitative research with a descriptive design that aims to determine the role of communication in the implementation of close contact tracing policies and self-isolation monitoring by the comunnity health centers in Palembang City 2020 which can be seen from the transmission, clarity and consistency variables using Edward III Theory. Methods of collecting data were in-depth interviews, observation and document review. The results of the study found that the lack of socialization carried out related to guidelines for prevention and contact tracing and self-isolation of COVID-19 sufferers, the ineffectiveness of socialization of guidelines carried out virtually, as well as inconsistencies in contact tracing due to several factors, firstly patient dishonesty, community stigma, data late case release, unclear address/telephone number, uncooperative patient and changes in guidelines that occurred from revision 4 to revision 5. Suggestions from this study are to evaluate the socialization of guidelines, increase knowledge and abilities of implementors, improve coordination and cooperation of implementers, empowerment of community roles so as to reduce stigma in society.

Social Work as a Transformative Science: The Importance of Relevance Structures in Knowledge Production

Abstract This article focuses on the question of how cooperative knowledge production takes place and, in particular, how novel knowledge is formed and implemented in organisational action. According to the current state of knowledge, this process, which results in a change in the way an organisation acts, is called social innovation. The framework for argumentation and reflection is provided by studies from the social work sciences on cooperative knowledge production and social innovation, as well as studies on the hybridity of knowledge and its interaction with the knowledge resources of scientific and non-scientific actors. Relevance structures are recognised in this article as a fundamental structure in the field of cooperative knowledge production; they significantly influence the question of how and when new knowledge leads to social innovation. A research project on homelessness serves as an example. Homelessness has been a research topic in Europe for many years. In Switzerland, however, there are hardly any scientifically sound studies and there are also few documented methods of action in practice. From this point of view, homelessness in Switzerland is therefore in need of innovation.

Continuous-Variable Quantum Secret Sharing Based on Thermal Terahertz Sources in Inter-Satellite Wireless Links.

We propose a continuous-variable quantum secret sharing (CVQSS) scheme based on thermal terahertz (THz) sources in inter-satellite wireless links (THz-CVQSS). In this scheme, firstly, each player locally preforms Gaussian modulation to prepare a thermal THz state, and then couples it into a circulating spatiotemporal mode using a highly asymmetric beam splitter. At the end, the dealer measures the quadrature components of the received spatiotemporal mode through performing the heterodyne detection to share secure keys with all the players of a group. This design enables that the key can be recovered only by the whole group players’ knowledge in cooperation and neither a single player nor any subset of the players in the group can recover the key correctly. We analyze both the security and the performance of THz-CVQSS in inter-satellite links. Results show that a long-distance inter-satellite THz-CVQSS scheme with multiple players is feasible. This work will provide an effective way for building an inter-satellite quantum communication network.

(Re)reading the room: The literacies of escape rooms

Building a more comprehensive understanding of gaming literacies, this article explores the kinds of literacy practices that emerge through participation and play within escape rooms. Based on a dataset of video recordings of participant interactions within an escape room, we perform side-by-side analyses of play based on two theoretical perspectives. In so doing, we propose alternative apparatuses for analyzing the gaming literacy practices and indeed the hidden and intended curriculum of escape rooms. This polyphonic rendering and reading are done not to argue that these are discrete phenomena within the flurry of the activity space of an escape room. Instead, it illustrates how these practices are interwoven with one another as well as with the tacit and collaborative knowledge of team-based cooperation, personal histories, and felt resources of play. Not simply noting how literacies mediate interaction in these gaming spaces, findings emphasize how learning, affect, interaction, and analog play are purposefully designed, entangled, felt, and understood.

Cooperative feeding in common dolphins as suggested by ontogenetic patterns in δ15 N bulk and amino acids.

Understanding the effect of stage-specific traits on species feeding habits can reveal how natural selection shapes life strategies. Amino acid (AA) nitrogen stable isotopes (δ15 N) provide multiple proxies of habitat baseline values and diet that can improve our understanding of species feeding strategies relative to their animal metabolism. We evaluated the effect of body length as a proxy for life stage and sex on the feeding habits of the common dolphin Delphinus delphis delphis using δ13 C and δ15 N in bulk tissue and AAs δ15 N from skin samples collected for almost two decades. For bulk δ13 C and δ15 N data, we used SIBER analysis to compare isotopic niches by sex and life stage. For AA δ15 N data, we developed a hierarchical Bayesian model (HBM) to estimate indices of trophic status (Δ15 N and trophic position). The model reflected the natural hierarchical structure of AA data by partitioning variability into three sources: between laboratory replicates, within dolphins and among dolphins. Estimates of Δ15 N based on all trophic and source AAs were more precise for each dolphin, less variable among dolphins and on average 2.4‰ higher than indices based on single trophic (Glx) and source (Phe) AAs. Precision was further increased when information was shared among individuals through random effects or regression models. Estimates of trophic position showed similar patterns. Both Δ15 N and δ15 Nbulk isotopic niches showed no difference by sex, suggesting that males and females have similar feeding habits and may not segregate. However, lower Δ15 N values for weaning calves and smaller juveniles discriminate them from adults, whereas δ15 N bulk isotopic niches do not. A trophic discrimination factor (TDFTro-Src ) of 3.1‰ was required for reasonable estimates of trophic position for these dolphins. Together, the lack of δ15 N differences between sexes, low variation between juveniles and adults and knowledge of common dolphins' social organization support intraspecific feeding cooperation as an important strategy to feed in the highly dynamic marine environment. Our study also presents an efficient way to analyse complex AA δ15 N data using HBM to investigate foraging behaviour in long-lived marine species difficult to study in the wild.
