Depth and Video Segmentation Based Visual Attention for Embodied Question Answering.

Embodied Question Answering (EQA) is a newly defined research area where an agent is required to answer the users questions by exploring the real-world environment. It has attracted increasing research interests due to its broad applications in personal assistants and in-home robots. Most of the existing methods perform poorly in terms of answering and navigation accuracy due to the absence of fine-level semantic information, stability to the ambiguity, and 3D spatial information of the virtual environment. To tackle these problems, we propose a depth and segmentation based visual attention mechanism for Embodied Question Answering. Firstly, we extract local semantic features by introducing a novel high-speed video segmentation framework. Then guided by the extracted semantic features, a depth and segmentation based visual attention mechanism is proposed for the Visual Question Answering (VQA) sub-task. Further, a feature fusion strategy is designed to guide the navigators training process without much additional computational cost. The ablation experiments show that our method effectively boosts the performance of the VQA module and navigation module, leading to 4.9% and 5.6% overall improvement in EQA accuracy on House3D and Matterport3D datasets respectively.

The Effectiveness of Using the Minnesota Model in Completing University Physics Selection Exam

This study raises the issue of whether the Minnesota model in solving university selection physics questions gets the right results in terms of answers and time. This research aims to determine the effectiveness of using the Minnesota problem-solving model for the accuracy of answers and time in solving physics problems. The type of research is quantitative research with experimental methods. The population of this study was students of class XI from senior high school in Banda Aceh. The sample in this study was two classes. There was the experimental class and control class. Determination of the sample is done by purposive sampling. The approach used is a quantitative approach with the type of experimental research. The data was collected using a written test technique and data processing using an analysis of the effectiveness of the accuracy of the answers using an assessment rubric that has been validated and using t-test statistics, as well as the effectiveness of the use of time analysis based on the average time use of the two classes. The results of the data analysis showed that the average value of the experimental class using the Minnesota problem-solving model was higher than the control class, and the experimental class’s time usage was faster than the control class. It was stated that the Minnesota problem-solving model was effectively used in solving physics problems.

Accountability in artificial intelligence: what it is and how it works

AbstractAccountability is a cornerstone of the governance of artificial intelligence (AI). However, it is often defined too imprecisely because its multifaceted nature and the sociotechnical structure of AI systems imply a variety of values, practices, and measures to which accountability in AI can refer. We address this lack of clarity by defining accountability in terms of answerability, identifying three conditions of possibility (authority recognition, interrogation, and limitation of power), and an architecture of seven features (context, range, agent, forum, standards, process, and implications). We analyze this architecture through four accountability goals (compliance, report, oversight, and enforcement). We argue that these goals are often complementary and that policy-makers emphasize or prioritize some over others depending on the proactive or reactive use of accountability and the missions of AI governance.

Dignity as an Intersubjective Phenomenon: Experiences of Dyads Living With Serious Illness.

Research results suggest that illness can undermine patients' dignity and that dignity can be understood as an experience formed in communion with others. The aim of this study was, therefore, to illuminate the meanings of lived experiences of dignity as an intersubjective phenomenon from the perspective of dyads in palliative care. The authors analyzed transcripts from interviews with nine dyads using a phenomenological-hermeneutical method. Within the contexts of the dyadic relationship and the dyadic-health care professional relationship, the authors' interpretation revealed two meanings based on the participants' lived experiences: "Being available," related to responding and being responded to in terms of answerability and we-ness, and "Upholding continuity," linked to feeling attached through the maintenance of emotional bonds and being connected through upholding valued activities and qualities in daily living. The authors further reflected on the meanings in relation to philosophically grounded concepts such as presence, objectification, dependence, and dyadic body.

Accountability in Healthcare in India.

Today, health is a human right in India, and the government is working hard for universalization of health services provision till the grassroots. Health without accountability is a challenging task in hand, and recently, state governments drafted a bill toward public health system to move in the strengthened direction of accountability mechanism. Accountability is the quality or state of being accountable, and it is an important component of the health-care reforms in India. This article provides more nuanced understanding of accountability which includes the specification of accountability, conceptual framework of accountability, and its potential approaches for how accountability is viewed today in India with reference to the Central, State, District, and other stakeholders. It examines the role of accountability in making accountable health plans, and its relationship governance/ownership structures as a key component of health-care reforms as improved accountability is a major element in improving the health system performance. The article elaborates on the definition of accountability in terms of answerability and sanctions and distinguishes the three types of accountability, namely financial, performance, and political/democratic. The article describes three accountability-enhancing strategies, namely reducing the pilferage, assuring acquiescence with procedures and standards, and improved learning from the past experience. The recent events in Indian health care put forward a serious issue on how accountability can be fixed if health mishaps happened and how we can make our health plans accountable to the needs and aspiration for the people of India. Overall, the accountability is discouraging and more needs to be done to enhance the accountability compliance in India.

ADDING VALUE IN FOOD SUPPLY CHAINS – CASE STUDY

The paper analyses the selected group of fruit and vegetable producers in terms of answers to three key research questions: which is an innovation in the examined group, how the added value is created and how this group interacts to the local rural community. The selection of this organization for research in the Malopolska province was based on criteria such as organizational innovation, uniqueness of the solution and cooperation with the ODR. Source data was obtained by the direct interview method conducted by the authors with representatives of the Management Board. It was found that the Group is a unique example of vertical integration „forward” and capturing added value from the market by eliminating all intermediaries. It is a business model that covers the whole supply chain, i.e. from the field to the store shelves. The high quality of the products and the large variety of them make it possible to achieve high income and invest in further development. The Group has created new jobs in the local environment, disseminates good practices in orchards, production and processing, and through taxes and sponsorship contributes to the economic development of the local community.

Accountability and health systems: toward conceptual clarity and policy relevance.

Improved accountability is often called for as an element in improving health system performance. At first glance, the notion of better accountability seems straightforward, but it contains a high degree of complexity. If accountability is to be more than an empty buzzword, conceptual and analytical clarity is required. This article elaborates a definition of accountability in terms of answerability and sanctions, and distinguishes three types of accountability: financial, performance and political/democratic. An analytic framework for mapping accountability is proposed that identifies linkages among health sector actors and assesses capacity to demand and supply information and exercise oversight and sanctions. The article describes three accountability purposes: reducing abuse, assuring compliance with procedures and standards, and improving performance/learning. Using an accountability lens can: (1) help to generate a system-wide perspective on health sector reform, (2) identify connections among individual improvement interventions, and (3) reveal gaps requiring policy attention. These results can enhance system performance, improve service delivery and contribute to sound policymaking.

Empirical Research on Understanding Literature

1.1. Hermeneutics on understanding. The majority of recent studies in the understanding of literature still follow the hermeneutic spirals of the circle of understanding. This spiral approach has produced at least as many problems as hermeneutic readings have been constructed. Investigating and pondering literary discourse, hermeneutics quite naturally asks of the texts what they mean or symbolize or what they intend. This self-induced dialogue between the text and the scholar has been rather productive in terms of answers to questions of textual meaning, which, in fact, is not really surprising, since that very dialogue depends on the personalities and attitudes of the interpreters themselves. Some scholars who are sensitive to the intersubjectivity of science have therefore suggested that hermeneutic understanding should be abandoned. They have urged members of the scientific community to relate their personal understanding to a kind of metareflection or metadiscourse about sociohistorically acquired frames, presuppositions, and interests that shape the process of personal understanding. Nevertheless, those hermeneuticians who first took such a critical attitude towards their understanding of a text and its sociohistorical context have not yet provided any plausible solution to the central problem of the adequate, correct, objective reconstruction of the meaning of a text (provided first that the meaning of the text exists). About a decade ago, several scientists proposed a new approach to studying the problem of the author, the textual work of art, and the
