Trivial Knowledge Research Articles

Online sports fans communities: humor, trivial knowledge, and anti-modern tendencies.

Recent technical developments and the widespread use of social networks have led to the emergence of a variety of online communities built around common interests. Among these virtual communities, one notable category revolves around sports fans. This conceptual article uses several examples of online sports fan communities in Israel to analyze their core elements. Within this context, the article focuses on the significance of humor, trivial knowledge, and counter-modern concepts as the key elements fostering unity among fans. Humor serves as a common thread that encourages interactions, also providing a platform for fans to showcase their niche knowledge, symbolizing their dedication to fan culture. Meanwhile, the prevalence of counter-modern inclinations within these communities highlights the fans' constant devotion to the sport, demonstrating a profound loyalty. Collectively, these elements signify a shift from supporting specific teams to becoming keen fans of the broader sporting domain.

Construction of Knowledge Graph for Flag State Control (FSC) Inspection for Ships: A Case Study from China

The flag state control (FSC) inspection is an important measure to ensure maritime safety. However, it is difficult to improve ship safety management efficiency using data mining due to the scattered and multi-source ship inspection knowledge. In this paper, the emerging knowledge graph technology is used to integrate multi-source knowledge for the FSC inspection. Firstly, an ontology model is built to systematically describe the knowledge and guide the construction of the data layer of the knowledge graph. Then, the BERT-BiGRU-CRF model is used to extract entities from the unstructured data of the FSC inspection. The extracted results are associated with structured and semi-structured data and stored in the graph database Neo4j to construct the knowledge graph. In addition, a case study of the FSC inspection knowledge graph of Dafeng Port in Yancheng, China, is conducted to verify the strength of the proposed method. The results show that the knowledge graph can correlate trivial knowledge and benefit the efficiency of the FSC inspection. Moreover, the knowledge graph can reflect the deficiency characteristics of ships and support the safety management of water transportation.

An Interactive Nursing Knowledge System Based on Artificial Intelligence and Its Implications for Neonatal Care Management

Nowadays, people are paying greater attention to the concept of childcare, and the healthy development of children is humanity’s hope for the future. The newborn stage is the most critical stage of a child’s development, and learning and mastering neonatal care is the first important lesson for parents. To meet the needs of today’s learners and to break the traditional teaching model, this paper develops a set of interactive newborn nursing knowledge system that composes the content of trivial nursing knowledge, reconstructs the knowledge structure system, and provides new teaching methods such as text browsing, 3D animation presentation, picture presentation, video presentation, interactive games, and tests for newborns. Text browsing, 3D animation, image demonstration, video demonstration, and interactive games and tests, among other new teaching methods, give a new teaching mode and method for neonatal nursing education. The study included 158 infants from local hospital. The study was divided into two groups, each with 80 cases: a control group (conventional care) and a study group (quality care management). The outcomes were contrasted and compared. The results revealed that the study group had a lower incidence of nursing defects than the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P 0.05 ); the study group had a lower incidence of diseases than the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05 ). The study goes over the complete process of incorporating the instructional display into the interactive newborn care knowledge system. Multimedia techniques and applications were researched throughout the design and production process in order to blend intrinsic knowledge material with digital technology to produce new educational ideas.

Research on the Strategy of Improving the Choral Conducting Ability of Music Majors

According to the actual needs of the development of my country's education industry, optimize the content of professional education, arrange class hours and teaching progress reasonably and standardly, divide the chorus conductor education work into three stages, and design the content of special education guidance at different stages; add chorus conductors for music majors Practical activities to strengthen students' practical level of theoretical knowledge.

A Dilemma for Driver on Virtues of Ignorance

For Julia Driver, some virtues involve ignorance. Modesty, for example, is a disposition to underestimate self-worth, and blind charity is a disposition not to see others’ defects. Such “virtues of ignorance,” she argues, serve as counterexamples to the Aristotelian view that virtue requires intellectual excellence. But Driver seems to face a dilemma: if virtues of ignorance involve ignorance of valuable knowledge, then they do not merit virtue status; but if they involve ignorance of trivial knowledge, then they do not preclude intellectual excellence. So, either there are no virtues of ignorance, or there are no virtues of ignorance – at least not the sort of ignorance that precludes intellectual excellence. Virtues of ignorance therefore fail as counterexamples to Aristotelian virtue theory.

Shared striatal activity in decisions to satisfy curiosity and hunger at the risk of electric shocks.

Curiosity is often portrayed as a desirable feature of human faculty. However, curiosity may come at a cost that sometimes puts people in harmful situations. Here, using a set of behavioural and neuroimaging experiments with stimuli that strongly trigger curiosity (for example, magic tricks), we examine the psychological and neural mechanisms underlying the motivational effect of curiosity. We consistently demonstrate that across different samples, people are indeed willing to gamble, subjecting themselves to electric shocks to satisfy their curiosity for trivial knowledge that carries no apparent instrumental value. Also, this influence of curiosity shares common neural mechanisms with that of hunger for food. In particular, we show that acceptance (compared to rejection) of curiosity-driven or incentive-driven gambles is accompanied by enhanced activity in the ventral striatum when curiosity or hunger was elicited, which extends into the dorsal striatum when participants made a decision.

Embedding prior knowledge about measurement matrix into neural networks for compressed sensing

Different algorithms have been proposed for Compressed Sensing (CS). One of the most popular frameworks is Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (OMP). And there are many variants of it. Among various versions, a family of algorithms treats the distribution over an original signal as prior knowledge to obtain a training set for the model, and it achieves a good performance. However, there is other trivial prior knowledge about the measurement matrix that has never been used in compressed sensing in previous work. Hence, we propose a new method to embed the prior knowledge about the measurement matrix and distribution over the original signal into the neural networks for CS. In the end, the empirical support shows that the proposed method brings out a significant improvement.

Using the Random Forest Algorithm for Searching Behavior Patterns in Electronic Health Records

The search for information associated with qualitative data is usually done using data mining algorithms, the presented research analyzes data of patients with essential hypertension (HTA), patients who have developed hypertension but there is no clear reason why it has occurred. In this research, a search of behavioral patterns was performed in the data associated with the clinical records of 8470 patients using the Random Forest algorithm. As a case study, the proposal focuses on finding the relationship between the different pathologies or factors associated to Hypertensive patients (other diseases for example). The findings validate the right use of the algorithm due to the results obtained agrees with the knowledge defined and validated in the literature. Thus, trivial knowledge can be obtained with the algorithm used. However, non-trivial knowledge was also obtained given the analysis performed on a total of 4408 data of female patients and 4062 of male patients showed a great difference between the factors or pathologies that a patient presents when classified according to their sex, thus another deep study must be carried out closely with experts in the area of the health as future research.

Structural Analyses of AC4 Protein of Sri Lankan Cassava Mosaic Virus

RNA silencing is one of the important phenomenon in plant defense mechanism, it actively protect host plants against viral infections. Existing viruses must have developed counter defense strategies to survive this arms race. Such counter defense strategy is the viral silencing suppressor (VSRs) which have been reported to directly interfere with the various steps leading to the interference of viral RNAs. Most identified VSRs are multifunctional, besides being RNA-silencing suppressors, they often perform essential roles by functioning as coat proteins, helper components for viral transmission, replicases and movement proteins, proteases or transcriptional regulators. One such identified VSR is AC4 of Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus strain. Trivial knowledge about the structure –function relationship of this VSR leads to this work, where we focus on the structure generation by modelling to identify the mode of interactions with the various effector molecules of the silencing pathways. Structural analyses have been performed to screen interacting residues. Results indicate conserved structural features which signify propensity of functional interactions and further shows that this VSR can be a potent tool for the analysis of RNA silencing mechanisms and the relationships between different silencing pathways and VSRs.

A novel unsupervised fuzzy clustering method for preprocessing of quantitative attributes in association rule mining

In Association rule mining, the quantitative attribute values are converted into Boolean values using fixed intervals. Conventional association rule mining algorithms are then applied to find relations among the attribute values. These intervals may not be concise and meaningful enough for human users to easily obtain non trivial knowledge from those rules discovered. Clustering techniques can be used for segmenting quantitative values into meaningful groups instead of fixed intervals. But the conventional clustering techniques like k-means and c-means require the user to specify the number of clusters and initial cluster centres. This initialization is one of the major challenges of clustering. A novel fuzzy based unsupervised clustering algorithm proposed by the authors is extended to segment quantitative values into fuzzy clusters in this paper. Membership values of quantitative items in the partitioning fuzzy clusters are used with weighted fuzzy rule mining techniques to find natural association rules. This fuzzy based method for handling quantitative attributes is compared with that of fixed intervals and segmenting using conventional k-means clustering method along with Apriori algorithm.

IBDsite: a Galaxy-interacting, integrative database for supporting inflammatory bowel disease high throughput data analysis

BackgroundInflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) refer to a group of inflammatory conditions concerning colon and small intestine, which cause socially uncomfortable symptoms and often are associated with an increased risk of colon cancer. IBD are complex disorders, which rely on genetic susceptibility, environmental factors, deregulation of the immune system, and host relationship with commensal microbiota. The complexity of these pathologies makes difficult to clearly understand the mechanisms of their onset. Therefore, the study of IBD must be faced exploiting an integrated and multilevel approach, ranging from genes, transcripts and proteins to pathways altered in affected tissues, and carefully considering their regulatory mechanisms, which may intervene in the pathology onset. It is also crucial to have a knowledge base about the symbiotic bacteria that are hosted in the human gut. To date, much data exist regarding IBD and human commensal bacteria, but this information is sparse in literature and no free resource provides a homogeneously and rationally integrated view of biomolecular data related to these pathologies.MethodsHuman genes altered in IBD have been collected from literature, paying particular interest for the immune system alterations prompted by the interaction with the gut microbiome. This process has been performed manually to assure the reliability of collected data. Heterogeneous metadata from different sources have been automatically formatted and integrated in order to enrich information about these altered genes. A user-friendly web interface has been created for easy access to structured data. Tools such as gene clustering coefficients, all-pairs shortest paths and pathway lengths calculation have been developed to provide data analysis support. Moreover, the implemented resource is compliant to the Galaxy framework, allowing the collected data to be exploited in the context of high throughput bioinformatics analysis.ResultsTo fill the lack of a reference resource for 'omics' science analysis in the context of IBD, we developed the IBDsite (available at http://www.itb.cnr.it/ibd), a disease-oriented platform, which collects data related to biomolecular mechanisms involved in the IBD onset. The resource provides a section devoted to human genes identified as altered in IBD, which can be queried at different biomolecular levels and visualised in gene-centred report pages. Furthermore, the system presents information related to the gut microbiota involved in IBD affected patients. The IBDsite is compliant with all Galaxy installations (in particular, it can be accessed from our custom version of Galaxy, http://www.itb.cnr.it/galaxy), in order to facilitate high-throughput data integration and to enable evaluations of the genomic basis of these diseases, complementing the tools embedded in the IBDsite.ConclusionsLots of sparse data exist concerning IBD studies, but no on-line resource homogeneously and rationally integrate and collect them. The IBDsite is an attempt to group available information regarding human genes and microbial aspects related to IBD, by means of a multilevel mining tool. Moreover, it constitutes a knowledge base to filter, annotate and understand new experimental data in order to formulate new scientific hypotheses, thanks to the possibility of integrating genomics aspects by employing the Galaxy framework. Discussed use-cases demonstrate that the developed system is useful to infer not trivial knowledge from the existing widespread data or from novel experiments.

Four Alternative Futures for Education in the United States: It's Our Choice.

Abstract. This article discusses four possible futures toward which educational systems might direct our society. The first is a future dominated by rote memorizers. The second is a future of critical thinkers. The third is a future of successfully intelligent thinkers. The fourth is a future of wise thinkers. Each future builds on previous one. Which one should our schools aspire to? ********** One way of conceiving of task of describing future of education in United States is to view it as a prediction task. We have to guess what future will hold. To a large extent, of course, any exercise such as this one must be a forecasting task. But word prediction implies a certain passivity in face of future that I believe we should put aside. To a large extent, forecasting future of education is a selection task. We, as a nation, get to choose our own future. What future will we choose? I describe here four (of many possible) futures. Each builds on previous one and adds something to it. What future would you choose? Future 1: The Ideal of Walking Encyclopedia Future 1 is future that most children around world face. The education they receive emphasizes rote memorization of whatever it is that powers that be in society think is worth rote memorizing. In a religious environment, it might be Bible, Koran, or some other holy book. In a secular environment, it might be a set of disconnected facts about exports of various countries or dates of certain treaties. Such training may be useful for those who build their lives expecting others to do what they have done; it will not be useful in developing critical-thinking skills children will need to cope in a flexible way with a rapidly changing environment. This future is one that many people support. I recently received an e-mail from an individual who plans to become the smartest person in world. His plan is receiving media attention. His method is to read entire Encyclopedia Britannica. Lest this view sound limited to him, keep in mind that TV quiz shows, as well as national spelling and geography bees, measure how smart their contestants are in terms of their ability to retrieve large numbers of facts, many of which are of little relevance outside context of contest. There is no particular reason why sheer memorization should lead to development of critical-thinking skills. Rote memorization requires recital and repetition. Critical thinking requires skillful analysis, evaluation, and interpretation. Of course, one cannot think without something to think about. Children or adults need a knowledge base with which to think. But there is a difference between a knowledge base and a store of information. Any repository of facts or supposed facts and ideas can be a store of information. One could memorize a German-English dictionary and know translation of each of words from German to English and vice versa. In this case, one would have a large store of information, but a trivial knowledge base. A knowledge base is for use. The information must be stored in an organized way that makes it easily retrievable when needed and at call of different kinds of retrieval cues, whether on a test in school or on larger test that is life. Too many teachers and students alike confuse two. They believe that merely knowing an unrelated collection of poorly integrated facts will constitute a child's having developed a knowledge base. In fact, it will constitute a store of information, much of which may be unusable. One can end up with a situation similar to that of an erased computer disc. The data are not truly erased. They are still on disc, unless one has taken special measures to ensure that data are wiped clean. Rather, data have simply become inaccessible. They no longer have a normal means of being called up. Only a computer specialist can retrieve them, often with difficulty, and usually in degraded form. …

Using Sociology to Extend Psychological Accounts of Cognitive Development

Sociology and psychology share an interest in the acquisition of knowledge. The two traditions, however, are relatively disconnected, and psychologists rarely take advantage of the insights offered by sociologists. The present paper brings out two aspects of development strongly emphasized in sociological accounts but relatively neglected in psychological accounts. One is the acquisition of values about knowledge and skill (e.g., ideas about important skills, trivial knowledge, elegant solutions, or proper ways to learn particular subjects). The other is the need to consider the social environment not as neutral, benign, or free-market in quality, but as often directive, controlling, and heavily invested in the individual’s acquiring some ideas and avoiding others. The presence of these two aspects is noted in the work of 4 sociologists (Berger, Habermas, Bourdieu, and Foucault). The paper outlines how ideas contributed by these sociologists can be added to psychological accounts, with an emphasis on additions that (a) extend an interest already present in psychological theory, or (b) combine a new question about the nature and conditions of development with a specific psychological study that could provide a feasible starting point for research.

EXPERT AND NAIVE RATERS USING THE PAQ: DOES IT MATTER?

A finding by Smith and Hakel (1979) is that job expert ratings on the PAQ correlate highly with ratings obtained from college students who are given no information about jobs other than their titles. One possible explanation for this finding is that the PAQ measures only trivial or common knowledge about work that both experts and naive observers possess. This particular view, of course, has serious implications for the use of the PAQ. In this paper we point out a problem in the way Smith and Hakel calculated the convergent validity between expert raters and naive raters. We also present the results from a replication study that indicate convergent validities are much lower than those reported by Smith and Hakel. Additional points are presented in order to caution against the interpretation that the PAQ measures only common knowledge about jobs.
