Abstract:
Online education continues to evolve and grow dramatically at colleges and universities across the globe. Today’s society is comprised of people who are increasingly busy with work and family obligations and who are looking for more flexible and expedited avenues for higher education. Institutions seek to meet these new demands by offering online distance educational opportunities while increasing cash flow for their college. Unfortunately the pitfalls to this rush to meet online demand results in what some researchers assert are inadequate quality content and curriculum. Others indicate there

Abstract:
Face recognition is a complex and difficult process due to various factors such as variability of illumination, occlusion, face specific characteristics like hair, glasses, beard, etc., and other similar problems affecting computer vision problems. Using a system that offers robust and consistent results for face recognition, various applications such as identification for law enforcement, secure system access, computer human interaction, etc., can be automated successfully. Different methods exist to solve the face recognition problem. Principal component analysis, Independent component analy

Abstract:
Different approaches to the face recognition are studied in this thesis. These approaches are PCA (Eigenface), Kernel Eigenface and Fisher LDA. Principal component analysis extracts the most important information contained in the face to construct a computational model that best describes the face. In Eigenface approach, variation between the face images are described by using a set of characteristic face images in order to find out the eigenvectors (Eigenfaces) of the covariance matrix of the distribution, spanned by a training set of face images. Then, every face image is represented by a li

Eyewitness recognition is acknowledged to be prone to error but there is less understanding of difficulty in discriminating unfamiliar faces. This thesis examined the effects of face perception on identification of facial composites, and on unfamiliar face image comparison. Facial composites depict face memories by reconstructing features and configurations to form a likeness. They are generally reconstructed from an unfamiliar face memory, and will be unavoidably flawed.

Abstract:
The integer factorisation problem (FACT) is a well-known number-theoreticproblem, with many applications in areas such as cryptography. An instanceof a FACT problem (a number n such that n = p × q) can be reduced to aninstance of the conjunctive normal form boolean satisfiability problem (CNF-SAT), a well-known NP-complete problem. Some applications of this is toutilize advances in SAT solving for solving FACT, and for creating difficultCNF-SAT instances.This report compares four different reductions from FACT to CNF-SAT,based on the full adder, array multiplier and Wallace tree multiplier cir

Abstract:
The phenomenon of fake news has a significant impact on our social life, especially in the political world. Fake news detection is an emerging area of research. The sharing of infor-mation on the Web, primarily through Web-based online media, is increasing. The ability to identify, evaluate, and process this information is of great importance. Deliberately created disinformation is being generated on the Internet, either intentionally or unintentionally. This is affecting a more significant segment of society that is being blinded by technology. This paper illustrates models and methods for de

Abstract:
Ethiopia and Sweden are two countries that do not feature together often, but they both face increasing problems with fake news. This thesis is researching whether the similarities between individuals from these countries are greater than the differences between the nations. Meaningful differences in attitudes to media and how to tell fake from fact might indicate that media literacy education has to focus on different aspects, depending on the country. A total of 20 respondents from Ethiopia and Sweden were interviewed about their social media use and what methods they employ and signs they l

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO<br>Este estudo propõe a apresentação de um modelo de multimeios, denominado CAPA, capaz de analisar e comparar um elenco de 39 pesticidas num ambiente pré-determinado sob regime estacionário. O CAPA (Calculadora para Avaliação de Pesticidas no Ambiente) foi desenvolvido baseado no modelo ESTAC FATE (desenvolvido pelo Canadian Environmental Modelling Centre,Trent University, Canadá ). O modelo funciona no Excel, é programado em Visual Basic, usa a fugacidade como critério de equilíbrio e avalia os pesticidas em três diferentes níveis: Ní
