Abstract:
Recognition of hand gestures has great importance for Human-computer interaction (HCI). The human hand is very small with complex junctions compared with the entire human body, hence recognizing the human hand is not an easy task. By using the hand gesture recognition the hand point/coordinates of hands can be detected using which we can make many impossible happens. Our work indicates one such finding, that is, VIRTUAL PAINTER. In our project, the main objective is to display the words on the monitor screen which we write on air in front of the webcam. This is done by recognizing the human hand through the normal webcam of a computer and the hand points are detected using the MediaPipe python library. Using the detected hand points the count of opened fingers is stored. When the index and middle fingers are open it means it is in Selection mode and when only the index finger is open it is in drawing mode. In Selection mode, the colors using which we want to draw can be selected from the list of colors that are made displayed on the screen. In drawing mode, the content that is written in front of the camera on air is drawn on the monitor screen. The application of this implementation can be used in many places where immediate implementation or explanation is needed.

Abstract:
Hand washing is a process that mechanically removes dirt and debris from the skin of the hands using plain soap and water. The purpose of this community service is to use hand sanitizers for adolescent compliance with washing hands in the Lubuk Pakam Village, Weekend. The community service method uses this form of pre-experimental research carried out with a one-group pretest-posttest design in which there is a pretest (before treatment). The population of this community service is 41 teenagers with a sampling technique using total sampling. The results of community service for hand washing compliance before using hand sanitizers obtained the number of "obedient" as many as 8 people (19.5%), compared to 30 (73.2%). -test obtained p-value = 0.000 < a = 0.05, then the hypothesis is accepted, so it can be concluded that there is the use of hand sanitizers on hand washing compliance in Lubuk Pakam weekend. Conclusion: teenagers want to wash their hands using hand sanitizer after direct contact with strangers to prevent cross infection with the covid 19 virus.

Abstract:
Entomological surveillance is an integral component of surveillance activities for any vector-borne disease. The vector surveillance in a given area shall depend on the laid down objective and keeping in view of the expected outcome. The sampling strategy for vector surveillance shall depend on routine entomological surveillance, outbreak situation and insecticide resistance monitoring. The selection of any sampling strategy and technique should always be kept in mind for its appropriate application depending on the target species. The sampling strategy shall imply that vector surveillance teams are supposed to select different options depending on the short or long term study at hand. The present ongoing operational vector sampling methods usually lack standardisation, quantitative comparisons across different situations in case of outbreak situations and one time measurements, and it makes it difficult to assess the real situation. The sampling strategy should always meet the requirement of the laid objectives to fulfil the desired outcome. The present document is an attempt to act as a guiding principle for use as appropriate sampling strategy for any vector-borne diseases in the country.

Abstract:
The purpose of the current study was to determine the accuracy of a given heated dorsal hand vein (HDHV) measurement in predicting a simultaneous arterial measurement and to validate this technique for use in stable isotope studies. Twenty catheterizations of the femoral artery, femoral vein, and a dorsal hand vein were performed in 13 healthy male subjects. Simultaneous blood samples were obtained from all three sites during primed continuous infusions of L-[1-13C]leucine (Leu) and L-[ring-2H5]phenylalanine (Phe) in the postabsorptive state, with or without intravenous glucose infusion. Relationships were examined by linear regression analysis, with 95% prediction intervals for femoral arterial values determined using the HDHV-derived values as independent variable. Glucose concentrations and isotopic enrichments of ketoisocaproate (KIC), Leu, and Phe were similar in HDHV- and arterial-derived blood, with slopes between 0.9414 and 1.0008, intercepts not different from zero, and r2 values of 0.7613 or greater (P < 0.05). Intercepts for KIC, Leu, and Phe concentrations all were different from zero (P < 0.05), and slopes ranged between 0.7560 and 0.8625. For each analysis the HDHV sample correlated better with the femoral arterial sample than with the femoral venous sample. These data support the use of HDHV sampling as a surrogate for direct arterial sampling but document significant limitations in the technique.

Abstract:
Metamorphic mechanisms are mechanisms which have many different motion branches, regions in configuration space where the mechanism has different kinds of motion. Such mechanisms are able to transition from one branch to another to adapt to changing task requirements. This metamorphosis happens at the points in configuration space where these branches intersect, which are usually singular configurations. Analysing and controlling these mechanisms with generalised methods is usually very tedious and inefficient. This thesis starts by examining the kinematics and singularities of one kind of metamorphic mechanisms with the aim of visualisation and control. The type of mechanisms studied are metamorphic mechanisms based on spherical linkages. In particular, the variable axis (vA) joint-based metamorphic manipulator and the KCL metamorphic hand. Then simulations, a prototype, and a carton folding operation using the metamorphic hand are presented. First, the metamorphosis of a metamorphic manipulator is studied. The manipulator comprises three limbs, a fixed base, and a moving platform. The limbs are connected to the base and platform by the vA joint. A vA joint metamorphosis trajectory generation algorithm in the context of the metamorphic manipulator is developed. Spherical trigonometry takes centre stage in the development of this metamorphosis algorithm. Next, the kinematics of spherical ve-bar mechanisms are solved through spherical trigonometry. This kind of mechanism is used as the palm of the KCL metamorphic hand. The singularities of this class of mechanisms are identified. Singularity avoidance design criteria are presented. A solution is derived for the singular but controllable configurations. A new antagonistic tendon drive system is developed for the hand. The most important hand joints are controlled by two antagonistic tendons. The rest of the finger joints use tendons antagonised by springs and coupled with passive tendons. Force sensitive resistors are used in the design of tendon tension sensors. These sensors are then integrated into compact tendon sensing and actuation assemblies. Sampling time issues are identified and analysed. A CAN bus is used with the CANOpen protocol. A CANOpen protocol router is developed to reduce sampling time and control loop iteration duration. Finally, an integrated metamorphic hand is built. Its control system is discussed and the hand is used to manipulate an articulated object, an origami-style packaging carton.

Abstract:
This works examines the question whether a vapour-liquid phase transition exists in systems of particles with purely dipolar interactions, a topic which has been the subject of a longstanding debate. Monte Carlo simulation results for two modi operandi to tackle this issue are presented. One approach examines the phase behaviour of fluids of charged hard dumbbells (CHD), each made up of two oppositely charged hard spheres with diameters σ and separation d. In the limit d/σ → 0, and with the temperature scaled accordingly, the system corresponds to dipolar hard spheres (DHS) while for larger values of d ionic interactions are dominant. The crossover between ionic and dipolar regimes is examined and a linear variation of the critical temperature T*c in dipolar reduced units as a function of d is observed, giving rise to an extrapolated T*cDHS ≈ 0:15. The second approach focuses on the dipolar Yukawa hard sphere (DYHS)fluid, which is given by a dipolar hard sphere and an attractive isotropic interaction Y of the Yukawa tail form. In this case, the DHS limit is obtained for Y → 0. It is found that T*c depends linearly on the isotropic interaction strength Y over a wide range, coinciding with the results for the CHD model and extrapolating to a similar value of T*c;DHS. However, with the use of specially adapted biased Monte Carlo techniques which are highly efficient, it is shown that the linear variation of T*c is violated for very small values of the Yukawa interaction strength, almost two orders of magnitude smaller than the characteristic dipolar interaction energy. It is found that phase separation is not observable beyond a critical value of the Yukawa energy parameter, even though in thermodynamic and structural terms, the DYHS and DHS systems are very similar. It is suggested that either some very subtle physics distinguishes the DYHS and DHS systems, or the observation of a phase transition in DHSs is precluded by finite-size effects. In the context of phase separation in highly correlated fluids, new flat-histogram Monte Carlo simulation techniques based on the Wang-Landau algorithm are evaluated and shown to be useful tools. This work presents a general and unifying framework for deriving Monte Carlo acceptance rules which facilitate flat histogram sampling. The framework yields uniform sampling rules for thermodynamic states given either by the mechanically extensive variables appearing in the Hamiltonian or, equivalently, uniformly sample the thermodynamic fields which are conjugate to these mechanical variables.

Abstract:
Denna rapport täcker arbetsprocessen bakom att skapa en spektrumanalysator. Läsaren kommer att få läsa om den valda metoden men även alternativa metoder. Utöver detta kommer även de teoretiska delarna bakom varje moment att undersökas samt jämföras med potentiella alternativa lösningar. Projektet har utförts på uppdrag av KA Automation. Syftet med projektet var att skapa en basplattform för analys av ljudfrekvenser. Målet med detta var att kunna identifiera ljudegenskaper i form av frekvenserna hos exempelvis servomotorer i vattenpumpar. Tanken var att i ett senare utvecklingsskede kunna identifiera om och när nya frekvenser dykt upp i ljudprofilen vilket i sådana fall kan resultera i att motorn är i behov av service. Basplattformen är uppbyggd med hjälp av C# och ljudbehandlingsbiblioteket NAudio. Från resultatet kan slutsatsen dras att detta program kan analysera ljud och visa de olika frekvensernas styrka och därmed är en lämplig basplattform för vidareutveckling.<br>This report will cover the work process behind creating a spectrum analyzer. The reader will be able to read about the chosen method but also the alternative methods. Apart from this the theoretical parts behind every moment will also be covered and compared to potential alternative solutions. The project has been carried out on behalf of KA Automation. The purpose of the project was to create a base for analyzing sound frequencies. The goal was to be able to identify sound properties in the form of frequencies in servo motors in for example water pumps. The idea was to be able to in a later development stage be able to identify when new frequencies have entered the audio profile which might result in the motor to be in need of service. The base is created with the help of C# and the sound library NAudio. From the result one can conclude that this program can analyze sound and display the magnitude of its frequency components and is therefore a suitable base for future development.

Introducción. El objetivo del presente estudio es determinar si existe correlación entre los conocimientos sobre las consecuencias de la obesidad y el grado de actividad física de las personas. Métodos. Se realizó un estudio transversal analítico durante los años 2013 y 2014. Participaron 215 alumnos de pregrado seleccionados por conveniencia no relacionados a carreras del campo de la salud en una universidad de Lima, Perú. Se evaluó el grado de actividad física utilizando el International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) y el nivel de conocimientos sobre consecuencias de la obesidad utilizando la escala Obesity Risk Knowledge-10 (ORK-10). También, se consignó las fuentes de información de donde obtuvieron el conocimiento para responder dicho cuestionario. Resultados. La mediana de edad fue 20 (rango intercuartílico=4) y 63% eran mujeres. De acuerdo al IPAQ, 53,9% realizaban actividad física alta, 35,4%, moderada y 10,7%, leve. Se encontró una correlación muy baja (rs=0,06) entre el puntaje del ORK-10 y la cantidad de equivalentes metabólicos/minuto consumidos por semana, pero no era significativa (p=0,38). Las personas informadas por medios de comunicación y por personal de salud obtuvieron mayores puntajes en el ORK- 10 que quienes se informaron por otras vías (p<0,05). Conclusiones. La correlación entre los conocimientos sobre consecuencias de la obesidad y el grado de actividad física es muy baja. Es necesario utilizar enfoques multidisciplinarios que incluyan todos los determinantes de la realización de actividad física para poder lograr cambios en la conducta de la población.

In order to improve the efficiency based on the existing motion recognition algorithm, and to solve the existing motion recognition algorithm can only classify the video with the cut segment, and can not directly deal with the long-term video, we propose two solutions. (1) Adaptive sampling - We detect the motion speed in the video through moving target detection, determine the way of subsequent image frame sampling, to reduce the problem of redundant frame recognition; (2) Time activity detection - through the above The analysis of the speed of the movement, as well as the object detection of the person tag, to determine the meaningful segment in the video. Experiments show that through the integration of (1) and (2), the system can achieve high-efficiency film motion recognition and analyze meaningful movie functions.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立臺北科技大學<br>電機工程系研究所<br>101<br>This paper presents a real-time 3D hand posture estimation with multiple importance sampling particle filter. A RGB-D camera is utilized here to separate the foreground hand and background by integrating the RGB image and depth image. By extracting the feature points of the hand, a 3D hand model for the individual user can be constructed for hand tracking later. Since the hand motion model has a lot of degree of freedoms, the hand posture estimation is a high dimensional system. In order to reduce the dimension of estimation, a hierarchical method is adopted to separate the hand posture estimation as: the in-plane pose of palm first, the out-plane pose of palm second, and finally the pose of fingers. The hand posture related to the RGB-D camera is distinguished into five modes and described by a finite state machine. The transition relation between each mode can be decided by the previous estimation and hand visual information. According to the selected mode, the samples of the particle filter will be efficiently drawn by the corresponding importance function and verified by the suitable visual likelihood function. The experiments have validated the accurate 3D hand posture estimation with near real-time performance.

Abstract:
The folding mechanism of several β-structures (e.g., β-hairpins and β-sheets) was studied using newly developed enhanced sampling methods along with MD simulations in all implicit solvent environments. The influence of different implicit solvent models on the folding simulation of β-structure was also tested. Through the analysis of the free energy landscape as the function of several suitable reaction coordinates, we observed that the folding of β-hairpins is actually a two-state transition. In addition, the folding free energy landscapes for those related hairpins indicate the apparent sequence dependence, which demonstrates different folding mechanisms of similar β-structures of varied sequence. We also found that the stability of backbone hydrogen bonds is determined by the turn sequence and the composition of hydrophobic core cluster in β-structures. Neither of these findings was reported before. The processive movement of kinesin was also studied at the mesoscopic level. We developed a simple physical model to understand the asymmetric hand-over-hand mechanism of the kinesin walking on the microtubule. The hand-over-hand motion of the conventional kinesin is reproduced in our model and good agreement is achieved between calculated and experimental results. The experimentally observed limping of the truncated kinesin is also perfectly described by our model. The global conformational change of kinesin heads (e.g., the power stroke of neck-linkers which works as lever-arms during the kinesin walking, the transition between open and closed states of the switch region of the nucleotide binding domain in each head induced by the nucleotide binding and release) was studied for both dimeric and monomeric kinesins using a coarse-grained model, anisotropic network model (ANM). At the same time Langevin mode analysis was used to study the solvent influence on the motions of the kinesin head mimicked by ANM. Additionally, the correlation between the neck-linker and the nucleotide binding site was also studied for dimeric and monomeric kinesins. The former shows the apparent correlation between two subdomains whereas the latter does not, which may explain the experimental observation that only the dimeric kinesin is capable of walking processively on the microtubule.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the challenges that researchers face when conducting surveys on hard-to-survey populations. It begins with an overview of the various conditions that can make it difficult to include some populations in studies or surveys. This includes the population’s being hard to identify and locate or hard to persuade or interview and even difficulty in defining a sampling frame. The chapter then suggests various sampling approaches that may help researchers overcome challenges when studying hard-to-survey populations. It uses internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Nepal as an example of those who are hard to locate and discusses how the Nepal Forced Migration Survey used several of the techniques discussed to collect a representative sample from this population after the 1996–2006 Maoist insurgency. This chapter demonstrates that with careful planning and creative approaches, researchers can collect quality data from hard-to-survey populations.

Abstract:
This chapter looks at Markov Chain Monte Carlo techniques to generate hard- and soft-constrained exponential random graph ensembles. The essence is to define a Markov chain based on ergodic randomization moves acting on a network with transition probabilities which satisfy detailed balance. This is sufficient to ensure that the Markov chain will sample from the ensemble with the desired probabilities. This chapter studies several commonly seen randomization move sets and carefully defines acceptance probabilities for a range of different ensembles using both the Metropolis–Hastings and the Glauber prescription. Particular care is paid to describe and avoid the pitfalls that can occur in defining randomization moves for hard-constrained ensembles, and applying them without introducing inadvertent bias (i.e. defining and comparing protocols including switch-and-hold and mobility).

Abstract:
Parents and teachers can use this book to engage children with the world outside by opening their eyes to fascinating common bird species. Once upon a time, common bird species all had well-known stories associated with them. Legends and folklore about birds abound in almost every culture. It's likely their ability to fly, their beauty and grace, their distinctive and puzzling calls, and the fact that they live all around us is what makes them popular subjects for fables. This book presents a sampling of traditional bird tales retold in a fresh way that makes them especially relevant and memorable for today's children. Each story is complemented by a "Feathered Fact File," a "Backyard Bird Watching Tip" for kids, a classroom/home school activity suggestion, and a story sharing suggestion for parents and teachers. The teaching activities are designed with flexibility so that they may be used to either introduce new concepts of science and math or reinforce familiar concepts in a hands-on fashion. Reading selections are written at third to fourth grade reading levels, but are designed to engage both younger listeners and older readers.

This chapter presents some theoretical tools for defining random graph ensembles systematically via soft or hard topological constraints including working through some properties of the Erdös-Rényi random graph ensemble, which is the simplest non-trivial random graph ensemble where links appear between two nodes with a fixed probability p. The chapter sets out the central representation of graph generation as the result of a discrete-time Markovian stochastic process. This unites the two flavours of graph generation approaches – because they can be viewed as simply moving forwards or backwards through this representation. It is possible to define a random graph by an algorithm, and then calculate the associated stationary probability. The alternative approach is to specify sampling weights and then to construct an algorithm that will have these weights as the stationary probabilities upon convergence.

Abstract:
This chapter looks at further topics pertaining to the effective use of Markov Chain Monte Carlo to sample from hard- and soft-constrained exponential random graph models. The chapter considers the question of how moves can be sampled efficiently without introducing unintended bias. It is shown mathematically and numerically that apparently very similar methods of picking out moves can give rise to significant differences in the average topology of the networks generated by the MCMC process. The general discussion in complemented with pseudocode in the relevant section of the Algorithms chapter, which explicitly sets out some accurate and practical move sampling approaches. The chapter also describes how the MCMC equilibrium probabilities can be purposely deformed to, for example, target desired correlations between degrees of connected nodes. The mathematical exposition is complemented with graphs showing the results of numerical simulations.

Abstract:
This chapter examines how the late-Victorian folklorist and critic Andrew Lang reinvented the idea of many-sidedness as a populist polemic—one that showed W. B. Yeats how to recuperate the old moves of literary nationalism for a global modernism. Although Lang had been Arnold’s student at Oxford, his seminal anthropological treatises insisted that many-sidedness could best be cultivated not by sampling “the best which has been thought and said in the world” but rather by omnivorously embracing ancient folk tales alongside pop fiction. Yet Lang’s populism was also predicated upon a crypto-Romantic view of folklore as talismans of an endangered authenticity out of place in the modern world. This buried essentialism ultimately alienated Lang from mainstream anthropology, but it would also teach the young Yeats that presenting the national as the primitive and the primitive as the occult allowed one to frame Irish folk literature as simultaneously local and cosmopolitan.

Abstract:
In the Atlantic world in the centuries from 1450 to 1850, tumultuous changes in ecology had outsized impacts on human affairs. Historians have already laid useful foundations for an environmental history of the Atlantic world. Atlantic West Africa from Senegambia to the Gulf of Guinea participated in the ecological Atlantic by providing a few cultigens to the Americas, its share of pathogens (notably malaria and yellow fever), and above all by supplying the majority of the workforce — several million slaves and their descendants — who would remake the ecology of the Atlantic. This article examines pan-Atlantic processes such as climate change. It also summarises the important themes which are the most central to the whole subject: the Columbian Exchange, including its often-neglected African components, and the ecology of plantations, slavery, and slave trades. This provides some sampling of the ecological regions of the Atlantic, as well as of the commodities and cultural processes involved.

Abstract:
AbstractAn investment decision is a discretion adopted by investors in selecting or determining the placement of their investment funds. Investments are always fraught with uncertainty, as the investment occurs in the present while the benefits come in the future. Investment is essentially the deployment of capital now to gain profit in the future. This study aims to examine the effect of financial literacy, risk perception, and overconfidence on cryptocurrency investment decisions while taking investment experience as a moderating variable. The data used were primary data collected directly from 200 respondents. The sampling technique used was non-probability sampling with a purposive sampling technique. Respondents who completed questionnaires were examined quantitatively, and subsequently; SPSS was employed as an analytical tool. The results indicate that financial literacy and risk perception have a significant effect on cryptocurrency investment decisions. On the other hand, overconfidence has no significant effect on cryptocurrency investment decisions. In addition, investment experience has a positive and significant effect on investment decisions. Investment experience has a significant moderating effect between financial literacy and risk perception toward cryptocurrency investment decisions. However, investment experience has no significant effect as a moderating variable between overconfidence and cryptocurrency investment decisions.

Abstract:
Technology development has led to a growing availability of low-cost data ready-to-use, frequently derived from large scale observations (i.e. data from pervasive systems like GPS sensors, or remote sensing data from earth observation technologies). Oftentimes, these data can’t directly answer specific questions posed by researchers and data users, or even if they can they are subject to measurement errors or self-selection bias. In both cases it is still necessary to rely, at least partially, on ad-hoc probabilistic surveys. On the other hand, the precision and quality of surveys estimates can be improved by using the data derived from these new sources as auxiliary information in the design phase and/or in the estimation phase. We present a sequential sampling strategy, suitable to investigate a spatially-related phenomenon, which exploits the auxiliary information at design level in order to obtain efficient estimates when the relation between the auxiliary and study variables it is not completely known and/or is not univocally defined for the whole population under study. Using this strategy the final sample is obtained after two (or more) steps: (i) in the first step we collect an initial sample of observations on the target variable, which is used also to investigate the relation between the auxiliary and study variables; (ii) then, this relation is exploited to target and tailor the subsequent sampling step; (iii) additional steps can be included by applying the procedure iteratively. The performance of the suggested strategy is investigated through Monte Carlo experiments by considering several scenarios, which differ in the distributions of the auxiliary and study variables and in their relation.

AbstractBased on financial report data published by coal sub-sector companies on the IDX website from 2018 to 2020, this study attempts to assess the effect of profitability, leverage, incentives, and gender diversity on tax avoidance. In this study, sampling was done with the use of the STATA program and multiple regression analysis tests on the target population. The total number of samples analyzed in this research was 63. The findings of this study reveal that profitability has a favorable and significant impact on tax avoidance, based on the tests that were conducted. Gender diversity and leverage, on the other hand, have a positive and minor effect on tax avoidance, while incentives have a negative and large effect.

Abstract:
We assess the reliability and validity of cognitive and socioemotional skills measures and investigate the correlation between schooling, skills acquisition, and labor earnings. Our primary data from Pakistan incorporates two innovations related to measurement and sampling. With regard to measurement, we developed and implemented a battery of instruments intended to capture cognitive and socioemotional skills among young adults. With regard to sampling, we use a panel that follows respondents from their original rural locations in 2003 to their residences in 2018, a period over which 38% of respondents left their native villages. We first show that in terms of their validity and reliability, our skills measures compare favorably to previous measurement attempts in low- and middle-income countries. We then document that in our data (a) more years of schooling are correlated with higher cognitive and socioemotional skills; (b) labor earnings are correlated with cognitive and socioemotional skills as well as years of schooling and; (c) the earnings-skills correlations depend on respondents’ migration status. The magnitude of the correlations between schooling and skills on the one hand and earnings and skills on the other is consistent with a widespread concern that such skills are underproduced in the schooling system.

Abstract:
Hidden populations, such as irregular migrants, often elude traditional probabilistic sampling methods. In situations like these, chain-referral sampling techniques like Respondent-Driven Surveys (RDS) offer an effective solution. RDS, a variant of network sampling sometimes referred to as “snowball” sampling, estimates weights based on the network structures of friends and acquaintances formed during the sampling process. This ensures the samples are representative of the larger population. However, one significant limitation of these methods is the rigidity of the weights. When faced with participant attrition, recalibrating these weights to ensure continued representation poses a challenge. This technical note introduces a straightforward methodology to account for such attrition. Its applicability is demonstrated through a survey targeting Venezuelan migrants in Ecuador and Peru.

Full text
Abstract:
This is the first ?Analysis and Synthesis? report required by the Klamath Inventory and Monitoring Network?s stream monitoring protocol. This report synthesizes the physical and chemical attributes of streams surveyed by the Klamath Network between 2011 and 2018 in the following parks: Crater Lake National Park, Lassen Volcanic National Park, Whiskeytown National Recreation Area, Redwood National and State Parks, and Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve). Where possible, it categorizes individual streams into groups using multivariate exploratory analyses and assigns statistical significance to the groups via Similarity Profile analyses. Streams are sorted into similar groups for eight different metric categories: Channel Morphology (e.g., bank angle, width, depth, etc.), Habitat Complexity (amount and types of cover), Large Woody Debris (categories of length and diameter of fallen wood), Riparian Characters (e.g., percent cover of tree, shrub, and groundcover types), Slope and Sinuosity, Stream Substrate (e.g., percent fine substrate, median substrate size), Water Chemistry (e.g., nutrients and salts), and Water Quality (e.g., dissolved oxygen, turbidity). Secondary to the categorization of streams within each park, the streams are compared among parks to identify which parks may have similar streams. Similar streams potentially share both common stressors and common management practices for resource management. The analyses in this report form the foundation of future work; they are ?basic? results. Follow-up work will use these basic results more fully, such as for analyses that incorporate biological data and support trend reports. The main body of the report presents a high-level overview of individual park results and inter-park comparisons. The appendices present full results for each park, including numerous figures and maps. Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve results are limited by small sample size (n = 3) and the hand-selected sampling scheme we used instead of a probabilistic sampling scheme. However, including Oregon Caves? sites in this analysis puts them into a larger network context.

Abstract:
Feature extraction algorithms are routinely leveraged to extract building footprints and road networks into vector format. When used in conjunction with high resolution remotely sensed imagery, machine learning enables the automation of such feature extraction workflows. However, many of the feature extraction algorithms currently available have not been thoroughly evaluated in a scientific manner within complex terrain such as the cities of developing countries. This report details the performance of three automated feature extraction (AFE) datasets: Ecopia, Tier 1, and Tier 2, at extracting building footprints and roads from high resolution satellite imagery as compared to manual digitization of the same areas. To avoid environmental bias, this assessment was done in two different regions of the world: Maracay, Venezuela and Niamey, Niger. High, medium, and low urban density sites are compared between regions. We quantify the accuracy of the data and time needed to correct the three AFE datasets against hand digitized reference data across ninety tiles in each city, selected by stratified random sampling. Within each tile, the reference data was compared against the three AFE datasets, both before and after analyst editing, using the accuracy assessment metrics of Intersection over Union and F1 Score for buildings and roads, as well as Average Path Length Similarity (APLS) to measure road network connectivity. It was found that of the three AFE tested, the Ecopia data most frequently outperformed the other AFE in accuracy and reduced the time needed for editing.

Abstract:
Over the last two decades, the educational field of study has been one of the areas that benefited from the proliferated use of digital technologies. Recent digital technologies in education have focused on online education in developed nations. However, they have paid less attention to the involvement of university instructors in online education in developing countries. Therefore, the current project tried to address this problem by examining the challenges and prospects of instructors in designing and developing content online in Ethiopia's public universities. This study involved 59 participants (15 semi-structured interviews, 32 participants in four focus group discussions, and 12 key informants), derived using a purposive sampling technique. Data were analyzed using inductive thematic analysis to explore participants’ explanations about the impediments and motivation of university instructors in designing and developing content online at the University of Gondar, Ethiopia. Explanations were presented in terms of impediments (the state of being faced with the challenges of university instructors) and motivation (the determination of instructors in higher education). The findings showed that the challenges of instructors can be classified as personal (technophobia, digital illiteracy, bad impression of content online, fear of making low-quality content, and lack of knowledge on how to produce content online) and institutional (insufficient infrastructure, absence of curriculums and policies on eLearning education. On the other hand, the prospects of instructors, such as taking eLearning education initiative, online education support services, and boosting awareness of online education, are the facilitators for instructors in developing content online in higher education.
