Abstract:
AbstractIn contrast to the first and second wave of Human Computer Interaction, the third wave grapples with wicked problems. However, re-solutions to wicked problems embodied in artifacts frame and change the understanding of the problem itself. Research through Design (RtD) is a constructive methodology to understand this interplay of problem framing through designing artifacts. RtD is also suited to resurface the theory within those artifacts through annotation. These annotations expose and emphasize qualities, values and assumptions held within artifacts by its creators.

Electroencephalographic(EEG) is a vital signal to analysis the neurological diseases in human being. This EEG signal captured even in highly hospitalic and standard environment may currpted by some non-physiological signals which are termed as artifact in medical term. These artifacts may disturb the quality of signal. Thus, mitigation of these artifacts from EEG signal is an important step.

Given his known predilection for ontological parsimony, Ockham’s ontology of artifacts is unsurprisingly reductionist: artifacts are nothing over and above their existing and appropriately ordered parts. However, the case of artifacts is notable in that they are real objects that human artisans produce by bringing about a real change: they spatially rearrange existing natural thing(s) or their parts for the sake of some end. This article argues that the human contribution to the nature and production of artifacts is two-fold: (1) the artisan’s cognitive grasp of her expertise and her decision

Abstract:
Abstract The following explores the artificiality of human artifacts. To talk of artifacts, we must avoid ontologizing. Ontology ignores human participation in its construction and describing artifacts as if their descriptions had nothing to do with it contradicts the idea of their artificiality. Instead, I will explore the nature of artifacts from the perspective of human-centered design and with culture-sensitive conceptions in mind. Exploring artifacts from this perspective offers scholars and practitioners a fascinating field of inquiry. To follow are six closely connected mini essays on a

First, studying processes of negotiating the repairedness of an artifact accounts for contingency in the properties of the artifact itself, which differs from contingencies in collaborative work practices that have been a focus of CSCW research on re

Abstract:
Artifacts are irreplaceable treasures of human culture, and transportation monitoring is critical for safeguarding valuable artifacts against damage during culture exchanges. However, current collision-monitoring technologies have limitations in regard to real-time monitoring, cushioning protection, and power supply requirements. Here, we present a method for constructing a smart artifact-monitoring system (SAMS) based on a porous carbon black (CB)/Ecoflex triboelectric nanogenerator (PCE-TENG) that can monitor collisions in real time and absorb vibrations during artifact transportation.

Purpose By establishing a conceptual path through the field of artificial intelligence for objectivistic knowledge artifacts (KAs), the purpose of this paper is to propose an extension to their design principles. The author uses these principles to deploy KAs for knowledge acquired in scientific processes, to determine whether these principles steer the design of KAs that are amenable for both human and computational manipulation.

Abstract:
The present research is motivated by an examination of the intimate link between women, looms, and woven products. In ancient and traditional Sundanese cosmology, the loom is regarded as Nyai Pohaci's embodiment (the Goddess of Rice). It is not, therefore, unexpected that women and looms are intertwined. Even when looms are no longer employed, woven clothes should be present at Sundanese offerings. This study seeks to highlight, analyze, and compare the material artifacts that accompany Sundanese verbal objects in the Lutung Kasarung pantun. The artifacts consist of Sundanese weaving-specific

Abstract:
Archaeological surface assemblages composed of lithic scatters comprise a large proportion of the archaeological record. Dating such surface artifacts has remained inherently difficult owing to the dynamic nature of Earth-surface processes affecting these assemblages and because no satisfactory chronometric dating technique exists that can be directly applied to constrain the timing of artifact manufacture, discard, and thus human use of the landscape. Here, we present a dating approach based on optically stimulated luminescence (OSL)—OSL rock-surface burial dating—and apply it to a lithic sur

The measurement and processing of EEG signal result in the probability of signal contamination through artifacts which can obstruct the important features and information quality existing in the signal. To diagnose the human neurological diseases like epilepsy, tumors, and problems associated with trauma, these artifacts must be properly pruned assuring that there is no loss of the main attributes of EEG signals.

Abstract Evidence of systematic secondary lithic recycling at the Katie Griffith site and Church Rocksheiter No. 2 in the mountains of western North Carolina is presented. It is proposed that recycling and reuse of found stone artifacts in the Early Woodland period of the Appalachian Summit region of the southeastern United States was a regular lithic procurement option. It is concluded that systematic secondary lithic recycling was widespread in prehistory, provides an avenue for exploring economizing responses to raw material procurement challenges, and must be accounted for when using lithi

Electroencephalography (EEG) signals collected from human scalps are often polluted by diverse artifacts, for instance electromyogram (EMG), electrooculogram (EOG), and electrocardiogram (ECG) artifacts. Muscle artifacts are particularly difficult to eliminate among all kinds of artifacts due to their complexity. At present, several researchers have proved the superiority of combining single-channel decomposition algorithms with blind source separation (BSS) to make multichannel EEG recordings free from EMG contamination.

Abstract Objective. Denoising artifacts, such as noise from muscle or cardiac activity, is a crucial and ubiquitous concern in neurophysiological signal processing, particularly for enhancing the signal-to-noise ratio in electroencephalograph (EEG) analysis. Novel methods based on deep learning demonstrate a notably prominent effect compared to traditional denoising approaches. However, those still suffer from certain limitations. Some methods often neglect the multi-domain characteristics of the artifact signal. Even among those that do consider these, there are deficiencies in terms of effic

In the process of drawing, actual measurements have been made through human hands in the past, but now a method through 3D scanning is additionally used.

Abstract The concepts of manipulative abduction and of extending, disembodying, and distributing the mind can help delineate important aspects of the role of habits, rituals, and symbols in human cognition, including when new concepts are created. Taking advantage of some psychoanalytical and anthropological issues, I will show how symbolic habits in rituals can function as memory mediators which are able to play significant roles in human cognition and action. They can maximize abducibility and so recoverability of knowledge contents, including at the unconscious level.

When metallic implants are present within the human body, they frequently introduce metallic artifacts into X-ray CT images. These artifacts can lead to significant distortions, obscuring critical information and potentially degrading the quality of the CT images, thereby impacting diagnostic accuracy for clinicians. In recent years, there has been extensive research aimed at mitigating the challenges posed by metallic artifacts, resulting in the development of multiple solutions to address this issue.
