Abstract:
Spoken language interpreting is a complex task involving comprehension of a source language message and subsequent production of this in the target language, all of which happens at a fast pace and often in front of an audience. Building on research conducted in language learning and drama-based pedagogies, this paper takes stock of recent technological developments in interpreter education, and proposes that a renewed focus on the interpreter as a language user and as a performer is necessary.1

Abstract:
Participation in synchronous online learning is an increasing need for students’ learning outcomes. Teachers generally cannot be sure about the fact that students who are seen in the participation lists are really following the online tasks. Recent studies have shown that gamification can be an effective way to support learners’ participation in the tasks. This study intended to suggest sample scenarios in line with using gamification elements in online learning environments. Two basic scenarios were developed considering the properties of online learners’ characteristics and gamification elem

Abstract:
Social networking websites (SNSs) focus on building online social networks or communities of people who share interests and activities and provide ways for users to interact with each other online. Our exploratory pilot study gauged users' receptivity to receiving health information via the SNSs they use. We presented several hypothetical scenarios and explored respondents' reactions to each of them. Consistent with other research, we found that most respondents reported using SNSs to interact with people they already know as opposed to using SNSs to meet new people. Overall, respondents were

Abstract:
Worldwide increasing awareness of energy sustainability issues has been the main driver in developing the concepts of (Nearly) Zero Energy Buildings, where the reduced energy consumptions are (nearly) fully covered by power locally generated by renewable sources. At the same time, recent advances in Internet of Things technologies are among the main enablers of Smart Homes and Buildings. The transition of conventional buildings into active environments that process, elaborate and react to online measured environmental quantities is being accelerated by the aspects related to COVID-19, most not

Among sub-items of energy consumption in public buildings, lighting sockets play an important role in energy-saving analysis. So, the energy consumption data quality of lighting sockets is important. However, limited by the initial cost of energy monitoring platform, it is difficult to install electricity meters covering all branches and to retrofit the incompact classification electricity branches, which results in a mixture of the lighting socket energy consumption and other components. In this study, a separation methodology is proposed. First, the abnormal data in the energy monitoring pla

Online anomaly detection for stream data has been explored recently, where the detector is supposed to be able to perform an accurate and timely judgment for the upcoming observation. However, due to the inherent complex characteristics of stream data, such as quick generation, tremendous volume and dynamic evolution distribution, how to develop an effective online anomaly detection method is a challenge. The main objective of this paper is to propose an adaptive online anomaly detection method for stream data. This is achieved by combining isolation principle with online ensemble learning, wh

Abstract Summary Biological processes are characterized by a variety of different genomic feature sets. However, often times when building models, portions of these features are missing for a subset of the dataset. We provide a modeling framework to effectively integrate this type of heterogeneous data to improve prediction accuracy. To test our methodology, we have stacked data from the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia to increase the accuracy of drug sensitivity prediction.
