Abstract:

This paper presents a supervised learning scheme that employs key-frame extraction to enhance the performance of pre-trained deep learning models for object detection in surveillance videos. Developing supervised deep learning models requires a significant amount of annotated video frames as training data, which demands substantial human effort for preparation. Key frames, which encompass frames containing false negative or false positive objects, can introduce diversity into the training data and contribute to model improvements. Our proposed approach focuses on detecting false negatives by l

Abstract:

Abstract Organized rape in armed conflict is one of the most serious violations of human rights, which creates a clear crisis in the identity of the other party and solidifies the sense of bitterness of defeat. Rape in armed conflicts is thus different from that of others, which can have a negative impact on social and international peace and security. Conservative and racially conservative societies are also affected by systematic organized gang rape, which occurs systematically from parties to a non-international armed conflict or within the policy of the aggressor State in the event of an i

Abstract:

This paper investigates the effects of estate taxation when firms cannot directly observe worker skill levels. Imperfect labor market signaling gives rise to an information externality that causes workers to free-ride off of others’ human capital acquisition. Inherited wealth exacerbates the information externality because risk averse workers with larger inheritances exert less effort to acquire skills. By reducing these inheritances, an estate tax induces greater skill acquisition effort and increases the number of skilled workers. In a quantitative model with employer learning and capital ac

Abstract A disaster is an event or series of events which threaten and disrupt the human lives. The studies of disaster are constantly considered related to humans because humans act as the causative factor, victim and at the same time the executant of the effort in disaster handling. Pioneered by Gilbert White and pursued by other experts, human geography later shows the roles in examining issues in disaster studies especially in disaster mitigation. Based on several research and notions, many experts in human geography agree that there is nothing natural in natural disaster. Although the dis

Abstract:

Reducing the human effort performed with the use of interactive-predictive neural machine translation (IPNMT) systems is one of the main goals in this sub-field of machine translation (MT). Prior works have focused on changing the human–machine interaction method and simplifying the feedback performed. Applying confidence measures (CM) to an IPNMT system helps decrease the number of words that the user has to check through the translation session, reducing the human effort needed, although this supposes losing a few points in the quality of the translations.

Abstract:

This work addresses the problem of planning a robot configuration and grasp to position a shared object during forceful human-robot collaboration, such as a puncturing or a cutting task. Particularly, our goal is to find a robot configuration that positions the jointly manipulated object such that the muscular effort of the human, operating on the same object, is minimized while also ensuring the stability of the interaction for the robot. This raises three challenges. First, we predict the human muscular effort given a human-robot combined kinematic configuration and the interaction forces of

Abstract:

Biological agents and infectious pathogens have the potential to cause very significant harm, as the natural occurrence of disease and pandemics makes clear. As a way to better understand the risk of Global Catastrophic Biological Risks due to human activities, rather than natural sources, this paper reports on a dataset of 71 incidents involving either accidental or purposeful exposure to, or infection by, a highly infectious pathogenic agent. There has been significant effort put into both reducing the risk of purposeful spread of biological weapons, and biosafety intended to prevent the exp

Abstract:

The term social entrepreneurship is used to refer to the rapidly growing number of organizations that have been created for the benefit of society. Social entrepreneurs have created models for efficiently catering to basic human needs that existing markets and institutions have failed to satisfy. Social entrepreneurship combines the resourcefulness of traditional entrepreneurship with a mission to change society. Social entrepreneurship offers insights that may stimulate ideas for more socially acceptable and sustainable business strategies and organizational forms. Because it contributes dire

ABSTRACT In this study, we have investigated the effect of specific mutations in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope (Env) on antibody production in an effort to improve humoral immune responses to this glycoprotein by DNA vaccination. Mice were injected with plasmid expression vectors encoding HIV Env with modifications in regions that might affect this response. Elimination of conserved glycosylation sites did not substantially enhance humoral or cytotoxic-T-lymphocyte (CTL) immunity. In contrast, a modified gp140 with different COOH-terminal mutations intended to mimic a fu

Abstract:

As the needs of people are increasing, the demand for loans in banks is also frequently getting higher every day. Banks typically process an applicant’s loan after screening and verifying the applicant’s eligibility, which is a difficult and time-consuming process. In some cases, some applicants default and banks lose capital. The machine learning approach is ideal for reducing human effort and effective decision making in the loan approval process by implementing machine learning tools that use classification algorithms to predict eligible loan applicants.

Abstract:

In a world where technology has bridged the gap between people communicating to reducing human efforts and improving efficiency, the problem that major hospitals & pharmacies face is i.e. lack of staff & resources. As per the survey conducted by LANCET[1], India faces a significant shortage in medical staff which leads to patients being unattended for several hours. This problem can be solved if the tasks per staff member is reduced and one such way is by reducing their repetitive movement from the patient's room to the pharmacy for giving the medicines to the patient.

Abstract:

A shorter lifespan as a potential cost of high reproductive effort in humans has intrigued researchers for more than a century. However, the results have been inconclusive so far and despite strong theoretical expectations we do not currently have compelling evidence for the longevity costs of reproduction. Using Monte Carlo simulation, it is shown here that a common practice in human reproduction-longevity studies using historical data (the most relevant data sources for this question), the omission of women who died prior to menopausal age from the analysis, results in severe underestimation

Abstract:

Information Extraction (IE) from semi-structured web-pages is a long studied problem. Training a model for this extraction task requires a large number of human-labeled samples. Prior works have proposed transferable models to improve the label-efficiency of this training process. Extraction performance of transferable models however, depends on the size of their fine-tuning corpus. This holds true for large language models (LLM) such as GPT-3 as well. Generalist models like LLMs need to be fine-tuned on in-domain, human-labeled samples for competitive performance on this extraction task. Cons

In upper limb rehabilitation training by exploiting robotic devices, the qualitative or quantitative assessment of human active effort is conducive to altering the robot control parameters to offer the patients appropriate assistance, which is considered an effective rehabilitation strategy termed as assist-as-needed. Since active effort of a patient is changeable for the conscious or unconscious behavior, it is considered to be more feasible to determine the distributions of the passive resistance of the patient’s joints versus the joint angle in advance, which can be adopted to assess the ac
