Abstract:
Attitude, speed, and position of unmanned aerial vehicles are susceptible to wind disturbance. The types, characteristics, and mathematical models of the wind, which have great influence on unmanned aerial vehicle in the low-altitude environment, are summarized, including the constant wind, turbulent flow, many kinds of wind shear, and the propeller vortex. Combined with the mathematical model of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the mechanism of unmanned aerial vehicle movement in the wind field is illustrated from three different kinds of viewpoints including velocity viewpoint, force viewpoint, and energy viewpoint. Some simulation tests have been implemented to show the effects of different kinds of wind on unmanned aerial vehicle’s path and flight states. Finally, some proposals are presented to tell reader in which condition, which wind model should be added to simulation, and how to enhance the stability of unmanned aerial vehicle for different kinds of wind fields.

Abstract:
Abstract Accurate electron densities and X-ray form factors of Li, Be, F and their ions have been calculated. Electron correlation, crystal fields and ionic charge transfer change the form factors by up to a few percent, mainly in the range of sin θ/ λ < 1/3 Â -1 . Although electron correlation and crystal fields are small perturbations, their effects on the density and form factor are not additive. Densities or form factors of atomic and ionic systems are very similar; [Li0F0] and [Li+F-] procrystals differ by an effective charge transfer of not more than 0.4 e. Charge transfer and charge overlap in crystals cannot be distinguished uniquely. When the experimental data on Li2BeF4 (approximately reproduced by 3/4 atomic plus 1/4 ionic procrystal) are interpreted from the atomic partial charges are as low as 0.1 e (Li+ 0.12Be+ 0.2F- 0.14); when interpreted from the ionic viewpoint,the charges are much higher, namely 0.7 e. Intermediate viewpoints are also possible.

Abstract:
We present an algorithm for computing the relative perceptual saliencies of the features of a three-dimensional object using either goodness-of-view scores measured at several viewpoints or perceptual similarities among several object views. This technique addresses the inverse, illposed version of the direct problem of predicting goodness-of-view scores or view point similarities when the object features are known. On the basis of a linear model for the direct problem, we solve the inverse problem using the method of regularization. The critical assumption we make to regularize the solution is that perceptual salience varies slowly on the surface of the object. The salient regions derived using this assumption empirically indicate what object structures are important in human three-dimensional object perception, a domain where theories typically have been based on somewhat ad hoc features.

Abstract:
Euthanasia is a new phenomenon which emerges in medical fields and it may become the process of entering in common use, though, it has undergone a long history with sharp ethical, legal, and philosophical controversies among philosophers and theologians. In addition, it may cause arguments for and against its use among physicians in treating gravely ill patients suffering from terminally dead diseases. Therefore, some governments try to legalize it in their parliaments. Although it may be considered as a new good alternative for treating such patients, there is no single criterion for its applying. Quran, the Book of Islam, sharply rejects and forbids euthanasia and considers it an action against the will of God and the purpose of human being's creation which deserves an eternally punishment in the after world.

Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to introduce readers to phenomenological inquiry, an inductive qualitative research approach that is rooted in the philosophical proposition that researchers can gain valuable insight into the structure of how people understand their experiences. It is assumed that there is a structure or essence to the meaning people make of their experiences that can be described and that human experiences are spiritual, physical, emotional, psychological, temporal, spatial, etc. Perceptive descriptions of these experiences can inform more humane workplace policy and helpful new theories. To develop such descriptions, researchers must challenge their own and a priori theoretical understandings of the experience. The article presents information about lifeworld, epoche, and essence; major tenets of the approach. Various ways of understanding and conducting phenomenological inquiry are also presented, including examples of how proponents of various viewpoints discuss methodological concerns. Further, the article provides guidelines for conducting phenomenological research, illustrated with examples of online accessible phenomenological studies in a variety of fields that were conducted from different viewpoints. The article stresses the importance of researchers being knowledgeable about the various viewpoints in order to be articulate about their own phenomenological methods decisions.

Abstract:
The auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo method is reviewed. The Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation converts an interacting Hamiltonian into a non-interacting Hamiltonian in a time-dependent stochastic field, allowing calculation of the resulting functional integral by Monte Carlo methods. The method is presented in a sufficiently general form to be applicable to any Hamiltonian with one- and two-body terms, with special reference to the Heisenberg model and one- and many-band Hubbard models. Many physical correlation functions can be related to correlation functions of the auxiliary field; general results are given here. Issues relating to the choice of auxiliary fields are addressed; operator product identities change the relative dimensionalities of the attractive and repulsive parts of the interaction. Frequently the integrand is not positive-definite, rendering numerical evaluation unstable. If the auxiliary field violates time-reversal invariance, the integrand is complex and this sign problem becomes a phase problem. The origin of this sign or phase is examined from a number of geometrical and other viewpoints and illustrated by simple examples: the phase problem by the spin (1/2) Heisenberg model, and the sign problem by the attractive SU(N) Hubbard model on a triangular molecule with negative hopping integrals. In the latter case, widely studied in the Jahn-Teller literature, the sign is due neither to fermions nor spin, but to frustration. This system is used to illustrate a number of suggested interpretations of the sign problem.

Abstract:
Presented diploma thesis deals with problems connected with accidents at railroad crossings from the road and railway drivers´ perspectives. The theoretical part is particularly focused on the explanation of chosen regulations associated with railroad crossings, with their construction and technical design and also with ways and options of marking in connection with railroad crossing safety system. The paper mentions the most frequent causes why dangerous situations occur. These causes arise from the railway and road drivers´ personal experience, supplemented by statistics of accidents at railroad crossings for the previous periods. The practical part analyses the options for averting a collision on two particular railroad crossings. For this purpose, the railroad crossing secured by lights and the railroad crossing secured only by a warning cross were chosen. Here, with Virtual Crash programme support, the origin of the chosen crisis situations is simulated and later options of their averting are evaluated. Finally, proposals for increasing railroad crossings safety are formulated for both cases. The appendix consists of a list of legislative regulations dealing with railroad crossings, a driving record of the rail vehicle and its technical parameters and simulation programme´s outputs.

Abstract:
The advent of genetically modified (GM) food in New Zealand in 1998 saw the beginning of a highly politicised debate about GM use in the country. The concern over GM and the political situation after the 1999 general election saw the Government establish a Royal Commission of Inquiry on Genetic Modification in May, 2000. The Royal Commission and strong public opposition to GM, evident in large public protests and other actions, made the issue highly newsworthy. The aim of this study was to explore how newspapers reported the GM debate, in particular, examining whether the reportage facilitated greater public debate and awareness about GM through journalists adhering to the ideals of the theory of social responsibility and enacting their watchdog role as encapsulated in the Fourth Estate tradition of the media. To achieve these aims the overall tone of the reportage and also which news source types and themes were most frequently reported were examined. In addition, the relationship and perceptions of scientists and journalists involved in the reporting were explored to examine how these relationships may have influenced the reportage. Content analysis showed the reportage had a pro-GM bias with policy-makers, scientists and industry spokespeople the most frequently cited news sources. The themes of Science, Economics and Politics dominated the reportage. Other source types and themes were less represented, especially themes dealing with ethical and environmental arguments. This lack of representation occurred despite the Royal Commission offering a space for all interested parties to speak. The interviews illustrated that scientists believed the quality of newspaper coverage of GM lacked depth and that important issues were unreported. Journalists found the issue complex to report and said they took care not to oversimplify the science and issues surrounding GM. The relationship between scientists and journalists indicated particular tensions existing between the two groups. The thesis concludes that if robust public debate is to occur within New Zealand regarding GM and other scientific developments, then the media should reflect a greater diversity of opinion by citing other potential news sources offering alternative arguments based on, for example, ethical or environmental grounds.

Full text
Abstract:
The use of recorded environmental sounds in electroacoustic music has led to the raising of fundamental questions concerning the aesthetic criteria with which such materials should be approached in composition. One of the most fundamental issues has been the compositional role of "source recognition", whereby the listener assigns environmental sounds to their physical source objects or situations. This study deals with the potentials of source recognition in sonic art arising from the creative use of field-recordings, especially the potential for tangible "real-world” reference to be used as a criterion by which works are structured. Since recognition of sources is such an elemental aspect of the normal perception of sounds in the environment, this is regarded as a highly relevant basis from which to use field-recordings in composition. Particular emphasis is also given to the placement of this in the context of New Zealand work involving electroacoustic media, in an attempt to evaluate the compositional importance of New Zealand composers' concern for the environment in their works. Chapter one provides a background to the increased concentration in music of the twentieth century on the sounds and stimulus of environmental phenomena, and especially the use of natural sounds in electroacoustic music as it became possible with sound recording. Chapter two examines four approaches to the classification of natural sounds, which are based on different ways in which environmental sound can be perceived - from details of source recognition to focus on morphological and spectral characteristics. Chapter three examines in more detail the use of source recognition of environmental sounds in electroacoustic music by way of critique of two established approaches - namely, Simon Emmerson's writings on "mimesis" and Trevor Wishart's concept of "sonic landscapes", Chapter four explores the role of source recognition when working with field-recordings, both as a means of documenting the sounds of real objects and events, and as a structural force; particular emphasis is given to examples drawn from works by New Zealand composers. These four chapters together form part one of the study. The second part comprises interviews with eight New Zealand-born composers of electroacoustic music, as well as commentaries on the use of field-recordings in the work of these composers. Part three consists of analyses of selected New Zealand works in which field recordings have been used.

The applications of light field camera have gradually become the mainstream research in computational photography, and free viewpoint synthesis has become a hot spot in the research. Free viewpoint synthesis can synthesize any viewpoints which are required from light field camera. In recent years, the related research of free viewpoint synthesis of DIBR (depth-image-based rendering) has revealed that the number of disparity maps is as same as the number of viewpoints in the light field configuration. If these disparity maps are all from disparity search algorithm or sensor, the algorithm complexity and the hardware costs are too high. Therefore, it is important to synthesize good quality of viewpoint by using less disparity maps. This thesis emphasizes the use of only one disparity map to complete free viewpoint synthesis in light field configuration. We find out that DIBR algorithm still needs another corresponding disparity map, so we forward warp the disparity map we already have to the corresponding viewpoint. However, holes appear after forward warping, and they affect the quality of viewpoint synthesis. Holes must be filled in order to synthesize viewpoint afterwards. Therefore, how to fill holes and achieve good quality are critical. In addition, hole filling algorithm is also the bottleneck in our system, so we design hardware architecture to reach real-time computation. We divide hole filling into two aspects: algorithm and architecture. In algorithm, we use weighted mode filter(WMF) to fill holes, but general WMF makes foreground information spread and requires high complexity. Our proposed method optimizes the quality of hole filling and reduce computational complexity. In hardware, the size of SRAM is proportional to the number of disparity labels in traditional hardware architecture of WMF. Therefore, we propose the algorithm and architecture of cacheable histogram to WMF. Proposed method can reduce the size of SRAM and hardware area. Our proposed algorithm can complete 2D free viewpoint synthesis by using only one disparity map. We also propose hardware architecture and algorithm to make hardware area smaller than traditional WMF architecture. In the high resolution light field which has 256 disparity labels, our hardware area is only 14% of traditional hardware of WMF, but our method can still reach similar quality of disparity map and synthesized viewpoint.

Abstract:
This Thesis aims to advance the state-of-the-art in light field representation and coding. In this context, proposals to improve functionalities like light field random access and scalability are also presented. As the light field representation constrains the coding approach to be used, several light field coding techniques to exploit the inherent characteristics of the most popular types of light field representations are proposed and studied, which are normally based on micro-images or sub-aperture-images. To encode micro-images, two solutions are proposed, aiming to exploit the redundancy between neighboring micro-images using a high order prediction model, where the model parameters are either explicitly transmitted or inferred at the decoder, respectively. In both cases, the proposed solutions are able to outperform low order prediction solutions. To encode sub-aperture-images, an HEVC-based solution that exploits their inherent intra and inter redundancies is proposed. In this case, the light field image is encoded as a pseudo video sequence, where the scanning order is signaled, allowing the encoder and decoder to optimize the reference picture lists to improve coding efficiency. A novel hybrid light field representation coding approach is also proposed, by exploiting the combined use of both micro-image and sub-aperture-image representation types, instead of using each representation individually. In order to aid the fast deployment of the light field technology, this Thesis also proposes scalable coding and representation approaches that enable adequate compatibility with legacy displays (e.g., 2D, stereoscopic or multiview) and with future light field displays, while maintaining high coding efficiency. Additionally, viewpoint random access, allowing to improve the light field navigation and to reduce the decoding delay, is also enabled with a flexible trade-off between coding efficiency and viewpoint random access.
Esta Tese tem como objetivo avançar o estado da arte em representação e codificação de campos de luz. Neste contexto, são também apresentadas propostas para melhorar funcionalidades como o acesso aleatório ao campo de luz e a escalabilidade. Como a representação do campo de luz limita a abordagem de codificação a ser utilizada, são propostas e estudadas várias técnicas de codificação de campos de luz para explorar as características inerentes aos seus tipos mais populares de representação, que são normalmente baseadas em micro-imagens ou imagens de sub-abertura. Para codificar as micro-imagens, são propostas duas soluções, visando explorar a redundância entre micro-imagens vizinhas utilizando um modelo de predição de alta ordem, onde os parâmetros do modelo são explicitamente transmitidos ou inferidos no decodificador, respetivamente. Em ambos os casos, as soluções propostas são capazes de superar as soluções de predição de baixa ordem. Para codificar imagens de sub-abertura, é proposta uma solução baseada em HEVC que explora a inerente redundância intra e inter deste tipo de imagens. Neste caso, a imagem do campo de luz é codificada como uma pseudo-sequência de vídeo, onde a ordem de varrimento é sinalizada, permitindo ao codificador e decodificador otimizar as listas de imagens de referência para melhorar a eficiência da codificação. Também é proposta uma nova abordagem de codificação baseada na representação híbrida do campo de luz, explorando o uso combinado dos tipos de representação de micro-imagem e sub-imagem, em vez de usar cada representação individualmente. A fim de facilitar a rápida implantação da tecnologia de campo de luz, esta Tese também propõe abordagens escaláveis de codificação e representação que permitem uma compatibilidade adequada com monitores tradicionais (e.g., 2D, estereoscópicos ou multivista) e com futuros monitores de campo de luz, mantendo ao mesmo tempo uma alta eficiência de codificação. Além disso, o acesso aleatório de pontos de vista, permitindo melhorar a navegação no campo de luz e reduzir o atraso na descodificação, também é permitido com um equilíbrio flexível entre eficiência de codificação e acesso aleatório de pontos de vista.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the field experience of student teaching. Students of National Taichung University (NTCU), who had taken the lesson “Elementary School Teaching Practicum” in 2005, were chosen as the subjects of this study. The questionnaire was designed by the researcher to survey those students’ perceptions of anxiety, frustration, and helpfulness before and during the period of student teaching. The findings of this study were concluded as follows: 1. Before student teaching, most students perceived higher degree of anxiety in “teaching practice” and “classroom management” and perceived lower degree of anxiety in “interpersonal relationship”. And there was diversity of perceiving anxiety between students of different variable. 2. During student teaching, most students perceived higher degree of frustration in “teaching practice” and “classroom management” and perceived lower degree of frustration in “interpersonal relationship”. And there was diversity of perceiving frustration between students of different variable. 3. During student teaching, most students perceived higher degree of helpfulness in “teaching practice and classroom management” and “guidance of teaching and classroom management from elementary school teacher”. But they perceived lower degree of helpfulness in “interpersonal relationship”, “being acquaint with the elementary school practices”, and “guidance and counseling from professor”. And there was diversity of perceiving helpfulness between students of different variable. 4. There were several suggestions proposed by the student teachers: a) Simulated teaching practices should be held before student teaching, b) Field experience of student teaching had better arranged at least 3 weeks, c) Discussions of the student teaching with elementary school teacher must be more emphasized, d) Supervision of the classroom teaching from the university professor must be emphasized, e) Pre-service training programs of “teaching practices and classroom management” should be emphasized, etc.

Nowadays, tattoo artists have become very different from former ones. They can be, in my analysis, classified into three types: artist-like, market-oriented and those of traditional style. Based on the pluralization of tattoo artists, the way of management of tattoo business differentiates into two kinds: that of the new trend and the traditional one, which can be clearly characterized by locality and tattoo style. General speaking, artistic technique is more important in the eyes of old-school tattooists, whilst modern tattooists emphasize fashion tattoo. Besides, the female tattoo artists also bring different feminine tastes into the tattoo market which has been dominated by male tattoo artists. In addition, tattoo artists start to organize themselves nowadays, which vitalizes the tattoo market and influences on the cooperation-competition relations between tattoo artists. All these create a totally new landscape of tattoo market: tattoo’s destigmatization and intensive marketization are getting stronger. This thesis explores the conditions and the reasons for the development of tattoo’s destigmatization and marketization of tattooing.

Abstract:
Lacertid lizards have long been a fruitful field of scientific enquiry with many people working on them over the past couple of hundred years. The scope of the field has steadily increased, beginning with taxonomy and anatomy and gradually spreading so that it includes such topics as phylogenetics, behaviour, ecology, and conservation. Since 1992, a series of symposia on lacertid lizards of the Mediterranean basin have taken place every three years. The present volume stems from the 2004 meeting in the Aeolian Islands. In the volume a wide range of island topics are considered, including the systematics of the species concerned, from both morphological and molecular viewpoints, interaction with other taxa, and conservation. The last topic is especially important, as island lizards across the world have often been vulnerable to extinction, after they came into contact with people and the animals they introduced. The volume also has papers on the more positive aspects of human influence, specifically the benign effects of traditional agriculture on at least some reptile species. Olive trees, cork oaks and the banks and walls of loose rocks that crisscross the Mediterranean scene all often contribute to elevated lizard populations. Nor is more basic biology neglected and there are articles on morphology, reproduction, development and thermoregulation. Finally, it is good to see one paper on non-Mediterranean species is included. For, to fully understand the lacertids of this region, it is necessary to appreciate their close relatives in Africa, Asia and the archipelagos of the northeastern Atlantic Ocean. (From Preface by E.

Full text
Abstract:
The capability approach, an increasingly popular conceptual and theoretical framework focused on what individuals are able to do and be, offers a unique evaluative perspective to social policy analysis. This book explores the advantages of this approach and offers a way forward in addressing conceptual and empirical issues as they apply specifically to social policy research and practice. Short conceptual and empirical chapters provide clear examples of how policies shape the capabilities of different groups and individuals, critically assessing the efficacy of different social policies across multiple social policy fields, providing both academic and practitioner viewpoints.

Full text
Abstract:
The Oxford Handbook of Aesthetics looks at a fascinating theme in philosophy and the arts. Leading figures in the field contribute forty-eight articles which detail the theory, application, history, and future of philosophy and all branches of the arts. The first article of the book gives a general overview of the field of philosophical aesthetics in two parts: the first is a quick sketch of the lay of the land, and the second an account of five central problems over the past fifty years. The second article gives an extensive survey of recent work in the history of modern aesthetics, or aesthetic thought from the seventeenth to the mid-twentieth centuries. There are three main parts to the book. The first part comprises sections dealing with problems in aesthetics, such as expression, fiction or aesthetic experience, considered apart from any particular artform. The second part contains articles on problems in aesthetics as they arise in connection with particular artforms, such as music, film, or dance. The third part addresses relations between aesthetics and other fields of enquiry, and explores viewpoints or concerns complimentary to those prominent in mainstream analytical aesthetics.

Full text
Abstract:
Religion: A Very Short Introduction offers a concise and fair account of the vast topic of religion, incorporating insights from different scholarly fields while also respectfully representing diverse religions and varying viewpoints. Everyone who aspires to be an informed global citizen needs to understand religion, since it affects how billions around the world conduct their lives. But most overviews are too wordy or too partisan. This one focuses on the key questions: What is religion? What does it do? How is religion expressed and how has it changed? That story of change begins with the first signs of religion among ancient humans using stone tools, and it ends with modern adherents using computer technology. Religion continues to evolve, and it continues to play an important role in how people deal with recent trends and contemporary problems, from climate change to armed conflict. Religion, the author shows, is both intensifying and alleviating those problems. Religion is pulling us apart and bringing us together.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter delves into the physics of multiferroics, the recent developments of which are discussed here from the viewpoint of the spin current and “emergent electromagnetism” for constrained systems. It presents the three sources of U(1) gauge fields, namely, the Berry phase associated with the noncollinear spin structure, the spin-orbit interaction (SOI), and the usual electromagnetic field. The chapter reviews multiferroic phenomena in noncollinear magnets from this viewpoint and discusses theories of multiferroic behavior of cycloidal helimagnets in terms of the spin current or vector spin chirality. Relativistic SOI leads to a coupling between the spin current and the electric polarization, and hence the ferroelectric and dielectric responses are a new and important probe for the spin states and their dynamical properties. Microscopic theories of the ground state polarization for various electronic configurations, collective modes including the electromagnon, and some predictions including photoinduced chirality switching are discussed with comparison to experimental results.

Abstract:
After the end of World War II, women’s rights advocates at the United Nations vigorously campaigned for equality between the sexes. At the UN Charter Conference held in San Francisco in 1945, women delegates fought for the recognition of sex-based discrimination as a violation of human rights in Article 1 of the Charter. At the UN, issues relating to women were primarily placed under the purview of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW), established in June 1946 with the mandate to “prepare recommendations and report to the Economic and Social Council on promoting women’s rights in political, economic, civil, social and educational fields.” Three main perspectives underpin feminist International Relations (IR) literature on the UN, gender and women: promoting women’s participation and inclusion of women’s issues at the UN; gender critique of the UN, geared towards institutional transformation; and challenging the universality of the UN. Despite some fundamental differences between these three strands of thinking, their political significance is widely acknowledged in the literature. The co-existence of these contentious viewpoints resonates with the vibrant feminist politics at the UN, and offers a fruitful avenue for envisioning a better intergovernmental organization. This is particularly relevant in light of feminist scholars’ engagement with activism and policymaking at the UN from the very beginning. Nevertheless, there are issues that deserve further consideration, such as the workings of the UN, as reflected in its unique diplomatic characteristics and bureaucratic practices.

Abstract:
This Handbook seeks to explore John Henry Newman with critical appreciation and to assess the large amount of secondary literature. In so doing, it does not intend to protect his legacy but to examine his life, writings, thought, and significance from the different perspectives and disciplines of philosophy, theology, history, education, and literature. Newman himself thought that the attempt to acquire a deeper understanding of things called for more than a single disciplinary perspective. Although a scholar in any particular field works within her boundaries, it is engagement across those boundaries that the present volume seeks to promote while at the same time providing a critical engagement with current scholarship in specific fields. The Handbook does not seek to merge incommensurable readings of Newman into a governing viewpoint and no particular school of thought is privileged. Instead, the volume reflects a broad range of perspectives and methodological assumptions to move all towards deeper understanding.

Abstract:
AbstractIn recent years, big data entered use in various fields. Google Street View (hereinafter called “GSV”) can be regarded as open big data, and its images can be obtained using API. The streets can be viewed 360° horizontally and 290° vertically from each point on the web. In addition to those, zooming up is available, and the viewpoint can be moved approximately 10 m forward or backward to/from the current point. The original image to provide the view is the panoramic image associated with the latitude and longitude information on the street consecutively at intervals of 10 m, and they exist as massive data on the web. We determine the area of the sky using these images from GSV. In this research, we calculate the sky view factor (hereinafter called “SVF”) in an extended area by defining the area of the sky with the SVF and utilizing the computer.

Abstract:
Multi-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) provides clinical information of heartbeats from several fixed viewpoints determined by the lead positioning. However, it is often not satisfactory to visualize ECG signals in these fixed and limited views, as some clinically useful information is represented only from a few specific ECG viewpoints. For the first time, we propose a new concept, Electrocardio Panorama, which allows visualizing ECG signals from any queried viewpoints. To build Electrocardio Panorama, we assume that an underlying electrocardio field exists, representing locations, magnitudes, and directions of ECG signals. We present a Neural electrocardio field Network (Nef-Net), which first predicts the electrocardio field representation by using a sparse set of one or few input ECG views and then synthesizes Electrocardio Panorama based on the predicted representations. Specially, to better disentangle electrocardio field information from viewpoint biases, a new Angular Encoding is proposed to process viewpoint angles. Also, we propose a self-supervised learning approach called Standin Learning, which helps model the electrocardio field without direct supervision. Further, with very few modifications, Nef-Net can synthesize ECG signals from scratch. Experiments verify that our Nef-Net performs well on Electrocardio Panorama synthesis, and outperforms the previous work on the auxiliary tasks (ECG view transformation and ECG synthesis from scratch). The codes and the division labels of cardiac cycles and ECG deflections on Tianchi ECG and PTB datasets are available at https://github.com/WhatAShot/Electrocardio-Panorama.

Abstract:
Mobile and wireless devices and networks enable "any place, any time" use of information systems, providing advantages, such as productivity enhancement, flexibility, service improvements and information accuracy. These benefits can be nullified by using systems of insufficient quality. Mobile-wireless information systems face new kinds of problems: narrow bands, small devices, tiny screens, and diversity of users and devices. Information systems quality cannot be measured only by software faults absence; it must be broader, including characteristics to cover all aspects, life-cycle phases, and viewpoints. This research develops a methodology to define and quantify the quality components of such systems, merging two fields together: mobile-wireless applications and standards for product quality assurance. The research has developed a list of questions from which new quality metrics were defined and empirically validated, extending the ISO/IEC 9126 quality standard for mobile-wireless information systems. The paper describes the metrics development process and presents examples of metrics.

Abstract:
In this paper, aerodynamic performance of the NACA0012 airfoil in the incompressible flow with a lower Reynolds number (Re) is investigated numerically from the viewpoints of flow pattern and nonlinear dynamics. First, the characteristic-based split (CBS) finite element method is introduced for the approximation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and then the lid-driven cavity flow and flow around a circular cylinder are calculated for varification. Then, at Re = 1000, flow fields around the NACA0012 airfoil at a series of angles of attack are simulated. With the increase of the attack angle, great change of the flow pattern appears, and the flow structures such as trailing edge vortex, separation bubble and shedding vortex are observed. Moreover, it is found that the separation bubble plays an important role in the deterioration of the flow stability at higher attack angles, and the vortex shedding can be taken as the result of a Hopf bifurcation while the bifurcation parameter is the angle of attack.

Full text
Abstract:
The main recommendations of the panel report can be summarised under five key headings:  HUMANITY The Panel recommends recognition that research in this field should be geared towards the development of critical understandings of self and society in the modern world. Archaeological research into the modern past should be ambitious in seeking to contribute to understanding of the major social, economic and environmental developments through which the modern world came into being. Modern-world archaeology can add significantly to knowledge of Scotland’s historical relationships with the rest of the British Isles, Europe and the wider world. Archaeology offers a new perspective on what it has meant to be a modern person and a member of modern society, inhabiting a modern world.  MATERIALITY The Panel recommends approaches to research which focus on the materiality of the recent past (i.e. the character of relationships between people and their material world). Archaeology’s contribution to understandings of the modern world lies in its ability to situate, humanise and contextualise broader historical developments. Archaeological research can provide new insights into the modern past by investigating historical trends not as abstract phenomena but as changes to real lives, affecting different localities in different ways. Archaeology can take a long-term perspective on major modern developments, researching their ‘prehistory’ (which often extends back into the Middle Ages) and their material legacy in the present. Archaeology can humanise and contextualise long-term processes and global connections by working outwards from individual life stories, developing biographies of individual artefacts and buildings and evidencing the reciprocity of people, things, places and landscapes. The modern person and modern social relationships were formed in and through material environments and, to understand modern humanity, it is crucial that we understand humanity’s material relationships in the modern world.  PERSPECTIVE The Panel recommends the development, realisation and promotion of work which takes a critical perspective on the present from a deeper understanding of the recent past. Research into the modern past provides a critical perspective on the present, uncovering the origins of our current ways of life and of relating to each other and to the world around us. It is important that this relevance is acknowledged, understood, developed and mobilised to connect past, present and future. The material approach of archaeology can enhance understanding, challenge assumptions and develop new and alternative histories. Modern Scotland: Archaeology, the Modern past and the Modern present vi Archaeology can evidence varied experience of social, environmental and economic change in the past. It can consider questions of local distinctiveness and global homogeneity in complex and nuanced ways. It can reveal the hidden histories of those whose ways of life diverged from the historical mainstream. Archaeology can challenge simplistic, essentialist understandings of the recent Scottish past, providing insights into the historical character and interaction of Scottish, British and other identities and ideologies.  COLLABORATION The Panel recommends the development of integrated and collaborative research practices. Perhaps above all other periods of the past, the modern past is a field of enquiry where there is great potential benefit in collaboration between different specialist sectors within archaeology, between different disciplines, between Scottish-based researchers and researchers elsewhere in the world and between professionals and the public. The Panel advocates the development of new ways of working involving integrated and collaborative investigation of the modern past. Extending beyond previous modes of inter-disciplinary practice, these new approaches should involve active engagement between different interests developing collaborative responses to common questions and problems.  REFLECTION The Panel recommends that a reflexive approach is taken to the archaeology of the modern past, requiring research into the nature of academic, professional and public engagements with the modern past and the development of new reflexive modes of practice. Archaeology investigates the past but it does so from its position in the present. Research should develop a greater understanding of modern-period archaeology as a scholarly pursuit and social practice in the present. Research should provide insights into the ways in which the modern past is presented and represented in particular contexts. Work is required to better evidence popular understandings of and engagements with the modern past and to understand the politics of the recent past, particularly its material aspect. Research should seek to advance knowledge and understanding of the moral and ethical viewpoints held by professionals and members of the public in relation to the archaeology of the recent past. There is a need to critically review public engagement practices in modern-world archaeology and develop new modes of public-professional collaboration and to generate practices through which archaeology can make positive interventions in the world. And there is a need to embed processes of ethical reflection and beneficial action into archaeological practice relating to the modern past.
