It is becoming increasingly difficult for learners to find the lectures they are looking for. In turn, the ability to find the particular lecture sought by the learner in an accurate and prompt manner has become an important issue in e-Learning. To deal this issue, in this paper. we present a collaborative approach to provide personalized recommendations of online video lectures. The proposed approach first identifies candidated video lectures that will be of interest to a certain user. Partitioned collaborative filtering is employed as an approach in order to generate neighbor learners and predict learners'preferences for the lectures. Thereafter, Attribute-based filtering is employed to recommend a final list of video lectures that the target user will like the most.

The study provided a perspective on which readers can see Newton's proof heuristically in order to overcome the difficulty of proof showing 'QT²/QR converges to the latus rectum of ellipse' in the proof of the inverse square law of Newton's Principia. The heuristic perspective is as follows: The starting point of the proof is the belief that if we transform the denominators and numerators of QT²/QR into expression with respect to segments related to diameter and conjugate diameter, we may obtain some constant, the desired value, by their relationship PV × VG/QV² = PC²/CD² in Apollonius' Conic sections. The heuristic perspective proposed in this study is meaningful because it can help readers understand Newton's proof more easily by presenting the direction of transformation of QT²/QR.

In generative design computer automatically and quickly generates many alternative design solutions, and the computer algorithms which perform the design tasks are important. The main purpose of this study is to propose a computer algorithm which generates three-dimensional shapes from a two-dimensional digital image such as a photograph or a painting. The base geometry of the final shape is a cylinder or sphere. A surface of the cylinder or sphere is deformed depending on the used image. The proposed algorithm was implemented as a computer program, and the program tested with several famous paintings. The algorithm and results presented in this study implicate the possibilities of the generative design which generates three-dimensional shapes from two-dimensional images. It is necessary to find and measure the values of the generated shape, and it will be a future research to find the relations of emotional and cognitive aspects between the input images and the generated shapes. Those studies are expected to expand the possibilities of generative design.

Research for the inverse estimation of RF threats and the efficient electronic attack based on the parameters of the electronic information has been active in the electronic warfare (EW) situations. In this paper, an EW transmission simulator is constructed from the modeling of radar threats, EW receivers, and propagation environments with the collected electronic information in order to verify the performance of the inverse estimation algorithm in various and practical EW situations. In simulation results, we show that the range tracking error and angle tracking error are produced within ten meters and one degree, respectively. And also, we show that the changing relations between the angle tracking error and the parameters of the monopulse angle tracking radar such as the beamwidth and squint angle in simulation results correspond with those in the theoretical modeling. Accordingly, the constructed EW simulator can be used to observe the modifying characteristics of the electronic information in transmission environments, and then, to evaluate the performance of the inverse estimation system in various EW situations.

In underwater signal processing, separating individual signals from mixed signals has long been a challenge due to low signal quality. The common method using Short-time Fourier transform for spectrogram analysis has faced criticism for its complex parameter optimization and loss of phase data. We propose a Triple-path Recurrent Neural Network, based on the Dual-path Recurrent Neural Network's success in long time series signal processing, to handle three-dimensional tensors from multi-channel sensor input signals. By dividing input signals into short chunks and creating a 3D tensor, the method accounts for relationships within and between chunks and channels, enabling local and global feature learning. The proposed technique demonstrates improved Root Mean Square Error and Scale Invariant Signal to Noise Ratio compared to the existing method.

Many uncertainties affecting to the structural behavior of prestressed concrete (PSC) bridges reinforced with the un bonded external tendons are analyzed on the basis of the analytical method introduced in the companion paper. Many design parameters, which must be considered in design procedure, such as friction slip at the deviators, number of deviators, time-dependent deformations of concrete, relaxation of tendon and influence of loading history in PSC bridges are reviewed, and a lot of valuable results are obtained through this parametric study. In advance, the structural responses according to the external tendon profiles are analyzed to grasp if an optimum tendon profile depends on the applied loading type, and the obtained results show that the most stable structural response is revealed when the locations of deviators are coincident with the loading points.

In this paper, an analytical method which can describe the structural behavior of prestressed concrete (PSC) bridges reinforced with the unbonded external tendon is developed. Since the unbonded external tendon is directly installed to the deviators while maintaining a straight configuration, it has a different deformation field from that of concrete and accompanies the secondary effect caused by the change of the primary eccentricity between concrete and external tendon. In advance, the friction slip at the deviators is also taken into consideration on the basis of the force equilibrium between the friction force and the driving force. Through correlation studies between experimental data and analytical results, it is verified that the proposed numerical model can effectively predict the structural behavior of PSC beam bridges with comparative precision.

This paper examines the ink on paper technique that is being used in the animation works by the Canadian filmmaker Michēle Cournoyner from the National Film Board of Canada. It also discusses how in her animated film "Soif"(2013) this technique has been applied to compose the narrative significance and symbols through the use of metamorphosis as a form of artistic expression. Cournoyner had used the ink of paper technique as a means to abandon realistic representations of movement, and in "Soif" through expressive use of metamorphosis, portrayed changes of images in character and object not through chronological order of narrative flow, but through the body of the female character, which had been represented by the improvisation of the ink on paper technique in order to express the surrealistic and unconscious state of mind in animation. Also, the use of Surrealist automatism had been incorporated to evoke the film towards a form of abstract and metaphysical expression, which in terms of expression and technique connects with the character in the animation to give emphasis to its relevancy with the subject matter of the work.

Attention and emotion interact intimately. Anxiety, for example, modifies attentional mechanisms to enhance the processing of threat-related information. But how can it modulate attention? Studies of the emotional Stroop task showed clearly that color naming was interfered with more by negative word distractors than by neutral distractors in anxious participants. However, few studies have investigated in what stage an emotional stimulus biases attention. The present study investigated the locus of interference in the emotional Stroop task by manipulating the SOA (Stimulus Onset Asynchrony) between the word distractor and the color target (0ms, 120ms, or 240ms). Results showed that interference occurred only with 0ms of SOA for anxious participants, whereas for non-anxious participants, there was no interference effect. These results support the view that the attentional mechanism was modulated in early stage of information processing by anxiety.

Tracheal leiomyoma is a rare benign tumor, which is composed of transformed cells of mesenchymal origin. We describe a case in which digital tomosynthesis was useful to evaluate a tracheal tumor that was overlooked on initial chest radiographs.
