Hannah Smith_Throwing Sh*t against the wallDistilled
Hannah Smith discusses challenges and strategies for content marketing. She notes that content must entertain or educate people in order to be widely shared, rather than just advertise. Marketers should understand their audience's interests through research. While goals can include driving sales, content should also focus on the audience. Creating engaging content requires testing new ideas, accepting that most will fail, and learning from mistakes. As online consumption changes, the most important thing is for people to love a company's marketing. Success requires persistence through failures.

This document summarizes and analyzes elements from the author's horror movie trailer and compares them to techniques used in other successful horror trailers. Key elements discussed include using title cards to convey information without giving too much away, establishing shots of wooded settings, shots of intimidating antagonists in the woods seen through trees, shots of attackers overpowering victims, and an unconventional direct address from the antagonist to the audience. The analysis shows how the author's trailer employs similar visual conventions to other horror films but also takes an original approach in one scene.
The document defines a sadist as someone who receives gratification from causing pain or cruelty to others without remorse. It provides examples of sadistic characters from various cultures including Hades from Greek mythology who traps Persephone in the Underworld, Nero the Roman emperor who enjoyed watching people suffer, Jack from Lord of the Flies who murders boys to gain power, and Sweeney Todd who kills men without reason. The document examines how these characters exemplify sadism through their violent, destructive, and psychologically brutal acts without care or sympathy for their victims.

This document discusses neural networks and their mechanisms. It describes the initial random connection of neurons with initial weights of 1. It also explains how the weight between two neurons increases if one fires to the other and the other fires back. The document raises questions about the randomness, quantifying the model, and building upon the initial project through formalization and multi-threading performance improvements.
Friedrich Hundertwasser fue un artista multitalentoso austriaco conocido por su rechazo a las líneas rectas y su defensa de la armonía entre la naturaleza y la creación humana. Criticó la arquitectura moderna por ser fría y uniforme, y promovió el diseño orgánico y la vegetación espontánea en los edificios. A lo largo de su vida, diseñó varias construcciones siguiendo sus principios de integrar la naturaleza y la individualidad.

Utilization of social networking services toward accessible academic meetings
From the viewpoint of ``reasonable information accessibility,''
the popularization of real-time social networking services,
such as Twitter and Ustream,
can be regarded as the oppotunity to change academic meetings
into the ``universally designed'' events.
Accessibility should always be considered to some extent
without excessive cost.
Captioning service using automatic speech recognition is also investigated
as a part of the universally designed events using social media.
On 16 November 2011, Japan Embedded Systems Technology Association (JASA) announced that Platform Research Group of Engineering division has started work on the specification of OpenEL (Embedded Libraries) for Robot.
OpenEL for Robot is an open platform to standardize the specifications of the software implementation of robotics and control systems.
This is the Japanese version of the presentation materials that were presented at Embedded Technology 2011 in Japan. The English version is under construction.
SuMo-SS: Submodular Optimization Sensor Scattering for Deploying Sensor Netwo...Komei Sugiura
The document presents a method called Submodular Optimization Sensor Scattering (SuMo-SS) for deploying sensors from drones to maximize information gain. The sensor scattering problem is NP-hard due to combinatorial explosion. SuMo-SS handles uncertainty in sensor positions and does not suffer from combinatorial explosion, providing a (1-1/e)-approximation guarantee. Simulation results show SuMo-SS obtained larger mutual information than baseline and random selection methods for sensor deployment from drones.
Spatio-Temporal Pseudo Relevance Feedback for Large-Scale and Heterogeneous S...Komei Sugiura
The document proposes a novel spatio-temporal pseudo relevance feedback approach for scientific data retrieval. It uses Space-Time-Text (STT) information from the top retrieved results to expand the initial query. An evaluation on a test collection showed the STT approach improved recall, average precision, and number of hits compared to baselines, demonstrating its effectiveness especially for datasets with limited textual metadata. The method could potentially be applied to retrieve heterogeneous scientific and sensor data from large repositories.
