Embedding young learners into the information societyChristophe Guéret
A couple of years ago, One Laptop Per Child embarked on a mission to "create educational opportunities for the world's poorest children by providing each child with a rugged, low-cost, low-power, connected laptop with content and software designed for collaborative, joyful, self-empowered learning". Today, this vision is achieved through the learning environment "Sugar" and the laptop "XO". This talk will start with an overview of OLPC's mission and the XO before focusing more on Sugar. This environment centered around "activities", a model in between document and application centric interfaces, features an interesting data model and data sharing capabilities. However, most of the data produced on the XO stays on the XO and is not accessible to the other devices. I will describe how Semantic Web technologies can be employed to further share and interconnect the data and give an overview of use-cases being implemented on top of "SemanticXO", the Semantic Web toolkit for Sugar.
These are the slides of a presentation given at http://www.w3.org/2012/06/pmod . Our current mindset when thinking about "Open Data" excludes the majority of World population from using it. This presentation highlight some of the work being done to change this.

An Evolutionary Perspective on Approximate RDF Query AnsweringChristophe Guéret
RDF is increasingly being used to represent large amounts of data on the Web. Current query evaluation strategies for RDF are inspired by databases, assuming perfect answers on finite repositories. In this paper, we present a novel query method based on evolutionary computing, which allows us to handle uncertainty, incompleteness and unsatisfiability, and deal with large datasets, all within a single conceptual framework. Our technique supports approximate answers with anytime behaviour. We present initial results and analyse next steps for improvement.

How to measure the In-situ RECD with mind440 (m4-9) and
Compass V4.5
News from Audiological Research and Communication

2. 2
This bulletin describes how to measure the Widex in-situ RECD for mind440
using Compass V4.5. The description refers to the Acoustic conditions panel
in the Preconditions window, the RECD calibration window and the RECD
measurement windows in Compass. Please refer to Compass in order to see
details of the screen. Remember that Compass offers several help functions
to explain the different options in the program: Tooltips, Solution guide, Using
the window panels and the help manual.
mind440 m4-9 includes the possibility of measuring the RECD with the hearing aid itself. The pro-
cedure is called Widex in-situ RECD and is part of the m4-9 fitting procedure. The measurement is
made using a special RECD probe that is mounted on the hearing aid.
While the mind fitting procedure takes into account all the acoustic aspects of the hearing aid and its
coupling to the ear, the precision of the fitting may be further improved by performing an individual
RECD measurement on the client. This ensures that the hearing aid delivers the exact amount of
sound pressure at the eardrum prescribed for the given hearing loss – taking into account the shape
of the individual client’s ear canal.
To perform the RECD measurement, select Widex in-situ RECD in the RECD drop-down menu in
the Acoustic conditions panel found in the Preconditions window.

After having selected the desired settings in the Preconditions window, press Next. Compass now
starts the Fitting wizard, with the in-situ RECD measurement as the first step. The measurement is
divided into two parts: (1) RECD calibration and (2) RECD measurement.
RECD calibration
1. The first step is to calibrate the hearing aid; First, place the RECD probe over the rear micro-
phone of the hearing aid. Secondly, insert the probe tube 5 mm into the hook of the hearing
aid. Please observe that the hearing aid should never be placed on the ear of the client while the
calibration is performed.

2. Mount the orange seal sliding on the probe tube on the earhook to provide a tight seal between
the hook and the tube.
3. Make sure that the noise level is low enough (in the green area), before you start the calibration.
4. Start the calibration by clicking the button Start calibration. When the measurement is done, the
calibration result is displayed as either OK or “---“ .

If the calibration failed (---), a dialog box is shown asking you to check the set-up once more and
repeat the measurement. If the calibration is OK, select Next to move on to the RECD measurement
window.
5. 5
RECD measurement
1. In the RECD measurement window, select whether you are measuring the RECD with an open
or closed vent in the “Mould used for RECD measurement” drop-down menu. If there is a vent in
the earmould, we recommend to leave it open during the measurement.
2. Secondly, we recommend that you check your client’s ear canal status with an otoscope to make
sure that conditions are normal and that the canal is not blocked by earwax.
3. Place the hearing aid on the ear, and place the probe tube and the earmould in the ear of the cli-
ent. Depending on the client, the probe should be placed at a recommended insertion depth from
the intratragal notch:
31 mm for an adult male
28 mm for an adult female
15-25 mm for infants and children
Use the orange seal as a marker to mark the distance from the tip of the tube. You may also check
the position of the probe tube at the eardrum with the otoscope after having inserted it into the
ear canal.

4. Make sure that the noise level is low enough (in the green area) before you start the measurement.
Then start the RECD measurement; the progress bar indicates how far the measurement has pro-
ceeded.
If the measurement failed, a dialog box is shown asking you to check the set-up once more and
repeat the measurement.
5. The result of the in-situ RECD measurement is shown both as a graph and as values on the
screen.
The graph shows the in-situ RECD (in dB) as a function of frequency. The red (right ear) or blue
(left ear) area indicates the range within which the measured in situ RECD is expected to fall ac-
cording to the age of your client and the vent size in the earmould.
The graphics indicate the range within which the in-situ RECD measurement is expected to fall. The tables show
the binaurally measured values in dB at the main audiometric frequencies.
6. When doing a binaural fitting, perform the measurement on the opposite ear. Alternatively you
may choose to copy the RECD measured on one ear to the opposite ear. The best result will be
obtained by performing the measurement on both ears, but in cases where this is not possible, the
other approach may be used.
The measurement of the in-situ RECD is now finished and the in-situ RECD will be included in the
fitting. Remove the RECD probe and select Next to continue to the Sensogram measurement.
