Adversarial Attacks on A.I. Systems — NextCon, Jan 2019
Machine Learning is itself just another tool, susceptible to adversarial attacks. These can have huge implications, especially in a world with self-driving cars and other automation. In this talk, we will look at recent developments in the world of adversarial attacks on the A.I. systems, and how far we have come in mitigating these attacks.
Transforming incident Response to Intelligent Response using Graphs
The market is overflowing with vendors who are out to build—wherein, graphs are used in the Detection phase. This session showcases the collaborative efforts between Azure Security Data Science, Microsoft Research, Azure Security Assurance and Microsoft’s Threat Intelligence Center to explore the idea of using graphs during/after the Incident Response phase, wherein the IOCs have been (or in the process of being) collected. At the end of the session, audience will gain insights from their incident response process using open source tools and take steps towards automating them.
MediaEval 2015 - UNED-UV @ Retrieving Diverse Social Images Task - Poster
This paper details the participation of the UNED-UV group at the 2015 Retrieving Diverse Social Images Task. This year, our proposal is based on a multi-modal approach that firstly applies a textual algorithm based on Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) and Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering (HAC) to detect the latent topics addressed by the images to diversify them according to these topics. Secondly, a Local Logistic Regression model, which uses the low level features and some relevant and non-relevant samples, is adjusted and estimates the relevance probability for all the images in the database.

This paper describes privacy protection method based on a false coloring approach for Drone Protect Task of MediaEval 2015. The aim is to obscure regions of a video that are privacy sensitive without sacrificing intelligibility and pleasantness. False coloring transforms the original colors of pixels using a color palette into a different set of colors in which private information is harder to recognize. The method can be applied globally to an entire frame of the video or to a specific region of interest (ROI). The privacy protected output is expected to remain pleasant, and when needed, a close approximation of the original input can be recovered. Benchmarking evaluations on the mini-drone dataset show promising results, especially, for intelligibility and pleasantness criteria.

This paper introduces a new privacy filter adopted in the context of the DPT (Drone Protect Task) at MediaEval Benchmark 2015. Our proposed filter protects privacy by visually replacing sensitive RofI (Regions of Interest) by its shapes. A combination of steganography and scrambling is used in order to make this filter. Once the scrambling is applied on the pixels of the RofI, its MSB (Most Significant Bit) are hidden in the LSB (Least Significant Bit) of a cover image. Our filter fulfils four criteria defined by DPT: near-lossless reversibility, intelligibility, appropriateness and anonymization. We benchmarked the filter on the last three criteria and we get good results: 40 % for intelligibility and appropriateness, and 60 % for anonymization.

Abstract: Social networks enable multimedia sharing between worldwide users, however, there is no automatic mechanism implemented aiming to verifying multimedia use. This has been known as a highly challenging problem due to the variety of media types and huge amount of information they convey. As a participating team of MediaEval 2016, we propose a hybrid approach for detecting misused multimedia on Twitter which has been known as Verifying Multimedia Use task. Specifically, we designed a verfication system that can answer how likely an associated multimedia file is fake based on multiple forensic features and textual features, which were acquired by performing online text search and image reverse search. Next, effective post-based features and user-based features are utilized to validate the credibility of tweet posts. Finally, based on the assumption that a tweet sharing fake images or videos is likely to be fake, credibility scores of tweet posts and associated multimedia are fused to detect misused multimedia.

Abstract: This working notes paper describes the TUD-MMC entry to the MediaEval 2016 Predicting Media Interestingness Task. Noting that the nature of movie trailer shots is different from that of preceding tasks on image and video interestingness, we propose two baseline heuristic approaches based on the clear occurrence of people. MAP scores obtained on the development set and test set suggest that our approaches cover a limited but non-marginal subset of the interestingness spectrum. Most strikingly, our obtained scores on the Image and Video Subtasks are comparable or better than those obtained when evaluating the ground truth annotations of the Image Subtask against the Video Subtask and vice versa
MediaEval 2016 - Emotional Impact of Movies Task
The document describes the MediaEval 2016 Emotional Impact of Movies Task. It involves predicting the emotional impact of movies in terms of induced valence and arousal. There are two subtasks: predicting emotion for short video clips and predicting continuous emotion over longer videos on a per-second basis. The task uses datasets with ground truth emotion ratings collected through crowdsourcing and surveys to evaluate submissions. The goal is to build models and use multimedia features to automatically predict the emotional impact of movies.

Experiments show the performance of each separated modality as well as their combination.
Computational Biology, Part 4 Protein Coding Regions
The document discusses different machine learning approaches for supervised classification and sequence analysis. It describes several classification algorithms like k-nearest neighbors, decision trees, linear discriminants, and support vector machines. It also discusses evaluating classifiers using cross-validation and confusion matrices. For sequence analysis, it covers using position-specific scoring matrices, hidden Markov models, cobbling, and family pairwise search to identify new members of protein families. It compares the performance of these different machine learning methods on sequence analysis tasks.
Human age and gender Detection
Automatic gender and age classification has become quite relevant in the rise of social media platforms. However, the existing methods have not been completely successful in achieving this. Through this project, an attempt has been made to determine the gender and age based on a frame of the person. This is done by using deep learning, OpenCV which is capable of processing the real-time frames. This frame is given as input and the predicted gender and age are given as output. It is difficult to predict the exact age of a person using one frame due the facial expressions, lighting, makeup and so on so for this purpose various age ranges are taken, and the predicted age falls in one of them. The Adience dataset is used as it is a benchmark for face photos and includes various real-world imaging conditions like noise, lighting etc.
Ai use cases
The document provides an overview of machine learning use cases. It begins with an agenda that will discuss the basic framework for ML projects, model deployment options, and various ML use cases like text classification, image classification, object detection, etc. It then covers the basic 5 step framework for ML projects - defining the problem, planning the solution, acquiring and preparing data, designing and training a model, and deploying the solution. Next, it discusses popular methods for various tasks like image classification, object detection, pose estimation. Finally, it shares several use cases for each task to demonstrate real-world applications.

The document summarizes research comparing human and machine vision across various models and datasets. Three key findings are presented: 1) The robustness gap between humans and CNNs is decreasing as newer models match or exceed human performance on most datasets. 2) However, an image-level consistency gap remains, where humans make different errors than models. 3) For many cases, human-model consistency improves when models are trained on datasets an order of magnitude larger. The research aims to benchmark progress in closing these gaps.

Abstract. In digital marketing, memes have become an attractive tool for engaging an online audience. Memes have an impact on buyers’ and sellers’ online behavior and information spreading processes. Thus, the technology of generating memes is a significant tool for social media engagement. In this study, we collected a new memes dataset of ∼650K meme instances, applied state of the art Deep Learning technique – GPT-2 model [1] towards meme generation, and compared machine-generated memes with human-created. We justified that MTurk workers can be used for the approximate estimating of users’ behavior in a social network, more precisely to measure engagement. Generated memes cause the same engagement as human memes, which didn’t collect engagement in the social network (historically). Still, generated memes are less engaging then random memes created by humans.Master defence 2020 - Andrew Kurochkin - Meme Generation for Social Media Aud...

Human Emotion Recognition
This document describes a project to build a convolutional neural network (CNN) model to recognize six basic human emotions (angry, fear, happy, sad, surprise, neutral) from facial expressions. The CNN architecture includes convolutional, max pooling and fully connected layers. Models are trained on two datasets - FERC and RaFD. Experimental results show that Model C achieves the best testing accuracy of 71.15% on FERC and 63.34% on RaFD. Visualizations of activation maps and a prediction matrix are provided to analyze the model's performance and confusions between emotions. A live demo application is also developed using OpenCV to demonstrate real-time emotion recognition from video frames.

This document summarizes a research paper on generalizing deepfake detection using knowledge distillation and representation learning. The proposed FReTAL framework uses knowledge distillation to transfer knowledge from a teacher model to a student model, preventing catastrophic forgetting when adapting to new domains without source data. It also applies representation learning to leverage similar features between domains. Experiments show FReTAL outperforms baselines on deepfake benchmark datasets, achieving up to 86.97% accuracy on low-quality deepfake detection.
Video Thumbnail Selector
Presentation slides for our paper "Combining Adversarial and Reinforcement Learning for Video Thumbnail Selection", ACM ICMR 2021. https://doi.org/10.1145/3460426.3463630.
We developed a new method for unsupervised video thumbnail selection. The developed network architecture selects video thumbnails based on two criteria: the representativeness and the aesthetic quality of their visual content. Training relies on a combination of adversarial and reinforcement learning. The former is used to train a discriminator, whose goal is to distinguish the original from a reconstructed version of the video based on a small set of candidate thumbnails. The discriminator’s feedback is a measure of the representativeness of the selected thumbnails. This measure is combined with estimates about the aesthetic quality of the thumbnails (made using a SoA Fully Convolutional Network) to form a reward and train the thumbnail selector via reinforcement learning. Experiments on two datasets (OVP and Youtube) show the competitiveness of the proposed method against other SoA approaches. An ablation study with respect to the adopted thumbnail selection criteria documents the importance of considering the aesthetics, and the contribution of this information when used in combination with measures about the representativeness of the visual content.

This document describes a study that used convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for animal classification from images. The study proposed a novel method for animal face classification using CNN features. The CNN model was trained on images to classify animals into different classes. The model achieved over 90% accuracy on the test data. The authors concluded that CNNs are well-suited for image classification tasks like animal classification due to their ability to automatically extract relevant features from images. Future work could involve classifying other objects using this deep learning approach.

This work presents a method for classifying table tennis strokes using spatio-temporal convolutional neural networks. The fine-grained classification is performed on trimmed video segments recorded at 120 fps with different players performing in natural conditions. From those segments, the frames are extracted, their optical flow is computed and the pose of the player is estimated. From the optical flow amplitude, a region of interest is inferred. A three stream spatio-temporal convolutional neural network using combination of those modalities and 3D attention mechanisms is presented in order to perform classification.

The Sports Video Classification Tasks in the Multimedia Evaluation 2020 Challenge focuses on classifying different types of table tennis strokes in video segments. In this task, we - the HCMUS Team - perform multiple experiments, which includes a combination of models such as SlowFast, Optical Flow, DensePose, R2+1, Channel-Separated Convolutional Networks, to classify 21 types of table tennis strokes from video segments. In total, we submit eight runs corresponding to five different models with different sets of hyper-parameters in each of our models. In addition, we apply some pre-processing techniques on the dataset in order for our model to learn and classify more accurately. According to the evaluation results, one of our team's methods out-performs the other team's. In particular, our best run achieves 31.35\% global accuracy, and all of our methods show potential results in terms of local and global accuracy for action recognition tasks.

Human age and gender Detection
Automatic gender and age classification has become quite relevant in the rise of social media platforms. However, the existing methods have not been completely successful in achieving this. Through this project, an attempt has been made to determine the gender and age based on a frame of the person. This is done by using deep learning, OpenCV which is capable of processing the real-time frames. This frame is given as input and the predicted gender and age are given as output. It is difficult to predict the exact age of a person using one frame due the facial expressions, lighting, makeup and so on so for this purpose various age ranges are taken, and the predicted age falls in one of them. The Adience dataset is used as it is a benchmark for face photos and includes various real-world imaging conditions like noise, lighting etc.
Ai use cases
The document provides an overview of machine learning use cases. It begins with an agenda that will discuss the basic framework for ML projects, model deployment options, and various ML use cases like text classification, image classification, object detection, etc. It then covers the basic 5 step framework for ML projects - defining the problem, planning the solution, acquiring and preparing data, designing and training a model, and deploying the solution. Next, it discusses popular methods for various tasks like image classification, object detection, pose estimation. Finally, it shares several use cases for each task to demonstrate real-world applications.

The document summarizes research comparing human and machine vision across various models and datasets. Three key findings are presented: 1) The robustness gap between humans and CNNs is decreasing as newer models match or exceed human performance on most datasets. 2) However, an image-level consistency gap remains, where humans make different errors than models. 3) For many cases, human-model consistency improves when models are trained on datasets an order of magnitude larger. The research aims to benchmark progress in closing these gaps.

Abstract. In digital marketing, memes have become an attractive tool for engaging an online audience. Memes have an impact on buyers’ and sellers’ online behavior and information spreading processes. Thus, the technology of generating memes is a significant tool for social media engagement. In this study, we collected a new memes dataset of ∼650K meme instances, applied state of the art Deep Learning technique – GPT-2 model [1] towards meme generation, and compared machine-generated memes with human-created. We justified that MTurk workers can be used for the approximate estimating of users’ behavior in a social network, more precisely to measure engagement. Generated memes cause the same engagement as human memes, which didn’t collect engagement in the social network (historically). Still, generated memes are less engaging then random memes created by humans.Master defence 2020 - Andrew Kurochkin - Meme Generation for Social Media Aud...

This document summarizes a research paper on generalizing deepfake detection using knowledge distillation and representation learning. The proposed FReTAL framework uses knowledge distillation to transfer knowledge from a teacher model to a student model, preventing catastrophic forgetting when adapting to new domains without source data. It also applies representation learning to leverage similar features between domains. Experiments show FReTAL outperforms baselines on deepfake benchmark datasets, achieving up to 86.97% accuracy on low-quality deepfake detection.
Video Thumbnail Selector
Presentation slides for our paper "Combining Adversarial and Reinforcement Learning for Video Thumbnail Selection", ACM ICMR 2021. https://doi.org/10.1145/3460426.3463630.
We developed a new method for unsupervised video thumbnail selection. The developed network architecture selects video thumbnails based on two criteria: the representativeness and the aesthetic quality of their visual content. Training relies on a combination of adversarial and reinforcement learning. The former is used to train a discriminator, whose goal is to distinguish the original from a reconstructed version of the video based on a small set of candidate thumbnails. The discriminator’s feedback is a measure of the representativeness of the selected thumbnails. This measure is combined with estimates about the aesthetic quality of the thumbnails (made using a SoA Fully Convolutional Network) to form a reward and train the thumbnail selector via reinforcement learning. Experiments on two datasets (OVP and Youtube) show the competitiveness of the proposed method against other SoA approaches. An ablation study with respect to the adopted thumbnail selection criteria documents the importance of considering the aesthetics, and the contribution of this information when used in combination with measures about the representativeness of the visual content.

This work presents a method for classifying table tennis strokes using spatio-temporal convolutional neural networks. The fine-grained classification is performed on trimmed video segments recorded at 120 fps with different players performing in natural conditions. From those segments, the frames are extracted, their optical flow is computed and the pose of the player is estimated. From the optical flow amplitude, a region of interest is inferred. A three stream spatio-temporal convolutional neural network using combination of those modalities and 3D attention mechanisms is presented in order to perform classification.

Fine-grained action classification has raised new challenges compared to classical action classification problems. Sport video analysis is a very popular research topic, due to the variety of application areas, ranging from multimedia intelligent devices with user-tailored digests, up to analysis of athletes' performances. Running since 2019 as a part of MediaEval, we offer a task which consists in classifying table tennis strokes from videos recorded in natural conditions at the University of Bordeaux. The aim is to build tools for teachers, coaches and players to analyse table tennis games. Such tools could lead to an automatic profiling of the player and adaptation of his training for improving his/her sport skills more efficiently.

This paper reports on the GTH-UPM team experience in the Predicting Media Memorability task at MediaEval 2020. Teams were requested to predict memorability scores at both short-term and long-term, understanding such score as a measure of whether a video was perdurable in a viewer's memory or not. Our proposed system relies on a late fusion of the scores predicted by three sequential models, each trained over a different modality: video captions, aural embeddings and visual optical flow-based vectors. Whereas single-modality models show a low or zero Spearman correlation coefficient value, their combination considerably boosts performance over development data up to 0.2 in the short-term memorability prediction subtask and 0.19 in the long-term subtask. However, performance over test data drops to 0.016 and -0.041, respectively.

In this paper, we present the methods of approach and the main results from the Essex NLIP Team’s participation in the MediEval 2020 Predicting Media Memorability task. The task requires participants to build systems that can predict short-term and long-term memorability scores on real-world video samples provided. The focus of our approach is on the use of colour-based visual features as well as the use of the video annotation meta-data. In addition, hyper-parameter tuning was explored. Besides the simplicity of the methodology, our approach achieves competitive results. We investigated the use of different visual features. We assessed the performance of memorability scores through various regression models where Random Forest regression is our final model, to predict the memorability of videos.

Zhengyu Zhao : Fooling Blind Image Quality Assessment by Optimizing a Human-Understandable Color Filter. Proc. of MediaEval 2020, 14-15 December 2020, Online.
This paper presents the submission of our RU-DS team to the Pixel Privacy Task 2020. We propose to fool the blind image quality assessment model by transforming images based on optimizing a human-understandable color filter. In contrast to the common work that relies on small, $L_p$-bounded additive pixel perturbations, our approach yields large yet smooth perturbations. Experimental results demonstrate that in the specific context of this task, our approach is able to achieve strong adversarial effects, but has to sacrifice the image appeal.

Zhuoran Liu, Zhengyu Zhao, Martha Larson and Laurent Amsaleg : Pixel Privacy: Quality Camouflage for Social Images. Proc. of MediaEval 2020, 14-15 December 2020, Online.
High-quality social images shared online can be misappropriated for unauthorized goals, where the quality filtering step is commonly carried out by automatic Blind Image Quality Assessment (BIQA) algorithms. Pixel Privacy benchmarks privacy-protective approaches that protect privacy-sensitive images against unethical computer vision algorithms. In the 2020 task, participants are encouraged to develop camouflage methods that can effectively decrease the BIQA quality score of high-quality images and maintain image appeal. The camouflaged images need to be either imperceptible to the human eye, or it can be a visible enhancement.

Sabarinathan D and Suganya Ramamoorthy : Efficient Supervision Net: Polyp Segmentation using EfficientNet and Attention Unit. Proc. of MediaEval 2020, 14-15 December 2020, Online.
Colorectal cancer is the third most common cause of cancer worldwide. In the era of medical Industry, identifying colorectal cancer in its early stages has been a challenging problem. Inspired by these issues, the main objective of this paper is to develop a Multi supervision net algorithm for segmenting polys on a comprehensive dataset. The risk of colorectal cancer could be reduced by early diagnosis of poly during a colonoscopy. The disease and their symptoms are highly varying and always a need for a continuous update of knowledge for the doctors and medical analyst. The diseases fall into different categories and a small variation of symptoms may lead to higher rate of risk. We have taken Medico polyp challenge dataset, which consists of 1000 segmented polyp images from gastrointestinal track. We proposed an efficient Net B4 as a pre-trained architecture in multi-supervision net. The model is trained with multiple output layers. We present quantitative results on colorectal dataset to evaluate the performance and achieved good results in all the performance metrics. The experimental results proved that the proposed model is robust and provides a good level of accuracy in segmenting polyps on a comprehensive dataset for different metrics such as Dice coefficient, Recall, Precision and F2.

The Medico task, MediaEval 2020, explores the challenge of building accurate and high-performance algorithms to detect all types of polyps in endoscopic images. We proposed different approaches leveraging the advantages of either ResUnet++ or PraNet model to efficiently segment polyps in colonoscopy images, with modifications on the network structure, parameters, and training strategies to tackle various observed characteristics of the given dataset. Our methods outperform the other teams' methods, for both accuracy and efficiency. After the evaluation, we are at top 2 for task 1 (with Jaccard index of 0.777, best Precision and Accuracy scores) and top 1 for task 2 (with 67.52 FPS and Jaccard index of 0.658).

Identification of polyps in endoscopic images is critical for the diagnosis of colon cancer. Finding the exact shape and size of polyps requires the segmentation of endoscopic images. This research explores the advantage of using depth-wise separable convolution in the atrous convolution of the ResUNet++ architecture. Deep atrous spatial pyramid pooling was also implemented on the ResUNet++ architecture. The results show that architecture with separable convolution has a smaller size and fewer GFLOPs without degrading the performance too much.
Deep Conditional Adversarial learning for polyp Segmentation

Debapriya Banik and Debotosh Bhattacharjee : Deep Conditional Adversarial learning for polyp Segmentation. Proc. of MediaEval 2020, 14-15 December 2020, Online.
This approach has addressed the Medico automatic polyp segmentation challenge which is a part of Mediaeval 2020. We have proposed a deep conditional adversarial learning based network for the automatic polyp segmentation task. The network comprises of two interdependent models namely a generator and a discriminator. The generator network is a FCN employed for the prediction of the polyp mask while the discriminator enforces the segmentation to be as similar as the real segmented mask (ground truth). Our proposed model achieved a comparative result on the test dataset provided by the organizers of the challenge.
A Temporal-Spatial Attention Model for Medical Image Detection
Paper: http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-2882/paper21.pdf
Hwang Maxwell, Wu Cai, Hwang Kao-Shing, Xu Yong Si and Wu Chien-Hsing : A Temporal-Spatial Attention Model for Medical Image Detection. Proc. of MediaEval 2020, 14-15 December 2020, Online.
A local region model with attentive temporal-spatial pathways is proposed for automatically learning various target structures. The attentive spatial pathway highlights the salient region to generate bounding boxes and ignores irrelevant regions in an input image. The proposed attention mechanism allows efficient object localization and the overall predictive performance is increased because there are fewer false positives for the object detection task for medical images with manual annotations. The experimental results show that proposed models consistently increase the base architectures' predictive performance for different datasets and training sizes without undue computational efficiency.

Rabindra Khadka : Transfer of Knowledge: Fine-tuning for Polyp Segmentation with Attention. Proc. of MediaEval 2020, 14-15 December 2020, Online.
This paper describes how the transfer of prior knowledge can effectively take on segmentation tasks with the help of attention mechanisms. The UNet model pretrained on brain MRI dataset was fine-tuned with the polyp dataset. Attention mechanism was integrated to focus on relevant regions in the input images. The implemented architecture is evaluated on 200 validation images based on intersection over union and dice score between groundtruth and predicted region. The model demonstrates a promising result with computational efciency.

Adrian Krenzer and Frank Puppe : Bigger Networks are not Always Better: Deep Convolutional Neural Networks for Automated Polyp Segmentation. Proc. of MediaEval 2020, 14-15 December 2020, Online.
This paper presents our team's (AI-JMU) approach to the Medico automated polyp segmentation challenge. We consider deep convolutional neural networks to be well suited for this task. To determine the best architecture we test and compare state of the art backbones and two different heads. Finally we achieve a Jaccard index of 73.74\% on the challenge test set. We further demonstrate that bigger networks do not always perform better. However the growing network size always increases the computational complexity.

Paper: http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-2882/paper51.pdf
Amel Ksibi, Amina Salhi, Ala Alluhaidan and Sahar A. El-Rahman : Insights for wellbeing: Predicting Personal Air Quality Index using Regression Approach. Proc. of MediaEval 2020, 14-15 December 2020, Online.
Providing air pollution information to individuals enables them to understand the air quality of their living environments. Thus, the association between people’s wellbeing and the properties of the surrounding environment is an essential area of investigation. This paper proposes Air Quality Prediction through harvesting public/open data and leveraging them to get the Personal Air Quality index. These are usually incomplete. To cope with the problem of missing data, we applied the KNN imputation method. To predict Personal Air Quality Index, we apply a voting regression approach based on three base regressors which are Gradient Boosting regressor, Random Forest regressor, and linear regressor. Evaluating the experimental results using the RMSE metric, we got an average score of 35.39 for Walker and 51.16 for Car.

Trung-Quan Nguyen, Dang-Hieu Nguyen and Loc Tai Tan Nguyen : Use Visual Features From Surrounding Scenes to Improve Personal Air Quality Data Prediction Performance. Proc. of MediaEval 2020, 14-15 December 2020, Online.
In this paper, we propose a method to predict the personal air quality index in an area by using the combination of the levels of the following pollutants: PM2.5, NO2, and O3, measured from the nearby weather stations of that area, and the photos of surrounding scenes taken at that area. Our approach uses the Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) technique to estimate the missing air pollutant levels and then use regression to integrate visual features from taken photos to optimize the predicted values. After that, we can use those values to calculate the Air Quality Index (AQI). The results show that the proposed method may not improve the performance of the prediction in some cases.

Unlocking the mysteries of reproduction: Exploring fecundity and gonadosomati...
The pygmy halfbeak Dermogenys colletei, is known for its viviparous nature, this presents an intriguing case of relatively low fecundity, raising questions about potential compensatory reproductive strategies employed by this species. Our study delves into the examination of fecundity and the Gonadosomatic Index (GSI) in the Pygmy Halfbeak, D. colletei (Meisner, 2001), an intriguing viviparous fish indigenous to Sarawak, Borneo. We hypothesize that the Pygmy halfbeak, D. colletei, may exhibit unique reproductive adaptations to offset its low fecundity, thus enhancing its survival and fitness. To address this, we conducted a comprehensive study utilizing 28 mature female specimens of D. colletei, carefully measuring fecundity and GSI to shed light on the reproductive adaptations of this species. Our findings reveal that D. colletei indeed exhibits low fecundity, with a mean of 16.76 ± 2.01, and a mean GSI of 12.83 ± 1.27, providing crucial insights into the reproductive mechanisms at play in this species. These results underscore the existence of unique reproductive strategies in D. colletei, enabling its adaptation and persistence in Borneo's diverse aquatic ecosystems, and call for further ecological research to elucidate these mechanisms. This study lends to a better understanding of viviparous fish in Borneo and contributes to the broader field of aquatic ecology, enhancing our knowledge of species adaptations to unique ecological challenges.
Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.
The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.
Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths Forward
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.

hematic appreciation test is a psychological assessment tool used to measure an individual's appreciation and understanding of specific themes or topics. This test helps to evaluate an individual's ability to connect different ideas and concepts within a given theme, as well as their overall comprehension and interpretation skills. The results of the test can provide valuable insights into an individual's cognitive abilities, creativity, and critical thinking skillsThe cost of acquiring information by natural selection
This is a short talk that I gave at the Banff International Research Station workshop on Modeling and Theory in Population Biology. The idea is to try to understand how the burden of natural selection relates to the amount of information that selection puts into the genome.
It's based on the first part of this research paper:

Applied Science: Thermodynamics, Laws & Methodology.pdf
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.
Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.
