Representation theories
The document discusses several theories of representation: Laura Mulvey's male gaze theory, which argues that women are depicted in film for the visual pleasure of men; Jean Baudrillard's concept of hyperreality, where media representations become more real than reality; Richard Dyer's view that stereotypes indirectly promote inequality by influencing how groups are seen and treated. It also mentions Stuart Hall's theory of dominant ideology, Antonio Gramsci's concept of hegemony, and Claude Levi-Strauss's ideas about binary oppositions and dominant/subordinate groups in representation.
Gender representation
This document discusses gender representation in music videos from feminist and post-feminist perspectives. It outlines research findings that music videos typically portray males as dominant and competent while females are more sexualized. Feminism critiques this as oppressive, viewing women as sex objects for the male gaze. Post-feminism sees some modern portrayals as empowering by showing women enjoying their sexuality and being independent and confident. The document uses the music video for "Buttons" by The Pussycat Dolls and Snoop Dogg to illustrate feminist and post-feminist analyses of gender representation.
Ethnic stereotypes
This document discusses representation and textual analysis for media studies examinations. It focuses on analyzing representations of ethnicity and sexuality through techniques like mise-en-scene, camerawork, editing and sound. Stereotypical portrayals of different ethnic groups like Afro-Caribbean, East Asian and Latin American are outlined. Representations of sexuality, both heterosexual and homosexual, are also described in terms of common stereotypes.

Representation 7 areas intro
Representation describes how signs like media texts stand in for and depict reality. Producers intentionally frame reality through signs like editing and camerawork to position texts ideologically. Audiences make sense of reality through these representations. Common representations of social groups in media include stereotypes like criminal black men, nerdy white men, sexy Latinas, and helpless disabled people. Understanding how media represent social groups through signs is important for recognizing the ideologies that shape perceptions of reality.
Media Revision notes
This document summarizes and analyzes several theories related to representations in media:
- Van Zoonen's theory discusses how media portrays gender stereotypes that reinforce societal views of femininity and masculinity.
- Gilroy's post-colonialist theory examines how ethnic minorities are often depicted as powerless and marginalized compared to depictions of white Westerners as powerful and important.
- An example news article is analyzed applying Gilroy's theory, finding depictions that portray white politicians as having power over ethnic minorities.
Laura mulvey- Male gaze
Laura Mulvey argues that traditional media representations are dominated by the male gaze, with men in active roles and women in passive, objectified roles. Women are typically shown as sexual objects for male gratification or in stereotypical roles like wives and mothers. However, the Alien franchise challenges these norms with the strong, self-reliant heroine Ellen Ripley. Over time, as women's real-world roles changed, media began to feature more career-driven and empowered female characters, though they still tended to conform to stereotypes or be objectified. Misogyny refers to the contempt or hatred of women and girls.
Question 2
The media product represents several social groups:

These stereotypes are still sometimes present today but representation is improving with more positive and diverse portrayals that move beyond stereotypes.
TV Drama - Representation & Gender Introduction
This document discusses representations of gender in media. It notes that stereotypes are socially constructed and reflected dominant ideologies that can be reinforced or challenged through media representations. It provides examples of how some blockbuster sci-fi films in the 1990s created new "countertypes" or positive stereotypes of black male heroes that countered previous negative stereotypes. The document also discusses how femininity and masculinity tend to be represented through common stereotypical characteristics and genres, and how these representations can reinforce gender stereotypes, particularly through techniques like camera shots, mise-en-scene, editing, and sound. Activities are included for analyzing gender representations and stereotypes.
Feminist Theory
This document summarizes the work of several theorists on gender and cinema. Laura Mulvey introduced the concept of the male gaze in film and how it reduces women to objects.

This LF Energy webinar took place June 20, 2024. It featured:
-Alex Thornton, LF Energy
-Hallie Cramer, Google
-Daniel Roesler, UtilityAPI
-Henry Richardson, WattTime
In response to the urgency and scale required to effectively address climate change, open source solutions offer significant potential for driving innovation and progress. Currently, there is a growing demand for standardization and interoperability in energy data and modeling. Open source standards and specifications within the energy sector can also alleviate challenges associated with data fragmentation, transparency, and accessibility. At the same time, it is crucial to consider privacy and security concerns throughout the development of open source platforms.
This webinar will delve into the motivations behind establishing LF Energy’s Carbon Data Specification Consortium. It will provide an overview of the draft specifications and the ongoing progress made by the respective working groups.
Three primary specifications will be discussed:
-Discovery and client registration, emphasizing transparent processes and secure and private access
-Customer data, centering around customer tariffs, bills, energy usage, and full consumption disclosure
-Power systems data, focusing on grid data, inclusive of transmission and distribution networks, generation, intergrid power flows, and market settlement data
Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMs
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

"NATO Hackathon Winner: AI-Powered Drug Search", Taras Kloba
This is a session that details how PostgreSQL's features and Azure AI Services can be effectively used to significantly enhance the search functionality in any application.
In this session, we'll share insights on how we used PostgreSQL to facilitate precise searches across multiple fields in our mobile application. The techniques include using LIKE and ILIKE operators and integrating a trigram-based search to handle potential misspellings, thereby increasing the search accuracy.
We'll also discuss how the azure_ai extension on PostgreSQL databases in Azure and Azure AI Services were utilized to create vectors from user input, a feature beneficial when users wish to find specific items based on text prompts. While our application's case study involves a drug search, the techniques and principles shared in this session can be adapted to improve search functionality in a wide range of applications. Join us to learn how PostgreSQL and Azure AI can be harnessed to enhance your application's search capability.
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

- 1. PULUBI • Beggars who wanted to witness the trial of Mang Serapio.
- 2. PULUBIS ARE… • Generally (yes, Filipinos, but also meant as) the “masa” (mass), or part of the “masa” who get to observe the trial. • In the book, the pulubis have very small roles to play, here, their roles are highlighted to reflect what society is negatively capable of. • Notions or social practices or the negative aspects of Pinoys which are focused here are: shame-oriented (major concern of social-approval, acceptance), gaya-gaya (emphasis on façade, palabas, pakitang tao, pagyayabang), particularism (prefers to be loyal to a certain group), colonial mentality, crab mentality, usapang kartero (gossips, which some information is added or subtracted); and status consciousness (status more than anything else).
- 3. IF YOU DISAGREE TO THIS… • Then it’s UP TO YOU to prove if you belong with these kind of (negative) pulubis, • OR NOT—that you are a TRUE PILIPINO—the kind of Filipinos worth dying for.
- 4. UNANG (1ST) PULUBI • Unang Pulubi is seen to be a personal friend of pulubi 2. She, more or less, share the same traits as pulubi 2. • Pulubi 1 is shame-oriented, and she has lines which are more deliberate or cautious than the other two—like she’s thinking twice of what to say before saying.
- 5. Jessa Patrocinio as Unang Pulubi Jessa Unang Pulubi
- 6. IKALAWANG (2ND) PULUBI • This pulubi shows more concern of “status consciousness”, and shows the fact that Filipinos or this society is attached to the internet especially twitter and facebook.
- 7. Sophiya Santos as Ikalawang Pulubi Sophiya Ikalawang Pulubi
- 8. IKATLONG (3RD) PULUBI • Shows particularism, and hint of sarcasm or the “kaloko” towards her fellowmen kind of aspect— the shallow jokes which work so well in the masses. • Also, Pulubi 3 will be shown to be an avid supporter of her “idols” (mga tagapagtanggol and mga saksi), and is hinted to look down on her fellowmen.
- 9. Michelle Elegio as Ikatlong Pulubi Michelle Ikatlong Pulubi
- 10. BANTAY “bantay” or guards who will escort Serapio in the court, and are watching his every move.
- 11. PILAY Pilay, or people with disabilities in gait and posture, who are known to be the underlings of the officers of the Federacion.
- 12. UNANG (1ST) BANTAY/PILAY • As Unang Bantay, he guards and occasionally restrains Serapio, together with Ikalawang Bantay. • As Unang Pilay, he will be a foil character of a fool known as “that certain Phil. senator”, with Iskul Bukol corniness by the three stooges: Tito, Vic, and Joey—from the “ngee!” with matching corny actions, to basically showing how one of these three stooges managed to get a seat in the senate—and tried to ruin our ONLY REAL FREEDOM: the internet. This pilay reflects him.
- 13. Eleuterio Arreza, Jr. as Unang Bantay / Unang Pilay Jun-Jun
- 14. IKALAWANG (2ND) BANTAY / PILAY • Together with the Unang Bantay, Ikalawang Bantay guards and occasionally restrains Serapio, together with Ikalawang Bantay. • As Ikalawang Pilay, this character depicts a relatively normal person, rational, and just follows whatever is ordered/tasked upon.
