Collective intelligence utilizes information from many individuals to improve applications and services. It is demonstrated through practices like tagging on Facebook, friend suggestions, targeted advertising based on user activity, and Google search rankings which are influenced by large numbers of users contributing content online. When more people participate in online platforms, the services can become more useful and engaging for all.
The document summarizes how the student's music magazine front cover and content pages use, develop, or challenge conventions of real music magazines. For the front cover, the student followed conventions like using a band banner and center image but challenged conventions with text placement. For content pages, the student used a layout inspired by NME but challenged conventions with formal elements and rearranging some sections. The goal was to appeal to an intended audience of older indie/rock music fans.

Missing-Value Handling in Dynamic Model Estimation using IMPL Alkis Vazacopoulos
Presented in this short document is a description of how IMPL handles missing-values or missing-data when estimating dynamic models which inherently involve time-lagged or time-shifted input and output variables. Missing-values in a data set imply that for some reason the data is not available most likely due to a mal-functioning instrument or even lack of proper accounting. Missing-data handling is relatively well-studied especially for time-series or dynamic data given that it is not as easy as removing, ignoring or deleting bad sections of data when static or steady-state models are calibrated (Honaker and King, 2010; Smits and Baggelaar, 2010; Fisher and Waclawski, 2015). Unfortunately, all of their methods involve what is known as “imputation” i.e., replacing or substituting missing-data with some reasonably assumed value which is at the very least is a biased estimate. When regression techniques such as PLS and PCR are used (Nelson et. al., 2006) then missing-data can be handled without imputation by computing the input-output covariance matrices excluding the contribution from the missing-values given the temporal and structural redundancy in the system. However, it is shown in Dayal (1996) that using PLS and other types of regression techniques such as Canonical Correlation Regression (CCR) and Reduced Rank Regression (RRR) to fit non-parsimonious and non-parametric finite impulse/step response models (FIR/FSR), that this is not as reliable as fitting lower-ordered transfer functions especially considering the robust stability of the resulting model predictive controller if that is its intended use.

This document introduces a Technopreneur package that costs 3,988 and includes products and materials to help individuals start their own business selling mobile phone loads and services. Technopreneurs can earn commissions on loads sold through access cards they distribute as well as bonuses for recruiting other Technopreneurs. Following a binary model, they can build a sales team across the country and globally, and the document provides a hypothetical example where one Technopreneur earns over 1.9 million in the first year and over 10.8 million in the second year starting with only a 3,988 capital investment.
Ping.fm is a free social networking service that allows users to post updates simultaneously to multiple social networks. It enables users to manage their various social media accounts through a single interface and view thumbnail images from Twitter and Instagram in a unified timeline.
The document provides an overview of the history and development of mixed martial arts competitions from early 1900s contests in Europe and Brazil to the establishment of the UFC in 1993. It then outlines training programs and exercises for MMA with phases focusing on injury prevention, increasing strength and power, and sport-specific drills. The final sections detail sample workout routines incorporating exercises like burpees, squats, punches, and kicks to improve athletes' conditioning for MMA competitions.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Gran Colombia University student Claudia Cecilia Riascos wrote about cooperation and competition for her upper English class. She defined cooperation as working together for a common purpose or benefit. Competition was defined as rivalry for supremacy or a prize. The student noted that it is important for teachers to understand and teach students about the importance of both cooperation and competition.

The AutoNotes Automobile Maintenance System is an iOS app that helps users track information about used cars they want to purchase, their current vehicle's maintenance and service history, and find recommended local workshops. It gathers performance and quality data on individual cars and allows users to check a vehicle's exact condition before buying. Additional features include a digital logbook, automatic service reminders, appointment booking, and sharing notes with others.
This document is from Institucion Educativa La Gabriela and presents a methodology project by Maira Mosquera Ramírez for 9th grade students. It compares images from "before" and "after" across 14 pages to demonstrate changes and improvements in various areas through photos. The final page lists the source of the images as Google Images.
The document outlines the key parts of the human body including bones, joints, muscles, and internal organs. It states that bones make up the skeleton and help us move, joints are where two bones connect to allow movement, muscles help move bones by contracting and extending, and internal organs perform critical functions like breathing, digestion, and blood circulation.
