    Distributed human computation framework for linked data co-reference resolution

    No full text
    Distributed Human Computation (DHC) is a technique used to solve computational problems by incorporating the collaborative effort of a large number of humans. It is also a solution to AI-complete problems such as natural language processing. The Semantic Web with its root in AI is envisioned to be a decentralised world-wide information space for sharing machine-readable data with minimal integration costs. There are many research problems in the Semantic Web that are considered as AI-complete problems. An example is co-reference resolution, which involves determining whether different URIs refer to the same entity. This is considered to be a significant hurdle to overcome in the realisation of large-scale Semantic Web applications. In this paper, we propose a framework for building a DHC system on top of the Linked Data Cloud to solve various computational problems. To demonstrate the concept, we are focusing on handling the co-reference resolution in the Semantic Web when integrating distributed datasets. The traditional way to solve this problem is to design machine-learning algorithms. However, they are often computationally expensive, error-prone and do not scale. We designed a DHC system named iamResearcher, which solves the scientific publication author identity co-reference problem when integrating distributed bibliographic datasets. In our system, we aggregated 6 million bibliographic data from various publication repositories. Users can sign up to the system to audit and align their own publications, thus solving the co-reference problem in a distributed manner. The aggregated results are published to the Linked Data Cloud

    Intersystem soft handover for converged DVB-H and UMTS networks

    Digital video broadcasting for handhelds (DVB-H) is the standard for broadcasting Internet Protocol (IP) data services to mobile portable devices. To provide interactive services for DVB-H, the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) can be used as a terrestrial interaction channel for the unidirectional DVB-H network. The converged DVB-H and UMTS network can be used to address the congestion problems due to the limited multimedia channel accesses of the UMTS network. In the converged network, intersystem soft handover between DVB-H and UMTS is needed for an optimum radio resource allocation, which reduces network operation cost while providing the required quality of service. This paper deals with the intersystem soft handover between DVB-H and UMTS in such a converged network. The converged network structure is presented. A novel soft handover scheme is proposed and evaluated. After considering the network operation cost, the performance tradeoff between the network quality of service and the network operation cost for the intersystem soft handover in the converged network is modeled using a stochastic tree and analyzed using a numerical simulation. The results show that the proposed algorithm is feasible and has the potential to be used for implementation in the real environment

    Harapan yang Luruh Selagi Tumbuh: Perempuan dan Kehidupan Pernikahan dalam Beberapa Cerpen Terpilih Karya Catherine Lim

    No full text
    Abstrak Perempuan dan kehidupan pernikahan sering kali menjadi topik bahasan yang tak lekang oleh waktu dalam karya sastra. Namun, mengingat bahwa teks sastra merupakan satu arena pertarungan kekuasaan yang tidak lepas dari kepentingan sosial, budaya, dan politik, cara penulis laki-laki memperlakukan topik tentang perempuan dan kehidupan pernikahan biasanya berbeda dengan cara yang dilakukan oleh penulis perempuan. Ini terjadi karena pengalaman masing-masing penulis itu sangat mempengaruhi karya-karya mereka. Salah satu penulis yang pengalamannya sebagai seorang perempuan sangat mempengaruhi karya-karyanya yang bertemakan perempuan dan kehidupan pernikahan adalah Catherine Lim, seorang penulis Tionghoa dari Singapura. Melalui analisis beberapa cerpen terpilihnya dengan menggunakan perspektif antropologi sastra, makalah ini bertujuan untuk mengungkapkan bagaimana Catherine Lim mengupas kehidupan pernikahan perempuan sebagai sarana untuk menggugah kesadaran masyarakat akan ideologi patriarkal dan relasi kuasa yang masih membelenggu perempuan. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa, meskipun masyarakat telah maju dan perempuan dianggap sebagai mitra yang sejajar dengan laki-laki, pranata sosial yang ada tetap menjadikan perempuan sebagai objek, baik dalam ranah privat, maupun dalam ranah publik. Objektifikasi perempuan ini dilakukan secara konsisten dengan cara sedemikian rupa sehingga para perempuan tersebut mau tidak mau menerima objektifikasi tersebut. Namun, ketika mereka mulai menyadari dampak objektifikasi ini, mereka sudah tidak lagi mempunyai kuasa atas tubuhnya. Abstract Women and marriage life seem to be time-honored topics in literature. However, since literary texts are a contestation of power that cannot be separated from social, cultural, and political interest, the way male writers treat these topics are usually different from the way female writers do. This occurs because each writer�s personal experiences influence his/her works heavily. One writer whose experiences as a woman affect her writings in exploring women and marriage life is Catherine Lim, a Chinese Singaporean. By analyzing her work using the perspective of anthropology of literature, this paper exposes how Catherine Lim explores women�s marriage life as a vehicle for raising awareness on the patriarchal ideology and power relation that still fetter women. The finding shows that despite living in an advanced society and women being treated as equal to men, social institutions still objectify women, both in the private and public sphere. Women�s objectification are consistently carried out in such a way that women have no other choice but accept the objectification. But, when they realize the effects of the objectification, they have no power over their own body

    One step preparation of pure tau-MnAl phase with high magnetization using strip casting method

    Ferromagnetic phase of Mn-Al exhibits great potential in the rare-earth free permanent magnetic materials due to its high magnetocrystalline anisotropy, high magnetization, high Curie temperature and low cost. In this work, the strip casting technique was applied to prepare MnAl magnetic phase. X-ray diffraction and energy dispersive X-ray analyses indicate that the as-prepared Mn54Al46 strip sample consists of pure tau-MnAl magnetic phase. It is found that the composition of Mn54Al46 is suitable to prepare tau-MnAl phase during the strip casting process. The Mn54Al46 strip sample synthesized through the strip casting exhibits a fairly high magnetization of 114 emu/g under a field of 5 T, while the coercivity of iHc = 2.8 kOe, magnetization of M-5T = 63.9 emu/g at room temperature can be obtained for Mn54Al46 powder sample. This preparation method can produce a large amount of tau-phase MnAl alloy and promote mass industrialized production. (C) 2017 Author(s)
