SlideWiki – A Platform for Authoring FAIR Educational Content
No full textSlideWiki.org is a Web-based OpenCourseWare (OCW) authoring system that enables educators and learners to collaborate on creating, sharing, re-using and re-purposing multi-lingual open educational content. The SlideWiki platform allows people to author FAIR(Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) educational content.SlideWiki supports many features to semantically-enrich educational con-tent to support FAIR authoring. In this paper we will present those features of the platform such as Linked Data interface, manual and automatic content annotation as well as content linking and metadataSee CEUR version on http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-2198/paper_108.pd
Learning for Verification in Embedded Systems: A Case Study
No full textVerification of embedded systems is challenging whenever control programs rely on black-box hardware components. Unless precise specifications of such components are fully available, learning their structured models is a powerful enabler for verification, but it can be inefficient when the system to be learned is data-intensive rather than control-intensive. We contribute a methodology to attack this problem based on a specific class of automata which are well suited to model systems wherein data paths are known to be decoupled from control paths. We test our approach by combining learning and verification to assess the correctness of grey-box programs relying on FIFO register circuitry to control an elevator system
Shades of Feeling: How Facial Color Variations Influence Emotional and Health Perception
No full textABSTRACT This study investigated how color variations in facial expressions influence our perception of emotions and health. Participants viewed color‐manipulated (CIE LAB color space) face images depicting seven emotional states and indicated their perceptions of each image's emotion and health. Our results suggest that facial color influences the perception of threat‐related emotions such as anger and disgust, as well as health perception. Increasing facial redness intensified the perception of anger, while increasing yellowness and lightness heightened the perception of disgust. Lightness affected perceptions of happiness and sadness, with lighter happy faces appearing happier and lighter sad faces appearing sadder. Additionally, enhancing redness and yellowness on faces led participants to perceive them as healthier. Our findings add to the existing literature and provide important insights into the role of colors in perceiving different emotions and health. These insights may significantly impact social interaction and communication, especially in situations where facial expressions play a critical role
Fractional Odd-Dimensional Mechanics
No full textThe classical Nambu mechanics is generalized to involve fractional derivatives using two different methods. The first method is based on the definition of fractional exterior derivative and the second one is based on extending the standard velocities to the fractional ones. Fractional Nambu mechanics may be used for nonintegrable systems with memory. Further, Lagrangian which is generate fractional Nambu equations is defined.

The Complete Muhammad Ali
No full textIncluding material and photographs not included in most of the 100 other books about the champion, Ishmael Reed's The Complete Muhammad Ali is more than just a biography-it is a fascinating portrait of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st. An honest, balanced portrayal of Ali, the book includes voices that have been omitted from other books. It charts Ali's evolution from Black Nationalism to a universalism, but does not discount the Nation of Islam and Black Nationalism's important influence on his intellectual development. Filipino American author Emil Guillermo speaks about how "The Thrilla' In Manila" brought the Philippines into the 20th century. Fans of Muhammad Ali, boxing fans, and those interested in modern African American history and the Nation of Islam will be fascinated by this biography by an accomplished American author.Intro -- DEDICATION -- INTRODUCTION -- The Curious History of an Icon -- CHAPTER 1 -- CHAPTER 2 -- CHAPTER 3 -- CHAPTER 4 -- CHAPTER 5 -- CHAPTER 6 -- CHAPTER 7 -- Did the Secret Government Fear a U.S. Muslim/Overseas Muslim Alliance? -- CHAPTER 8 -- CHAPTER 9 -- The Break Between the Prophet and his Disciple -- CHAPTER 10 -- CHAPTER 11 -- CHAPTER 12 -- The GOAT (Greatest Of All Time): Ali or Louis? -- CHAPTER 13 -- The Nation of Islam, the Mob, Showdowns in Canada and Sonny Liston -- CHAPTER 14 -- CHAPTER 15 -- The Taunts: Marketing or Racism? -- CHAPTER 16 -- CHAPTER 17 -- CHAPTER 18 -- CHAPTER 19 -- Boxing and the Brain -- CHAPTER 20 -- Ali's Feet -- CHAPTER 21 -- Mr. Dick -- CHAPTER 22 -- CHAPTER 23 -- The Opening Ceremonies, November 2005 -- CHAPTER 24 -- December 2005, Las Vegas -- CHAPTER 25 -- CHAPTER 26 -- June 16, 2004 -- CHAPTER 27 -- CHAPTER 28 -- CHAPTER 29 -- Aix-en-Provence -- CHAPTER 30 -- Ali as a Black Nationalist -- San Francisco, January 2004 Black Liberation Book Fair -- CHAPTER 31 -- January 31, 2004 -- CHAPTER 32 -- October 2005, Chicago -- CHAPTER 33 -- Why Ali remained with Elijah instead of following Malcolm -- CHAPTER 34 -- CHAPTER 35 -- February 4, 2006, Oakland, California -- CHAPTER 36 -- Like Zeus Descending from Mount Olympus -- CHAPTER 37 -- CHAPTER 38 -- Tuesday, February 28, 2006, New York -- CHAPTER 39 -- Bigger Than Boxing -- CHAPTER 40 -- Tribes Gallery, New York, April 2006 -- CHAPTER 41 -- June 2006, Louisville, Kentucky -- CHAPTER 42 -- CHAPTER 43 -- CHAPTER 45 -- Bad Company -- CHAPTER 46 -- Coxson, A Very Charming Rogue -- CHAPTER 47 -- Ali and the largest embezzlement scheme in Wells Fargo history -- CHAPTER 48 -- CHAPTER 49 -- "Lonnie is a stabilizing force."-Harry Belafonte -- October 29, 2006 -- CHAPTER 50 -- Abdul Rahman -- CHAPTER 51 -- CHAPTER 52 -- CHAPTER 53How Will Ali Be Remembered?

Automatic Test-Pattern Generation for Grey-Box Programs
No full textIn the context of structural testing, automatic test-pattern generation (ATPG) may fail to provide suites covering 100% of the testing requirements for grey-box programs, i.e., Applications wherein source code is available for some parts (white-box), but not for others (black-box). Furthermore, test suites based on abstract models may elicit behaviors on the actual program that diverge from the intended ones. In this paper, we present a new ATPG methodology to reduce divergence without increasing manual effort. This is achieved by (i) learning models of black-box components as finite-state machines, and (ii) composing the learnt models with the white-box components to generate test-suites for the grey-box program. Experiments with a prototypical implementation of our methodology show that it yields measurable improvements over two comparable state-of-the-art solutions
