Women\u27s Cultural Education and Occupation in Serial Novels in the Early Showa Period : Focusing on Mother by Turumi Yusuke(1929)
No full textThis paper examines how the norm of good wife and wise mother was discussed through the usage of the word “educated” in Yusuke Tsurumi’s Mother, serialized in Fujin Club from May 1927 to June 1929. The Fujin Club, started in 1920 by Dai Nippon Yubenkai Kodansha, was a magazine read by many working women and girl students in their early teens to their early twenties. Through collaboration between Seiji Noma, president of Kodansha, who tried to present the mother as an ideal female figure, and author and politician Yusuke Tsurumi, the series Mother was started. It can be considered that Asako, the leading character of Mother, who overcomes various crises in life through ideal education obtained through reading and school, could garner the empathy of the women of those times who dreamt of being independent. However, since success as a working woman was for the progressive future of her son, Asako’s success ultimately gets attributed to the norm of good wife and wise mother. However, rather than seeing the series Mother of the Fujin Club as propaganda, the author would like to consider the significance of the series to lie in its potential as a text through which the Kodansha culture, considered a symbol of anti-cultural education strategically utilized the masses’desire for cultural education.査読研究論文Refereed Paper

SVGEditBench: A Benchmark Dataset for Quantitative Assessment of LLM's SVG Editing Capabilities
No full textText-to-image models have shown progress in recent years. Along with this
progress, generating vector graphics from text has also advanced. SVG is a
popular format for vector graphics, and SVG represents a scene with XML text.
Therefore, Large Language Models can directly process SVG code. Taking this
into account, we focused on editing SVG with LLMs. For quantitative evaluation
of LLMs' ability to edit SVG, we propose SVGEditBench. SVGEditBench is a
benchmark for assessing the LLMs' ability to edit SVG code. We also show the
GPT-4 and GPT-3.5 results when evaluated on the proposed benchmark. In the
experiments, GPT-4 showed superior performance to GPT-3.5 both quantitatively
and qualitatively. The dataset is available at

Strip lateral position control using electromagnets in continuous processing line
No full textIn continuous metal strip processing lines, such as pickling, annealing and surface treatment lines, lateral instability of strips is a common problem. Strip lateral movement has a bad influence on productivity of the processing lines. A simple and effective device to control a lateral position of a strip is required because conventional preventions such as a steering roll and crown roll are not effective. In this study, a method of controlling a strip lateral position using electromagnets was investigated. First, theoretical equations were derived to predict capability to control a strip. Next, the derived theory was verified compared with lab experiments. The results obtained can be summarized as follows: (1) The theoretical equations of velocity of lateral movement are derived from inclination when the strip is attracted by electromagnet(s). The inclination is calculable from geometric relation. (2) It is found that the theoretical equations are valid by lab experiments in the conditions of changing attracting displacement and line speed. Controlling lateral movement using electromagnets is possible, and the control capability can be estimated by the derived theory. (3) The velocity of lateral movement in the case of attracting the half of strip width is three times as fast in the case of attracting the edge of the strip
Deriving safety constraints for integration of unmanned aircraft systems into the national airspace by application of STECA
No full textThesis: S.M. in Technology and Policy, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, School of Engineering, Institute for Data, Systems, and Society, Technology and Policy Program, 2016.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 129-132).Unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) have been used for years especially in the military. However, the operation of UAS in civil aviation has been limited since there are a lot of uncertainties: a regulatory scheme needs to be established and associated technologies need to be developed. This thesis contributes to both technology development and establishing a regulatory scheme for UAS by generating safety constraints using the new methodology developed by Professor Leveson and Dr. Fleming. This methodology is called "'Systems-Theoretic Early Concept Analysis" (STECA) and is based on Systems-Theoretic Accident Model and Processes (STAMP) analysis, which is also developed by the professor. STECA has potential to generate more safety constraints that have not been considered otherwise in the early stage of development and this allows the producer to redesign the entire system with potentially less cost. This thesis illustrates why and how STECA can be powerful to support integration of UAS into NAS. In addition, this thesis actually demonstrates how STECA derives safety constraints as a case study and shows how the safety constraints should be integrated in the system development.by Yusuke Urano.S.M. in Technology and Polic
