E-Chequer: A Smart Exam -Checking Machine using Image Processing Technique
No full textThis study developed an E-Chequer: A Smart Exam-Checking Machine Using Image Processing Technique. The research aims to identify the feasibility and effectiveness of using image processing techniques for automated exam grading among secondary level teachers in public schools. Specifically, it aims to (1) to develop a system that will help secondary-level teachers in terms of functionality, reliability, efficiency, and usability in checking the exams, (2) to identify the significant differences between the conventional way and the designed project in terms of checking exams. (3) to build a machine that will help the secondary level teachers lessen their workload. A great significance of this study is speed and efficiency when it comes to checking, assessment and data analysis of the students’ exam papers. A machine can check a large amount of papers in a small amount of time compared to a human teacher. A Developmental Research Method concept was employed with 15 preliminary respondents and 13 evaluators, that includes secondary level teachers and professionals. The data were analyzed using statistical analysis. The device obtained an error rate of 1.33%, a precision of 100%, a recall of 96%, and an F1 score of 97.96%. Moreover, the accuracy of the device, based on the calculated Precision, Recall, and F1 Score, is 96%. The overall rating for the design project is 4.25 out of 5, showing that the respondents AGREE that the device meets the standard features and characteristics for property evaluation and serves the needs of the stakeholders, and so holds value. The device can perform bulk checking, and the scanning rate is only 9 exam papers per minute. Also, it only accepts A5 paper size and is limited to the customized answer sheet and 50 items only. For the volume of the exam paper, it can handle a maximum of 50 exam papers in one go. The contributing factors to paper jams include the quality and condition of the paper used and incorrect loading of the paper tray
Detective fiction in Cuban society and culture.
No full textPhDThe object of this thesis is to reach towards an understanding of Cuban society through a
study of its detective fiction and more particularly contemporary Cuban society through
the novels of the author and critic, Leonardo Padura Fuentes.
The method has been to trace the development of Cuban detective writing and to
read Padura Fuentes in the light of the work of twentieth century Western European
literary critics and philosophers including Raymond Williams, Antonio Gramsci, Terry
Eagleton, Roland Barthes, Jean Paul Sartre, Michel Foucault, Jean François Lyotard and
Jean Baudrillard in order to gain a better understanding of the social and historical
context from which this genre emerged.
By concentrating on the literary texts, I have explored readings which lead out into
an analysis of the broader philosophical, political and historical issues raised by the
Cuban revolution. Since it deals primarily with modes of deviance and notions of legality
and justice within the context of the modern state, detective fiction is particularly well
suited to this type of investigation. The intention is to show how this is as valid in the
Cuban context as it is in advanced capitalist societies where such research has already
been carried out with some success.
The thesis comprises an introduction, ten chapters and a conclusion. The chapters
are divided into three sections. Chapters 1 to 3 attempt a broad theoretical, historical and
socio-political analysis of the cultural reality within which the Cuban revolutionary
detective genre emerged. Chapters 4 to 6 analyse the Cuban detective narrative from its
inception in the early part of the twentieth century until the emergence of Leonardo
Padura Fuentes as the foremost exponent of the genre in Cuba after 1991. Chapters 7-
10 concentrate upon the work of Leonardo Padura Fuentes, offering a reading of his
detective tetralogy informed by the preceding discussion.
The contribution made by the thesis to knowledge of the subject is to build upon the
work of Seymour Menton and Amelia S. Simpson on the development of the Cuban
detective novel and to provide analyses of the pre-Revolutionary Cuban detective
narrative and the work of Leonardo Padura Fuentes for the first time in the English
language. The thesis concludes that the study of this popular genre in Cuba is of crucial
importance to the scholar who wishes to reach as full an understanding of the social
dynamics within that society as possible. In particular, it proves that Cuban detective
fiction provides a useful barometer of social change which records the shifts in the Cuban
Zeitgeist that have taken place over the past century
Design and Development of Automated Soldering Robot Machine
No full textThe Soldering Robot Machine was a clever, portable automated PCB assembly equipment that was the subject of this research project. The tool uses Arksoft Mach3 and Aspire software to drill and solder holes using the G-Code programming language. The researchers used a descriptive and experimental design method, drawing on their experience integrating hardware and software, and they iteratively tried and failed to create the device. PCB enthusiasts, designers, and experts evaluated the Soldering Robot Machine to determine its usability, functionality, portability, reliability, and efficiency. The obtained results from the evaluation were utilized to describe the device, ascertain its functionality, and establish its acceptability. The device was described, its functionality was established, and its acceptance was established using the evaluation findings that were received. Various electronic and electrical components were used o build the device, and experimental design showed it has successfully located processes and performed drilling characterization, proving its potential for PCB manufacture
Aqui nessa fronteira onde tu vê beira de linha tu vai ver cuento...: tradições orais na fronteira entre Argentina, Brasil e Uruguai
No full textTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Antrolopologia Social.Este trabalho aborda o contexto de transmissão das tradições orais da fronteira entre Argentina, Brasil e Uruguai, sob a hipótese de que a circulação de narrativas cria, nas zonas vizinhas destes três países, uma cultura comum. Inicialmente, o referencial etnográfico derivou na realização de um mapeamento das características da oralidade na região: quem são os contadores, como executam suas performances, quais são os temas recorrentes de seus causos, quais são os locais onde ocorrem as "rodas de causo", os horários preferidos para a sua narração e como se caracteriza a participação dos ouvintes. A análise deste material é realizada com base em duas perspectivas, das narrativas como expressão da experiência (com foco sobre os eventos narrados) e das narrativas como performance (com foco sobre os eventos narrativos), a partir das quais são discutidas especificidades do ethos local (gaúcho ou gaucho), tais como o apelo à ruralidade (nas referências à "campanha" e à relação com o cavalo), a mobilidade dos indivíduos através da fronteira, a vivência

Eyewitness accounts of 'the Indies' in the Later Medieval West: reading, reception, and re-use (c. 1300-1500)
No full textDespite increased mercantile and missionary contact between the Latin West and India and China between the thirteenth and fifteenth centuries, scholars have often
noted that Western Europe's knowledge of India, as judged by geographical texts from the period, changed surprisingly little during this time. This thesis employs
some of the methodologies of reception studies in order to investigate the role played by first-hand travel accounts in the construction and change of concepts of the Indies
during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. It investigates in particular the reception in Italy, France and England of the information about the area known as
India or the 'three Indies' presented in the texts produced by two Italian travellers to the East: the Divisament dou monde of the Venetian merchant Marco Polo (c. 1298),
and the Relatio of the Franciscan missionary Odorico da Pordenone (1330).
The thesis falls into three distinct parts. In the first section, I contextualise the project with a broad survey of the Latin European ideas of India in the late thirteenth
and early fourteenth centuries and with an outline of the travellers' journeys and their contexts. The second part of the thesis provides a broad overview of the
circumstances of diffusion of the two travel accounts in England, France and Italy over the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, before conducting a detailed, manuscriptbased
investigation of the ways in which the two accounts of India were approached by their early readers. This investigation focuses principally upon the presentation
and possible modes of reception of the texts' geographical and ethnographic details and relies heavily on the evidence of presentation, paratext and the traces of reading
present in the physical texts of the accounts.
The third and final part of the thesis considers the evidence of the reception of elements from first-hand travel accounts in other textual and cartographic
productions. Proceeding on the basis of case studies, it demonstrates that first-hand accounts of 'the Indies' were used by the authors and compilers of cosmo graphical
texts in this period in a variety of ways. It suggests, however, that the manner and context of the deployment of elements from such accounts often tended to assimilate
these with, rather than distinguish them from, the writings of accepted authorities. This section also contrasts the way that details from travel accounts were re-used in
texts with the way the same information was handled in the composition of maps. Finally, by analysis of the ways eyewitness accounts of the Indies were re-used in
certain ambiguous and comic texts produced in this period, the thesis sheds light on an underexplored aspect of the reception both of eyewitness information and of the
genres in which it appeared. The appendices contain tables presenting information relative to the manuscripts discussed that support the arguments presented in section
two
Physical and geochemical characterisation of canal sediments in the Black Country, West Midlands.
No full textA thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the University of
Wolverhampton for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.)Potentially harmful elements (PHEs) have been researched in a wide variety of disciplines, including pedology, chemistry, pollution science and medicine. Within the scientific community, emphasis has usually been placed on the toxic elements, such as cadmium, chromium, lead and arsenic, but rarely has there been consideration of interactions between PHEs, the sediment matrix and processes occurring in the sediments. Dredging of canals is needed for navigability purposes and consequently testing of dredged sediments (to assess whether sediments are hazardous) and landfilling can be costly for British Waterways facing constantly changing regulations and reduction in government grants. PHE mobility and availability in canal sediments can be affected by oxygen availability, pH and Redox. Remediation is thus becoming a priority for British Waterways to limit their operational costs. Zeolites, a type of remediation tool, have been widely studied in the past 30 years due to their attractive properties, such as molecular-sieving, high cation exchange capacities and their affinity for PHEs. The pilot study to investigate the efficiency of the clinoptilolite showed that there was a concentration difference between PHEs adsorbed by the clinoptilolite and the PHE concentration lost from the sediments from three sites in the West Midlands. Thorough characterisation of the sediments was needed to understand the speciation of the PHEs and the secondary processes occurring in the sediments. The different components of the sediments were analysed using various analytical methods, such as X-Ray Fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF), particle size and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) for the solid-inorganic phase, Ion Chromatography (IC) and Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emissions Spectroscopy (ICP-OES) for the liquid phase (pore water), Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and organic loss on ignition for the organic phase, pH and Redox for the electrochemistry of the sediments and Scanning Electron Microscope with Energy Dispersive X-Ray analysis (SEM-EDX) for microscopy and imaging. The British Geological Survey (BGS) sequential extraction method was used to investigate the different phases in the sediments. pH remained near neutral for all three sites and Redox remained anoxic. Organic contents for all three sites were around 30% and contained most of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons considered hazardous. Pore water showed only high concentrations of sulphates but low concentrations of PHEs, suggesting PHEs were not mobile. Sequential extraction confirmed the other results showing that PHEs were mainly associated with stable phases, such as iron and manganese oxides or sulphides. The results have been taken into consideration to design a new remediation strategy to maximise efficiency of the zeolite
