    DaFnE (German abbreviation: Deutsch als Fremdsprache nach Englisch – German after English) is an approach to teaching German as a third language to students who have already learned English. This methodology, which combines a first language (L1) with English as a second language (L2) and German as a third language (L3), is gaining popularity in Poland. This article contains both theoretical background and empirical research related to DaFnE. The first part introduces relevant definitions, aims of the DaFnE method and a short history of Tertiary Language Learning. The second part discusses teaching materials, which were created by the author of the article and used during empirical research in primary schools in the region of Greater Poland. Additionally, the paper includes results of surveys among the students and interviews among the German teachers

    Deep Anatomical Federated Network (Dafne): an open client/server framework for the continuous collaborative improvement of deep-learning-based medical image segmentation

    No full text
    Semantic segmentation is a crucial step to extract quantitative information from medical (and, specifically, radiological) images to aid the diagnostic process, clinical follow-up. and to generate biomarkers for clinical research. In recent years, machine learning algorithms have become the primary tool for this task. However, its real-world performance is heavily reliant on the comprehensiveness of training data. Dafne is the first decentralized, collaborative solution that implements continuously evolving deep learning models exploiting the collective knowledge of the users of the system. In the Dafne workflow, the result of each automated segmentation is refined by the user through an integrated interface, so that the new information is used to continuously expand the training pool via federated incremental learning. The models deployed through Dafne are able to improve their performance over time and to generalize to data types not seen in the training sets, thus becoming a viable and practical solution for real-life medical segmentation tasks.Comment: 10 pages (main body), 5 figures.

    ST AUGUSTINE ABOUT GOD AND COMPUTER

    No full text
    U sadržaju ovog prinosa autorica nadahnuta Augustinovim razumijevanjem i tumačenjem Boga u Ispovijestima namjerava istražiti, propitati i objasniti utemeljenost, održivost i smislenost teze jednog, imenom nepoznatog NASA-inog znanstvenika, koji objašnjava da je Augustinov koncept Trojstva moguće primijeniti na razumijevanje računala, shvaćenog kao ‘nešto’ što obavlja “mnogostruko djelovanje i zajednički rad”. U prvom dijelu prinosa autorica analizira i eksplicira Augustinovo učenje o Bogu prema Ispovijestima. Je li i na koji je način moguće objasniti i razumjeti princip funkcioniranja kompjutera shvaćenog kao “boga nove epohe” u optici Augustinove trinitarne teologije, vidjet ćemo u drugom dijelu prinosa, gdje će se eksplicirati o svojstvima i principu djelovanja kompjutera kao paradigme koja je nagovijestila i označila početak informatičke revolucije. Treći dio prinosa donosi zaključne teze koje se referiraju na mogućnost (ne)opravdanja teze da je koncept računala moguće opisati i izraziti uz pomoć Augustinova teološkog aksioma “mnogostrukost u jednome i jedno u mnogostrukosti”.Inspired by Augustine’s understanding and interpretation of God in his Confessions, the author wants to investigate, analyse and explain the foundation, sustainability and meaningfulness of a thesis, set out by a NASA scientist unknown by name, which explains that Augustine’s concept of Trinity can be applied to the understanding of the computer, taken as “something” that has a “multiple activity and joint work”. In the first part the author analyses and explains Augustine’s teaching on God according to the Confessions. In the second part of this contribution the author investigates whether it is possible and in which way it is possible to explain and understand the principle of functioning of the computer taken as a “god of new epoch” in the view of Augustine’s Trinitarian theology. This part also explains the features and principle of work of the computer as a paradigm that foreshadowed and marked the beginning of computer revolution. The third part presents the final theses referring to the possibility of (non) justification of the thesis that it is possible to describe and express the concept of the computer by means of Augustine’s theological axiom “multiplicity in one and one in multiplicity”

    Voluntarily imprisoned: Prototype the future city

    No full text
    The city is in a throes of a gigantic transformation process, due to modernisation, globalisation, technological innovation, urbanisation, explosive population growth and climate change (Brotchie, Newton, Hall, & Nijkamp, n.d.; Cohen, 2006). Within a time of change, whereas technology integrates progressively in our lifestyle, and where man is increasingly designing its environment according towards its own needs – the development and future expansion of the city is becoming a challenge. This lead to the main problem statement: What is the new kind of future habitat that can respond to the socio-technological dimensions, recognising the uncertainties of the future? In order to answer the main problem statement, the project will start with a literature study, followed by a case-study / prototype design. The literature study consists of two part: 1) Starting with the technological revolution, the first part will try to reveal the changing dynamics ofthe socio-techno system (within the global urban context) and which consequences these changing dynamics has on our lifestyle and on a broader scope, 2) Secondly, the aim of literature study is to expose the spatial implications of this socio-techno transformation on the urban structure of the global city. Firstly, we have seen that technology is a part of growth, acceleration and the expansion of the city. Technology has facilitated us with increased speed and a more inclusive network ever seen. Users of this network, supported by communication and information technologies, become singular nodes, isolated but connected through screens and the virtual world. For those connected to the network, the concept of time and place changes entirely. The connected urban population is not just bound together by the physical infrastructure of a city anymore, but starts to merge with it, annihilating time, and killing distance. In order to protect oneself, from the increase in physical and informational speed, man will increasingly has the need to withdrawal in capsules. Blind to the outside world, the capsular civilisation is one of dualization of segregation of exploitation and exclusion resulting in an implosion of the polis of the common (Barney, 2013; ManuelCastells, 2000; Cauter, 2004, 2012; Graham & Marvin, 2002). Secondly, we have tried to reveal what spatial (in the urban and architectural realm) consequences this capsular society brings forth. We have distinguished five mechanism of capsularity: decentralisation, fragmentation, isolation, privatisation and simulation. Together these characteristics will increasingly lead to the encapsulation of the urban and architectural realm. The future city will not just be a collectives, but rather a multiplicity of entities with their own sociality, character, and own rights (Manuel Castells, 2000; Cauter, 2004; Neil. A, 2018). The coming age can be defined as an age of disintegration, gated communities are the urban and architectural models that give shape to this order: an inside world of privatised publicness versus a chaotic, unsafe and uncontrollable outside world. We become voluntarily prisoners (Cauter, 2012; Davis, n.d.; Eckardt, 2017).Architecture, Urbanism and Building Sciences | Explorela

    O tym, że drzewa cyprysowe z syryjskiego gaju Dafne oraz egipskie drzewa persea nie powinny być ścinane i sprzedawane według komentarza Lucasa de Penna

      The subject of this paper is a commentary by the 14th-century jurist Lucas de Penna on one of the titles of Book 11 of the Justinian Code, dealing with the fact that cypress trees from the Syrian grove of Daphne or Egyptian persea trees should not be cut down and sold. The author of the commentary, in seeking to understand and clarify the content of the passages commented on, had to deal with terminology that was unclear in his time and with institutions that were not known at the time. The purpose of this article is to show how the author of a late medieval commentary on Byzantine law understood the content of this title and to determine whether his analysis sheds new light on our knowledge of tree stand protection in past centuries.    Przedmiotem artykułu jest komentarz XIV‑wiecznego jurysty Lucasa de Penna do jednego z tytułów księgi 11 Kodeksu Justyniana, traktującego o tym, że drzewa cyprysowe z syryjskiego gaju Dafne albo egipskie drzewa persea nie powinny być ścinane i sprzedawane. Autor komentarza, dążąc do zrozumienia i wyjaśnienia treści komentowanych fragmentów, musiał zmierzyć się z niejasną w jego czasach terminologią oraz z instytucjami, które nie były wówczas znane. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest ukazanie, jak autor późnośredniowiecznego komentarza do prawa bizantyjskiego rozumiał treść tego tytułu oraz ustalenie, czy jego analiza rzuca nowe światło na naszą wiedzę o ochronie drzewostanu w minionych wiekach. &nbsp

    Navigating Value Dynamics: A tool for mapping multi-stakeholder value ecosystems in the LIFE Project

    No full text
    The Energy transition is driving systemic changes in energy systems to reduce CO₂ emissions. The Local Inclusive Future Energy (LIFE) Project, a 'Living Lab' consortium, seeks to accelerate this transition in Amsterdam Zuidoost, by preventing energy congestion inclusively (LIFE project, 2022). The complexity of the challenge requires multi-sector collaboration to develop urban innovations (Energielab Zuidoost, 2023, Parsons DESIS Lab, 2022). Multi-actor collaboration is essential to develop and integrate new energy systems, evident in actors' interconnection in value networks and complex value propositions for integrating these product services (Weiller, C., & Neely, A., 2013). However, ecosystem collaboration comes with challenges, as each actor operates under different principles and seeks different benefits (Bos-de Vos, 2020). In this context, service designers face the challenge of developing methods and approaches to improve actors' capabilities in navigating systemic complexity, and translating abstract values into concrete actions (Sangiorgi, 2009, Vink, J., 2021, Bos-de Vos, 2020).To address these issues, this thesis examines the LIFE project, employing both theoretical research and empirical data. One significant theoretical gap is the lack of tools for value modeling from an ecosystem perspective. Within the LIFE project, complex conversations regarding values emerge due to differing perceptions, leading to value misalignment, siloed ways of working, and intricate decision-making processes. The prevailing view of value focuses on unidirectional exchanges, lacking an ecosystem or systemic perspective of the project. Thus, a need arises for a tool that provides an ecosystem view and allows multiple stakeholders to engage in explicit value conversations.To bridge this gap, this thesis introduces the 'value ecosystem canvas,' supporting collaborative networks in value ecosystem modeling. This 'project-centric' tool is designed for co-creation sessions, enabling actors to visually model value exchanges iteratively with the aid of a clear value guide (Bos-de Vos, 2020), exploring potential links between actors and concretizing value exchanges. Additionally, it facilitates an ecosystem understanding of how product-services add value to other actors and what value could be potentially exchanged (created and captured).In conclusion, the value ecosystem canvas aims to foster effective collaboration, align values, and promote a shared understanding of value exchanges within the LIFE Project consortium and other urban innovation initiatives. By enabling a systemic view, the tool empowers collaborative networks to navigate complexity and contribute meaningfully to the ongoing systemic transitions.LIFE projectStrategic Product Desig

    On Aristotle's Concept of Immovable First Mover: Comparative-Reflexive Approach to the Issue

    Nadahnuta izabranim mislima i komentarima a conto Aristotelova filozofskog projekta, posebice onog segmenta koji se tiče Filozofove koncepcije Boga eksplicirane u Lambdi (Metafizika), kao i njegova pristupa mišljenju te doprinos teoriji spoznaje i filozofiji općenito, autorica želi istražiti i propitati mogućnost dodirnih točaka filozofskoga govora o čovjeku kao biću koje predstavlja čudo spoznaje (N. Skledar); biću kojemu je žudnja za spoznajom inherentna (Aristotel) te, naposljetku, biću kojemu je spoznavanje prvi korak prema otkrivanju vlastitoga identiteta (Ch. Taylor). Drugim riječima, autorica želi vidjeti može li nam Aristotelova koncepcija nepokretnog pokretača poslužiti kao model za promišljanje osobnog identiteta, odnosno za utvrđivanje njegove moralne dimenzije. Temu naznačenu u glavnom naslovu pokušat ćemo elaborirati u tri dijela: prvi dio bavit će se općenito Aristotelom, njegovim učenjem (o svijetu i čovjeku) s naglaskom na shvaćanje i tumačenje Boga. Drugi dio problematizira temeljnu koncepciju knjige Lambda. U trećem dijelu elaborata autorica će se fokusirati na Taylorovu koncepciju osobnog identiteta, a kako je eksplicirana u njegovu najvažnijem filozofskom djelu Sources of the Self.Aristotle’s philosophical project, especially in the segments regarding his teaching about immovable firs mover explicated in his Metaphysics, the Book of Lambda, was always a great inspiration not just to his followers, commentators, redactors and translators, but also for those who cannot hide admiration to his way of thinking or the way of positioning philosophical problems that are in the focus of his philosophical investigations. Aristotle’s contribution to the theory of knowledge and to the philosophy in general was undoubtedly the main impulse that motivated author of this artice to investigate and to rethink are there in Aristotelian conception of God some traces that could serve as the methodological tool or base for investigating Taylor’s concept of personal identity grounded in Aristotle’s theology. In other words, the author has intention to show that the Aristotle’s idea of God as a certain way of thinking can be useful for understanding the moral base of personal identity. Man as moral agent is a being who can be understood as a miracle of knowledge itself (Skledar), as being with inherited crave of knowledge (Aristotle), nor as being who has deep sense of morality (Taylor). The theme that is announced in the main title of this elaboration the author will explicate as follows: the first part is focused on the Aristotelian philosophical, anthropological and ethical account. In the second part of this elaboration we will discuss in detail Aristotle’s idea of God according to Aristotle’s teaching explicated in the Book of Lambda in Metaphysics. The third part will be focused on Taylor’s conception of personal identity explicated widely in his the most popular philosophical work Sources of the Self, regarding some important information about Taylor’s philosophical orientation and his scientific, academic and political background that has formed his philosophical thinking
