  • There has been a recurring call for using visual representations in textbooks to improve the teaching and learning of proportional reasoning. However, the quantity as well as quality of visual representations used in textbooks is still very limited. In this article, we analyzed visual representations presented in a Grade 6 textbook from two perspectives of proportional reasoning, multiple-batches perspective and variable-parts perspective, and discussed the potential of the double number line and the double tape diagram to help develop the idea 'things covary while something stays the same', which is critical to reason proportionally. We also classified situations that require proportional reasoning into five categories and provided ways of using the double number line and the double tape diagram for each category.

  • We considered the authoritative representations of torpedo systems that was the engagement level model to develop system specifications and to analyze operational requirements on concept design phase. The Work Breakdown Structure(WBS) of models was defined about authoritative representations of the torpedo systems. The communication of information among each subsystems and input/output parameters were defined. In the heavy weight and light weight torpedo model, presetter, underwater maneuver, war head, sonar, guidance and control, propulsion subsystem modeling were developed for heavy-weight and the light-weight torpedo systems. The authoritative representations of torpedo systems have similar structures with those of the engineering level models and could be verified via engagement level simulations according to the V&V process in the future.

  • This study examines representations of children and youths in TV commercials both quantitatively (May 2019-April 2020) and qualitatively (thirteen relevant cases). The study's case analyses explore the representation of the 'sexual objectification' of girls, the 'sexual spectacle' of female adolescents, representations that reinforce stereotypes of femininity/masculinity, and the objectification of girls to elicit sympathy for the purposes of raising donations. This study reveals that TV commercials and existing advertisements adhere to representations of established gender roles. This dichotomous representation of gender is problematic since it functions as the starting point of various sexual crimes and gender inequality. For example, most of the victims of the sexual exploitation incident called 'Room Number, N', which shocked Korean society, were female adolescents. These adolescents were seen as men's sexual objects because of this kind of dichotomous thinking. TV commercials are part of the binary representation of deep-rooted stereotypes regarding femininity and masculinity. This study problematizes this representation in order to surpass its limitations. Moreover, an alternative mode of thinking is suggested through the theory of Deleuze and Guattari.

A Study on the Diversity of Lesson Flow and Visual Representations of Common Denominator Fraction Addition and Subtraction in Elementary Mathematics Textbooks (초등 수학 교과서의 동분모 분수 덧셈과 뺄셈 단원의 차시 흐름 및 시각적 표현 다양성에 대한 연구)

  • In elementary school mathematics, the addition and subtraction of fractions are difficult for students to understand but very important concepts. This study aims to examine the teaching methods and visual aids utilized in the context of common denominator fraction addition and subtraction. The analysis focuses on evaluating the lesson flow and the utilization of visual representations in one national textbook and ten certified textbooks aligned with the current 2015 revised curriculum. The results show that each textbook is composed of chapter sequences and topics that reflect the curriculum faithfully, with each textbook considering its own order and content. Additionally, each textbook uses a different variety and number of visual representations, presumably intended to aid in learning the operations of fractions through the consistency or diversity of the visual representations. Identifying the characteristics of each textbook can lead to more effective instruction in fraction operations.

  • This study examined the affective representation and response consistency among individuals using affective videos, a naturalistic stimulus inducing emotional experiences most similar to those in daily life. In this study, multidimensional scaling was conducted to investigate whether the various affective representations induced through video stimuli are located in the core affect dimensions. A cross-participant classification analysis was also performed to verify whether the video stimuli are well classified. Additionally, the newly developed intersubject correlation analysis was conducted to assess the consistency of affective representations across participant responses. Multidimensional scaling revealed that the video stimuli are represented well in the valence dimension, partially supporting Russell (1980)'s core affect theory. The classification results showed that affective conditions were successfully classified across participant responses. Moreover, the intersubject correlation analysis showed that the consistency of affective representations to video stimuli differed with respect to the condition. This study suggests that the affective representations and consistency of individual responses to affective videos varied across different affective conditions.

  • The relationship between acute kidney injury (AKI) prediction and nephrotoxic drugs, or drugs that adversely affect kidney function, is one that has yet to be explored in the critical care setting. One contributing factor to this gap in research is the limited investigation of drug modalities in the intensive care unit (ICU) context, due to the challenges of processing prescription data into the corresponding drug representations and a lack in the comprehensive understanding of these drug representations. This study addresses this gap by proposing a novel approach that leverages patient prescription data as a modality to improve existing models for AKI prediction. We base our research on Electronic Health Record (EHR) data, extracting the relevant patient prescription information and converting it into the selected drug representation for our research, the extended-connectivity fingerprint (ECFP). Furthermore, we adopt a unique multimodal approach, developing machine learning models and 1D Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) applied to clinical drug representations, establishing a procedure which has not been used by any previous studies predicting AKI. The findings showcase a notable improvement in AKI prediction through the integration of drug embeddings and other patient cohort features. By using drug features represented as ECFP molecular fingerprints along with common cohort features such as demographics and lab test values, we achieved a considerable improvement in model performance for the AKI prediction task over the baseline model which does not include the drug representations as features, indicating that our distinct approach enhances existing baseline techniques and highlights the relevance of drug data in predicting AKI in the ICU setting.

  • In this paper we extend the projective properties of representations of a quiver $Q={\bullet}{\rightarrow}{\bullet}$ as left R-modules to the projective properties of representations of quiver $Q={\bullet}{\rightarrow}{\bullet}$ as left $R[x]$-modules. We show that if P is a projective left R-module then $0{\rightarrow}P[x]$ is a projective representation of a quiver $Q={\bullet}{\rightarrow}{\bullet}$ as $R[x]$-modules. And we show $0{\rightarrow}L$ is a projective representation of $Q={\bullet}{\rightarrow}{\bullet}$ as R-module if and only if $0{\rightarrow}L[x]$ is a projective representation of a quiver $Q={\bullet}{\rightarrow}{\bullet}$ as $R[x]$-modules. Then we show if P is a projective left R-module then $R[x]\longrightarrow^{id}P[x]$ is a projective representation of a quiver $Q={\bullet}{\rightarrow}{\bullet}$ as $R[x]$-modules. We also show that if $L\longrightarrow^{id}L$ is a projective representation of $Q={\bullet}{\rightarrow}{\bullet}$ as R-module, then $L[x]\longrightarrow^{id}L[x]$ is a projective representation of a quiver $Q={\bullet}{\rightarrow}{\bullet}$ as $R[x]$-modules.

  • A retrieval technique was defined as a technique for comparing the document representations. So this study classified retrieval technique in terms of the charactristics of the retrieved set of documents and the representations that are used. The distinction is whether the set of retrieved documents contains only documents whose representations are an exact match with the query, or a partial match with query. For a partial match, the set of retrieved document will include also those that are an exact match with the query. Boolean-logic as one of the exact match retrieval techniques is in current in most of the large operational information retrieval systems despite of its problems and limitatlons. Partial match as an alternative technique has also various problems. Existing information retrieval systems are successful in aSSisting the user whose needs are well- defined (e.g. Boolean-logic), to retrieve relevant documents but it should be successful in providing retrieval assistance to the browser whose information requirements is ill-defined.
