In this study, a developed V-CAM had been used for a polishing fundamental experiment of a free form surface. The relationship between NC resolution and form accuracy of polished surface are discussed.

Teacher opinions and discussions about Visual Culture Theory and Material Culture in art education are examined in this paper. Both approaches were compared and evaluated within their contents and fundamentals. Visual Culture Art Education (VCAE) in art education, specifically, has been criticized as having a Neo-Marxist or Cultural Marxist agenda stemming from Critical Theory, nonetheless, it is also viewed as being just another recent Postmodernist approach. Being a controversial theoretical account, VCAE seems widely unknown and not understood in its conceptual frame among art teachers in Turkey. Its name also may have caused confusion. In this study, art teacher opinions of VCAE content, principles, applications and practices were collected through a survey questionnaire; and examined. Participants were 71 art teachers. A purposeful, convenient, random sampling method was employed to represent a population of art teachers from various backgrounds, with various experience levels, with educational experience from various universities, working at various geographical regions and towns in Turkey. The study was designed and structured as descriptive survey research. Analyses revealed that art teachers usually are not aware of the typical discussions about VCAE. Having been criticized as an ideologically rooted theory, the applicability of VCAE in Turkey seems controversial in many aspects. Keywords: visual culture, Modernism, DBAE, VCAE, critical pedagogy, Postmodernism, neo-marxism

Seiring perkembangan seni rupa kontemporer, pada 1970an lahir pendekatan baru yang disebut budaya visual (visual culture). Pada awal 1980an wacana budaya visual mulai memasuki wilayah pendidikan seni rupa, disebut pendidikan seni rupa berbasis budaya visual (Visual Culture - Art Education/VCAE). Istilah VCAE sudah lazim disebutkan dalam medan perbincangan pendidikan seni rupa dunia, namun di Indonesia masih sangat jarang terdengar. Untuk itu dilakukan penelitian pendapat tentang VCAE dari guru seni rupa yang tergabung dalam Musyawarah Guru Mata Pelajaran (MGMP) Seni Budaya SMA DKI Jakarta. Tujuan penelitian untuk memetakan kebutuhan sebagai landasan dalam membangun konsepsi model pembelajaran VCAE SMA. Desain penelitian dengan pendekatan deskriptif, dan metode gabungan kuantitatif-kualitatif. Partisipan merupakan guru seni rupa perwakilan 5 wilayah DKI Jakarta, masing-masing dua guru, total partisipan 10 guru. Teknik perolehan data survei digunakan dalam metode kuantitatif, dan teknik pertanyaan terbuka untuk menjaring data kualitatif. Kedua jenis data dideskripsikan, dianalisis, dan ditafsirkan. Hasilnya secara umum guru Seni Budaya SMA mendukung penerapan materi seni budaya sebagai pengembangan pelajaran seni rupa.

Conclusion: Weconclude that early outcome of OPCAB total or multiple arterial coronary revascularizations, inexperienced hands, are as safe and effective as ONCAB.

The application of deep learning for taxonomic categorization of DNA sequences is investigated in this study. Two deep learning architectures, namely the Stacked Convolutional Autoencoder (SCAE) with Multilabel Extreme Learning Machine (MLELM) and the Variational Convolutional Autoencoder (VCAE) with MLELM, have been proposed. These designs provide precise feature maps for individual and inter-label interactions within DNA sequences, capturing their spatial and temporal properties. The collected features are subsequently fed into MLELM networks, which yield soft classification scores and hard labels. The proposed algorithms underwent thorough training and testing on unsupervised data, whereby one or more labels were concurrently taken into account. The introduction of the clade label resulted in improved accuracy for both models compared to the class or genus labels, probably owing to the occurrence of large clusters of similar nucleotides inside a DNA strand. In all circumstances, the VCAE-MLELM model consistently outperformed the SCAE-MLELM model. The best accuracy attained by the VCAE-MLELM model when the clade and family labels were combined was 94%. However, accuracy ratings for single-label categorization using either approach were less than 65%. The approach’s effectiveness is based on MLELM networks, which record connected patterns across classes for accurate label categorization. This study advances deep learning in biological taxonomy by emphasizing the significance of combining numerous labels for increased classification accuracy.

This grounded theory project researches and analyzes publications from 1990-2008 assessing the debate over aesthetics in/and VCAE in 21st century art education. Through a series of visual models, a working theory and its supporting evidence assess this contested subject. Within the context of Modern and Postmodern paradigm conflict, art educators’ debate over aesthetics in/and VCAE fundamentally deals with differing conceptions of identity and freedom. Although commonly sharing the goal of fostering the formation of student identity through the provision and exercise of freedom, art educators’ differing perspectives on identity and freedom result in differing prescriptions for 21st century art education. By presenting qualitative data analysis through grounded theory, I guide fellow art educators through this debate by providing snapshots of information as well as detailed portraits of the scholars and their multifarious rationales.

Lo scopo del nostro studio è stato quello di dimostrare e confermare l’utilità dell’ampio spettro di metodiche fornite dalla tecnologia ecografica tridimensionale e quadridimensionale, nel diagnosticare, monitorare, prevedere o studiare determinate patologie ostetriche. Il nostro studio ha coinvolto patologie perinatali che risultano essere ancora di problematica gestione. In particolare si è cercato di approfondire la diagnosi e la previsione delle patologie cromosomiche, della pre-eclampsia e della pre-eclampsia grave tale da richiedere l’espletamento del parto prima di 32 settimane di gestazione, di alcune malformazioni cardiache quali la Trasposizione completa e corretta dei Grossi Vasi, lo studio della funzionalità cardiaca in feti normali e con ritardo di crescita intrauterino. Per tutti gli esami effettuati è stato utilizzato un ecografo Voluson 730 (G. E. Healthcare). La tecnica ultrasonografica utilizzata è stata quella tradizionale bidimensionale con la misurazione di distanze (valvole cardiache, biometria fetale), con l’uso del Doppler colore e pulsato (visualizzazione di vasi sanguigni quali le arterie uterine e l’arteria ombelicale, dei flussi sanguigni intracardiaci, la visualizzazione dei diagrammi di flusso dei vasi uterini, la misurazione del PI, TVI, dei flussi trans-valvolari cardiaci). La tecnica tradizionale è stata integrata e confrontata con quella tridimensionale e quadridimensionale. Gli apparecchi ecografici tridimensionali acquisiscono un singolo volume di voxels mediante una “spazzolata” del fascio ultrasonoro attraverso l’area di interesse, e ciò permette l’approccio standard per lo studio tridimensionale delle strutture non-cardiovascolari. L’immagine così ottenuta è un’immagine statica. La tecnologia 4D aggiunge l’elemento movimento ed in particolare lo Spatio-Temporal Image Correlation (STIC) permette di ottenere una sequenza di un singolo ciclo cardiaco, come fosse un esame bidimensionale condotto dal vivo ed in tempo reale. La sovrapposizione del colore è invece particolarmente utile per verificare la normale emodinamica cardiaca o la presenza di eventuali anomalie. L’utilizzo del power Doppler tridimensionale ha permesso di studiare gli indici di vascolarizzazione placentare quali vascularization index (VI), flow index (FI) e vascularization flow index (VFI). Per studiare il volume di un tessuto, di un organo o di una cavità (nel caso specifico dell’intera placenta o delle cavità cardiache) è stata utilizzata la tecnica VOCAL (Virtual Organ Computer-Aided anaLysis), che permette di ottenere una sequenza di diverse sezioni dopo una rotazione di alcuni gradi rispetto alla precedente. In ogni piano il contorno è stato tracciato manualmente. Il computer ha poi eseguito la ricostruzione e calcolato il volume. Per studiare le scansioni utili a diagnosticare malformazioni cardiache quali la Trasposizione dei grossi vasi è stata utilizzata la metodica SonoVCAD (Sonographically based Volume Computer-AideD) che ricostruisce automaticamente le scansioni cardiache diagnostiche da un volume quadridimensionale del torace fetale ottenuto tramite STIC. Le tecniche descritte sono state utilizzate nella ricerca clinica, permettendo la stesura dei quattro studi analizzati di seguito.
The aim of this study was to demonstrate and confirm the utility of the wide spectrum of methods provided by the 3D and 4D ultrasound technology, in increasing the detection rate, monitoring, predicting and studying several obstetrical pathologies. Our study involved perinatal pathologies where management could be difficult. In particular we tried to go into diagnosis and prediction of chromosomal abnormalities, pre-eclampsia and severe pre-eclampsia requiring delivery prior to 32 weeks of gestation, some cardiac defect like complete and correct trasposition of the great arteries and the study of cardiac function in normal and growth restricted fetuses. Every scan was performed using a Voluson 730 ultrasound machine.(G. E. Healthcare). We used the traditional bidimensional ultrasound technology to measure distances (cardiac valves, fetal biometry), with color and pulsed Doppler use (blood vessels visualization like uterin arteries and umbilical artery, intracardiac blood flow, uterin arteries waveform visualization, measure of PI, TVI and cardiac trasvalvular flows). T raditional technique was integrated and comparated to the tridimensional and quadridimensional ones. Ultrasound 3D machines acquire a single volume of voxels by a sweep of ultrasound troughout the interest area, and this allows the 3D approach for the study of non-vascular structures. This provides a static image. The 4D technology adds movement and in particular the STIC software (Spatio-Temporal Image Correlation) allows to obtain a sequence of a single cardiac cicle, like a bidimensional examination in real time. Adding color is useful to verify the cardiac flows and the presence ofe several abnormalities. 4D Power Doppler use allowed study of placental vascularization indices like vascularization index (VI), flow index (FI) e vascularization flow index (VFI). The VOCAL software was used to study the volume of a tissue, organ or cavity (for exemple the whole placenta or cardiac cavities) producing a sequence of several sections of the heart, each obtained after a rotation from the previous one. In each plane the contour was traced manually, and at the end, the computer provided the reconstruction of the ventricle and calculated its volume. To detect cardiac malformations such Trasposition of the great arteries we used the SonoVCAD software (Sonographically based Volume Computer-Aided anaLysis) that automatically retrieves diagnostic cardiac planes from a 4-dimensional volume of the fetal chest obtained with spatiotemporal image correlation (STIC). We finnally concluded that the 3D/4D technique provides several benefits, because the study of the volumes is possible offline, after sacnning and can be repeated by different operators or several times by the same operator, giving the possibility of double-blinded studies. The automatic approach shows good retrieval of diagnostic cardiac planes in fetuses with TGA, which may improve diagnostic efficacy for this disease. There is a good agreement between SV measured either by 2D Doppler or by 4D STIC. The 4D STIC represents a simple and rapid technique to estimate fetal SV and promises to become the method of choice. The combination of abnormal uterine artery Doppler and low placental volume at 11–14 weeks achieves better results than does either test alone in the prediction of pre-eclampsia. We provide normal ranges of placental vascular indices between 11 + 0 and 13 + 6 weeks of gestation, which may be useful in future research on placental vascularity in certain at-risk pregnancies. Additional studies are needed to further validate these methods and it’s very important to remember that to obtain a quality volume we need to have a good bidimensional image.

This study examines the ways visual culture influences a child's drawings. The child is my 9-year-old daughter Nada, who was born in Saudi Arabia and is a fourth-grade student temporarily living in the United States. The study uses qualitative methods of data collection and exploratory case study research design as a methodology. The data were analyzed in light of Althusser's theory of ideology, specifically the notion of interpellation, along with visual culture theories. In addition, gender performativity theory, specifically the work of Judith Butler, was used to consider gender issues when these concerns emerged from the study. Nada has been exposed to two diverse cultures, those of Saudi Arabia and the United States. Both cultures may impact Nada's interpretations of her visual surroundings in various ways. Therefore, recognizing and examining how she interacts with US visual culture might help to uncover how such interactions constitute the basis of her perceptions, identities, and critical thinking. Drawing is not only a means of self-expression but also an important function of communication, identity formation, and represents possible ways of being in the world that are related to culture, community, and society as a whole. The study begins with the premise that there is a gap in understanding between the importance of visual culture and its insufficient application in Saudi Arabian art education. The implications of this study may be informative for Saudi Arabian educators, individuals, or groups interested in visual culture education and children's drawings; potentially, the Saudi Arabian educational system may also use this study to enhance its appreciation of the impact of visual culture on the creation of art and knowledge.

Shaw, often marginalized within Irish theatre history as the author ofJohn Bull’s Other Island, his one play set in Ireland which was rejected by the Abbey, is a much more persistent and influential presence than has generally been acknowledged.John Bullitself, a pungent commentary on the politics of its times, was in fact often performed in Ireland, including at the Abbey, and it was followed by the one-actO’Flaherty VCand ‘The Tragedy of an Elderly Gentleman’, one of the parts ofBack to Methuselah, both of them with an Irish setting. Shaw’s form of discussion play of ideas had a notable impact on later Irish writers, particularly Seán O’Casey, but also Denis Johnston and Teresa Deevy, giving him a key role in the development of modern Irish theatre.

The purpose of this article is to explore the teaching processes that use Quick Response (QR) codes and mobile devices to support blended learning at the National Institute of Telecommunications and ICT (INTTIC). The satisfactory results of our previous research show that the use of mobile technology could enhance accessibility and communication in a blended learning course. In Algeria, the mobile penetration rate stands at over 111% and 21% with 3G. Since most of our students have access to mobile technology, three in five were smartphones. Using this technology would encourage students to use their phones to send questions to their teachers, listen to a podcast and snip the quick response (QR) codes. This paper introduces the implementations of QR codes, vcard and QR voice as a new tool in the Moodle platform in our institute. The QR code contains the URL of the page of one particular Moodle course and quiz are added to the bottom of Moodle. The students' satisfaction had been acknowledged as an important factor in order to estimate the effectiveness of a blended learning course.

Anyone who uses e-mail should avoid the following mistakes: Giving confidential information in an unsecured e-mail. Your credit card number, for instance, can easily be sent throughout the world. It’s best to send credit-card information only through secure Web sites. See “How to Shop Safely Online” on p.143. Opening attachments from strangers. Never open an e-mail that has an attachment that is vague or says “Check this out!” A virus may spread by invading the contact list on a computer and sending itself to every e-mail address on the list. Opening unsolicited e-mail without first scanning for viruses. There are several free anti-virus programs available, and they should be updated regularly. Hitting “reply” to an unsolicited e-mail when asking to be taken off the sender’s list. By hitting “reply” you may be opening up your account to a deluge of spam. Hitting “reply all” when only the sender needs a response. Does everyone really need to know your reply? Think before you reply, especially if the e-mail was sent to a very large group. Forwarding hoaxes or jokes. Most people get too much e-mail, and they would prefer a real note from you, not a hoary joke or, worse, a scaremongering urban legend or false charity scam. If something sounds too good (or too shocking) to be true, it probably is. Check the web for information before you send something on; www.snopes.com is a great site for checking stories. Sending an e-mail without a signature. It’s helpful to include at least your name and e-mail address at the bottom of your message, especially if you are e-mailing someone for the first time. Don’t use a vCard (virtual business card). It may be mistaken for a virus. Sending an e-mail without spell-checking it. Most e-mail systems spell-check as you type or have a “spell-check before sending” setting. Sending large files or pictures. Don’t clog up your recipient’s mailbox—ask before sending big files. Sending e-mail without a “subject” line or with a vague subject line. Be specific.A subject that reads “Looking forward to dinner Saturday!” will get more attention than one that reads “hi” or “see you soon?” A blank subject line may get no attention at all.
