F. NIETZSCHE’S POŽIŪRIS Į TIESĄ: MIRTINAS ĮKANDIMAS? by Aivaras Stepukonis

“…In Nietzsche’s thought, there may be observed a threefold turning away from the traditionally affirmative conception of truth: (1) the reduction of thinking and knowing to the physiological processes of the body and its changing corporeal states; (2) the exposure of many time-honored truths as mere superstitions expedient to factual human communities in dealing with reality in a practical, yet oversimplified and distorted manner; (3) the devaluation and/or disvaluation of truth as something useless or even detrimental to life. …”

EXTRAMURAL EDUCATION: A HISTORICAL PATH TO MOOC by M. A. Babaeva, A. F. Smyk

“…The authors propose to link the present and the near future of distance education in Russia with the phenomenon of MOOC since this format covers a large array of those wishing to get higher education and to improve their educational activities, and provides high-grade education in a cost-effective manner both for University and for a student. In conclusion the authors analyze the experience and prospects of using MOOC in Russian and foreign universities, discuss the features of the MOOC available at the Russian National platform of open education (NPOE) and their role in the educational process of the Russian universities (including distance learning).…”

Deepfake detection method based on patch-wise lighting inconsistency by Wenxuan WU, Wenbo ZHOU, Weiming ZHANG, Nenghai YU

“…The rapid development and widespread dissemination of deepfake techniques has caused increased concern.The malicious application of deepfake techniques also poses a potential threat to the society.Therefore, how to detect deepfake content has become a popular research topic.Most of the previous deepfake detection algorithms focused on capturing subtle forgery traces at pixel level and have achieved some results.However, most of the deepfake algorithms ignore the lighting information before and after generation, resulting in some lighting inconsistency between the original face and the forged face, which provided the possibility of using lighting inconsistency to detect deepfake.A corresponding algorithm was designed from two perspectives: introducing lighting inconsistency information and designing a network structure module for a specific task.For the introduction of lighting task, a new network structure was derived by designing the corresponding channel fusion method to provide more lighting inconsistency information to the network feature extraction layer.In order to ensure the portability of the network structure, the process of feature channel fusion was placed before the network extraction information, so that the proposed method can be fully planted to common deepfake detection networks.For the design of the network structure, a deepfake detection method was proposed for lighting inconsistency based on patch-similarity from two perspectives: network structure and loss function design.For the network structure, based on the characteristic of inconsistency between the forged image tampering region and the background region, the extracted features were chunked in the network feature layer and the feature layer similarity matrix was obtained by comparing the patch-wise cosine similarity to make the network focus more on the lighting inconsistency.On this basis, based on the feature layer similarity matching scheme, an independent ground truth and loss function was designed for this task in a targeted manner by comparing the input image with the untampered image of this image for patch-wise authenticity.It is demonstrated experimentally that the accuracy of the proposed method is significantly improved for deepfake detection compared with the baseline method.…”
