Wie se grond koop Boas (Rut 4:9)? by S. L. Stassen

“…In this article the following possibilitiesare investigated: Either the writer of the Ruth narrative was so far removed from the time of Ruth that he did not know the customs and laws in the time of the judges, or different laws could apply to different periods in the time of the judges or to different communities in the time of the judges, or the verbs “to sell” in 4:3 and “to buy” in 4:5 and verse 9 should be understood in a different manner than convention permits us to do. …”

An LSTM auto-encoder based anomaly detection for industrial system by Xiaojun SHEN, Yanan GE, Zhihao SHEN, Yangdan NI, Mingqi LV, Zhengqiu WENG

“…In the context of the industrial internet,automatic and effective anomaly detection methods are of great significance to the safe and stable production of industrial systems.Traditional anomaly detection methods have the disadvantages of requiring a large number of labeled samples,and not adapting to high-dimensional time series data.Aiming at these limitations,an industrial system anomaly detection method based on LSTM (long short-term memory)auto-encoder was proposed.Firstly,to address the limitation of relying on labeled samples,an encoder used to learn the features and patterns of a large number of normal samples in an unsupervised manner.Then,anomaly detection was performed via reconstructing samples and calculating the reconstruction error.Secondly,to adapt to high-dimensional time series data,a BiLSTM (bidirectional LSTM) was used as an encoder,and then the potential characteristics of multi-dimensional time series data were mined.Experiments based on a real paper industry data set which demonstrate this method has improved the existing unsupervised anomaly detection methods in various indicators,and the overall accuracy of the detection has reached 93.4%.…”

Casting the George Floyd story in a broader context by Gerson Uaripi Tjihenuna

“…The Black race has gone through many dehumanising experiences, including the Trans-Atlantic slave trade, colonialism, and all manner of discrimination. This, in turn, has led to an inferiority complex because, for the most part, we have been defined by others – and not in the most positive of terms to say the least. …”

Research on optimal channel access method for distributed wireless network based on reliable multicast communication by Yizhu WANG, Zhou ZHANG, Piming MA, Baoquan REN

“…To address the low spectrum utilization issue of the distributed network due to multi-user collision and channel time-varying nature, the distributed channel access problem for multicast communication was investigated.Based on the optimal stopping theory, a statistical model of distributed channel access under wireless multicasts was established, and an optimal distributed wireless channel access method under reliable multicast communication was proposed.Each source competes for the channel in a distributed manner, the winner source determines whether to access the shared channel by comparing the reliable multicast access rate with a pure threshold to complete the reliable multicast communication from the winner source to all the sinks.Theoretic optimality of the method was proved rigorously.A corresponding low-complexity algorithm was designed, which has a pure threshold structure and good engineering practicability.Numerical results show that the proposed channel access method can effectively improve the average throughput of the system.…”

Strategic Uncertainty in Markets for Nonrenewable Resources: A Level-k Approach by Ingmar Vierhaus, Roel van Veldhuizen, Armin Fügenschuh

“…This study instead uses a level-k approach to examine cases where the focal agent is uncertain about the strategy of his opponent or predicts that the opponent will act in a nonsophisticated manner. Level-0 players are randomized uniformly across all possible actions, and level-k players best respond to the action of player k-1. …”

Sustainability imaginaries by design by Roy Bendor

“…Digital technology, in other words, not only has material consequences but mediates the meaning of sustainability and takes part in the creation and dissemination of sustainability imaginaries: collectively held beliefs about the world and how to act on it in a sustainable manner. On this background, I argue that we are witnessing the emergence of a new sustainability imaginary that stands on three pillars: ontological entanglements, premised in the observation that everything is connected and could only be fully understood through those connections; inclusive epistemologies, rejecting the reductivism of Western rationalism in favor of “othered,” more situated forms of knowledge; and a politics of mutuality and care that mobilizes generosity and reciprocity as the basis of social life. …”
