L’Altérité, une notion vraiment sans histoire ? Eclairage philosophique sur une notion devenue incontournable en éducation by Muriel Briançon, Jeanne Mallet, Chantal Eymard

“…Alterity could consequently be understood as a substitute or overriding notion which identity has been forgotten. Because education researchers have everything to gain from recognizing its historical and philosophical roots, we propose a relevant and precise review of the notion: its three dimensions, its transgressive and emancipatory features and its capacity for teaching.…”

Knowledge communication model of social network with user cooperation and leadership encouragement by Qiuyang GU, Chunhua JU, Gongxing WU

“…In recent years,social networks have become a common medium for users to share knowledge.The knowledge communication in the social network environment was modeled and researched,with a hope to provide reference for relevant departments to effectively implement supervision and improve users’ knowledge exchange efficiency.Based on the classic SIS and SIR models,factors such as user cooperation and leadership encouragement for optimization were integrated,and the replication of dynamic equations was combined to construct and analyze two social network user knowledge communication models (SISL /SIRL).Finally,the data and model examples were given.The results show that the speed of knowledge communication is faster in social networks with leaders.In the process of social network knowledge communication,the number of vulnerable users decreases while that of the immune users increases,and the number of infected users fluctuates within a small range.Compared with the classic model and the real social network,the knowledge communication model constructed has a stronger fit.…”

Neural network decoding of the block Markov superposition transmission by Qianfan WANG, Sheng BI, Zengzhe CHEN, Li CHEN, Xiao MA

“…A neural network (NN)-based decoding algorithm of block Markov superposition transmission (BMST) was researched.The decoders of the basic code with different network structures and representations of training data were implemented using NN.Integrating the NN-based decoder of the basic code in an iterative manner,a sliding window decoding algorithm was presented.To analyze the bit error rate (BER) performance,the genie-aided (GA) lower bounds were presented.The NN-based decoding algorithm of the BMST provides a possible way to apply NN to decode long codes.That means the part of the conventional decoder could be replaced by the NN.Numerical results show that the NN-based decoder of basic code can achieve the BER performance of the maximum likelihood (ML) decoder.For the BMST codes,BER performance of the NN-based decoding algorithm matches well with the GA lower bound and exhibits an extra coding gain.…”
