Engineering Pedagogy in Vocational Education: Methodological Aspect by P. F. Kubrushko, D. O. Eprikyan

“…The authors substantiate the system approach in the study of engineering pedagogy – within the framework of the full-component system of vocational pedagogical education, which allows identifying implicit and apical components in the content of engineering pedagogy, as well as its determinants of invariance. The paper shows the changes in the structure of vocational education denoting trends in the development of engineering pedagogy, its place and role in the system of vocational education. …”

Efficient Detection of Occlusion prior to Robust Face Recognition by Rui Min, Abdenour Hadid, Jean-Luc Dugelay

“…In this paper, we propose an efficient approach which consists of first analysing the presence of potential occlusion on a face and then conducting face recognition on the nonoccluded facial regions based on selective local Gabor binary patterns. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art works including KLD-LGBPHS, S-LNMF, OA-LBP, and RSC. …”

Statistical Behavior of Lepton Pair Spectrum in the Drell-Yan Process and Signal from Quark-Gluon Plasma in High-Energy Collisions by Xu-Hong Zhang, Fu-Hu Liu

“…Consecutively, we obtained the variation law of related parameters as a function of s and invariant mass Q. In the fit procedure, a given Lévy-Tsallis (or Hagedorn) function can be regarded as the probability density function of transverse momenta contributed by a single quark (q) or anti-quark (q¯). …”

A note on dynamics of an age-of-infection cholera model by Jinliang Wang, Ran Zhang, Toshikazu Kuniya

“…However, for the proof of the global stability of endemic equilibrium, we have to show first the relative compactness of the orbit generated by model in order to make use of the invariance principle. Furthermore, uniform persistence of system must be shown since the Lyapunov functional is possible to be infinite if$i(a, t)/i^* (a) =0$ on some age interval.In this note, we give a supplement to above paper with necessary mathematical arguments.…”
