摘要： Transfer learning has been widely used in different scenarios, especially in those lacking enough labeled data. However, most of the existing transfer learning methods are based on the assumption that the source and target domains should share the label space entirely or partially, which greatly limits their application scopes. In this article, a Selective Random Walk (SRW) method for transfer learning in heterogeneous label spaces is proposed to make full use of unlabeled auxiliary data, which acts as a bridge for knowledge transfer from the source domain to the target domain. The proposed SRW method can explicitly identify transfer sequences between source and target instances via auxiliary instances based on random walk techniques. Since not all of the transfer sequences generated by random walk are credible for the target task, the SRW method can learn to weight transfer sequences adaptively. Based on the weights of the transfer sequences, the SRW method leverages knowledge by forcing adjacent data points in the transfer sequence to be similar and making the target data point in the sequence represented by other data points in the same sequence. Experiments show that the SRW method outperforms state-of-the-art models in plenty of transfer learning tasks with heterogeneous label spaces constructed within and across several benchmark datasets.

摘要： This paper attempts to establish that capital punishment is not rational and cannot be rationalized without suicidally destroying the very ground on which lawful and rational punishment bases itself. It argues that in capital punishment, just as in any lawful punishment, the criminal is both held (humanly) rational and therefore culpable. But, unlike other forms of punishment, in capital punishment, the condemned is at the same time, held as irrational and irredeemable, beyond reform, and therein outside the ambit of rationality and humanity. In this sense a fundamental aporia is reached in rationalizing capital punishment because of the contradiction between the basis of punishment (the human as rational) and its operational logic (the condemned person as beyond reform therein irrational). Expressed another way, the judge proclaims a form of infallibility in their reasoning where the incorrigibility of the judgment is horrifically demonstrated and ironically reflected (and projected) in the incorrigibility of the condemned. This broad argument is pursued in two parts;one part interprets canonical texts such as Hobbes, Hegel and Foucault, while the second part interprets the Supreme Court of India's jurisprudence around the death penalty. While these are very different discourses it will be shown that they share much common ground in their expressing-and negotiating-the fundamental problem as described above.

摘要： A career is a crucial aspect for any person to fulfill their desires through hard work. During their studies, students cannot find the best career suggestions unless they receive meaningful guidance tailored to their skills. Therefore, we developed an AI-assisted model for early prediction to provide better career suggestions. Although the task is difficult, proper guidance can make it easier. Effective career guidance requires understanding a student’s academic skills, interests, and skill-related activities. In this research, we collected essential information from Computer Science (CS) and Software Engineering (SWE) students to train a machine learning (ML) model that predicts career paths based on students’ career-related information. To adequately train the models, we applied Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques and completed dataset pre-processing. For comparative analysis, we utilized multiple classification ML algorithms and deep learning (DL) algorithms. This study contributes valuable insights to educational advising by providing specific career suggestions based on the unique features of CS and SWE students. Additionally, the research helps individual CS and SWE students find suitable jobs that match their skills, interests, and skill-related activities. © 2024, CC BY-SA.

摘要： Contribution: The combination of ChatGPT with traditional learning resources is very effective in computer science education. High-performing students are the ones who are using ChatGPT the most. So, a new digital trench could be rising between these students and those with lower degree of fundamentals and worse prompting skills, who may not take advantage of all the ChatGPT possibilities. Background: The irruption of GenAI such as ChatGPT has changed the educational landscape. Therefore, methodological guidelines and more empirical experiences in computer science education are needed to better understand these tools and know how to use them to their fullest potential. Research Questions: This article addresses three questions. The first two explore the degree of use and perceived usefulness of ChatGPT among computer science students to learn database administration, where as the third one explore how the utilization of ChatGPT can impact academic performance. Methodology: This contribution presents an exploratory and correlational study conducted with 37 students who used ChatGPT as a support tool to learn database administration. The student's grades and a comprehensive questionnaire were employed as research instruments. Findings: The obtained results indicate that traditional learning resources, such as teacher's explanations and student's reports, were widely used and correlated positively with student's grade. The usage and perceived utility of ChatGPT were moderate, but positive correlations between student's grade and ChatGPT usage were found. Indeed, a significantly higher use of this tool was identified among the group of outstanding students. © 2024, CC BY-NC-ND.

关键词： Virtual reality  

摘要： This paper represents a pilot study examining learners who are new to computer science (CS). Subjects are taught to program in one of two virtual reality (VR) applications developed by the researcher that use interactable objects representing programming concepts. The different versions are the basis for two experimental groups. One version of the app uses textual code for the interactable programming objects and the other version uses everyday objects as visual metaphors for the CS concepts the programming objects represent. For the two experimental groups, the study compares the results of self-efficacy surveys and CS knowledge tests taken before and after the VR activity intervention. An attitudinal survey taken after the intervention examines learners' sense of productivity and engagement with the VR activity. While further iterations of the study with a larger sample size would be needed to confirm any results, preliminary findings from the pilot study suggest that both methods of teaching basic programming concepts in VR can lead to increased levels of self-efficacy and knowledge regarding CS, and can contribute toward productive mental states. © 2024, CC BY.
