Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving Arabic Named Entity Recognition with a Modified Transformer EncoderHamid Sadeq Mahdi Alsultani, Ahmed H. AliwyThis article investigates the use of a transformer encoder for Arabic Named Entity Recognition (NER). The classic transformer that was originally proposed for machine translation adopts the absolute sinusoidal position embedding which is aware of distance but unfortunately is not aware of the directionality. However, in the NER task, both distance and orientation are crucial. Therefore, in this study, instead … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 19, Issue 5 · 10 Apr 2023 · 5,330 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract3D Printing of Porous Scaffolds for Medical ApplicationsAblah Aljohani, Salil DesaiCustom engineered scaffolds that mimic the physiology of native tissue is an emerging need for successful regenerative medicine. One of the key challenges in current manufacturing methods is the lack of controlled porosity throughout the scaffold structure. In this research, our group explores the fabrication of tissue engineering scaffolds using 3D printing technology. The fused deposition modeling method was utilized … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 19 Jun 2018 · 8,508 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalytical Fractured Reservoir Characterization by using Geological and Petrophysical LogsZohreh Movahed, Farzaneh AghajariDue to structural complexities in some wells, higher than the expected thickness of the Asmari formation is found. Fracture intensity and deep-rooted fractures broadly increase the risk of unpredictable water production. The well-test analysis is not sufficient in describing fracture properties. Unfortunately, the core condition is poor in the fractured zones and cannot be used to provide reliable information. So, … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 3 Dec 2022 · 9,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCavern Design Philosophy under High Stress Rock Condition a Case Study in Sri LankaBahram SalehiFor stabilizing of rock cavern stress condition and orientation, rock properties and cavern geometry have determinant effects. Numerical and analytical study and knowledge about self-support arching can assist to designer in appropriate understanding of cavern and ground interaction. The comparative studies by E. Hoek, showed that the mushroom shaped cavern was not an acceptable design because of high value stress … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 21 Mar 2017 · 7,978 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccept and Apply Diversity? An Exploratory Study of the Attitudes towards Diversity of Students of STEM SubjectsPetia Genkova, Henrik SchreiberGerman universities are obligated to guarantee a fair learning-environment for students with diverse features. They also must prepare students for a highly diverse working environment. This means to develop awareness for diversity and to train intercultural competence. The present study takes an exploratory look at the extent to which diversity awareness is established among Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2021 · 7,545 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship between Self-Regulated Learning and Academic ProcrastinationYap Li San, Samsilah Bte Roslan, Fatemeh SabouripourThis study aims to investigate the relationship between the components of motivation in self-regulated learning as well as the components of learning strategies in self-regulated learning and academic procrastination. Academic procrastination creates problems for undergraduates such as stress and poor academic performance which should be investigated as a serious issue in the educational context. The participants in this study included … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 2 May 2016 · 12,211 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Theoretical Analysis of Chinese IngratiationKwok Kuen TsangLiterature about ingratiation has mainly focused on non-Chinese societies with a Western viewpoint, which regards ingratiation as an attraction-seeking behavior. However, the viewpoint may not reflect accurately the meanings of ingratiation in Chinese societies, because ingratiation is a culture-specific behavior. Therefore, there is a limited understanding about the natures, motives, consequences and patterns of Chinese ingratiation. Since Chinese ingratiation is … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 2 Nov 2015 · 7,745 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPLEMENTATION OF ANFIS FOR GPS-AIDED INS UAV MOTION SENSING AT SHORT TERM GPS OUTAGEChot Hun Lim, Tien Sze Lim, Voon Chet KooThe recent improvement in Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) technology has enabled the evolvement of Inertial Navigation Unit (INU) to be built on top of a low cost, small size Integrated Circuit (IC) chip. Due to the nature of the MEMS INU, its outputs are normally corrupted by the resided stochastic noise. A common practice to regulate its measurements into usable motion … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 29 Dec 2014 · 8,130 accessesView PDFCite
