In this demonstration, we present Country Guesser, a live system that guesses the country that a photo is taken in. In particular, given a Google Street View image, our federated ranking model uses a combination of computer vision, machine learning and text retrieval methods to compute a ranking of likely countries of the location shown in a given image from Street View. Interestingly, using text-based features to probe large pre-trained language models can assist to provide cross-modal supervision. We are not aware of previous country guessing systems informed by visual and textual features.

Usanovich and his all-In-one acid-base concept

Flechsig, Gerd-Uwe (2023)

Centenary Workshop on the Bifurcation of Acidity – Protonism vs. Electronism.


 

This contribution considers the little-known universal acid-base concept of Usanovich. It is quite interesting and useful to see how one can get from the proton-based and quantitative Brönsted-Lowry theory and the electron-based Lewis approach to a comprehensive and unified acid-base concept that includes exchange of all kinds of ions and even electrons. When the consideration of electron exchange touches even redox reactions, however, the Usanovich concept appears to most chemists as too far of a stretch. Publishing the original idea in a Soviet journal in Russian language did not help either in promoting it. Later articles were published in German, and even some English chemistry text books considered the contribution of Usanovich. These chapters, however, would disappear in later editions, and so, what remains today is the fascinating history of acid base concepts that can teach us on how competing ideas contribute to the progress of science in chemistry.

Improving Learning Motivation for Out-of-Favour Subjects

Many curricula encompass subjects that are deemed less interesting or not important by a large share of students since they cannot perceive their true significance. It is an open question how students can be compelled to get involved with these subjects after all. This paper presents a novel concept how this can be accomplished. In particular, the paper argues that four important requirements must be met, namely that learning can also be accomplished in a less formal environment than regular lectures, learning may happen independent of physical presence at the university and whenever students see themselves fit, learning is based on small units, and students enjoy getting involved in the matter. As a proof-of-concept, this approach has been used in programming education for students of electrical engineering, based on sending short summaries via WhatsApp and adding playful elements. such as quizzes. An evaluation of the proof-of-concept over two terms provides indication of the viabi lity and usefulness of the approach, but also highlights several opportunities for extensions and refinements.

This paper investigates the systematic and complete usage of k-opt permutations with
k = 2 . . . 6 in application to local optimization of symmetric two-dimensional instances up to
107 points. The proposed method utilizes several techniques for accelerating the processing, such that
good tours can be achieved in limited time: candidates selection based on Delaunay triangulation,
precomputation of a sparse distance matrix, two-level data structure, and parallel processing based
on multithreading. The proposed approach finds good tours (excess of 0.72–8.68% over best-known
tour) in a single run within 30 min for instances with more than 105 points and specifically 3.37% for
the largest examined tour containing 107 points. The new method proves to be competitive with a
state-of-the-art approach based on the Lin–Kernigham–Helsgaun method (LKH) when applied to
clustered instances.
