An Integrated STT-Based Multimodal Pre-Screening System for Korean Oral Presentations with an Analytics-Fitness Benchmark of Five Speech-to-Text Engines

An integrated web-based pre-screening system for Korean oral presentations that combines automatic speech recognition, prosodic and disfluency analytics, presentation–material matching, and large language model (LLM)-based qualitative evaluation into a single automated pipeline is presented.

PENGEMBANGAN E-MODUL BERBASIS PENDEKATAN SAINTIFIK MATERI INDONESIAKU KAYA BUDAYA KELAS IV SDN 17 MUARA PADANG

The limited availability of interactive digital learning materials in Science and Social Studies (IPAS) often causes student disengagement and difficulties in comprehending Indonesian cultural diversity, necessitating the development of structured and innovative instructional media. This research and development study...

Small Language Models for Developing Agentic AI in Healthcare: A Comprehensive Systematic Review and Critical Analysis

Educational neuromyths in higher education: beliefs about the brain and learning among university faculty members

Educational neuromyths are plausible but unsupported generalizations about the brain that can shape instructional decisions. This cross-sectional study examined their endorsement among 269 participating university faculty members in Ecuador. Recruitment followed a non-probability procedure that was not documented in th...

Exploring Wav2Vec2 XLSR-53 and Whisper-small for Telugu language speech-to-text: a fine-tuning approach

Online voice-based applications and speech communication have grown as a result of the revolutionary rise of smart gadgets and social media. The rapid advancement of deep learning (DL) has transformed the field of audio processing, enabling smooth human-computer interaction. DL approaches have been used to develop spee...

Augmented Screens, Not Augmented Reality: Why Most Smart Glasses Displays Fail the Spatial Computing Test

This paper applies the categorical test for genuine spatial computing to consumer smart glasses and argues that most current display-equipped models are augmented screens, showing text and icons fixed to the wearer's head rather than content positioned in the three-dimensional space around them. The paper separates two...

Asia-Pacific

This chapter analyzes how industrial structures, cultural formations and governance regimes shape AI deployment across Asia-Pacific screen industries. It argues that Korea and Japan have built export-oriented, IP-centric ecosystems where AI extends K-pop, webtoon and anime franchises while preserving creator visibility...

Bencmarking Generative AI for Debugging Support in Program Education

Abstract—Programming activities, such as automatic debugging and program repair, are increasingly being supported by Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI). However, a rigorous empirical evaluation of the efficacy of various large language models (LLMs) across several debugging phases is necessary. Using a benchmar...

Strength Is a Function of Volume, Not a Constant of the Material ── Multiply the Volume by 1000 and a Material of Scatter m=2 Falls to 0.0316 of Its Strength ── The Volume Factor That Halves the Strength Is Exactly 2^m: 4 at m=2 and 1048576 at m=20 ── [Paper 344]

The strength of a material appears in handbooks as one number. This paper asks what number that is──the answer is a number that means nothing unless the specimen volume is written beside it. No new mathematical theorem and no new law is claimed. Scope of this paper (scope note): No new mathematical theorem and no new l...

That the Condition Number Squares Is an Identity, Not an Approximation ── Half the Significant Digits Are Gone the Moment A^->p A Is Formed ── For the 8x8 Hilbert Matrix the Digits Remaining Are -4.4124, Which Is to Say None ── [Paper 330]

A least-squares problem is often rewritten as A^->p A x=A^->p b before being solved. This paper asks what that rewriting costs──the answer is exactly half the significant digits, and they are lost as an identity rather than as an approximation. No new mathematical theorem and no new law is claimed. Scope of this paper...

Cognitive Shell F: Fiber Bundle Theory of the Perception-Symbol Interface — Geometric Mapping from Continuous Manifolds to Discrete Representations

Cognitive systems face the interface problem between continuous perceptualinputs and discrete symbolic representations. This paper models the perceptionsymbol interface as a fiber bundle structure, with the perceptual manifold as thebase space and the candidate symbol distribution simplex as the fiber, and specifiesthe...

Omeostasi entropica: Estensione euristica ai sistemi sociali. Una proposta termodinamica per la definizione di salute e malattia in medicina dei sistemi

Abstract (IT) Il modello dell'Omeostasi Entropica, originariamente formulato per descrivere la salute e la malattia dell'individuo in chiave termodinamica, viene qui esteso ai sistemi sociali. Ogni sistema umano – dalla famiglia alla nazione, fino all'intera biosfera – è uno Stato Stazionario di Non-Equilibrio (NESS) c...
