Abstract:

The article draws attention to the problem of measuring the effect that programming solutions have on the programming productivity and performance, in educational programming and the correctness-saving program improvements. The results of some experiments concerning these questions are discussed. The hypothesis that  functional models can provide a metric scale capable of separating features of programming languages and systems from features of programs and programming solutions is proposed. The results of a preliminary demonstrative experiment in studying the dependence of the program productivity upon the opted compiler and, on the other hand, upon the representation of the programming solution in the opted programming languages are described. Analysis of these results leads to a method that can reveal such dependencies. The long experience in sifting educational and contest programs revealed some unnoticed aspects of this problem.

Abstract:

The article introduces the analysis of the concepts "information retrieval activity" and "information retrieval competencies", as well as defines the place of information retrieval activity in the educational activity of students of universities.

We conducted a questionnaire design of the first and second year students for studying their knowledge of the diversity of information retrieval systems and the ability to adequately choose information retrieval systems for thematic, targeted and factual information retrieval. The students were offered a list of 14 answers, including both traditional and electronic information systems.

The results of analysis show, that the students are familiar with a limited range of information retrieval systems, and most often use the Internet search engine for searching information. Most students ignore traditional bibliographic systems, as well as information systems, which require special knowledge and skills of using search strategies for use.

Obviously, it is necessary to carry out purposeful activity on formation of information retrieval competencies of pupils and students based on the special training courses.

Abstract:

In today's world, digital technologies are penetrating all aspects of human activity, including education and labor. Since 2019, when, in response to global challenges, the world's educational systems have actively started to shift to distance learning, there has been an urgent need to develop and implement reliable identification and authentication technologies. These technologies are necessary to ensure the authenticity of work and protection from falsification of academic achievements, especially in the context of higher education in accordance with the group of specialties and directions (USGS) 10.00.00 - Information Security, where laboratory and practical work play a key role in the educational process.

The problem lies in the need to optimize the flow of incoming data, which, first, can affect the retraining of the neural network core of the recognition system, and second, impose excessive requirements on the network's bandwidth. To solve this problem, efficient preprocessing of gesture data is required to simplify their trajectories while preserving the key features of the gestures.

This article proposes the use of the Douglas–Peucker algorithm for preliminary processing of mouse gesture trajectory data. This algorithm significantly reduces the number of points in the trajectories, simplifying them while preserving the main shape of the gestures. The data with simplified trajectories are then used to train neural networks.

The experimental part of the work showed that the application of the Douglas–Peucker algorithm allows for a 60% reduction in the number of points in the trajectories, leading to an increase in gesture recognition accuracy from 70% to 82%. Such data simplification contributes to speeding up the neural networks' training process and improving their operational efficiency.

The study confirmed the effectiveness of using the Douglas–Peucker algorithm for preliminary data processing in mouse gesture recognition tasks. The article suggests directions for further research, including the optimization of the algorithm's parameters for different types of gestures and exploring the possibility of combining it with other machine learning methods. The obtained results can be applied to developing more intuitive and adaptive user interfaces.

Abstract: The web space of the organization is the many web sites connected by hyperlinks. The main question considered in the article, is whether this web space self-organizing, i.e. the ordering of its elements occurs at the expense of their internal interaction without external influences, or external (so-called "administrative") the impact is so strong that their influence can be detected. The article proposes a common approach demonstrated by the example of the web space of St. Petersburg State University. On the question of whether significant administrative influence on the web space of the University, in this case on the basis of the analysis given a positive response

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the issue of the use of digital educational services in the process of teaching students of higher educational institutions. Based on the experience of using various teaching methods and digital resources in teaching students, new digital solutions are proposed that solve some of the didactic tasks and provide new opportunities for organizing the learning process. The main issue under discussion is the possibility of individualization and control of the learning process in the case of the use of teaching video materials by the teacher. By comparing the traditional face-to-face lecture and the training video, the positive and negative effects of each of the approaches to the delivery of lecture material are described. Based on the results of such a comparison, a video lecture model is proposed that includes interactive feedback elements.

Abstract:

The tool for building ratings of scientific journals is one of the popular services of bibliographic databases. The task of building a rating is usually divided into two main subtasks: determining the reference group of journals and calculating the rating indicator for journals of this reference group. Practice shows that for the correct comparison of journals, a necessary condition is to limit the reference group to exclusively journals of a certain subject. In the case of methodological errors made at the stage of selecting a reference group, the values of the journal index in the rating may differ greatly from the expected ones.

For example, in the ranking of journals in the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI) according to the two-year impact factor in the thematic area “Mathematics”, classical fundamental mathematical journals, contrary to expectations, do not reach the first positions of the rating. The first positions were taken by journals for which mathematics is not the dominant profile discipline. Analysis of statistical data on the subject of published articles and citations in journals that occupy leading positions in the RSCI rating shows that the multidisciplinary nature of these journals significantly influenced the rating indicators.

The noted misunderstanding leads to the idea that in this case, not all the articles of the journal should have been involved in the calculation of the rating, but only those related to this thematic area. At the same time, the existing scheme of thematic classification of directions also raises questions. The "bottom-up" classification, which is gaining popularity and works on a representative array of articles, seems to be more promising. Here thematic clusters are isolated on the basis of the concept of proximity of articles, interpreted as the proximity of their bibliographic links. And further, the thematic affiliation of the article is not assigned by the volitional decision of the author or the editorial board, but is strictly formally calculated on the basis of its bibliographic list.

Abstract:

This study focuses on the application of machine learning methods to improve the quality of test items. The research includes a review of the subject area and the implementation of two enhancement methods: similar question retrieval and distractor quality assessment. The first method involves testing five transformer-based models for generating text embeddings and six clustering algorithms. The second method uses the same transformer models in combination with three classification algorithms. Experimental results demonstrated the high effectiveness of the proposed approaches in solving both tasks.

Abstract: Этот доклад – попытка найти ответ на вопрос о том, каково адекватное место компьютера в музее вообще, и в музейной экспозиции, в частности. Исходной же посылкой в моих рассуждениях является тот очевидный факт, что уже сейчас практически все молодое поколение посетителей – это люди, для которых экран – один из основных источников поступления информации, а клавиатура – наиболее удобный и привычный способ ее генерации. С этим считаются все – библиотеки, развлекательные центры, даже театры, не говоря уже о вокзалах, аэропортах, гостиницах и магазинах, а также фискальных органах, банках и т.п. Поэтому преодоление отставания музеев в этой области – это серьезный фактор их выживания и сохранения своего места в обществе, возможности влиять на происходящие в нем процессы и формировать будущее культуры.

Abstract: This study discusses some of the shortcomings of Gaussian humanization and discusses how the articulation models developed by drummers can be emulated using a probabilistic model. An author's algorithm for “revitalizing” midi-parts of percussion instruments was developed. Various dependencies and regularities, which are manifested when playing drums, are programmed. The dependence of the notes parameters not only on the parameters of the previous notes, but also on the subsequent notes of the corresponding parts of the drum set was created. The dependence of the impact force on the position of the note in the measure is created. Thus, emphasizing notes in a strong lobe. Also, the dependence of the note's volume on the coincidence with the notes of other parts of the drum set was created. To increase the dynamism and liveliness of the party, the volume of the hat was increased before the impact on the small drum. A comparison was made of the amplitudes of the corresponding notes of the parts, as far as the party, animated using a certain method, is different from the one played by a professional drummer. When listening to tests, batches processed using a modified method objectively sound lively than using Gaussian and quantized batches.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the typology of the main variants of video lectures (https://vimeo.com/showcase/6184718), which differ in didactic value and laboriousness of creation. For each option of video lectures, the key conditions for effective formation and use are determined. Particular attention is paid to the optimization of hardware for the creation of various options for video lectures in full-time and distance learning.

As a basic option, a video recording of a PowerPoint presentation with speech and graphic comments on the slides is considered. The screen (electronic board) videorecording on the left with the lecturer in profile, named ad standard profile version, is recommended for use when there is a shortage of space in the classroom. In the presence of a video camera with optics that ensure the preservation of the detail of images of visual materials, the preferred option for video lecture is a standard frontal one, filmed from the far end of the audience. Didactically optimized editing of video lectures allows you to combine high-quality recording of visual materials of the basic version with mediocre video recordings of the teacher's actions.

Integrative versions of video lectures are created by overlaying the video recording of the teacher's actions over a specially designated invariant place in the design of the slides of the basic version of the video lecture. The options for adapting the design of PowerPoint presentations to form a basic and integrative version of video lectures are proposed. The highest ratio of "didactic quality / labor costs" is achieved when creating integrative video lectures directly in the process of face-to-face and distance teaching.

Abstract:

The conditions for creating optimizing parallelizing compilers for computing systems with distributed memory are described. Target computing systems are microcircuits of the “supercomputer on a chip” type. Both optimizing program transformations specific to systems with distributed memory and those transformations that are needed both for computing systems with distributed memory and for computing systems with shared memory are presented. The issues of minimizing interprocessor transfers when parallelizing a recursive function are discussed. The main approach to creating such compilers is block-affine data placement in distributed memory with minimization of inter-processor transfers. It is shown that parallelizing compilers for computing systems with distributed memory should be created on the basis of a high-level internal representation and a high-level output language.
