Autonomous driving technology, as a mainstream trend in today’s technological development, holds significant commercial value. Semantic segmentation, a core technology in this field, faces challenges with current mainstream models due to their complex structures, large numbers of parameters, and the need for high-performance hardware. these issues hinder their application in mobile devices. therefore, this paper proposes a road scene semantic segmentation algorithm based on dynamic asymmetric convolution and capsule networks, named Asymmetric Capsule Convolutional Networks (ACCN). Specifically, the algorithm uses dynamic asymmetric convolution to construct a baseline network that combines dynamic convolution and capsule dynamic routing algorithms to enhance the model’s representational capabilities. Additionally, a dispersed attention module is built to strengthen the dependency between features to achieve more adaptable network weights. Experiments demonstrate that ACCN achieves a good balance between segmentation accuracy and detection speed. On the CamVid and Cityscapes test datasets, the proposed method in this paper achieved an average Intersection over Union (mIoU) of $\mathbf{8 0. 8\%}$ at 55.2 fps, showcasing better trade-offs in segmentation accuracy and efficiency. the experimental results indicate the effectiveness of our method.
Integrating commercial software packages into undergraduate engineering courses is seen as a beneficial pedagogical approach for students in two ways. First, it facilitates an active learning environment;second, it gi...

Autoencoder-based methods have achieved significant performance on item recommendation. However, they may not perform well on tail items due to the ignorance of the items’ popularity bias. As a response, in this paper, we focus on tail items and propose a novel adversarial learning method for tail recommendation (ALTRec). In our ALTRec, the generator (i.e., AutoRec) not only reconstructs the input well, but also minimizes the (any two-user) similarity difference between the input stage and the output stage to keep users’ interaction relationships unchanged. And the discriminator maps the inputs and outputs of the generator to a same semantic space for scoring the similarity and maximizes the similarity difference as the target, and will identify some unsatisfactory predictions, especially on tail items. In order to preserve the similarity, the generator will pay more attention to the tail items compared withthe previous autoencoder-based methods. An ablation study validates the effectiveness of preserving the two-user similarity, as well as the adversarial learning strategy in our ALTRec. Extensive experiments on three real-world datasets show that our ALTRec significantly boosts the performance on tail items compared with several state-of-the-art methods.
Network embedding represents the graph in low dimensions, improving the processing of big scale tasks. As node2vec can only be modeled as a tensor, and NetMF cannot be generalized to a biased form directly. In this pa...

CONTEXT engineering education is an interdisciplinary research field where scholars are commonly embedded within the context they study. engineering Education Scholars (EES), individuals who define themselves by having expertise associated with bothengineering education research and practice, inhabit an array of academic positions, depending on their priorities, interests, and desired impact. these positions include, but are not limited to, traditional tenure-track faculty positions, professional teaching or research positions, and positions within teaching and learning centers or other centers. EES also work in diverse institutional contexts, including engineering disciplinary departments, first-year programs, and engineering education departments, which further vary their roles. PURPOSE OR GOAL the purpose of this preliminary research study is to better understand the roles and responsibilities of early-career EES. this knowledge will enable PhD programs to better prepare engineering education graduates to more intentionally seek positions, which is especially important given the growing number of engineering education PhD programs. We address our purpose by exploring the following research question: How can we describe the diversity of academic or faculty roles early-career EES undertake? APPROACH OR MEthODOLOGY/MEthODS We implemented an explanatory sequential mixed-methods study starting with a survey (n=59) to better understand the strategic actions of United States-based early-career EES. We used a clustering technique to identify clusters of participants based on these actions (e.g., teaching focused priorities, research goals). We subsequently recruited 14 survey participants, representing each of the main clusters, to participate in semi-structured interviews. through the interviews, we sought to gain a more nuanced understanding of each participant's actions in the contexts of their roles and responsibilities. We analyzed each interview transcript to deve
