Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has been proved as the effective way to help enhance brand perception and increase an opportunity for companies to gain more revenue. This widely well-known practice has been used across a variety of product categories for long time. In this study, we investigate factors that influence people to engage CSR programs and create favorable attitudes toward brand. Based on our hypotheses, we propose that social influence, which can be any activity on Social Network Sites (SNSs) that are related to CSR programs, can create brand awareness, influences people to engage CSR campaign and create favorable attitudes toward brand. We conducted an online survey that collected 129 opinions from respondents in Thailand and other several countries in Asia. According to the result, social influence has an effect on favorable attitudes toward brand and can influence people to engage CSR programs. However, there is no significant relation between social influence and brand awareness. We also found that people who engaged CSR programs will have favorable attitudes toward brand. Moreover, brand awareness also has an effect on favorable attitudes toward brand.

In this paper, we present an approach towards autonomous grasping of objects according to their category and a given task. Recent advances in the field of object segmentation and categorization as well as task-based grasp inference have been leveraged by integrating them into one pipeline. This allows us to transfer task-specific grasp experience between objects of the same category. The effectiveness of the approach is demonstrated on the humanoid robot ARMAR-IIIa.

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is known to be the best non-invasive imaging modality in providing anatomical information as white-matter fiber bundles. However, the Gaussian noise introduced into the diffusion tensor images can bring serious impacts on tensor calculation and fiber tracking. To decrease the effects of the Gaussian noise, many denoising methods have been presented. In this paper, a shearlet based denosing strategy is introduced. To evaluate the efficiency of the proposed shearlet based denoising method in accounting for the Gaussian noise introduced into the images, the peak to peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), signal-to-mean squared error ratio (SMSE) and edge keeping index (Beta) metrics are adopted. The experiment results acquired from both the synthetic and real data indicate the good performance of our proposed filter.
