Flipped Classroom as a pedagogical framework has gained popularity at secondary and tertiary levels of mathematics education, but there is a lack of research based on a solid theoretical foundation. This article considers the flipped mathematics classroom from the perspective of affordances and cultural–historical activity theory. The empirical background is based on semi-structured interview data ...

This paper examines the current state-of-the-art in object tracking and detection in the context of baggage handling systems using a variety of technologies, with special interest in image classification. Data collection at Tromsø Airport using simple and inexpensive equipment in order to capture images of different types of luggage will be described. Furthermore, a selection of three relevant ...

Simulation of Soil-Structure Interaction becomes more and more the focus of computational engineering in civil and mechanical engineering, where FEM (Finite element Methods) for soil and structural mechanics and Finite Volume for CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) are dominant. New advanced formulations have been developed for FSI (Fluid Structure Interaction) applications using ALE (Arbitrary ...

The goal of the paper is to describe the large time behaviour of a symmetric diffusion in a high-contrast periodic environment and to characterize the limit process under the diffusive scaling. We consider separately the C0 and the L2 settings.

This paper presents a general description of local flexibility markets as a market-based management mechanism for aggregators. The high penetration of distributed energy resources introduces new flexibility services like prosumer or community self-balancing, congestion management and time-of-use optimization. This work is focused on the flexibility framework to enable multiple participants to compete ...

Marine macroalgae form underwater "blue forests" with several important functions. Hyperspectral imaging from unmanned aerial vehicles provides a rich set of spectral and spatial data that can be used to map the distribution of such macroalgae. Results from a study using 81 annotated hyper-spectral images from the Norwegian coast are presented. A U-net convolutional network was used for classification, ...

Ordinary univariate Bernstein polynomials can be represented in matrix form using factor matrices. In this paper we present the definition and basic properties of such factor matrices extended from the univariate case to the general case of arbitrary number of variables by using barycentric coordinates in the hyper-simplices of respective dimension. The main results in the paper are related to the ...

Generating structured music using deep learning methods with symbolic representation is challenging due to the complex relationships between musical elements that define a musical composition. Symbolic representation of music, such as MIDI or sheet music, can help overcome some of these challenges by encoding the music in a format that allows manipulation and analysis. However, the symbolic ...

A new Jensen inequality for multivariate superquadratic functions is derived and proved. The derived Jensen inequality is then employed to obtain the general Hardy-type integral inequality for superquadratic and subquadratic functions of several variables.

A new discrete Hardy-type inequality with kernels and monotone functions is proved for the case 1<q<p<∞1<q<p<∞. This result is discussed in a general framework and some applications related to Hölder’s summation method are pointed out.
