ASEAN identity in higher education through literary pedagogy perceived by teaching personnel at universities in Southern Tagalog Region, the Philippines
As regionalism has become a prime interest within the Asia Pacific, participating member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) aspire to consolidate unity despite cultural diversity through forging an ASEAN identity. Institutions of higher learning are expected to explore educational innovations and curriculum reforms to facilitate the regional identity formation. Hence, this...
Teaching English online in higher education: Understanding the social climate of online academic English courses
This study examined the social climate of fully synchronous online English classrooms and its effects on students’ learning outcomes in a mixed-methods design, engaging 196 first-year non-English major students experiencing their first fully synchronous online English classes on Zoom in one academic term (12 weeks), taught by foreign lecturers. The results reveal a very positive...
A 2.71 fJ/conversion-step 10-bit 50 MSPS split-capacitor array SAR ADC for FOG systems
This investigation demonstrates a 10-bit SAR-ADC with low power dissipation per conversion step at 50 MS/s sampling rate. The proposed ADC is featured with the split-capacitance array by using unity-gain amplifiers and designed for fibre optic gyroscope (FOG) systems. The buffers based on the unity-gain amplifiers replace the bridge capacitors of the split-capacitance array in...
On Some Properties of Non-traceable Cubic Bridge Graph
Graphs considered in this paper are simple finite undirected graphs without loops or multiple edges. A simple graphs where each vertex has degree 3 is called cubic graphs. A cubic graphs, that is, 1-connected or cubic bridge graph is traceable if its contains Hamiltonian path otherwise, non-traceable. In this paper, we introduce a new family...
Community Stakeholder’s Knowledge and Awareness of the Ecological and Socio-Economic uses of ManGroves in Calatagan, Batangas, Philippines
Mangrove forests are a complex assemblage of flora that plays significant roles in the sustainability of human and environmental well-being for numerous reasons. However, a lot of mangrove forests have been converted for other purposes and uses in the past years. Limited knowledge about unsustainable aquaculture, coastal infrastructure, urban development, pollution, and overexploitation of mangrove...
A comparative performance of breast cancer classification using hyper-parameterized machine learning models
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer and has the second-highest mortality rate in women among all cancer types. Accurate cancer diagnosis plays a great part in breast cancer treatment. The application of machine learning methods in cancer classification has grown popular and has provided an accurate classification of malignant (cancerous) and benign (non-cancerous)...
Fusing compressed deep ConvNets with a self-normalizing residual block and alpha dropout for a cost-efficient classification and diagnosis of gastrointestinal tract diseases
The challenging task of diagnosing gastrointestinal (GI) tracts recently became a popular research topic, where most researchers performed extraordinary feats using numerous deep learning (DL) and computer vision techniques to achieve state-of-the-art (SOTA) diagnostic performance based on accuracy. However, most proposed methods relied on combining complex computational methods and algorithms, causing a significant increase in...
Concentration Robustness in LP Kinetic Systems
For a reaction network with species set S, a log-parametrized (LP) set is a non-empty set of the form E(P,x∗)={x∈RS>∣logx−logx∗∈P⊥} where P (called the LP set’s flux subspace) is a subspace of RS, x∗ (called the LP set’s reference point) is a given element of RS>, and P⊥ (called the LP set’s parameter subspace) is...
Career Track Prediction using Deep Learning Model Based on Discrete Series of Quantitative Classification
In this paper, a career track recommender system was proposed using Deep Neural Network model. This study aims to assist guidance counselors in guiding their students in the selection of a suitable career track. It is because a lot of Junior High school students experienced track uncertainty and there are instances of shifting to another...
