Many of us are fatigued by our collective and individual struggles; anxious about health, work, and the future. The time-honored tradition of turning the page from one year to reveal the opportunities of the next was punctuated by the recent presidential inauguration. We viewers were riveted as a diminutive young poet seized our attention, gracefully—through her words and gestures — echoing the (presidential) themes of unity and hope.

  • Taxonomy of Mobile Web Applications from a Taxonomy and Business Analysis for Mobile Web Applications
    Chapter 3: Taxonomy of Mobile Web Applications from A Taxonomy and Business Analysis for Mobile Web Applications By Kevin Hao Liu Ph.D. Computer Science Victoria University Submitted to the System Design and Management Program in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Management and Engineering At the Massachusetts Institute of Technology February 2009 © 2009 Kevin H Liu. All rights reserved The author hereby grants to MIT permission to reproduce and to distribute publicly paper and electronic copies of this thesis document in whole or in part in any medium now known or hereafter created. ABSTRACT Mobile web applications refer to web applications on mobile devices, aimed at personalizing, integrating, and discovering mobile contents in user contexts. This thesis presents a comprehensive study of mobile web applications by proposing a new taxonomy for mobile web applications, and conducting a business analysis in the field of mobile web applications. The thesis reviews the current surrounding environment for mobile web applications, namely, web 2.0 and 3.0, wireless communication technology, and Smartphone platform. The recent entry and success of Apple’s iPhone greatly enhanced the public awareness of the Smartphone technology. Google’s release of open-source Android platform and T-Mobile’s deployment of Android-powered “Dream” Smartphone not only intensify the competition among suppliers, but also provide an open-source foundation for mobile web applications. This thesis introduces a new mobile web application taxonomy to systematically study the values and the groupings of the mobile web applications. By introducing features and categories, the taxonomy provides a framework so the related companies and businesses can be comparatively analyzed and summarized.

  • RL-DARTS: Differentiable Architecture Search for Reinforcement Learning
    RL-DARTS: Differentiable Architecture Search for Reinforcement Learning Yingjie Miao∗, Xingyou Song∗, Daiyi Peng Summer Yue, Eugene Brevdo, Aleksandra Faust Google Research, Brain Team Abstract We introduce RL-DARTS, one of the first applications of Differentiable Architec- ture Search (DARTS) in reinforcement learning (RL) to search for convolutional cells, applied to the Procgen benchmark. We outline the initial difficulties of applying neural architecture search techniques in RL, and demonstrate that by simply replacing the image encoder with a DARTS supernet, our search method is sample-efficient, requires minimal extra compute resources, and is also compati- ble with off-policy and on-policy RL algorithms, needing only minor changes in preexisting code. Surprisingly, we find that the supernet can be used as an actor for inference to generate replay data in standard RL training loops, and thus train end-to-end. Throughout this training process, we show that the supernet gradually learns better cells, leading to alternative architectures which can be highly competi- tive against manually designed policies, but also verify previous design choices for RL policies. 1 Introduction and Motivation Over the last decade, recent advancements in deep reinforcement learning have heavily focused on algorithmic improvements [25, 71], data augmentation [51, 35], infrastructure upgrades [15, 27], and even hyperparameter tuning [72, 16]. Automating such methods for RL have given rise to the field of Automated Reinforcement Learning (AutoRL). Surprisingly however, one relatively underdeveloped and unexplored area is in automating large-scale policy architecture design. Recently, works in larger-scale RL suggest that designing a policy’s architecture can be just as important as the algorithm or quality of data, if not more, for various metrics such as generalization, transferrability and efficiency.

  • Implicit Bias
    IMPLICIT BIAS STATE OF THE SCIENCE: IMPLICIT BIAS REVIEW 2014 As a university-wide, interdisciplinary research institute, the Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity works to deepen understanding of the causes of—and solutions to—racial and ethnic disparities worldwide and to bring about a society that is fair and just for all people. Our research is designed to be actively used to solve problems in society. Research and staff expertise are shared through an extensive network of colleagues and partners, ranging from other researchers, grassroots social justice advocates, policymakers, and community leaders nationally and globally, who can quickly put ideas into action.

  • Tech Giants, Artificial Intelligence, and the Future of Journalism
    Tech Giants, Artificial Intelligence, and the Future of Journalism This book examines the impact of the “Big Five” technology companies – Apple, Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Microsoft – on journalism and the media industries. It looks at the current role of algorithms and artifi- cial intelligence in curating how we consume media and their increasing influence on the production of the news. Exploring the changes that the technology industry and automation have made in the past decade to the production, distribution, and con- sumption of news globally, the book considers what happens to journal- ism once it is produced and enters the media ecosystems of the Internet tech giants – and the impact of social media and AI on such things as fake news in the post-truth age. The audience for this book are students and researchers working in the field of digital media, and journalism studies or media studies more generally. It will also be useful to those who are looking for ex- tended case studies of the role taken by tech giants such as Facebook and Google in the fake news scandal, or the role of Jeff Bezos in transforming The Washington Post. Jason Whittaker is the Head of the School of English and Journalism at the University of Lincoln. He worked for 15 years as a tech journalist and has written extensively on magazine journalism and digital media, most recently as the co-editor of the collection Online Journalism in Africa (2013) and as the author of Magazine Production (2016).

    Social Media Adoption by Members of Congress: Trends and Congressional Considerations Jacob R. Straus Specialist on the Congress October 9, 2018 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R45337 SUMMARY R45337 Social Media Adoption by Members of October 9, 2018 Congress: Trends and Congressional Jacob R. Straus Considerations Specialist on the Congress [email protected] Communication between Members of Congress and their constituents has changed with the development of online social networking services. Many Members now use email, official For a copy of the full report, websites, blogs, YouTube channels, Twitter, Facebook, and other social media platforms to please call 7-5700 or visit communicate—technologies that were nonexistent or not widely available just a few decades www.crs.gov. ago. Social networking services have arguably enhanced the ability of Members of Congress to fulfill their representational duties by providing them with greater opportunities to share information and potentially to gauge constituent preferences in a real- time manner. In addition, electronic communication has reduced the marginal cost of communications. Unlike with postal letters, social media can allow Members to reach large numbers of constituents for a fixed cost. This report examines Member adoption of social media broadly. Because congressional adoption of long-standing social media platforms Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube is nearly ubiquitous, this report focuses on the adoption of other, newer social media platforms. These include Instagram, Flickr, and Google+, which have each been adopted by at least 2.5% of Representatives and Senators. Additionally, Members of Congress have adopted Snapchat, Medium, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Periscope, and Tumblr at lower levels.

  • When Users Generate Content
    User Generated Content – a mega-trend in the new media landscape By Professor Jens F. Jensen InDiMedia, Aalborg University [email protected] User generated content refers to media content which in contrast to traditional media producers, such as broadcasters, media houses and production companies is made by ordinary users of websites, TV channels and the like. Naturally, user generated content has always existed. We know it from telephone conversations, letters to the editor, notice boards, classified advertisements, etc. And we know it from the internet, which as a medium from the very start has been driven by various forms of user generated content such as E-mails, bulletin boards, mailing lists, news groups, chat forums, weblogs, etc. All examples of the fact that users can add material to the internet as well as having access to material uploaded by other users. However, it is not until the last couple of years that we have begun to refer to and thematise this phenomenon as ‘user generated content’. And this, of course, marks a noteworthy change. It has primarily happened in connection with web publishing and online content, but also in relation to television and more generally, in connection with production of content to new media. The intensified focus on, and the renewed interest for user generated content can be attributed to various conditions. First of all, it is a result of the emergence of new digital technologies, which make full or semi-professional production tools for media easily accessible at an affordable cost for ordinary users. In this way, the entrance barrier to the media is lowered to a level where the individual users or community-based organisations can become content producers, and a general democratisation of media production can take place.
