Analyzing topics in social media for improving digital twinning based product development

Digital twinning enables manufacturers to create digital representations of physical entities,thus implementing virtual simulations for product development.Previous efforts of digital twinning neglect the decisive consumer feedback in product development stages,failing to cover the gap between physical and digital spaces.This work mines real-world consumer feedbacks through social media topics,which is significant to product development.We specifically analyze the prevalent time of a product topic,giving an insight into both consumer attention and the widely-discussed time of a product.The primary body of current studies regards the prevalent time prediction as an accompanying task or assumes the existence of a preset distribution.Therefore,these proposed solutions are either biased in focused objectives and underlying patterns or weak in the capability of generalization towards diverse topics.To this end,this work combines deep learning and survival analysis to predict the prevalent time of topics.We propose a specialized deep survival model which consists of two modules.The first module enriches input covariates by incorporating latent features of the time-varying text,and the second module fully captures the temporal pattern of a rumor by a recurrent network structure.Moreover,a specific loss function different from regular survival models is proposed to achieve a more reasonable prediction.Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that our model significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods.

Media Sporting Events as Platforms for‘Soft Power’and Digital Activism

Mediatic sporting events are increasingly used in the geopolitical arena to gain consensus, at the same time emerging as platforms for the discussion of social issues, such as human rights and sustainability. This article presents an investigation into the role of mediatic sporting events and digital platforms in sparking political debate and social engagement to bring about change, including discussions on global and local interests and the performances of activist fans to promote debate on specific issues. The investigation employs a quantitative methodology. The initial inductive analysis uses a matrix of cultural key-frames of the empowerment and protest that accompany media sporting events, verifying their presence and effectiveness in different communication milieus. An analysis of the representation of protests on social media was performed through content analysis. The results of the investigation show that mediatic sporting events are to be understood as a diverse range of generators of multiple political effects: from the exercise of power to mass mobilization and media criticism.

Research on Dynamic Graphic Features in Digital Media Interfaces

In digital media interfaces,dynamic graphics integrate elements of animation design,graphic design,and cinematic language,presenting in various forms and demonstrating significant inclusivity.From the perspective of visual cognition,by capturing dynamic graphics within the interface,three-dimensional information such as time and space is acquired,and the cognition process exhibits characteristics of spatial and temporal correlation.In terms of information cognition,dynamic representation fragments information,resulting in a sense of discontinuity and intermittent memory.The efficiency of information cognition and transmission is enhanced through the coordination of audio,video,and other elements.In aesthetic perception,with the rise of Internet culture,people’s aesthetic perceptions towards dynamic graphic design have evolved,showcasing a generalization of form and the instantaneous nature of content.Technically,the complexity of design and the diversity of applications have established dynamic graphics as a typical design style label in digital media interfaces.

Fair-News: Digital Journalism Model to Prevent Information Pollution and Manipulation

As digital data circulation increases,information pollution and manipulation in journalism have become more prevalent.In this study,a new digital journalism model is designed to contribute to the solution of the main current problems,such as information pollution,manipulation,and account-ability in digital journalism.The model uses blockchain technology due to its transparency,immutability,and traceability.However,it is tough to provide the mechanisms necessary for journalism,such as updating one piece of information,instantly updating all other information affected by the updated information,establishing logical relationships between news,making quick comparisons,sorting and indexing news,and keeping the changing informa-tion about the news in the system,with the blockchain data structure.For this reason,in our study,we have developed a new data structure that provides both the immutability,transparency and traceability properties of the blockchain and can support the communication mechanisms necessary for journalism.The functionality of our proposed data structure is demonstrated in terms of communication mechanisms such as mutability,context,consistency,and reliability through example scenarios.Additionally,our data structure is compared with the data structure of blockchain technology in terms of time,space,and maintenance costs.Accordingly,while the model size increases linearly in blockchain,the model’s size remains approximately constant since the structure we developed is data-independent.In this way,maintenance costs are reduced.Since our model also has an indexing mechanism,it reduces the linear time search complexity to logarithmic time.As a result,the data structure we developed is found to have higher performance than blockchain in the journalism concept.In future studies,it is planned to test all aspects of the model with a pilot application,eliminate its shortcomings,and develop a holistic approach to the root causes of the problems in the journalism focus.

Research on the Teaching System of Creative and Entrepreneurial Software Engineering(Digital Media Technology)Talents Training

The cultivation of innovative and entrepreneurial capability is a quality requirement of the times for the training of college and university talents. However, the regular teaching system universally has such problems as much more emphasis on theory than on practice, much more emphasis on inheritance than on innovation, and mismatching between talent training and market demand, so that a great number of graduates do not have enough innovative capacity, and it is very difficult for them to engage in related jobs of software engineering steadily and permanently. By investigating and analyzing similar majors of more than 20 schools at home and abroad, this article proposes a teaching system of talent training of the 3 C-cored major of "innovative and entrepreneurial" software engineering(digital media technology) based on regions, oriented to the industry and marked by school-enterprise linkage, and in connection with the characteristics of college and university education.

Digital image processing of saturation for two-phase flow in planar porous media model

In this paper, the accuracy of estimating stained non-wetting phase saturation using digital image processing is examined, and a novel post-processing approach for calculating threshold is presented. In order to remove the effect of the background noise of images and to enhance the high-frequency component of the original image, image smoothing and image sharpening methods are introduced. Depending on the correct threshold, the image binarization processing is particularly useful for estimating stained non-wetting phase saturation. Calculated saturation data are compared with the measured saturation data during the two-phase flow experiment in an artificial steel planar porous media model. The results show that the calculated saturation data agree with the measured ones. With the help of an artificial steel planar porous media model, digital image processing is an accurate and simple method for obtaining the stained non-wetting phase saturation.

Analogue Angels and Digital Diamonds： Tracing the Origins of New Media Art

This paper explores the key vocabularies, themes, ideas, artistic movements, and technological innovations contributing to the development of the digital arts over time. As new media theorists have argued, one of the defining features of the digital arts is the break-down of divisions between art forms, and between art and society （for example, Manovich 2001, 2005）. This paper outlines how digital processes intersect with aesthetic and conceptual forms. Relevant frameworks, such as materiality, embodiment, hybridity, interactivity, and narrativity, form the origins of the genre. Digital artworks, like digital media, are interactive, participatory, dynamic, and customizable, incorporating shifting data flows and real-time user inputs （Paul 2003, 67）. The customization of content and technology, as well as the recontextualization of information, characterize projects of digital art.

Digital Game as a New Media, and Digital Game Playing Habits of Youngsters in Turkey

Today, individuals can effectively use all kinds of communication tools with digital transformation. This transformation process is called ＂The Network Society＂ by Castells. According to Castells, people are living with long cables or networks that connect each other. With the progressing and spreading technological advances, entertainment sector is booming since 1950s even more dramatically than the computer sector. Digital games sector, in this perspective, has been the intersection area of the entertainment sector and the computer sector. We can include to these three sectors a fourth one： Communication （or Media） sector. With the convergence of these four sectors, there is an enormous sea of possibilities, opportunities and problemles faced by humans. Our information society is turning into games. Today, the traditional understanding of play has been replaced by digital games. Digital games as an independent communication tool differ from traditional play in that they include a new communication medium into action. There is a different communication process in these digital games, which especially is an interest to younger generations. Digital games provide an interactive environment with individuals as they allow electiveness, mobility and non-linearity. In an era of economic angst and where real and virtual identities are being discussed, individuals of the information society are searching for something different other than mass communication. They seek after individual experiences. The main focus in this study will be to analyze the habits of play in digital games. The relationship between digital games and their users will also be examined. The quantitative study of digital games will be a useful source for future studies and will bridge the gap in this area.
