Psychophysical basis for maximum pushing and pulling forces: A review and recommendations

The objective of this paper was to perform a comprehensive review of psychophysically determined maximum acceptable pushing and pulling forces. Factors affecting pushing and pulling forces are identified and discussed. Recent studies show a significant decrease (compared to previous studies) in maximum acceptable forces for males but not for females when pushing and pulling on a treadmill. A comparison of pushing and pulling forces measured using a high inertia cart with those measured on a treadmill shows that the pushing and pulling forces using high inertia cart are higher for males but are about the same for females. It is concluded that the recommendations of Snook and Ciriello (1991) for pushing and pulling forces are still valid and provide reasonable recommendations for ergonomics practitioners. Regression equations as a function of handle height, frequency of exertion and pushing/pulling distance are provided to estimate maximum initial and sustained forces for pushing and pulling acceptable to 75% male and female workers.

Geometric characterization on the solvability of regulator equations

The solvability of the regulator equation for a general nonlinear system is discussed in this paper by using geometric method. The ‘feedback’ part of the regulator equation, that is, the feasible controllers for the regulator equation, is studied thoroughly. The concepts of minimal output zeroing control invariant submanifold and left invertibility are introduced to find all the possible controllers for the regulator equation under the condition of left invertibility. Useful results, such as a necessary condition for the output regulation problem and some properties of friend sets of controlled invariant manifolds, are also obtained.     

From the field to the web: implementing best-practice recommendations in documentary linguistics

New methods of documenting languages with digital technologies has led to a multitude of different formats that are difficult to reuse over time. To overcome the problems surrounding the portability of digital language documentation, linguists are in the process of formulating best-practice recommendations to increase the likelihood of their work's long-term survival. This paper describes the implementation of a comprehensive set of current best-practice recommendations pertaining to content, format, discovery, access, citation, preservation, and rights in the context of the language documentation efforts of the Texas German Dialect Project. This project is different from others in that it is not primarily concerned with digitizing and archiving existing recordings. Instead, the archive it is creating is the end-result of a research project whose workflow begins with data-collection in the filed and ends with depositing digitized and annotated language materials in a web-accessible digital archive of Texas German. This paper shows how a number of conflicting best-practice recommendations can be resolved, thereby satisfying the diverse needs of academic research, teaching, and outreach to the community. As such, the results reported here are an important contribution to the search for strategies guaranteeing the long-term survival of digital language documentation resources.

Efficiently using contextual influence to recommend new items to ephemeral groups

Group recommender systems suggest items to groups of users that want to utilize those items together. These systems can support several activities that can be performed together with other people and are typically social, like watching TV or going to the restaurant. In this paper we study ephemeral groups, i.e., groups constituted by users who are together for the first time, and for which therefore there is no history of past group activities.Recent works have studied ephemeral group recommendations proposing techniques that learn complex models of users and items. These techniques, however, are not appropriate to recommend items that are new in the system, while we propose a method able to deal with new items too. Specifically, our technique determines the preference of a group for a given item by combining the individual preferences of the group members on the basis of their contextual influence, the contextual influence representing the ability of an individual, in a given situation, to guide the group’s decision. Moreover, while many works on recommendations do not consider the problem of efficiently producing recommendation lists at runtime, in this paper we speed up the recommendation process by applying techniques conceived for the top-$K$ query processing problem. Finally, we present extensive experiments, evaluating: (i) the accuracy of the recommendations, using a real TV dataset containing a log of viewings performed by real groups, and (ii) the efficiency of the online recommendation task, exploiting also a bigger partially synthetic dataset.
