Cyberbullting Summative In my opinion the idea of bots fighting cyber bullying is very awesome and also makes me very thoughtful, while having some sort of hope towards the future. This is because the article explains how there is a possibility in the future that they may be tools or “bots” that could help us prevent cyber bullying, which tech companies are now experimenting these new tools. This could help many people and including me becuase it can prevent and may deacrease cyberbullying…

The Response Rodger Crawford once said, “Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional.” This quote is quite true in the non-fiction book Spare Parts by; Joshua Davis. Spare Parts is about four low class, undocumented teenagers within America, who beat the world’s best engineering university in a robotics competition. To deepen my thinking of the book, I attended an author presentation at NIACC. Spare Parts focused a great deal on immigration, education, confidence, and…

when I was first introduced to using one of the older PC models. Of course, given my age I didn’t understand the value(s) of engaging as a user, on this huge monitor. I was taught how to navigate on the computer on a small scale, while doing different learning programs. Even though I had a computer it home, I didn’t really pay much attention to it. However, there were two electronic devices I was immensely intrigued with: the PlayStation system and regular television. My childhood for the…

within its mind. When a computer is processing information on route to its end goal it is said to be computing. Computing however is a term sometimes used in the realm of animals as well. In math class the teacher may instruct her students to “compute 5+5=x” and the students, without the aid of technology, may mentally compute the equation. Thinking however is a term that, at the moment, is used strictly when referring to animals, mainly humans. Computing within computers is considered to…

Thomas L. Friedman in his book titled, “The World Is Flat” does not give a speculative preview of the wonders that are to come in our lifetime. But rather to get us caught on the wonders that are already here. That is, his view is that the world is not going to be flat; rather, it is already flat. In an own opinion, what he means by “flat” is the connectedness. For instance, the lowering of trade and political barriers together with the exponential technical developments made up of the…

the following questions: 1. Which video did you watch and what ideas presented in the video were most important to you? I watched the video, Differentiating in Math using computer games. I found myself relating to the immediate feedback response time and it seemed so much easier to get the immediate feedback from the computer verses having to wait for the teacher to give students the feedback they need. My students would sometimes become impatient waiting for me to give them feedback which led…

Artificial Intelligence has been a staple of speculative fiction for many years now. Who can forget the murderous “HAL” (so named because each letter is one higher in the alphabet than IBM) from 2001: A SPACE ODESSY? But lately Artificial Intelligence, or “AI” to the techno-hipster set, has been going mainstream in a big way. Life always imitates art, and now IBM has indeed staked its future on AI in the form of their “Watson” product. It is very early in the game, but the promise of AI…

Abstract— Bag of words model (BOW),which was originally used for document classification has been introduced to computer vision field recently and used in object recognition successfully. The bag of words model to the face recognition which can robustly give excellent performance in recognizing the face under various conditions like illumination, pose variation ,facial expression and occlusions. The scale Invariant Feature Transform is used for extracting the features from the face and SVM…
