AKTUALISASI PENDIDIKAN MODERASI BERAGAMA DI MADRASAH

This article describes Religious Moderation Education in Islam, especially about the portrait and development of religious moderation education in madrasas. The crucial issues to be answered regarding moderation education in Islam in Madrasahs are (1) What is meant by religious moderation? (2) What are the characteristics of religious moderation in Islam? (3) and how is the portrait and development of religious moderation education in madrasas? To answer this problem, library research is carried out by exploring various literatures in the form of books, articles, journals, scientific opinions related to Islamic moderation to then be analyzed descriptively . The findings of this study include: Islamic moderation is understood as a balance between strong beliefs and tolerance in which there are Islamic values that are built on the basis of a straight and moderate mindset and not excessive. Madrasas are seen as one of the Islamic educational institutions that have succeeded in bringing moderate Islam in their educational praxis, therefore they deserve to be examples of religious moderation education for other educational institutions. To strengthen madrasas, they can develop mainstreaming of Islamic moderation, among others through: formulating a vision and mission oriented towards Islamic moderation, developing a comprehensive curriculum that incorporates Islamic moderation values, optimizing habituation and madrasa culture as a strategy for internalizing Islamic moderation character values, and developing programs strengthening Islamic moderation. Keywords: Education, Religious Moderation, Madrasah.

A Content Analysis of Blog Posts on Angry Library Patrons

<p>Research Problem: This exploratory study looks into what is written in blogs regarding angry library patrons. It aims to provide insight on angry library patrons by identifying the themes/issues in the blog posts, the reasons for anger of the library patrons, and to describe the characteristics of the blog post authors. Methodology: A qualitative content analysis was used to analyse the blog posts. The blog search engine Google Blogs was used to search for the relevant blog posts. A sample of 92 individual and organisational blog posts were read and analysed. Results: Three main themes emerged in the analysis of the blog posts: 1) the causes of anger which can either be library-related or due to other patrons; 2) how anger was displayed; and 3) the sentiments of the library staff members towards angry patrons. The blog authors mostly come from North America and have a library background. Implications: Analysing these blog posts provides further insight into angry library patrons which might not otherwise be found in existing anger studies in a library setting and problem library patron research. Uncovering what is said in the blogosphere about angry library patrons will give a picture of a wide range of anger issues which may be relevant for library staff members as they try to better understand angry library patrons. While this study was not able to retrieve as much blog posts from an angry library patron’s perspective as originally planned, a study noting the key difference of opinions between angry library patrons and library staff members could be investigated in the future</p>

Neural Precedence Recommender

The state-of-the-art superposition-based theorem provers for first-order logic rely on simplification orderings on terms to constrain the applicability of inference rules, which in turn shapes the ensuing search space. The popular Knuth-Bendix simplification ordering is parameterized by symbol precedence—a permutation of the predicate and function symbols of the input problem’s signature. Thus, the choice of precedence has an indirect yet often substantial impact on the amount of work required to complete a proof search successfully.This paper describes and evaluates a symbol precedence recommender, a machine learning system that estimates the best possible precedence based on observations of prover performance on a set of problems and random precedences. Using the graph convolutional neural network technology, the system does not presuppose the problems to be related or share a common signature. When coupled with the theorem prover Vampire and evaluated on the TPTP problem library, the recommender is found to outperform a state-of-the-art heuristic by more than 4 % on unseen problems.

Finding the Best 3-OPT Move in Subcubic Time

Given a Traveling Salesman Problem solution, the best 3-OPT move requires us to remove three edges and replace them with three new ones so as to shorten the tour as much as possible. No worst-case algorithm better than the Θ(n3) enumeration of all triples is likely to exist for this problem, but algorithms with average case O(n3−ϵ) are not ruled out. In this paper we describe a strategy for 3-OPT optimization which can find the best move by looking only at a fraction of all possible moves. We extend our approach also to some other types of cubic moves, such as some special 6-OPT and 5-OPT moves. Empirical evidence shows that our algorithm runs in average subcubic time (upper bounded by O(n2.5)) on a wide class of random graphs as well as Traveling Salesman Problem Library (TSPLIB) instances.

The Thousands of Models for Theorem Provers (TMTP) Model Library - First Steps

The TPTP World is a well established infrastructure that supports research,development, and deployment of Automated Theorem Proving (ATP) systems forclassical logics.The TPTP world includes the TPTP problem library, the TSTP solution library,standards for writing ATP problems and reporting ATP solutions, and itprovides tools and services for processing ATP problems and solutions.This work describes a new component of the TPTP world - the Thousands ofModels for Theorem Provers (TMTP) Model Library.This is a library of models for identified axiomatizations built fromaxiom sets in the TPTP problem library, along with functions for efficientlyevaluating formulae wrt models, and tools for examining and processingthe models.The TMTP supports the development of semantically guided theorem provingATP systems, provide examples for developers of model finding ATP systems,and provides insights into the semantics of axiomatizations.

Problem Libraries for Non-Classical Logics

Problem libraries for automated theorem proving (ATP) systems play a crucial role when developing, testing, benchmarking and evaluating ATP systems for classical and non-classical logics. We provide an overview of existing problem libraries for some important non-classical logics, namely first-order intuitionistic and first-order modal logics. We suggest future plans to extend these existing libraries and discuss ideas for a general problem library platform for non-classical logics.

Proceedings of the 6th IJCAR ATP System Competition (CASC-J6)

The CADE ATP System Competition (CASC) evaluates the performance of sound, fully automatic, classical logic, ATP systems. The evaluation is in terms of the number of problems solved, the number of acceptable proofs and models produced, and the average runtime for problems solved, in the context of a bounded number of eligible problems chosen from the TPTP problem library, and specified time limits on solution attempts. The 6th IJCAR ATP System Competition (CASC-J6) was held on 24th and 28th June 2012. The design of the competition and its rules, and information regarding the competing systems, are provided in this report.

Implementing Connection Calculi for First-order Modal Logics

An implementation of an automated theorem prover for first-order modal logic is presented that works for the constant, cumulative and varying domains of the modal logics D, T, S4 and S5. It is based on the (classical) connection calculus and uses prefixes (or world paths) and a prefix unification algorithm to capture the restrictions given by the Kripke semantics of the standard modal logics. This permits a modular and elegant treatment of the considered modal logics and yields an efficient implementation. Details of the calculus, the implementation and performance results on the QMLTP problem library are presented.

Different Proofs are Good Proofs

In order to compare the quality of proofs, it is necessary to measure artifacts of the proofs, and evaluate the measurements to determine differences between the proofs. This paper discounts the approach of ranking measurements of proof artifacts, and takes the position that different proofs are good proofs. The position is based on proofs in the TSTP solution library, which are generated by Automated Theorem Proving (ATP) systems applied to first-order logic problems in the TPTP problem library.
