Penerapan Algoritma Apostolico Dalam Pencarian Tiket Pemesanan dan Pendaftaran Seminar

At the seminar, the sale of seminar tickets is done manually, that is, by registering seminar participants. Where in this activity the participants have to manually fill in the data needed to create a certificate at the end of the activity. Accordingly, internet technology can be used for online seminar registration, making it easier for seminar organizers to know the results of the accumulated seminars. In this study, a website-based seminar ticket sales system will be developed as a seminar ticket sales affiliate system, namely by helping seminar organizers to promote or market seminar ticket sales. By using this application, information becomes easier to convey and obtain, both seminar organizers and seminar participants. To provide better activity performance. The system is built using an open source PHP codeigniter framework and uses the apostolico algorithm applied to the seminar category search process on database storage by generating a list of seminar category options based on the keywords entered.

Fabric retrieval system for apparel e-commerce considering Kansei information

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to create a fabric retrieval system for designers that is based on a database that includes designers’ criteria and Kansei (sense and feeling) information, designed for the selection of a fabric from a wide range in e-commerce. Design/methodology/approach The database included sensory expressions for each type of fabric taken from fashion journals and values of smoothness, softness, luster and thinness (referred to as Kansei values) for each fabric. The Kansei values were determined by a Japanese expert designer using standard fabric samples of a fabric type. The system uses two search methods to find the desired type of fabric: a category search method and a free word search method. After finding appropriate types of fabric, the user further narrows down the fabrics of the selected type to more suitable fabrics using the Kansei values. The validity of the Kansei values and the effectiveness of the system were verified by 11 professional designers from Japan and Sweden. Findings The Japanese and Swedish designers were satisfied with the fabrics retrieved for specific items and found that the system was effective. The Kansei values were similar among fashion designers and shown to be effective for fabric retrieval. Originality/value The system will allow designers to find appropriate types of fabric and to narrow their search for fabrics among selected types to find candidate fabrics easily and quickly with their Kansei values and experience without technical knowledge of fabrics.

ALEXITHYMIA AS RISK FACTOR OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF ADDICTIVE BEHAVIOR OF YOUNG PEOPLE IN THE REPUBLIC OF BELARUS

A socio-psychological survey and clinical-psycholo­gical research were conducted (level of alexithymia; intensity of internet addiction; individual-charactero­logical personality traits; individual style of coping strategies, behavioral patterns and resources of per­sonality) in the cohort of 150 people at the age of 15-24, average age: 18.9±1.64, M:F= 87:63). As a result of the randomization of subjects, 3 groups were detected: themain group (people with traces of deve­loping anaddiction from “new psychoactive substan­ces” (NPS)) (MG, 50 people); a comparison group (people with “non-chemical” forms of addiction (in­ternet addiction) (CG, 50 people) and a reference group (50 people, without addictions and deviant be­havior). The research of coping behavior methods, in the category “Search for social support” groups MG and RG significantly differ statistically (probability of passing similarity p = 0.016, t =2.45, df = 147) has shown the significance of asocial network support as in the case of NPS addiction. The total score of the Toronto Alexithymia Scale-26-R showed that peo­ple from MG (average number 67.66±8.01) and RG (average number 58.92±8.36) statistically differ si­gnificantly, with a probability of passing similarity being p<0.001, t=5.3, df=147. Indicators of expres­sed alexithymia noticeably prevailed in MG and CG, in comparison with the RG. While researching in­ternet addiction using a subject oriented scale, there was a statistically significant difference between CG and RG. The probability of a passing similarity is p = 0.006, t=2.82, df =147. The received and analyzed study materials are the basis for the development of acombined preventive and rehabilitation program for those with “NPS” addiction and “internet addiction” among teenagers and youth.

Spatial attention follows category-based attention during naturalistic visual search: evidence from MEG decoding

In daily life, attention is often directed to high-level object attributes, such as when we look out for cars before crossing a road. Previous work used MEG decoding to investigate the influence of such category-based attention on the time course of object category representations. Attended object categories were more strongly represented than unattended categories from 180 ms after scene onset. In the present study, we used a similar approach to determine when, relative to this category-level modulation, attention is spatially focused on the target. Participants completed two tasks. In the first, they detected cars and people at varying locations in photographs of real-world scenes. In the second, they detected a cross that appeared at salient locations in an array of lines. Multivariate classifiers were trained on data of the artificial salience experiment and tested on data of the naturalistic visual search experiment. Results showed that the location of both target and distracter objects could be accurately decoded shortly after scene onset (50 ms). However, the emergence of spatial attentional selection - reflected in better decoding of target location than distracter location - emerged only later in time (240 ms). Target presence itself (irrespective of location and category) could be decoded from 180 ms after stimulus onset. Combined with earlier work, these results indicate that naturalistic category search operates through an initial spatially-global modulation of category processing that then guides attention to the location of the target.

Exploring Product Fit And Brand Fit In Brand Alliances: Establishing The Role Of Categorization Processes

The marketing strategy of brand alliance has received considerable attention in marketing literature. A significant factor in the study of how consumers process brand alliances is the concept of “fit”. Specifically, it has been shown that consumers evaluate the extent to which the brands and products in a brand alliance are congruent. While the concept of fit has been addressed in brand alliance research, little is known about what fit really is. This paper seeks to establish the processes by which consumers make evaluations of both product and brand fit. Based on a review of the relevant literature, it is proposed that consumers use higher-order categorization processes in evaluating brand alliances. A 2 x 2 experiment was conducted to test multiple hypotheses. Results confirm these hypotheses and confirm that consumers do indeed conduct a higher-order category search as they evaluate brand alliances. Based on this work, an entire field of research can now be applied to the study of this promotional strategy. While various studies in the recent past have examined factors affecting the processing of brand alliances, there remains a great deal to be learned about how brand alliance information is processed and what factors affect both cognitive and evaluative outcomes. Applications of categorization theories open new avenues in the study of this area of consumer research.
