A survey-based approach used to analyse the indoor satisfaction and productivity level of user in smart working during lock-down due to the COVID-19 pandemic

Italy was the first country in Europe to enter lock-down due to COVID-19 pandemic. Most employees have been forced to adopt a work at home solution to avoid any possibility of spreading the virus. The article presents the results of a survey carried out in March-June 2020, during the first lockdown in Italy, aimed at investigating how people perceive the Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) of their households during working from home. The questionnaire consists in a general section reporting information about participant, households and rooms where they perform the working activities; a specific section reporting feedbacks on each IEQ aspects (thermal, visual comfort, air and acoustic quality), overall comfort, productivity and other external variables that can affect users’ well-being during working hours. A total of 330 participants from all over the Italian territory signed the consent to participate in the survey over a period of about 3 months. The dataset was used to define the global level of satisfaction, perception, preference and interference with work at home, considering the main indoor environmental factors. The Machine Learning (ML) approach was applied to identify the most useful model to predict the overall comfort satisfaction.

Perceptions of Football Analysts Goal-Scoring Opportunity Predictions: A Qualitative Case Study

This study aimed to understand the way tactical football analysts perceive the general match analysis issues and to analyze their tactical interpretation of the predictive models of conceded goal-scoring opportunities. Nine tactical analysts responded to the semi-structured interviews that included a general section on the match analysis and a specific one on the results of a study on goal-scoring opportunities conceded by a Spanish La Liga team. Following their transcription, the interviews were codified into categories by the two researchers using Atlas Ti® software. Subsequently, frequency count and co-occurrence analysis were performed based on the encodings. The content analysis reflected that analysts play a crucial role in the analysis of their own team and that of the opponent, the essential skills to exercise as a tactical analyst being “understanding of the game” and “clear observation methodology.” Based on the case study of the conceded goal-scoring opportunities, the major causes and/or solutions attributed by analysts in some of the predictive models were the adaptability of the “style of play” itself according to the “opponent” and “pressure after losing.”

TnCentral: A Prokaryotic Transposable Element Database and Web Portal for Transposon Analysis

The ability of bacteria to undergo rapid evolution and adapt to changing environmental circumstances drives the public health crisis of multiple antibiotic resistance as well as outbreaks of disease in economically important agricultural crops and animal husbandry. Prokaryotic transposable elements (TE) play a critical role in this. Many carry passenger genes (not required for the transposition process) conferring resistance to antibiotics or heavy metals or causing disease in plants and animals. Passenger genes are spread by the normal TE transposition activities, by insertion into plasmids which then spread via conjugation within and across bacterial populations. Thus, an understanding of TE composition and transposition mechanisms is key to developing strategies to combat bacterial pathogenesis. Toward this end, we have developed TnCentral, a bioinformatics resource dedicated to describing and exploring the structural and functional features of prokaryotic TE and whose use is intuitive and accessible to users with or without bioinformatics expertise. We describe here the structure and organization of TnCentral (https://tncentral.proteininformationresource.org/), a web resource for prokaryotic transposable elements (TE). TnCentral currently contains ~400 carefully annotated TE, including transposons from the Tn3, Tn7, Tn402 and Tn554 families, compound transposons, integrons and associated insertion sequences (IS). These TE carry passenger genes, including genes conferring resistance to over 25 classes of antibiotics and nine types of heavy metal as well as genes responsible for pathogenesis in plants, toxin/antitoxin gene pairs, transcription factors and genes involved in metabolism. Each TE has its own entry page providing details about its transposition genes, passenger genes, and other sequence features required for transposition as well as a graphical map of all features. TnCentral content can be browsed and queried through text and sequence-based searches with a graphic output. We describe three use cases, which illustrate how the search interface, results tables, and entry pages can be used to explore and compare TEs. TnCentral also includes downloadable software to facilitate user-driven identification, with manual annotation, of certain types of TE in genomic sequences. Through the TnCentral homepage, users can also access TnPedia which provides comprehensive reviews of the major TE families including an extensive general section, and specialised sections with descriptions of insertion sequence and transposon families. TnCentral and TnPedia are intuitive resources that can be used by clinicians and scientists to assess TE diversity in clinical, veterinary and environmental samples.

The Variations in Verb-Preposition Combinations in the GloWbE Corpus and Its Usage in Informal Englishes

This paper is based on the Corpus of Global Web-based English (GloWbE) which was compiled by Mark Davies in 2013. The GloWbE corpus consists of web data from 20 different English speaking countries. This research is constructed on the GloWbE corpus to investigate the variations in certain verb-preposition combinations in informal Englishes. As the corpus is divided into two sections, such as – general and blog, this study is based on the blog section to compare web data from two inner circle countries such as The USA and Great Britain and two outer circle countries such as – India and Bangladesh. The reason for selecting the blog is that, in the GloWbE corpus, blog section consists of informal data, whereas general section consists of formal data. It is to be noted that the inner circle countries use English as their native tongue, whereas the outer circle countries use English as their second or foreign language. This paper argues that, the verb-preposition combinations or prepositional verbs vary in their frequency and meaning in the aforementioned countries and this paper investigates the following five prepositional verbs from The Cambridge Grammar of the English Language proposed by Huddleston and Pullum in 2002– come up with, look out for, put up with, stand up to, and get along with in the GloWbE corpus to prove that the frequency and meaning of these phrases varies from country to country based on social, cultural and political contexts as seen in the results. The investigation specifically shows the trends of the above five prepositional verbs in the four countries.
