In the scope of this study we observe the disruptive technologies which appear in the learning material of the higher education more and more frequently from the end of the 20th century, and we also investigate what effects the disruptive technologies have on the educational environment and the methods in the higher education. This article shows a remarkably good example of CogInfoCom, as during teaching the disruptive technologies the lecturers and the students do a close cooperative work in the digital environment suiting the digital life of Z and CE generations, where the humans and ICT are not separable on cognitive level. We also investigate how the disruptive (creative destructive) effect apply to the environment in the higher education. We are seeking answers to whether the new technologies transform the present model of the higher education and whether they replace the present educational methods and scenes. In an international survey we are looking for the answer to: in which phase of the Gartners Hype Graph the disruptive technologies appearing in the field of engineering are introduced in the higher education. We are trying to reveal the connections between the background causes and effects concerning the time when they appear in the educational material.

Overlapping speech and gestures are common in face-to-face conversations and have been interpreted as a sign of synchronization between conversation participants. A number of gestures are even mirrored or mimicked. Therefore, we hypothesize that the gestures of a subject can contribute to the prediction of gestures of the same type of the other subject. In this work, we also want to determine whether the speech segments to which these gestures are related to contribute to the prediction. The results of our pilot experiments show that a Naive Bayes classifier trained on the duration and shape features of head movements and facial expressions contributes to the identification of the presence and shape of head movements and facial expressions respectively. Speech only contributes to prediction in the case of facial expressions. The obtained results show that the gestures of the interlocutors are one of the numerous factors to be accounted for when modeling gesture production in conversational interactions and this is relevant to the development of socio-cognitive ICT.

The Weighted Correlation based Atom Decomposition (WCAD) is a recently proposed physiological intonation model that decomposes the pitch contour into elementary components - atoms. Since these atoms are said to correspond to laryngeal muscle activation, in theory they could be used to infer higher linguistic meaning from the pitch contour. One such application relevant for cognitive infocommunication is the automatic detection of stress that we evaluate on the Hungarian language, for which this task is equivalent to phonological phrasing. The results show high correlation between stress and the presence of an atom peak in a syllable, as well as between stress and/or pauses and atom valleys in the previous syllable. We have run further experiments to evaluate the atom decomposition based stress detection against hand-made stress annotations and a Hidden Markov Model based stress detection system. The analysis shows comparable results with the two methods.
基于加权相关的原子分解(Weighted Correlation based Atom Decomposition, WCAD)是最近提出的一种生理语调模型,它将音高轮廓分解为基本成分——原子。由于这些原子被认为与喉部肌肉的激活相对应,理论上它们可以用来从音高轮廓推断出更高的语言意义。其中一个与认知信息交流相关的应用是我们评估匈牙利语的自动检测重音,这项任务相当于语音短语。结果表明,重音与音节中原子峰的存在之间以及重音和/或停顿与前一个音节中的原子谷之间存在高度相关性。我们进行了进一步的实验,以评估基于原子分解的应力检测与手工应力注释和基于隐马尔可夫模型的应力检测系统。分析表明,两种方法的结果具有可比性。

In the paper we intend to show in detail how the issue of the transition from the ‘Pisces’ into the so-called ‘Aquarius’ "World age" moves through the world view of the two major minds', Wolfgang Pauli and Carl G. Jung's world view of special scientific interpreting "Psyche and Nature" through the reinterpreted symbols of astrology in a "synchronistic way" in particular from the point of view of their last years "cooperation" of not entirely conflict-free. As far as is possible, we touch the issues of their early dreams and symbolic interpretations related to the zodiac and age of the Aquarius.

The present paper presents a unified cloud-based framework for offering Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) services to elderly with cognitive impairments aiming at prolonging and supporting their independent living, through interoperable, open, personalised and seamless ICT solutions. Through its cloud architecture that is based on the OSGi framework, the proposed framework enables easy registration and integration of AAL services to the platform and also easy, transparent, personalised and contextualised access to all the supported services to the cognitively impaired elderly end-users and their caregivers.

Physiological sensors are widely used in order to infer the mental effort of a subject during performing different tasks. Desktop or mobile applications like educational games can gain from such information in order to fine tune the difficulty or the type of a given assignment. Discussions can be found on the advantages and disadvantages of different sensor types (like EEG, ECG, pupillometry, GSR etc.). Machine learning technologies are used to find the baseline of a subject and infer the mental effort levels. In this paper we investigate and compare different types of physiological sensors and classification techniques. Real life experiments with mobile adaptive educational framework (AdaptEd) are presented to support our results.

In this paper we will report our development of digital manufacturing toolbox which supports small and medium-sized enterprises in their cognitive and practical production development processes. The toolbox - or a set of tools - is part of a more extensive toolbox of supports for companies, which is developed as an essential part of the TARGET - Making Regional Manufacturing Globally Competitive and Innovative - project and will respond on the needs of the small and medium-sized manufacturing companies facing the challenges of adopting the digitization in their functions and the barriers caused by the remote location on the northern periphery region.

In this paper, we propose a new protocol to construct ad hoc network using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). Especially, we are focusing on using advertising packet of BLE to construct ad hoc network, since the reach of advertising packet of BLE is longer than ordinary Bluetooth. We would like to use this kind of ad hoc network to develop support tool for disaster victims or group management tool to keep safety during school trip. We designed a protocol that allows us to construct ad hoc network efficiently using advertising packet of BLE. As our experiment using iPhones, the latency of one hop in our ad hoc network was 0.3 second and feasible to send information for our purpose.
