background: video-based instruction has been stated as an effective method of teaching and its potentials have encouraged instructors learners to opt this method purpose: the current study has compared the students' cognitive learning in the two approaches of lecture- based and video-based teaching. methods: this quasi-experimental study was conducted on 88 senior nursing students who were rand...

This paper presents an ART-type network (adaptive resonant theory) to detect objects in a video sequence classifying the pixels as foreground or background. The proposed ART network (ART+) not only possesses the structure and learning ability of an ART-based network, but also uses a neural merging process to adapt the variability of the input data (pixels) in the scene along the time. Experimen...

Educational games have proliferated, but questions remain about the effectiveness at teaching both in the shortand long-term. Also unclear is whether particular game features have positive effects on learning. To examine these issues, this paper describes a controlled experiment using an educational game that was professionally developed to teach about cognitive biases in decision making (Funda...

State-of-the-art systems for video concept detection mainly rely on visual features. Some previous approaches have also included audio features, either using low-level features such as mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) or exploiting the detection of specific audio concepts. In this paper, we investigate a bag of auditory words (BoAW) approach that models MFCC features in an auditory vo...

Video conferencing (VC) has gained popularity as a tool to bridge the gap of distance when travel is not feasible or desired. In this paper, we introduce video with focus on its application in Remote Learning and Virtual Conferences. We discuss components conferencing, including hardware, network, conference environment. also highlight benefits Conferences, such increased interactivity real-tim...
