Computer games are widespread nowadays and enjoyed by people of all ages. But when it comes to kids, playing these games can be more than just fun, it is a way for them to develop important skills and build emotional intelligence. Facial expressions and sounds that kids produce during gameplay reflect their feelings, thoughts, and moods. In this pa...
While academic metrics such as transcripts and GPA are commonly used to evaluate students' knowledge acquisition, there is a lack of comprehensive metrics to measure their preparedness for the challenges of post-graduation life. This research paper explores the impact of various factors on university students' readiness for change and transition, w...
Nowadays, people get increasingly attached to social media to connect with other people, to study, and to work. The presented article uses Twitter posts to better understand public opinion regarding the vegan (plant-based) diet that has traditionally been portrayed negatively on social media. However, in recent years, studies on health benefits, CO...
Researchers have been investigating image features to assess objects’ aesthetic quality for many years. However, the question of context-dependency of color aesthetics remains questionable. The current paper examines the context dependency of essential variables affecting aesthetic pleasantness - color harmonies and color impressions, on the exampl...
More and more industrial applications are facing the problem of imprecise information handling. Computing with Words (CW) is a mathematical model for approximate knowledge representation, reasoning, and processing of natural language. The very basic idea of CW is to use words instead of numbers for computing and reasoning using fuzzy sets and logic...
