Driven by artificial intelligence technology, the research of intangible cultural heritage innovative design is carried out. Firstly, appearance modeling characteristics, decorative element and composition form characteristics typical products are analyzed. According to collected relevant data existing products, combined with regional other factors, analysis Atlas product innovation constructed...

Recent work on birds and non-human primates has shown that taxonomic differences in field measures of innovation, tool use and social learning are associated with size of the mammalian cortex and avian mesopallium and nidopallium, as well as ecological traits like colonization success. Here, I review this literature and suggest that many of its findings are relevant to hominin intelligence. In ...

Distinct types of collective intelligence are prominent over different countries. This study explores why some types of collective intelligence knowledge services flourish in some countries but not in others by employing an analogy related to Darwin’s evolutionary theory. This study uses geographical isolation theory and Hofstede’s cultural dimensions theory (such as the uncertainty avoidance i...

Intelligence analysts rely on reports that are subject to many varieties of uncertainty, such as noise in sensors; deception or error by human sources; or cultural misunderstanding. To be effective, intelligence analysts must understand the relationship between reports, the events or situations reported upon, and the hypotheses of interest to which those events or situations are evidential. Com...

To further knowledge concerning the nature and nurture of intelligence, we scrutinized how heritability coefficients vary across specific cognitive abilities both theoretically and empirically. Data from 23 twin studies (combined N = 7,852) showed that (a) in adult samples, culture-loaded subtests tend to demonstrate greater heritability coefficients than do culture-reduced subtests; and (b) in...

manner without consideration of cultural context and differences between social groups. Sternberg (1997) also argued that most conventional concepts of intelligence are too narrow and deal only with a small portion of intelligence as a whole. Sternberg (1985) proposed three basic concepts (the ability to adapt to one’s environment, the ability to deal with novel tasks, and the ability to develo...

one of the by-products of globalization is the need of english spread as a lingua franca. according to the linguistic relativism and world englishes theories, one expects then, a certain proportion of anglo-american cultural values and viewpoints will be projected to the outer circle societies. while this transmission could enhance the cultural quotient (cq) of the learners, it can also bear ne...

The authors review six virtual learning environments built to support the acquisition of cultural knowledge and communication skills: ATL, BiLAT, Croquelandia, Second China, TLCTS, and VECTOR. Each leverages modern 3D video game engine technology which allows high-fidelity simulation of new cultural settings, including representations of buildings, streets, art work, dress, voice, gestures, and...

Prior research on the management of IT offshore outsourcing projects has focused on crosscultural issues or on project and relationship management issues. However, there is still a lack of understanding concerning effective management practices that help to overcome the challenges of client-vendor cultural distance in IT offshoring relationships. Therefore, the goal of this research is to incre...
