Glocal News is a web app, a mashup of Google News and Google Maps, which attempts to visualize top local news, globally, in 70 languages. The news headlines, which are displayed on an infowindow, are provided by the public Google News RSS. The algorithm, built in JavaScript, uses geocoding in order to extract the toponym from a given location and the local storage technique in order to store th...

This paper proposes a distributed design method of controllers having glocal (global/local) information structure for large-scale network systems. Distributed design, independent all subcontrollers that constitute structured controller, facilitates scalable controller synthesis. While existing methods confine attention to the decentralized or structures, this study addresses glocal-structured c...

Development of deep learning has led to progress in computer vision, including metric tasks such as image retrieval, through convolutional neural networks. In the distance (i.e., similarity) between images needs be computed and then compared return similar images. Global descriptors are good at extracting holistic features an image, overall shape main object silhouette. On other hand, local ext...

Abstract Educating future youth workers is a particular challenge for higher education. It results not only in the acquisition of basic knowledge and skills, but also implementation glocal perspective. In this aspect, process internationalization education key element enabling optimal shaping workers’ vocational identity. The article presents an international strategic partnership project such ...

To investigate the role of selective attention in artificial grammar (AG) learning, participants were presented with "GLOCAL" strings-that is, chains of compound global and local letters. The global and local levels instantiated different grammars. The results of this experiment revealed that participants learned only the grammar for the level to which they attended. The participants were not e...
