On the basis of analyzing the deficiency of the traditional assignment, the term project driven teaching method is proposed for electric elements of power plant. The differences in the content and depth of term project can be tailored to students at different levels. It is good for effectively promoting students to complete their assignments independently, exercising their comprehensive application design ability, and improving the learning effect. Taking the course of electric elements of power plant as an example, the term project research content and specific implementation steps is designed. Through the implementation of the term project, the advantages of the term project driven teaching method and its influence on the subsequent courses and practice of the major are analyzed.

Video indexing approaches such as visual concept classification and person recognition are essential to enable fine-grained semantic search in large-scale video archives such as the historical video collection of former German Democratic Republic (GDR) maintained by the German Broadcasting Archive (DRA). Typically, a lexicon of visual concepts has to be defined for semantic search. However, the definition of visual concepts can be more or less subjective due to individually differing judgments of annotators, which may have an impact on annotation quality and subsequently training of supervised machine learning methods. In this paper, we analyze the inter-coder agreement for historical TV data of the former GDR for visual concept classification and person recognition. The inter-coder agreement is evaluated for a group of expert as well as non-expert annotators in order to determine differences in annotation homogeneity. Furthermore, correlations between visual recognition performance and inter-annotator agreement are measured. In this context, information about image quantity and agreement are used to predict average precision for concept classification. Finally, the influence of expert vs. non-expert annotations acquired in the study are used to evaluate person recognition.

Political Versus Apolitical Epistemologies in Knowledge Organization

Section 1 raises the issue of this article: whether knowledge organization systems (KOS) and knowledge organization processes (KOP) are neutral or political by nature and whether it is a fruitful ideal that they should be neutral. These questions are embedded in the broader issue of scientific and scholarly research methods and their philosophical assumptions: what kinds of methods and what epistemological assumptions lie behind the construction of KOS (and research in general)? Section 2 presents and discusses basic approaches and epistemologies and their status in relation to neutrality. Section 3 offers a specific example from feminist scholarship in order to clearly demonstrate that methodologies that often claim to be or are considered apolitical represent subjectivity disguised as objectivity. It contains four subsections: 3.1 Feminist views on History, 3.2 Psychology, 3.3 Knowledge Organization, and 3.4. Epistemology. Overall, feminist scholarship has argued that methodologies, claiming neutrality but supporting repression of groups of people should be termed epistemological violence and they are opposed to social, critical, and pragmatic epistemologies that reflect the interaction between science and the greater society. Section 4 discusses the relation between the researchers’ (and indexers’) political attitudes and their paradigms/indexing. Section 5 considers the contested nature of epistemological labels, and Section 6 concludes that the question of whose interest a specific KOS, algorithm, or information system is serving should always be at the forefront in information studies and knowledge organization (KO).
