Valodniecisko aspektu loma reklāmu mērķauditoriju sasniegšanā drukātajos plašsaziņas līdzekļos
2022
Mūsdienu sociālkultūras pasaulē, kur saziņas neverbālie elementi kļūst arvien nozīmīgāki, dažādiem speciālistiem bija nepieciešama prasme atpazīt informāciju, kas ir sastopama dažādos režīmos (tekstuālajā un vizuālajā) un to kombinācijas, tas ir, multimodalitāte. Darba mērķis bija analizēt ārpus telpām apdrukāto plašsaziņas līdzekļu verbālo un neverbālo sastāvdaļu mijiedarbību. Diskursa valodnieciskajām un vizuālajām īpašībām ir sava nozīme, kas papildina un rada vienotu un aptverošu reklāmas vēstījumu. Izmantojot lingvistisko stila līdzekļu, attēlu, dažādu fontu un burtu izmēru kombināciju, tiek panākts maksimālais efekts uz patērētāju.

Single-mode Bragg gratings in tapered few-modes and multimode fibers
2019
We propose the implementation of fiber Bragg gratings in tapered few-mode and multimode fibers to accomplish single-mode operation by reducing the core diameter, while preserving the core-cladding structure. The gratings present a single reflection band, and the device shows low insertion losses after the taper fabrication and the fiber Bragg gratings inscription. The excitation of high-order odd modes in the core of the fiber has been identified as the main loss mechanism; it can be prevented by means of symmetric illumination of the fibers. We also demonstrate the excitation of high-order cladding modes (cladding-air modes) along the taper transitions; these modes can be removed without a…
Paving the way of systems biology and precision medicine in allergic diseases: The MeDALL success story
2016
MeDALL Mechanisms of the Development of ALLergy; EU FP7-CP-IP; Project No: 261357; 20 (10) -2015 proposed an innovative approach to develop early indicators for the prediction, diagnosis, prevention and targets for therapy(.) MeDALL linked epidemiological, clinical and basic research using a stepwise, large-scale and integrative approach: precisely phenotyped children followed in 14 birth cohorts spread across Europe were combined with systems biology omics, IgE measurement using micro-arrays and environmental data(.) Multimorbidity in the same child is more common than expected by chance alone, suggesting that these diseases share causal mechanisms irrespective of IgE sensitisation(.) IgE …
Spatial Cognition 2020/1: Book of abstracts : August 2-4, 2021, University of Latvia
2021
Spatial Cognition is concerned with the acquisition, development, representation, organization, and use of knowledge about spatial objects in real, virtual or hybrid environments and processed by human or artificial agents. Spatial Cognition includes research from different fields insofar as they are concerned with cognitive agents and space, such as cognitive and developmental psychology, linguistics, computer science, geography, cartography, philosophy, neuroscience, and education. Research issues in the field range from the investigation of human spatial cognition to mobile robot navigation, including topics such as wayfinding, spatial planning, spatial learning, internal and external re…
Implementation of sparse forward mode automatic differentiation with application to electromagnetic shape optimization
2011
In this paper, we present the details of a simple lightweight implementation of the so-called sparse forward mode automatic differentiation (AD) in the C++programming language. Our implementation and the well-known ADOL-C tool (which utilizes taping and compression techniques) are used to compute Jacobian matrices of two nonlinear systems of equations from the MINPACK-2 test problem collection. Timings of the computations are presented and discussed. Moreover, we perform the shape sensitivity analysis of a time-harmonic Maxwell equation solver using our implementation and the tapeless mode of ADOL-C, which implements the dense forward mode AD. It is shown that the use of the sparse forward …
Exploring the Interpersonal Level of Music Performance Anxiety : Online Listener’s Accuracy in Detecting Performer Anxiety
2022
Music performance anxiety (MPA) affects musicians at various stages of a performance, from its preparation until the aftermath of its delivery. Given the commonality and potentially grave consequences of MPA, it is understandable that much attention has been paid to the musician experiencing it. Consequently, we have learned a great deal about the intrapersonal level of MPA: how to measure it, treatments, experimental manipulations, and subjective experiences. However, MPA may also manifest at an interpersonal level by influencing how the performance is perceived. Yet, this has not yet been measured. This exploratory online study focuses on the listener’s perception of anxiety and compares …
Kuka on äänessä? : erityisopiskelijoiden osallistuminen keskusteluun ja musiikilliseen yhteistoimintaan
2017
Tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan erityisopiskelijoiden osallistumista äänellisen ilmaisun keinoin keskusteluun ja musiikilliseen yhteistoimintaan. Teoreettisia viitekehyksiä ovat konstruktivistinen ja pragmaattinen lähestymistapa sekä oppimiseen että vuorovaikutukseen. Pedagoginen viitekehys on yhteistoiminnallinen oppiminen osallistavana työskentelytapana. Tutkimuksessa pyritään selvittämään, lisääkö yhteistoiminnan musiikillisuus erityisopiskelijoiden osallistumista. Aineisto kerättiin etnografisella menetelmällä ammatillisessa erityisoppilaitoksessa tutkijan osallistumalla toimintaan opettajan roolissa. Tutkimukseen osallistui kymmenen 16–21-vuotiasta erityisopiskelijaa. Empiirinen aineisto k…
Gender, identity and representation in video games : an elective discourse-oriented course for Finnish EFL upper secondary school students
2015
Suomen koulujen opetussuunnitelmat pyrkivät toteuttamaan ja edistämään tasa-arvoa, mutta tasa-arvon toteutuminen koulujen arjessa vaatii vielä työtä. Samaan aikaan videopeleistä on tullut suosittu harrastus nuorten ja aikuisten keskuudessa, mutta sekä pelit että peleihin liittyvä keskustelu ovat tasa-arvon suhteen jälkijunassa. Pelaaminen ei ole enää yksinomaan nuorten poikien harrastus. Monet oppijat sukupuoleen katsomatta pelaavat erilaisia pelejä ja osallistuvat pelejä koskevaan keskusteluun. Tämän pro gradu -tutkielman tavoitteena on tuottaa lukio-opetukseen tarkoitettu kurssimateriaalipaketti, jonka avulla kuka tahansa opettaja pystyy lähestymään naisten representaatiota videopeleissä …
