Challenges of Serendipity in Recommender Systems
2016
Most recommender systems suggest items similar to a user profile, which results in boring recommendations limited by user preferences indicated in the system. To overcome this problem, recommender systems should suggest serendipitous items, which is a challenging task, as it is unclear what makes items serendipitous to a user and how to measure serendipity. The concept is difficult to investigate, as serendipity includes an emotional dimension and serendipitous encounters are very rare. In this paper, we discuss mentioned challenges, review definitions of serendipity and serendipity-oriented evaluation metrics. The goal of the paper is to guide and inspire future efforts on serendipity in r…
Theatricalization of self : personal blogs as theatre performance
2012
The aim of this thesis is to compare personal blogs and theatre art. The study is conducted as theoretical discourse and focuses on comparison of personal blogs with a subgenre of theatre art, performance art. Using actual selected examples from theatre art as well as from personal blogs, the study aims to outline the similarities, which personal blogs share with theatre performance. The theoretical framework of the thesis suggests that personal blogs with their nature of the observed subject, the blogger, and the observer, the reader, produce one of the basic elements of theatre art, theatricality. Furthermore, personal blogs are placed closer to postdramatic theatre, a form of theatre art…

Dialogic journalism : how can journalists participate in the networks of social innovation?
2017
This thesis asks the question “What is the role of journalism in social innovation?” It explores how journalism is redefined when it engages in the creation of “the new” in society. The study analyzes four cases of journalism-related social innovation in two countries – the USA and Finland: a contentious national media event; crowdsourcing for legislation; a series of dialogic innovation workshops in Finland; an environment of data-based civic innovation in the USA. Social innovation is defined as innovations that work in meeting social goals. In literature and the contemporary discussion on the crisis of journalism, innovation is required to restore journalisms’ legitimacy and financial su…

Fatigue while driving in a car simulator : effects on vigilance performance and autonomic skin conductance
2010
In this vigilance research the effect of fatigue on driver’s voluntary reaction times (RT) and autonomic skin conductance (SC) was studied. Participants (n=17) drove approximately 3 hours in a simulator responding simultaneously on a peripheral visual vigilance task (PVVT). RTs were classified into 5 quintiles according to their latency. Also misses and misclassifications were explored. Results indicated that RTs increased linearly over time. SC amplitudes differed significantly between RT quintiles. Vigilance performance was the best when arousals were frequent but their magnitude remained relatively low. Frequent and high amplitude arousals in turn were associated with the worst performan…
Kehon koostumuksen arvioiminen ihopoimumittauksella, biosähköisellä impedanssilla ja kaksienergisen röntgensäteilyn absorptiometrialla
2010
Ojala, Paula Emilia. Kehon koostumuksen arvioiminen ihopoimumittauksella, biosähköisellä impedanssilla ja kaksienergisen röntgensäteilyn absorptiometrialla. Liikuntafysiologian kandidaatintutkielma. Liikuntabiologian laitos, Jyväskylän yliopisto. Syksy 2010. 56s. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää ovatko kaksienergisen röntgensäteilyn absorptiometrialla (DXA), biosähköisellä impedanssilla (BIA) ja ihopoimujen paksuusmittauksella (SF) arvioidut kehon rasvaprosentit yhtäläisiä. Vedenalaisesta punnitusmenetelmästä on suurimmaksi osaksi jo luovuttu maailmalla ja DXA on todettu luotettavaksi ja tarkaksi menetelmäksi kehon koostumuksen arvioimisessa. Sen vuoksi BIA:n ja SF:n tuloksia verratt…
