PREFACE (by Piotr Napieralski)

The monograph TEWI 2021 is a direct response to the demand of the industry, which looks for research projects partners. On the one hand, the material submitted for this monograph will give opportunity for the academic community to present their competencies in the thematic areas of research they conduct. On the other hand, the industry will stimulate the research development of academic staff by outlining current and future areas in the field of modern technologies. The aim of this monograph is to popularize research areas in:

  • technology (information technologies),
  • education (new methods and IT solutions implemented in education),
  • knowledge (practical applications of physics and mathematics in technical sciences),
  • innovation (transfer of new ideas between science and business).

This publication is expected to become a forum for sharing ideas, thoughts, and good practices between industry and universities. Our goal is to familiarize the readers with crucial aspects related to technology, education, knowledge, and innovation. The authors of each chapter represent the scientific community and the solutions they present are related to their research and teaching activities. The attention is paid to the didactic activity, as it is of utmost importance for the industry environment and educating future employees who are expected to demonstrate a broad knowledge of new technologies. Modern teaching methods such as "Case Study" or "Problem Based Learning", which has been very popular recently, allow to transfer knowledge to students in an active way.

We expect this book will be of interest for researchers, academic staff and industry representatives in information technology and education. The editors would like to express their deepest gratitude to all the authors, chapter reviewers and other people who contributed to preparing this book for their effort and help.

    Prediction of Natural Image Saliency for Synthetic Images
    (Wydawnictwo Politechniki Łódzkiej, 2021) Rudak, Ewa; Rynkiewicz, Filip; Daszuta, Marcin; Sturgulewski, Łukasz; Lazarek, Jagoda
    Numerous saliency models are being developed with the use ofneural networks and are capable of combining various features and predicting the saliency values with great results. In fact, it might be difficult to replace the possibilities of artificial intelligence applied to algorithms responsible for predicting saliency. However, the low-level features are still important and should not be removed completely from new saliency models. This work shows that carefully chosen and integrated features, including a deep learning based one, can be used for saliency prediction. The integration is obtained by using Multiple Kernel Learning. This solution is quite effective, as compared to a few other models tested on the same dataset.

    Synergy of Convolutional Neural Networks and Geometric Active Contours
    (Wydawnictwo Politechniki Łódzkiej, 2021) Tomczyk, Arkadiusz; Pankiv, Oleksandr; Szczepaniak, Piotr S.
    Hybrid approach to machine learning techniques could potentially provide improvements in image segmentation results. In this paper, a model of cooperation of convolutional neural networks and geometric active contours is proposed and developed. The novelty of the approach lies in combining deep neural networks and active contour model in order to improve CNN output results. The method is examined on the image segmentation task and applied to the detection and extraction of nuclei of HL60 cell line. The model had been tested on both 2-D and 3-D images. Because of feature learning characteristics of convolutional neural networks, the proposed solution should perform well in multiple scenarios and can be considered generic.

    Simulation of photon emission by an excited atom in the quantum register
    (Wydawnictwo Politechniki Łódzkiej, 2021) Ostrowski, Marcin
    This paper investigates whether a quantum computer can efficiently simulate the atom deexcitation process with emission of photon. An algorithm is presented for simulating of the atom-photon interaction and photon free propagation, implemented on standard two-input gates. The paper examines the properties of the proposed algorithm and then compares the obtained results with the theoretical predictions.

    Objects’ colors impact on scene image perception in immersive virtual environments
    (Wydawnictwo Politechniki Łódzkiej, 2021) Andrzejczak, Jarosław; Lenarczyk, Marcin
    Objects’ color perception, including these in virtual space, plays significant role in looking for information, rating content and navigating. Prepared research environment consist of five individual experiments focused on analysis of color (especially its contrast) impact on objects perception in virtual space. Both quantitative data from virtual environment and qualitative data from questionnaires have been acquired. Results from one task showed, that there is a correlation between high color contrast and memorization efficiency. At the same time, in accordance with verified results we can’t be certain, that colors having high contrast with surroundings are selected first, better noticed and chosen faster.

    The main objective of the study was to implement the intuitive gesture set for movement and interaction in a virtual HOPA game. A review and analysis of existing solutions using the Leap Motion device to track gestures and hand movements was conducted. Two sets of movement modes were created and subjected to a series of tests to determine the best optimal movement and interaction technique. The tests were verified in terms of speed and accuracy of task performance.

    Gamification in Accounting Education- Evidence From Logistic Course Experience
    (Wydawnictwo Politechniki Łódzkiej, 2021) Fajczak-Kowalska, Anita; Misztal, Anna
    The study’s main goal is to indicate the possibility of using gamification in teaching the basics of accounting at a university. The authors implement the gamification model among logistics students at one of the universities in Lodz. The experiment involved the introduction of gamification during the pandemic in 2020 and 2021. The classes were conducted using MS Teams and the Moodle platform. The study is theoretical and empirical. The first part presents the basic theoretical issue related to gamification and gamification in education; the second part shows a case study. The results of the implementation of gamification in teaching accounting are positive. The students showed higher commitment, assessed the classes better, gained additional knowledge, established better interpersonal relationships.

    Educational infrastructures for IT teaching
    (Wydawnictwo Politechniki Łódzkiej, 2021) Kwapisz, Marcin; Karbowańczyk, Michał
    The basic problem of teaching information technologies is a proper infrastructure for classes and courses. This especially applies to remote and e-learning, when a student does not have access to “physical” laboratories. Technologies based on virtualization and containerization can help a lot to deliver the infrastructure. Unfortunately it requires a significant amount of administrative work, because many tasks simply have to be done manually. This article explains the current situation for Infrastructures and Network Applications (INA) specialization at Institute of Information Technology. It also describes how the educational infrastructure could or should be managed in the future.
