Deciding on appropriate use of force: human-machine interaction in weapons systems and emerging norms
This article considers the role of norms in the debate on autonomous weapons systems (AWS). It argues that the academic and political discussion is largely dominated by considerations of how AWS relate to norms institutionalised in international law. While this debate on AWS has produced insights on legal and ethical norms and sounded options of a possible regulation or ban, it neglects to investigate how complex human-machine interactions in weapons systems can set standards of appropriate use of force, which are politically-normatively relevant but take place outside of formal, deliberative law-setting. While such procedural norms are already emerging in the practice of contemporary warfare, the increasing technological complexity of AI-driven weapons will add to their political-normative relevance. I argue that public deliberation about and political oversight and accountability of the use of force is at risk of being consumed and normalised by functional procedures and perceptions. This can have a profound impact on future of remote-warfare and security policy

Using ontologies to enhance human understandability of global post-hoc explanations of black-box models
The interest in explainable artificial intelligence has grown strongly in recent years because of the need to convey safety and trust in the ‘how’ and ‘why’ of automated decision-making to users. While a plethora of approaches has been developed, only a few focus on how to use domain knowledge and how this influences the understanding of explanations by users. In this paper, we show that by using ontologies we can improve the human understandability of global post-hoc explanations, presented in the form of decision trees. In particular, we introduce Trepan Reloaded, which builds on Trepan, an algorithm that extracts surrogate decision trees from black-box models. Trepan Reloaded includes ontologies, that model domain knowledge, in the process of extracting explanations to improve their understandability. We tested the understandability of the extracted explanations by humans in a user study with four different tasks. We evaluate the results in terms of response times and correctness, subjective ease of understanding and confidence, and similarity of free text responses. The results show that decision trees generated with Trepan Reloaded, taking into account domain knowledge, are significantly more understandable throughout than those generated by standard Trepan. The enhanced understandability of post-hoc explanations is achieved with little compromise on the accuracy with which the surrogate decision trees replicate the behaviour of the original neural network models

Efek Preventif Kefir Pada Mencit (Musmusculus) Balb-C Yang Diinduksi Ovalbumin Terhadap Kadar Relatifsel T Cd4 Dan Il-10 Pada Organ Limpa
Alergi adalah suatu respon tubuh yang berlebihan terhadap antigen
(alergen) dan termasuk salah satu reaksi hipersensitivitas tipe 1 yang diperantarai
oleh sel limfosit dengan protein terlarut sitokin. Upaya pencegahan alergi dapat
dilakukan dengan pemberian kefir karena kefir mengandung bakteri asam laktat,
khamir dan bioaktif peptida.Penelitian ini menggunakan metode eksperimental
laboratorikpost control onlydesign dengan metode Rancangan Acak Lengkap
(RAL). Mencit balb/c dibagi menjadi 5 kelompok dengan 4 ulangan. Kelompok
kontrol (-) adalah mencit sehat diberikan placebo NaCl fisiologis per oral
(0,5ml/ekor) pada hari ke 8-21. Kelompok kontrol (+), P1, P2 dan P3 diberikan
ovalbumin dengan dosis 20 μg/ekor secara IP pada hari ke-15 dan 22 selanjutnya
diinduksi kembali OVA pada hari ke-29per oral (60 mg/ekor). Kelompok P1, P2
dan P3 diberikan preventif kefir dengan dosis bertingkat yaitu 300 mg/kgBB, 600
mg/kgBB,dan 900 mg/kgBB pada hari ke 8-21. Nekropsi dilakukan pada hari ke
30 dan diambil organ limpa untuk menghitung kadar relatif sel T CD4 dan IL-10
dengan flowcytometry. Data hasil flowcytometry bersifat kuantitatif selanjutnya
dianalisis menggunakan ujiOne Way ANOVA dan dilanjutkan dengan uji Tukey
pada α= 0.05. Pada penelitian ini, pemberian kefir pada dosis 900 mg/Kg BB
selama 14 hari merupakan dosis efektif dalam menurunkan kadar relatif sel T
CD4 dan IL-10 pada mencit BALB-c yang diinduksi ovalbumin. Kesimpulan
dalam penelitian ini adalah kefir dapat menurunkan reaksi inflamasi akibat
induksi ovalbumin

Transmission Control Protocol
This document describes the DoD Standard Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). There have been nine earlier editions of the ARPA TCP specification on which this standard is based, and the present text draws heavily from them. There have been many contributors to this work both in terms of concepts and in terms of text. This edition clarifies several details and removes the end-of-letter buffer-size adjustments, and redescribes the letter mechanism as a push functio
