furthest tocompletion, with electrical design being lowest and equal to plumbing. An unexpected result was how manytake their designs to a construction document (CD) level of completeness (Fig. 2b). This could be partiallydue to a team’s ability to go to that level of refinement, or perhaps certain key parts of a discipline’ssystem(s) are developed to that extent while other parts are not. For example, a team may design a singlestructural connection but not all of them in the building. To provide some literature context, most capstoneshave students target a level of completeness of their project somewhere between SD and DD [18-19]. a) covered within the capstone b) completeness of student work

Extraverts gain their energy from external sources and thrive on social interaction, while introverts find solace in their inner world and prefer reflection. • Sensing (S) – Intuition (N): This aspect relates to how individuals process information. Sensing types rely on concrete details and present realities, while intuitive types prioritize abstract concepts and future possibilities. • Thinking (T) – Feeling (F): This dimension highlights decision-making styles.

We finetuned the Mixtral of Experts (MoE) [30]model using input and target pairs derived from the manually-coded training datasets. Thistrained model was then prompted with new test inputs, and the model-generated coded sequencewas evaluated against the manually coded target sequence. We evaluated both models on a testset of around 140 samples for each thermodynamics question. Using manual and languagemodel-based coding, we aim to answer two research questions: 1.

Importantly,they reflect Keynes (1936) argument that socioeconomics are group mentalities that organizepeople’s positions amongst society. Keynes (1936) illustrated that individuals with similar incomeslive together (household) or near one another (neighborhood/school) and likely have a similaroccupation. Given these features, we consider the following relational socioeconomic factors:1. Family/household income, occupation, and education are representations of the total, combinatory income(s), prestige, or educational status of the household. Household socioeconomic status has also been inferred based on what

We run a mobile deep learning model, SSD-MobileNet, on Raspberry Pi todetect various objects. Preliminary valudation results demonstrate the effectiveness of thisimplementation. Moreover, the on-going work is to improve weapon detection. Future work will focuson completing comprehensive and systematical validation on weapon detection in different testingscenarios.

A 3-feet-long integratedPZT strip of 18 thin-film PZT cells was placed in the middle of the EGP. The prototype of the EGPwas tested using an output load of 7.5 kΩ. A bicycle with a rider weighing a total of about 142pounds served as the mechanical pressure source for the test. The tested PZT cells produced anaverage of 68 VDC, and the energy of the DCPR was 616.53 mW/s for the rider riding the bike onthe EGP.

In somecases, steps three and four are skipped, and only one round of interviews is completed. The faculty hiring process is fraught with bias, including racial bias [1], gender bias inletters of recommendation [2], and search committee members seeking to hire people whoseresearch areas are most similar to their own [3]. Hiring people similar to oneself extends beyondresearch areas. Many search committees look for candidates who would be a good “fit”(generally, scientifically, programmatically) [4, 5]. However, “fit” is highly subjective and opento the evaluator’s personal biases

remains a dominantideology in public opinion, professional practice, academic policy, and law in the U. S. today [1].The legal definition of disability in the U. S. exemplifies the medical model. Section 3 of theAmericans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and its 2008 amendment defines disability, with respectto an individual, as “(A) a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more ofthe major life activities of such individual; (B) a record of such an impairment; or (C) beingregarded as having such an impairment” [34]. The second model, called the social model ofdisability, emerged in the late 20th century [15] and has quickly become a widespreadepistemology in disability studies [35]. The social model posits disability as a
