New Software to check Fake papers

An End to Fake papers? New Software to check Fake 

papers created

SciDetect is an open source software program for evaluating academic papers. The software discovers text that has been generated with the SCIgen computer program and other fake-paper generators like Mathgen and Physgen.

SciDetect scans Extensible Markup Language (XML) and Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files and compares them against a corpus of fake scientific papers. Using intertextual distance, SciDetect can discover any automatically generated text materials and indicate whether an entire document or its parts are genuine or not. The software relies on sensitivity thresholds to report suspicious activity.

SciDetect is publicly released under the GNU General Public License (GPL), Version 3.0.

To download SciDetect, get a copy of the Git project for the software. For example: git clone https://forge.imag.fr/anonscm/git/scidetect/scidetect.git

Alternatively, you can download a lightweight, stand-alone version of the software.

WEARABLE TECH JOBS OF THE FUTURE

Wearable Tech Jobs

Wearable Technology is a very exciting industry and the sky’s the limit with new possibilities for businesses and consumers. The new technologies will make our lives easier in terms of convenience, while in other ways more complicated due to learning curve of each new product.

Lets take a look at wearable tech in the workplace.

As Dan Price added, “Ultimately, wearable tech in the workplace that is implemented in the right way could lead to a happier, more productive and more motivated workforce. Get it wrong and it could backfire, with employees leaving or sabotaging the system...”

So what will wearable technology look like in the workplace? Included is an infographic byAdeccoUSA which takes a closer look at 7 Wearable Technology Jobs That Will Change The World.

THE BIG DATA MOVEMENT GETS BIGGER

The Big Data Movement

In recent years, Big Data and Cloud relations have been growing steadily. And while there have been many questions raised around how best to use the information being gathered, there is no question that there is a real future between the two. The growing importance of Big Data Scientists and the need for cloud connected APIs will be paramount when looking for efficient ways to securely extract the data from the various SaaS and Cloud based offerings.

An IDG Enterprise Big Data research report takes a look at an organizations’ big data initiatives, investments and strategies.

Some of the key findings include:

• Organizations are seeing exponential growth in the amount of data managed with an expected increase of 76% within the next 12-18 months.
• Companies are intensifying their efforts to derive value through big data initiatives with nearly half (49%) of respondents already implementing big data projects or in the process of doing so in the future; however, enterprise organizations are ahead of the curve in implementation plans compared to SMB organizations.
• CEOs are focused on the value of big data and are partnering with IT executives who will purchase/manage/execute on the strategies.
• Organizations are investing in developing or buying software applications, additional sever hardware, and hiring staff with analytics skills in preparation for big data initiatives.
• Organizations are facing numerous challenges with big data initiatives and limited availability of skilled employees to analyze and manage data tops the list.
• In the next 12-18 months, organizations plan to invest in skill sets necessary for big data deployments, including data scientists (27%), data architects (24%), data analysts (24%), data visualizers (23%), research analysts (21%), and business analysts (21%).
• Half of respondents indicated there is no clear thought leader in the big data solution space.

The Future Of The Emerging M2M

Here at CloudTweaks, most of our coverage is centered around the growing number of exciting and interconnected emerging markets. Wearable, IoT, M2M, Mobile and Cloud computing to name a few. Over the past couple of weeks we’ve talked about Machine to Machine (M2M) such as the differences between IoT and M2M as well as the The Job Future of M2M. And today we will look a little bit further into the opportunities available.

But first, here is a tremendous and well crafted visual produced by the group at ImperialTechForesight from Insect Burger Food Vans to Smart Dust Sensor Networks.

The future of this technology will depend in large part on the advances that are made in the next few years. However, there are many industries which will benefit from having this technology and will expand to exploit it more readily.

HeathCare

This may be the industry that is most affected by M2M for a couple of reasons. Currently, this technology is being used in very creative ways, including having sensors for patients (which we will be discussing in the next day or two) who are vulnerable to having a heart attack. The sensor can detect the signs of an impending cardiac arrest and contact emergency medical services.

In addition, the aging baby boomer population is creating a wealth of new jobs in the health care industry. This massive growth combined with the advancing technology of M2M will means far more opportunities for the jobs related to M2M in the future.

Consumer

Another area where M2M will have a great impact is in the consumer industry where the concepts found in many science fiction films are now becoming reality. When your refrigerator detects that you are low on certain foods and beverages, it will contact your local supermarket and order what is needed and then pay for it using a credit or debit card number.

This type of system can be used with any products that are consumed or used in the home and need to be replaced. The consumer can control the ordering process by having restrictions placed, but the convenience is a great advantage. There will be a growing market of jobs in the M2M field when it comes to consumer-related goods and services.

Indoor Environmental Monitoring

The HVAC industry may soon undergo another revolution that is on par with the introduction of air conditioning to the home. However, the use of M2M will expand beyond just HVAC and involve all the energy applications found within commercial buildings, facilities and perhaps residential homes as well. Recently, Google I/O experimented at the San Francisco Moscone Center by placing over 4,000 environmental sensors that monitored the temperature, air quality, pressure, motion, light and level of noise all through the conference that they held in the structure. The result was a very strong gain in energy efficiency that improving technology will only capitalize on in the near future.

The heavy service based industries for example have relied on field personnel to make troubleshooting visits that can now be replaced with M2M technology that not only senses what adjustments to make, but offers early indications of what machinery may break down so it can be addressed before a major breakdown occurs. Here, those in the HVAC industry along with electricians will gain considerably through the use of this technology.
