Ferramenta para qualificar a Complexidade Cognitiva do código utilizando a técnica Cognitive Driven Development
type: item
description: ABSTRACT This work proposed the development of an extension for Visual Studio Code, which supports the PHP programming language, using the Cognitive Driven Development (CDD) method to identify the cognitive complexity of the source code. The extension helps the developer to locate code snippets with unnecessary complexity, encouraging the application of refactoring techniques and good code design practices. For this purpose, research related to CDD was analyzed and the necessary parameters for the creation of a configuration file in JSON were defined. Due to the limitation of the VS Code API, which does not provide the AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) of the code, it was decided to integrate the Php-parser library, written in JavaScript, which proved to be compatible with the Typescript development environment. The tool was validated through tests on a real project, comparing its performance before and after refactoring. In the initial analysis, the extension correctly identified the critical points that needed improvement. After refactoring, a reduction in the identified complexity was observed, evidencing the effectiveness of the tool, even when applied to a small project. In summary, the extension proves to be an effective solution for automating the identification of cognitive complexity, contributing to more efficient software development and continuous maintenance of source code.

Filtro de Kalman Modificado (FKM) para o Controle Ótimo de Tremores Parkinsonianos
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Parkinson’s disease and other neurological disorders often manifest with involuntary tremors, significantly impacting quality of life. This study proposes the Modified Kalman Filter for tremor attenuation, proposing a novel modification to enhance its performance in hand vibration control. Despite the advancements in adaptive algorithms and deep learning models for tremor mitigation, challenges such as data acquisition and implementation in wearable devices persist. By leveraging the Kalman Filter’s ability to estimate system states, we aim to develop a more effective and accessible solution for individuals with tremors. Our findings demonstrate that the Modified Kalman Filter can achieve significant tremor reduction, when compared to Kalman Filter, paving the way for future research in wearable assistive technologies and brain-computer interfaces.

Sistema de Localização Baseado em Comunicação por Luz Visível Utilizando a Técnica de Impressão Digital
type: item
description: ABSTRACT This paper proposes an indoor localization system for Visible Light Communication (VLC) systems, using LED lamps as light sources to determine the position of a receiver. The proposed method is based on the fingerprinting technique, which uses prior measurements of patterns in the environment and compares them with real-time measurements to determine the location of a receiver. Specifically, the proposal uses multiple light irradiation patterns, one for each lamp, to improve accuracy and reduce ambiguities in position determination. The preliminary results presented in this paper demonstrate the effectiveness of the method, while the proposed implementation reduces the computational complexity involved in the search process.

Predição de Diabetes Utilizando Modelos de Machine Learning
type: item
description: Abstract This study investigates the application of supervised learning algorithms to predict the incidence of diabetes, leveraging easily accessible data such as demographic information and health indicators to identify the most effective approaches for early disease detection. The primary goal is to compare the performance of different classification models in this task. The experimental results considered three classification methods, namely: K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Logistic Regression, and Support Vector Machine (SVM). Due to the imbalanced distribution of the classes (presence or absence of diabetes), besides obtaining decent accuracy values, the recall of all methods was highly impacted. The continuation of this work will include: i) adding more classification methods to the experiment, such as neural networks and ensemble-based methods; ii) compare the obtained results with the literature; and iii) consider the impact of data pre-processing steps to mitigate the class imbalance.

Reconhecimento de Voz Aplicado ao Jogo de Xadrez Usando a Plataforma Arduino
type: item
description: Abstract Chess is a strategic game that enhances cognitive skills, yet its physical demands can exclude players with motor disabilities. This study presents a voice recognition system that enables chess piece movement through verbal commands, enhancing accessibility. The proposed solution integrates the VoiceRecognitionV3 module with the Arduino Uno to recognize spoken commands related to game actions. The methodology involves training the system to interpret a structured set of voice commands, organizing the chessboard into quadrants for efficient processing. Initial tests confirm the feasibility of voice-controlled chess interactions, demonstrating potential benefits for accessibility. However, limitations include the module’s constraint of recognizing only seven commands simultaneously and the necessity for user-specific voice training. Future improvements may involve integrating advanced speech recognition algorithms and machine learning to expand command recognition and adaptability. This research highlights the potential of voice recognition in interactive and inclusive gaming environments.

Amostragem Esparsa e Codificação VVC: Uma proposta para Compressão de Dados de Light Fields
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Light field imaging has increasingly gained attention in the research community for its ability to provide a richer and more complete representation of visual scenes by capturing both spatial and angular information. However, the massive data volume generated by light field images poses significant challenges in terms of storage and transmission, particularly in bandwidth-limited or real-time environments. This work proposes a novel approach for compressing light field data by integrating Sparse Sampling techniques with the Versatile Video Coding (VVC) standard. The proposed method leverages the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) to generate a sparse representation of light field sub-aperture images, followed by random sparse sampling to reduce the dimensionality of the data. A reconstruction process using orthogonal matching pursuit ensures high-fidelity recovery of the light field prior to VVC encoding. The performance of the proposed solution is evaluated using samples of the HCI Dataset, and results demonstrate significant reductions in data size while maintaining visual quality in up to 38db (PSNR) and 0,95 SSIM. The integration of sparse sampling and VVC coding demonstrates promising results for light field compression, enabling its deployment in high-speed communication networks.

Diálogos sobre Mulheres em STEAM Uma Perspectiva Crítica
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Women participation in technology is one of the most important topics that leads to the problem of gender equality in a group where male presence clearly prevails. It is also a matter that appears in the metrics of ONU of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) proposed in 2015 proving it as a real society issue. The modern computation world was built through numerous important feminine efforts and discoveries throughout history. Even so, the majority of men in the field expose a strange phenomenon, where women are the minority in the area nowadays. One of the ways to mitigate that is to empower and encourage girls and women of all ages to enter and explore more subjects in technology and computer science and show them they’re capable of doing everything despite their gender.

Assessing the Feasibility of a Spatio-Temporal Approach for Recognizing Microorganisms in Image Sequences
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Data classification is one of the main challenges in data mining and knowledge discovery. It is widely explored in multiple applications, such as identifying microorganisms by analyzing images of cultures grown in Petri dishes. This work proposes to chronologically organize images of bacteria on solid media, captured at equidistant intervals over several days, treating them as video frames to improve the recognition of these microorganisms. To this end, we develop an approach that chains classification models, integrating spatial features from pre-trained convolutional neural networks with temporal information propagated through target meta-features, i.e., classifier outputs.We experimentally compared our proposal with two intentionally designed baseline methods using a dataset with 240 images, 48 per class, and considering the macro-averaged F1 score. Results demonstrate that addressing chronological relations enhances the identification models’ performance, even though baseline strategies may benefit from fewer examples.

Revisão Sistemática sobre o Uso de Radares FMCW para Monitoramento Sem Fio de Sinais Vitais para Aplicações em Internet das Coisas Médicas
type: item
description: ABSTRACT This work presents a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) for contactless vital signs monitoring based on the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). This SLR aims to search for relevant studies that use Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radars to estimate the breath and heart rate of a target while having Internet of Things (IoT) connectability. We utilized the PICO methodology to retrieve 34 articles, and through inclusion and exclusion criterias, we filtered this result to 5 articles. From these articles, the two main points observed are the continuous growth of studies that use contactless methods for vital signs monitoring in recent years and the surprising lack of devices with IoT or IoMT compatibility, in which several articles only cite the technology but don’t elaborate concrete steps for its implementation. This made us realize the opportunity for future works and research to create and implement IoMT technologies with contactless vital signs monitoring.

Inteligência Artificial na Execução Fiscal transformação tecnológica e governança regulatória
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Tax enforcement is one of the biggest challenges facing the Brazilian Judiciary due to the large number of processes and the complexity of credit recovery. This study explores how Artificial Intelligence (AI), by automating repetitive tasks and assisting in decision making, can increase the efficiency and speed of tax executions in the context of Brazil, while at the same time presenting risks and limitations, such as the possibility of algorithmic biases and lack of transparency in automated decisions. The methodology adopted in this work was an integrative literature review with the analysis of scientific articles and reports that investigate the impact of Artificial Intelligence techniques on tax enforcement. The results reveal that, although Artificial Intelligence has the potential to transform tax enforcement, increasing effectiveness in credit recovery and optimizing procedural management, its implementation still faces obstacles, such as the need for regulation and technological integration with judicial systems. existing. It is concluded that, for AI to be applied effectively and ethically, it is essential to develop a robust regulatory framework that ensures continuous human supervision, transparency of algorithms and the protection of rights. Thus, the study suggests that the combination of technological innovation with adequate governance is essential to maximize the benefits of AI and mitigate its restrictions in the context of tax executions.

Classificação de Aves Predadoras: Fine-tuning Progressivo em Redes Neurais Convolucionais
type: item
description: Abstract This paper presents a process for classifying predatory birds by family and species. The motivation for this study arises from the high variability observed among birds of different species and the importance of performing classification efficiently and in a timely manner. Additionally, this work aims to analyze the impact of using RGB channels in comparison to grayscale images on classification performance, as well as the effect of applying data augmentation techniques during training. The dataset contains 42,475 images, distributed across 6 families and 41 species. The process employs fine-tuning, using the ResNet-50 model. Early stopping was applied to control overfitting and obtain the best model. The test results highlight the effectiveness of the proposed process in classification tasks, with performance varying across different input configurations. For species classification, the model trained with grayscale channels achieved an F1-Score of 0.80. Using RGB channels improved the performance significantly, resulting in an F1-Score of 0,86. Further applying data augmentation techniques to the RGB slightly improved the metrics, achieving an F1-Score of 0.87. These results demonstrate the benefits of incorporating color information and data augmentation in enhancing classification accuracy.

Regularização em Redes Neurais com Reamostragem de Dados para Monitoramento Urbano Inteligente
type: item
description: Abstract The advancement of smart cities has led to a growing demand for efficient urban management systems, such as parking space management. In this context, regularization has proven to be an essential technique for improving the generalization of deep learning models. This paper proposes a regularization method based on the use of smaller data subsets across multiple epochs with resampling, aiming to balance model learning and reduce the risk of overfitting. Using the MobileNetV3-Small, four experiments were conducted with the PKLot and CNRPark-EXT datasets. The results indicate that the proposed method achieved competitive results while utilizing only a fraction of the original data during training. By employing these strategies, it was possible to reduce the data required per epoch by up to 97%, while maintaining an average accuracy close to 89%. Furthermore, training with the PKLot dataset highlighted the positive impact on model robustness when using datasets with greater diversity and quantity. This study underscores the importance of new regularization approaches to enhance the efficiency and generalization of deep learning models in urban applications.

Avaliação In-Domain e Cross-Domain em Restauração de Pontuação utilizando Processamento de Linguagem Natural
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Punctuation plays a fundamental role in conveying the correct meaning in written texts. As a result, punctuation errors can occur, significantly impairing the way a message is interpreted, whether in formal or informal contexts. In this sense, the use of machine learning, combined with recent techniques in natural language processing, has been widely used in the task of punctuation restoration, in languages such as English. However, despite the wide application of this task in other languages, its use in Portuguese is still quite limited. In this work, we propose to adapt a punctuation restoration model for its application in formal texts in the Portuguese language, in addition to evaluating the model’s behavior in informal texts. The Portuguese Legal Sentences v3 dataset was used to train the model, which was also used for the in-domain evaluation. Regarding the cross-domain evaluation, the IWSLT (International Workshop on Spoken Language Translation) database was used, consisting of transcripts of lectures known as TED Talks. The results indicate that the model with the largest amount of training data and that mapped all question marks to full stops performed satisfactorily in the formal context, suggesting that the methodology adopted was adequate for the proposed task. Furthermore, it was found that the scarcity of question marks negatively impacts the model’s performance and that, in the informal context, the results were unsatisfactory in the evaluation metrics, suggesting that formal and informal sentences have their own structures, which the model was unable to generalize adequately in the informal context.

Avaliação de Abordagens para Classificação de Malware Bancário sob a presença de Concept Drift
type: item
description: Abstract Financial malware is an increasing threat due to the potential of profit for cybercriminals. Year after year, the arms race between malware developers and security professionals foster the release of millions of malware variants. Although machine learning techniques have been successfully applied to malware classification tasks, the occurrence of concept drifts requires constant updates (or even retraining) of these models. In this work, we evaluate how distinct machine learning training approaches for malware classification when we consider the arrival flow of samples as a data stream. We also observe the manifestation of concept drift in an actual dataset comprised of thousands of financial malware samples, discussing different incremental learning approaches to deal with a custom dataset and how concept drift can arise in malware data.

Classificação de Cenários Acústicos em Dispositivos Auditivos: Uma Revisão Sistemática da Literatura sobre Desafios, Avanços e Perspectivas
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Acoustic Scene Classification (ASC) is an area of growing relevance, with applications ranging from assistive devices, such as hearing aids, to advanced wearable technologies (hearables). This paper presents a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) that analyzes the main adaptive and machine learning-based methods used in ASC, with a focus on hearing devices. The challenges related to computational resource limitations, energy consumption and real-time operation, especially in dynamic environments, are discussed. The review highlights recent advances, such as the use of generative probabilistic models and convolutional neural networks, as well as hybrid approaches that combine cloud computing and edge computing for greater efficiency. The results show that, despite significant progress, there are still important technical barriers, such as the need for more efficient, customizable and robust algorithms to operate in real conditions. This study contributes by identifying gaps in the literature and suggesting future directions to improve the integration of ASC in hearing devices.

Diferenciando o Não Diferenciável: Investigando problemas na diferenciação da ReLU no treinamento de modelos de Aprendizado Profundo
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Activation functions are necessary for deep learning models to be able to represent non-linear relationships. Their derivative is required during training, however, many non differentiable activation functions are commonly used in neural networks, such as the Rectified Linear Unit (ReLU) and its variants. This paper discusses the impact of non differentiability on activation functions during the training phase, and how these functions compare to differentiable alternatives. To analyse this problem, we trained neural networks in an image classification problem using various activation functions. We showed that non-differentiable points occur rarely during training, especially in deep models, and have little to no negative impact in a model’s performance.

Análise de Escalabilidade para Armazenamento e Processamento de Arquivos de Áudio Utilizando Transformers
type: item
description: ABSTRACT In a continental-sized country like Brazil, collecting feedback on governmental services such as education, healthcare, and security is challenging and impractical to perform manually, except through sampling techniques. With advancements in machine learning, particularly models based on transformers, it is now possible to automate this process on a large scale, enabling, for instance, the dissemination of health campaign information or the collection of citizen opinions on recently used services. This paper focuses on speech-to-text transcription, a crucial step for enabling largescale voice-based responses.We explored scalability challenges and evaluated combinations of transcription models and audio formats (WAV, FLAC, and MP3), aiming to balance the computational cost and transcription quality. Our results showed that MP3 files sampled at 14 kHz provide transcription quality comparable to WAV files sampled at 16 kHz while requiring only 11% of the storage size. Furthermore, we demonstrated that smaller models, such as Wav2Vec2-XLSR-53 with 3.17 × 108 parameters, can achieve results similar to larger models, such as Seamless M4T, which has approximately an order of magnitude more parameters.

Detecção e Classificação de Documentos contendo Macros Maliciosas com base em Processamento de Linguagem Natural
type: item
description: Abstract Macros are functions written in Visual Basic for automation within MS Office documents. On the one hand, macros bring many facilities to home users and organizations. On the other hand, they have also stimulated the arise of macro viruses (malware that exploit macros to infect users loading compromised documents, spreadsheets, and presentations). Those viruses may delete data and steal information, and have been causing losses of billions of dollars in global attacks. Although more prevalent in the 1990s and 2000s, macro viruses resurged in the last decade and continue to threat current MS Windows/Office users. In this article, we present a natural language processing-based pipeline to detect macros in MS Office documents and classify them in malicious or benign. Using byte2vec as document representation, we outperform the state-ofthe- art in Macro detection, reaching over 99% of Precision-Recall Area Under Curve (PRAUC) metric for four out of seven evaluated classifiers (and over 98% PRAUC in the remaining three classifiers).

Machine Learning-based Method to Label Signals from People with Neurological Injuries
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Interfaces that use sEMG signals face the challenge of correctly identifying the signal while distinguishing it from noise or interference. Although classical techniques like visual inspection and machine learning methods exist, most studies focus on signals from healthy individuals. There is a lack of data and methods suitable for signals from individuals with neurological conditions, such as cerebral palsy and post-stroke. This study analyzes sEMG data from individuals with neurological injuries, using machine learning methods to identify muscle contractions and rest without pre-processing. The data were acquired from people with neurological diseases, such as cerebral palsy and post-stroke. They were extracted using sEMG from triceps brachii and extensor carpi radialis muscles. The signals were not preprocessed and were input as segmented time windows to three proposed classifiers: Support Vector Machine, Random Forest and an Ensemble Voting classifier. All three classifiers reached around 99% accuracy and F1-Score on typical sEMG data, but the results on abnormal data were inconclusive.

Agrupamento de usuários e organizações para verificação de viabilidade de distinção comportamental de uso de sistemas com base em aplicações e tempo
type: item
description: Abstract Authentication mechanisms are still the standard way to allow access to systems and devices within an organization. Through credentials (login and password) and other associated methods (multi-factor authentication, such as tokens, biometrics, or onetime passwords sent to additional devices), access control is implemented, and user activity across different necessary systems is recorded. However, organizations are concerned that access control may be bypassed due to the loss or theft of authentication information/ devices, potentially leading to intellectual property breaches through industrial espionage. In this context, User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) has been studied and applied to profile users and identify anomalous patterns that could, for example, block a user from accessing another account. However, achieving this level of protection in real-world systems may be unfeasible. This article examines the feasibility of distinguishing user behavior in organizations based on the most frequently used applications and their usage time. To this end, a real dataset was collected, consisting of data from over 700 organizations and nearly 60,000 users between March and September 2024. The results discuss the techniques used, the possibility of detecting real intruder users, and the false alarm rates observed in the dataset, paving the way for future research in the field.

Synthetic Images Impact in Parking Spot Classification using Neural Networks
type: item
description: Abstract Urban growth and the increasing number of vehicles have intensified the demand for efficient parking management solutions. In this context, machine learning-based image monitoring systems have gained prominence due to their low cost and ease of installation compared to traditional methods, such as physical sensors. These systems achieve an average accuracy of 95% in cross-validation scenarios using well-known datasets like PKLot and CNRPark-EXT. However, despite the availability of extensive datasets, challenges remain regarding the accessibility and diversity of training data. This is especially critical when aiming to improve the accuracy of generalist models or specialize them for specific scenarios, where each application requires a substantial effort to collect, segment, and label new images for optimal performance. This study proposes the use of synthetic images, generated with the Unity 5 graphics engine and the Unity Perception package, to complement or replace real data in training parking classification models. A synthetic image generation protocol was developed to reduce costs compared to the collection, segmentation, and labeling of real images. The images generated through this protocol are referred to as low-fidelity due to their lower quality and reduced capacity to simulate specific environments. Using MobileNetV3 and transfer learning, experiments were conducted in three scenarios: total replacement of real data, supplementation of diverse datasets, and specialization for specific scenarios. The results showed that synthetic images could improve model generalization by up to 2% in datasets with limited real data (e.g., CNRPark-EXT). However, synthetic images alone could not fully replace real data due to their limited fidelity in replicating real-world conditions, reinforcing the need for combinations with real data or more realistic synthetic data for better results.

Integrating Computer Vision with Embedded Intelligent Agents
type: item
description: Abstract In the current technological landscape, we are transitioning to a lifestyle shaped and supported by advanced artificial intelligence systems. In this context, there is a growing tendency to decentralize such systems, moving them to the edge, and placing more responsibility on the devices that compose these systems. The field of Multi- Agent Systems offers a powerful paradigm for distributed artificial intelligence, where intelligent agents can incorporate a variety of AI techniques to make autonomous decisions. In this work, we propose an approach for implementing embedded autonomous intelligent agents. We propose an architecture to implement autonomous intelligent agents embedded in simple microcontrollers, and as a case study, we describe the integration of computer vision, in which agents are capable of extracting information from computer vision components and utilizing this data in their decision-making processes.

Uma análise de múltiplos critérios do Problema de Roteamento de Veículos usando o AEMMT.
type: item
description: Abstract The following work presents a resolution of the Vehicle Routing Problem, focusing on fuel distribution, using Evolutionary Algorithms, which is a bio-inspired Artificial Intelligence technique. The study examines the behavior of a monoobjective version compared to the ‘MultiObjective Evolutionary Algorithm with Many Tables’ (AEMMT, in portuguese), which operates simultaneously with different subpopulations, where each one is dedicated to minimizing a specific objective function. Therefore, the objective is to determine which of the two produces the best results when considering several factors such as distance, time and fuel. As a result, in this work the version algorithm with many objectives proved to be superior to the single-objective version in relation to the value of the improvement brought, especially analyzing the evolutionary behavior of each criterion.

Conjunto de Dados para Envenenamento de Modelos Baseados em Self-Training em Fluxo de Dados
type: item
description: Abstract In problems with a large volume of unlabeled data, semi-supervised learning techniques, such as self-training, are attractive because they make full use of the data and do not require extensive labeling of the data, since it is an expensive process. However, using pseudolabels to train a model indiscriminately can lead to undue changes in the model’s decision boundary, which can happen unintentionally or intentionally, such as in malware classification, where attackers want to classify malicious software as benign. In this paper, we propose a dataset for poisoning models based on self-training that simulates a data stream, intending to evaluate the robustness of these models against intentional or unintentional poisoning by unlabeled instances. Our experiments use models from the MOA-SS framework, and show that models that use incremental training and prediction confidence as a criterion for using the unlabeled instance in training are more susceptible to poisoning.

Análise de Classificadores para Predição de Evasão em um Curso Superior de Tecnologia da Informação de um Instituto Federal
type: item
description: Abstract School dropout has been a long-standing issue in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), raising concerns and prompting mitigation efforts. This paper examines dropout in a Technology course at a Federal Institute, addressing the research question: "How can machine learning classifiers assist in predicting student dropout?". The study applies machine learning classifiers using data from a Federal Institute, including demographic (age group, income, city, special needs, ethnicity, gender) and academic variables (admission method, vacancy type, enrollment status). The objective is to develop analyses ranging from descriptive statistics to predictive modeling. The classifiers used include Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, Logistic Regression, Gradient Boosting, AdaBoost, and K-Nearest Neighbors. The goal is to support teachers, coordinators, and administrators in implementing preventive measures such as personalized mentoring, continuous monitoring, and institutional policies to improve academic infrastructure and inclusivity. The results show that Support Vector Machine, Gradient Boosting, and AdaBoost achieved the best performance, with F1-measure values between 0.6 and 0.8, demonstrating their predictive capability. This highlights the potential of machine learning in addressing student dropout in higher education.

Bird Apprehension Forecasting with XGBoost
type: item
description: ABSTRACT This article applied exploratory data analysis (EDA) and time series forecasting using extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) to bird apprehension data from the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA) covering 2010 to 2024, the dataset processed included 150,000 records, filtered to focus on significant patterns across two distinct periods: a COVID-19 pre-pandemic period (2010-2020) and a period that includes the COVID-19 pandemic (2014-2024). This analysis identified shifts in apprehension patterns with an overall decrease of 69.17% in bird apprehensions during the pandemic. The XGBoost model demonstrated satisfactory root mean squared error (RMSE) on most of the species except on Zenaida auriculata and Zenaida auriculata noronha where the RMSE values were 37.73 and 47.80, respectively, for the (2010–2020) period, while for the (2014–2024) period, the RMSE values were 42.93 and 48.76, which are higher values when compared to other results. The most apprehended bird species prepandemic was Sicalis flaveola with 163, 437 apprehensions, while Zenaida auriculata and Zenaida auriculata noronha remained highly apprehended throughout both periods. The northeast regions of Brazil, with states like Rio Grande do Norte, Ceará and Paraíba, showed the highest apprehension rates. Overall, the model achieved satisfactory performance in understanding the pattern of apprehension numbers in the tested periods, with significantly low RMSE values for the ten most apprehended species.

Determinação de Riscos de Sobrevoo por Visão Computacional
type: item
description: Abstract In the 20th century, aviation has proven itself as one of the most important techno-social revolutions of modern human history. Now, Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) are on the verge of leading the next techno-social revolution, remodelling several areas and moving a global market that does not stop growing. The establishment of UAV Traffic Management (UTM) systems is necessary to make this revolution happen, and one of the main obstacles is the risks involved in UAS flight, especially in urban environments. A methodology to estimate risks on the overflown environment was carried out by the usage of convolutional neural networks on the imagery of such environments, allowing the definition of safer routes and their management on the fly. Development and experimentation processes were carried out, with promising results including a convolutional neural network for pixel-wise domain that was capable of estimate risks from satellite imagery and return overflight risks heat maps.

Algoritmo para a Minimização do uso de Recipientes no Problema do Empacotamento Bidimensional com Restrições de Guilhotina
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Cutting and packing problems are prevalent in various industries, logistics, and the construction sector. Therefore, the study of this class of problems is justified due to its potential to reduce material wastage and associated costs, among other benefits. This paper presents a study aimed at minimizing the number of bins required to pack all items in the rectangular two-dimensional variable-sized bin packing problem. This problem involves guillotine constraints without rotations. The heuristics ILS and a modified BCSA were implemented. After conducting preliminary tests, the use of ILS was discarded, and only the proposed modified BCSA was employed to obtain results. To validate the performance and quality of the developed algorithm, various experiments were conducted on benchmark instances from the literature, including the dataset of [1], dataset of [2], and dataset of [3], and compared with several other heuristics. Consequently, it was found that the modified BCSA applied in this work achieved excellent results in most classes, with an average improvement of 14.6% over the compared heuristics in the first dataset and 14.08% in the second.

Análise Temporal e Predição de Nutricionistas no Ceará: Abordagens em Ciência de Dados para Suporte à Gestão em Saúde
type: item
description: ABSTRACT A ciência da nutrição ganhou destaque no início do século XX, sendo considerada um fenômeno recente no Brasil. A formação de profissionais de nutrição iniciou-se na década de 1940, com a criação dos primeiros cursos de graduação profissionalizante e o surgimento dos médicos nutricionistas. Em outubro de 2024, o Ceará contabilizava 1.623 nutricionistas registrados na base de dados do CNES, totalizando 2.028 vínculos, este trabalho apresenta uma análise temporal com o objetivo de quantificar o estado atual da distribuição dos profissionais de nutrição no estado do Ceará e suas perspectivas futuras, considerando especialidades e áreas de atuação. Os dados foram organizados em tabelas em que foi possível avaliar as flutuações dos vínculos empregatícios dos profissionais de saúde no estado em diferentes períodos. Adicionalmente, foram testados diferentes modelos de aprendizado de máquina para prever a evolução dos vínculos de nutricionistas ao longo do tempo. O modelo ExponentialSmoothing destacou-se como a abordagem mais precisa, apresentando os menores valores de erro, como MAE de 30,87 e MAPE de 2,1%. Esses resultados demonstram a eficácia desse modelo para capturar padrões temporais e sazonais na força de trabalho. Os achados reforçam a relevância de ferramentas preditivas no suporte à tomada de decisão estratégica, permitindo aos gestores de saúde otimizar a alocação de recursos, reduzir desigualdades regionais e planejar políticas públicas fundamentadas em evidências.

Avaliação de Interface em Aplicativo para Medição de Nível de Atividade Física Baseado no IPAQ da OMS
type: item
description: Abstract Due to globalization and digitalization, there has been a huge increase in the number of mobile applications being developed. This makes the user experience and usability of apps a topic of interest. This study evaluates an app based on the World Health Organization’s International Physical Activity Questionnaire using Jakob Nielsen’s heuristics as a framework, aiming to evaluate the final users perception of usability. The following ten criteria were considered: visibility of system statuses; correspondence between the real world and the system; user control and freedom; consistency and standards; error prevention; recognition rather than recall; flexibility, and efficiency of use; aesthetic and minimalist design; helping users to recognize, diagnose, and recover from errors; and finally, help and documentation. Therefore, the metology used in this article made possible to evaluate the system - a scientific iniciation’s product - using Nielsen’s heurístics as a baseline of study. In conclusion, this article makes recommendations for changes to the system en route to improve its usability as well the used metodology itself.

Aprimoramento da Classificação de Linfócitos e Monócitos em Imagens Médicas: O Impacto do CLAHE em Redes Neurais Convolucionais
type: item
description: ABSTRACT The human immune system plays a critical role in defending against infections and diseases, with white blood cells (WBCs) being pivotal in these processes. Automated classification of agranulocyte cells, specifically lymphocytes, and monocytes, is essential for accurate diagnostics and treatment monitoring in hematology and oncology. This study evaluates the performance of a convolutional neural network (CNN) model, previously proposed for WBC classification, on public datasets, with and without the use of Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) for image preprocessing. The results show that CLAHE improved classification metrics, achieving up to 82.16% test accuracy on the Paul Mooney dataset and maintaining a high test accuracy of 98.72% on the Uncle Samulus dataset. Metrics such as precision, recall, and F1-score also exhibited notable improvements, reaching up to 98% for lymphocytes and monocytes in the best-performing dataset. These findings highlight CLAHE’s potential to enhance CNN-based classification under varying image conditions.

Impact of Image Enhancement Filters on Road Defect Detection Using Deep Learning
type: item
description: ABSTRACT The maintenance of road pavements is essential to ensuring the safety and efficiency of land transportation. With advancements in artificial intelligence and deep learning, new possibilities have emerged for automating pavement defect detection. However, the quality of the images used to train these models plays a crucial role in their performance, as variations in lighting or high contrast can compromise the precise identification of defects. In this study, we analyzed the impact of image preprocessing techniques on defect detection using a deep learning model. The CLAHE (Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization), LIME (Low-Light Image Enhancement), and gamma adjustment methods were applied, along with unprocessed images. The experiments revealed that the LIME method achieved the best performance, with 78,8% mAP, 91,1% in Precision, 86% in Recall, and an F1 Score of 74%. This study highlights that preprocessing techniques are promising tools for improving the accuracy and reliability of deep learning models applied to the automated detection of defects in asphalt pavement surfaces, significantly contributing to the development of more efficient and accessible pavement management systems.

Proposta de Modelos Leves para Classificação de Vagas de Estacionamentos em Cidades Inteligentes
type: item
description: ABSTRACT In smart cities, a common problem is the parking spots classification into empty and occupied. It may seem simple, but a large number of Deep Learning approaches rely on CNNs (Convolutional Neural Networks). These solutions are commonly expensive, demanding high computational power and specialized hardware to run properly, making them unsuitable for large-scale deployments, such as in smart cities. In this work, we propose two lightweight CNN architectures, built upon existing solutions by enhancing their efficiency and robustness. We used a cross-dataset scenario, where a model is trained and validated in two datasets and tested in another, applying three robust state-of-the-art datasets: PKLot, CNRPark-EXT and PLds. This process improves generalization across different contexts and sets a more realistic scenario when compared to real urban environments. Also, we compared our models to state-ofthe- art networks, such as MobileNetV3 Large and Small to ensure consistency and validate the results with well-explored models in the literature. Our results showed that our models, with up to 34× and 88× fewer parameters than the MobileNetV3 Large, reach less than 2% lower accuracy when compared to the MobileNetV3 networks. Furthermore, by using grayscale images, the results were slightly better and also decreased processing and storage costs.

Exploring Multi-armed Bandits Learning Strategies in the Emergent Web Server
type: item
description: Abstract Self-adaptive systems are designed to modify their architecture or behavior to uphold high-level objectives despite changes in their operating environments. A critical aspect of developing such systems involves creating strategies to handle unexpected events in the operating environments. While this remains an active area of research within the autonomic computing and self-adaptive systems community, one commonly adopted approach is leveraging machine learning techniques, particularly reinforcement learning, to address unforeseen challenges. In this paper, we conduct experiments using the EmergentWeb Server exemplar, a publicly available self-adaptive web server, to investigate various monitoring metrics and implement a multi-armed bandit reinforcement learning approach. This approach enables the system to identify the optimal web server configuration for maximizing performance under varying workload patterns and operating conditions, enabling the system to react to unexpected events that rises from the operating environment with minimum human interference.

Super-Resolução de Imagens em Tomografia Computadorizada de Baixa Dosagem: Comparação entre Métodos de Aprendizado Profundo
type: item
description: Abstract The acquisition of high-resolution medical images is essential for the accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of many diseases. However, obtaining high-resolution images can be limited by factors such as device limitations and patient exposure to radiation. To solve this problem, this study proposes the use of super-resolution techniques based on deep learning to improve the resolution of computerized tomography images without increasing the patient’s exposure to radiation. The LoDoPaB-CT image dataset was used. Five deep learning-based super-resolution techniques - SRCNN, ESRGAN, SwinIR, HAT and DAT - and the traditional FBP method were compared. The evaluation metrics included PSNR, SSIM, LPIPS, NIQE, NRQM and PI. In the tests carried out, the ESRGAN model obtained the best results, outperforming the other techniques in metrics such as SSIM, NIQE and PI. On the other hand, the FBP method showed comparable performance in PSNR, LPIPS and NRQM. These findings underscore the need to fine-tune the models and highlight the potential benefit of involving experts in the subjective analysis process to obtain the best results.

Araucárias: um corpus de árvores sintáticas para o ensino da sintaxe do português brasileiro
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Automatic syntactic parsers can support the teaching of Brazilian Portuguese. However, existing corpora that underpin such parsers are primarily designed for industrial applications rather than for the instruction of the vernacular. In this context, we propose the Araucárias corpus, a collection of syntactic trees derived from well-formed Portuguese sentences. The aim is to demonstrate its relevance for educational purposes in comparison to other existing corpora. Due to its relatively intuitive, simple, and evocative nature—attributes that are absent in the evaluated existing corpora—Araucárias is expected to offer a more viable approach to teaching Portuguese syntax.

Representatividade Feminina na Produção Científica: Análise da Universidade de Maior Destaque no Brasil
type: item
description: ABSTRACT The present study investigated scientific production at the State University of Maringá (UEM), based on the gender of its authors. UEM stands out in scientific research with the presence of women in Brazil and South America, with 53.3% of scientific article authorships featuring female participation, according to the 2023 Leiden Ranking. This prominence contrasts with the prevailing gender inequality in academia in general, as the most recent data from UNESCO, published in 2024, reports that the proportion of women in the field of academic research totals worldwide. This work was motivated by this contrast and analyzed the female presence in UEM’s publications and their representation in productivity grants across fields of knowledge. To this end, the methodology of the Leiden Ranking was reproduced to gather metadata of research produced by the institution during the period considered by the 2023 Leiden Ranking and compare it with data on CNPq productivity grants, categorized by gender and field of knowledge. The data obtained in this study are consistent with the findings of the Leiden Ranking, as 58.8% of the authorships in the considered publications are female. On other hand, only 35.8% of women at UEM held productivity grants during the analyzed period, highlighting a significant gender disparity in scientific production at UEM.

NIEP eXperience: Aprimorando a Usabilidade do Emulador de Redes com Suporte à NFV NIEP
type: item
description: Abstract New networking paradigms have been developed to provide greater flexibility and enable finer-grained management of computer networks. One of the most prominent new network paradigm is the Network Function Virtualization (NFV), which can leverage the NFV Infrastructure Emulation Platform (NIEP) as an environment for prototyping and testing virtualized network functions and services. Despite its versatility and comprehensiveness, NIEP poses a steep learning curve for new users, particularly in the process of specifying virtualized network topologies. To address this challenge, this work proposes NIEPx, an assistive interface designed to simplify topology specification within NIEP while minimizing common errors in the process. The effectiveness of NIEPx was evaluated through a qualitative-quantitative model, which demonstrated its ability to reduce human errors during topology specification. Furthermore, the interface was tested for communication overhead with the NIEP emulator, showing negligible impact in the analyzed scenarios. Thus, NIEPx emerges as an effective solution to facilitate the onboarding of new users to NIEP, while also supporting experienced users in handling more complex network topology specification tasks.

O Cenário Atual de Golpes em Redes Sociais: Uma Revisão da Literatura
type: item
description: Abstract Social networks were conceived as platforms for interaction, content creation and engagement between users. Over time, browsing these networks has become an integral part of everyday life, culminating in billions of profiles created and accessed regularly on various platforms. However, the ease of access and limited control over content by the maintainers have turned social networks into a favorable environment for fraudulent activities, allowing malicious users to act as scammers in search of illicit benefits. Faced with this scenario, academia and industry have dedicated themselves to analyzing and developing methods to identify, detect, prevent and mitigate scams. However, the diversity of scams, many with unique characteristics, requires specific analysis and solutions for each case. In this context, this paper proposes a systematization of social media scams addressed in the literature between 2014 and 2024, defining categories and subcategories based on their methodological characteristics and objectives. The main result is a taxonomy made up of 5 categories and 19 subcategories.

A Dynamic Programming Approach for the Brachistochrone Problem
type: item
description: Abstract In this paper, we address the brachistochrone problem using Dynamic Programming and an extension that accounts for forbidden regions or obstacles. The brachistochrone problem seeks the curve of fastest descent under gravity between two points, minimizing travel time. While traditional approaches derive the cycloidal curve as the solution using calculus of variations, this work employs a discrete, grid-based Dynamic Programming formulation to approximate the optimal trajectory. Computational experiments showcase the method’s flexibility, particularly in adapting to constraints such as forbidden regions, and its ability to dynamically recalculate paths. Despite some limitations in angular resolution due to discretization, the proposed approach demonstrates robustness and scalability in addressing constrained trajectory optimization problems. Moreover, this project lays the groundwork for extending the proposed methodology to more complex scenarios, such as incorporating randomness into the trajectory, where the adaptability of this approach can be effectively leveraged.

DeMONS++: Utilizando Técnicas de Modelagem de Tráfego no Combate de DDoS via Serviço DeMONS
type: item
description: Abstract With the increasing use and popularity of computer networks, data security and online service availability have become priority concerns for academia and industry. One of the significant threats to be prevented, detected, and mitigated is the Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack. With the advancement of new technologies and network paradigms, these attacks have been tackled by innovative solutions such as mitigation services based on Network Function Virtualization (NFV), which was utilized to develop the DeMONS service, a solution for DDoS mitigation. Despite its effectiveness, DeMONS’ results can be enhanced by introducing new traffic engineering modules. In this way, this paper presents DeMONS++, an extension of DeMONS that incorporates a strategically positioned traffic shaping module within its service topology. Experiments conducted in simulated environments demonstrated that DeMONS++ improves DDoS mitigation, achieving better performance in metrics such as benign traffic acceptance and user satisfaction in the tested scenarios.

Ferramenta Interativa para Elaboração de Sistemas Integrados Baseados em Múltiplos Núcleos
type: item
description: Abstract Currently, most computers adopt the System-on-Chip (SoC) approach, integrating various components into a single chip. Traditionally, the interconnection of these components is achieved through buses, which are essential for effective communication. However, as system complexity and performance demands increase, Networks-on-Chip (NoCs) have emerged as a more efficient alternative, offering greater scalability and bandwidth. The integration of SoC components with buses or NoCs remains a challenge, requiring specific adaptations that make the process labor-intensive and prone to errors. This work aims to simplify this integration by developing a graphical interface tool that automates the integration of AXI bus-based components into the XINA NoC. The tool, developed in Python with a Qt interface, was validated using traffic generators and monitors and integrated into the AMD/Xilinx Vivado development environment.

PROV-SwSystem: AWeb System to Capture and Analyze Provenance Data from Software Development Processes
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Data provenance encompasses the description of the origin and historical events of data processing. Although models such as W3C PROV allow capturing and analyzing provenance data, additional methods are required to address software development processes’ specific uses and complexities. In this context, the PROV-SwProcess provenance model was developed to extend W3C PROV. However, the PROV-SwProcess provenance model does not provide a specific tool to enable its instantiation. In this vein, this paper aims to present the PROV-SwSystem - a web-based system to capture, store, and analyze software process data along with their provenance, adhering to the PROV-SwProcess model. To achieve this, the Design Science Research (DSR) methodology was adopted, supporting the system creation, construction, and validation. PROV-SwSystem was implemented using Javascript, Bootstrap, Node.js, and Jquery, encompassing all predefined use cases. Unit tests and system tests were performed, identifying six redundant variables and five redundant functions. In addition, an exploratory usability test was performed with an external user, revealing fifteen navigation issues, eight attempts to register data in inappropriate sections, six registration confirmation failures, and data integration problems. Actions for data entry validation and interface improvements were implemented, enabling the tool’s usage and paving the way for future testing on a larger scale.

Avaliação de Desempenho de Compressão de Páginas Utilizando o ZRAM
type: item
description: ABSTRACT With computers processing an ever-increasing amount of data, expanding DRAM capacity is not always feasible due to economic and structural issues. In this context, memory compression emerges as an alternative provided by the ZRAM module, which expands the DRAM’s data capacity by using a reserved area to store compressed pages directly into the main memory. Therefore, reducing secondary storage accesses caused by page swaps and potentially reducing the program’s execution time. This paper evaluates the ZRAM performance, comparing the speedup obtained when running NAS Parallel Benchmarks under different disksize values for ZRAM, in systems with 8 GB, 4 GB, and 1 GB of DRAM. Also, we compared our baseline system with an older one, to study the effect of the systems improvement over the ZRAM usage impacts. Our results indicate that the impact of ZRAM on the application’s execution time increases with the reduction of the available main memory space. We show no variations in speedup with 8 GB of DRAM, and up to 10% improvement in scenarios with 4 GB of memory. In the 1 GB scenario, compression allowed certain benchmarks to achieve speed increases of up to 39%, even with a low memory footprint application, although most others did not benefit. We conclude that ZRAM has a more pronounced impact in memoryconstrained environments, and can have a significant impact even in applications with a low memory footprint.

HardCore: Detalhando um HIDS por Assinatura em Hardware
type: item
description: Abstract Most Host Intrusion Detection Systems (HIDS) do not count with memory evaluation capabilities, being that the reason why they are not able to detect Advanced Volatile Threats, such as Fileless Malware, which can only be detected via memory scans. In this work, we propose HardCore, a signature based HIDS in hardware, able to perform signature matching with no overhead to the endpoint system. HardCore receives as input, at every memory write, a cache line, outputting any matches against known fileless malware present in the signature base. HardCore uses bloom filters and malware clustering to operate, having its signature matrices divided to obtain the gains originating from those implementation choices.

ConectaMães: Rede social de apoio que auxilia a troca de experiências parentais
type: item
description: Resumo Na atualidade, as redes sociais digitais possuem impacto significativo no modo como o indivíduo enxerga e se apresenta na sociedade. Nesse contexto, a mídia digital possui efeito sobre as relações familiares, podendo repercutir ideias patriarcais, que geram uma pressão pela busca da maternidade perfeita, ou desafiá-las em busca de uma sociedade mais igualitária que não se prenda a padrões de gênero nessas relações. Assim, o presente projeto possui como proposta um sistema web que atue como uma rede social oferecendo um espaço virtual adequado para que mães e outros responsáveis legais possam compartilhar experiências ou atender a pedidos de auxílio relacionados à parentalidade. Inspirado pelo feminismo matricentrico, que destaca narrativas maternas online relacionadas a ressignificar papéis sociais e expor desigualdades estruturais na maternidade patriarcal, o sistema busca promover um ambiente acolhedor. Portanto, o objetivo do sistema é contribuir para a criação de uma rede de apoio virtual significativa, onde aqueles que praticam cuidados parentais possam se sentir acolhidos e confortáveis para compartilhar experiências e encontrar suporte de forma colaborativa.

Avaliação da acessibilidade de um recurso plugado para a promoção do Pensamento Computacional
type: item
description: RESUMO O pensamento computacional (PC) tem sido amplamente empregado em contextos educacionais, especialmente em salas de aula com crianças e adolescentes, com o objetivo de desenvolver habilidades essenciais. Com o propósito de verificar se um recurso plugado de PC pode ser utilizado por todos os estudantes, visto que a acessibilidade digital se apresenta como uma lacuna a ser preenchida, o presente trabalho avaliou a acessibilidade do Blockly Games. O processo de avaliação foi realizado em três etapas: avaliação manual com as diretrizes da WCAG, avaliação automática e avaliação heurística. Com base nos resultados obtidos, constatou-se que essa plataforma não possui os recursos de acessibilidade necessários para a interação de pessoas com necessidades específicas.

Repositório de Ideias Pedagogia Crítica na Educação em Computação
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Em uma sociedade cada vez mais informatizada, torna-se importante que o ensino de Computação não se restrinja apenas ao domínio técnico. Neste sentido, a Pedagogia Crítica e a Aprendizagem Baseada em Projetos são alternativas para uma educação reflexiva e problematizadora. Porém, desenvolver projetos que aliem estas duas abordagens é um desafio. Assim, este artigo apresenta os resultados de um projeto que teve como objetivo desenvolver um repositório digital de projetos para o ensino de Computação com foco na formação cidadã. Com finalidade de avaliar o funcionamento e a viabilidade de utilização do sistema foram categorizados e cadastrados dois projetos oriundos de publicações acadêmicas.

Mistério inFeliz Aprender Criando Jogos
type: item
description: ABSTRACT Este artigo apresenta o jogo digital Mistério inFeliz, desenvolvido em um Clube de Desenvolvimento de Jogos formado por 12 estudantes do curso técnico em Informática de uma instituição pública federal, a partir da abordagem pedagógica de aprender criando jogos. A percepção das pessoas envolvidas no desenvolvimento foi avaliada a partir de respostas a um questionário. Os resultados obtidos indicaram que a experiência foi positiva para o desenvolvimento de habilidades técnicas, mas que precisa de ajustes quanto a distribuição e o acompanhamento das equipes. O jogo também foi avaliado em uma sessão de testes na qual participaram 75 pessoas. O resultado da avaliação apontou para uma boa aceitação do jogo e a necessidade de maiores informações sobre como interagir com os enigmas propostos.

Adog: Aplicativo de Auxílio na Adoção Responsável de Animais
type: item
description: RESUMO O crescente número de animais em condição de vulnerabilidade no Brasil é um problema de bem-estar animal e saúde pública, agravado pela falta de ferramentas eficazes para adoção. ONGs e protetores independentes enfrentam dificuldades na divulgação de animais para adoção, e adotantes potenciais encontram barreiras para localizar e adotar um pet de maneira segura. Adog é um aplicativo móvel projetado para otimizar o processo de adoção, facilitando a conexão entre adotantes e ONGs por meio de perfis detalhados dos animais, filtros de busca e um sistema inteligente de "match". O aplicativo foi desenvolvido com o uso de ferramentas de código aberto, adotando uma abordagem estruturada que incluiu entrevistas com proprietários de ONGs e ativistas da causa animal, além de uma análise comparativa de outras plataformas semelhantes. Atualmente, o Adog está em fase de implantação e testes com usuários. A expectativa é que a plataforma contribua para o aumento das adoções responsáveis, promovendo a conexão eficaz entre adotantes e ONGs, além de ajudar a reduzir os índices de abandono de animais.

MED+ Aplicativo móvel de controle de medicamentos para pessoas em terapia polimedicamentosa do Asilo Santo Antônio (Leopoldina - MG)
type: item
description: RESUMO A utilização de medicamentos é algo comum na vida dos seres humanos, haja vista que o mesmo promove melhorias à saúde dos indivíduos, possibilitando longevidade e qualidade de vida. O objetivo deste trabalho é desenvolver um aplicativo para dispositivos móveis, permitindo o controle dos horários e dosagens de medicamentos por parte dos cuidadores responsáveis pelos idosos institucionalizados, além do índice glicêmico dos mesmos. A motivação inicial para a realização de um sistema voltado para cuidadores de pessoas em terapia polimedicamentosa residentes do Asilo Santo Antônio se deu pela percepção de que os mesmos encontram dificuldades para organizar os diversos tratamentos de maneira eficaz. A metodologia utilizada para consolidar o projeto MED+ se deu por meio de uma entrevista não estruturada com a assistente social e a enfermeira do asilo, localizado na cidade de Leopoldina, Minas Gerais. Dessa forma, foram debatidos problemas enfrentados na instituição para definir as funcionalidades do sistema.

Vintana: uma plataforma para publicação de acervos de rádios
type: item
description: Abstract Since its invention, radio has stood out as a means of communication with a wide reach, promoting interactivity and influencing opinions. In Brazil, its educational function has always been one of its central pillars, providing both entertainment and knowledge. However, many of the historical collections of Brazilian educational radios remain inaccessible to the public due to a lack of proper digitization and preservation. It is in this context that the Vintana project arises, with the aim of making these collections available and democratizing access to them by creating an intuitive and easy-to-navigate digital platform. Focused on researchers, students, and those interested in cultural collections, the platform aims to preserve and value the audiovisual heritage of educational radios, promoting broader and more organized access. Vintana stands out for its proposal to provide an accessible experience, gathering historical content that can be explored efficiently and practically. With a software engineering structure divided into six stages, the project ensures that the entire development process is carried out with a focus on preserving and disseminating content. In this way, it is hoped that the platform will contribute not only to the preservation of the cultural memory of educational radios but also to the dissemination of knowledge and culture, strengthening the importance of educational broadcasting in Brazil and ensuring its legacy for future generations.

Transistoras: A construção de uma plataforma para acolhimento de meninas na área de Informática
type: item
description: ABSTRACT A desigualdade de gênero na área da tecnologia é um problema persistente ainda no século XXI. Nos cursos da área é possível encontrar falta de representatividade feminina e a perpetuação de estereótipos de gênero, influenciando na autoconfiança e impactando na decisão de ingressar ou continuar na área. Muitas ações vêm sendo desenvolvidas no Brasil visando combater esses problemas. O projeto Meninas High-Tech soma-se a essas iniciativas e, a partir de ações de ensino, pesquisa e extensão, identificou a necessidade de espaços de acolhimento para meninas em cursos de Informática. Assim, foi planejada a Plataforma Transistoras, desenvolvida no ambiente Moodle, cujo objetivo é desenvolver um espaço virtual coletivo e seguro para as meninas de um Curso Técnico em Informática Integrado ao Ensino Médio, incentivando o compartilhamento de conhecimento, dúvidas e experiências relacionadas ao curso. Foi desenvolvida uma versão da Plataforma, no ambiente Moodle, oferecendo funcionalidades como: apresentações pessoais, informações sobre as disciplinas, compartilhamento de materiais, fóruns de discussão e um espaço privado. Para engajar as alunas foi implementado o uso da gamificação. A metodologia é baseada na pesquisa-ação, envolvendo a identificação de problemas, reflexão e implementação de medidas para solucioná-los. Uma primeira versão da Plataforma foi disponibilizada para uso e, posteriormente, foram coletados dados para embasar os ajustes.
