看!嫌犯躲在沙發裡,被警方隨身攝錄機拍到

(SeaPRwire) - 英國警方在執行動令時,在一個不太可能的地方找到了他們的嫌疑人,他們稱之為「第一次」,最近在社交媒體上分享的隨身攝像頭畫面顯示了這一點。貝德福德郡警方在臉書上發布了這段影片,目前在該網站上已有超過 138,000 次觀看。在影片中,一名嫌疑人身穿內衣,躲在沙發底部的下方,從背後被拍到。"你看,他躲在沙發裡,"警官對嫌疑人說。"出來吧。""我們見過很多事,但我們必須說,這還是第一次!"貝德福德郡警方在 10 月 11 日的臉書貼文中寫道。根據他們的貼文,Biggleswade 社區警務小組正在執行搜查令,"認為除了友善的狗狗之外,房子裡沒有其他可疑之處"。可能是那隻友善的狗,導致警官發現了嫌疑人,之後他們發現嫌疑人躲在沙發底下,警官將家具從地板上抬起來後。發現嫌疑人只穿著內衣。"我們認為這名男子會更舒服地蜷縮在床上,所以他接下來的幾個小時將會在拘留所裡度過——這樣會少擠一點,"貝德福德郡警方在他們的臉書貼文中繼續寫道。他們影片中最受歡迎的一則留言寫道:"打賭他小時候玩捉迷藏很厲害。"貝德福德郡警方沒有立即回覆 Digital 的置評請求。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

HKTDC welcomes 2024 Policy Address

HONG KONG, Oct 16, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) welcomes the 2024 Policy Address, delivered today by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region’s (HKSAR) Chief Executive John Lee.The Policy Address presents a comprehensive set of measures, ranging from the economy and trade and people’s livelihood to high-calibre talent attraction and youth development. Leveraging Hong Kong’s one country, two systems advantages, the policies will fuel the city’s continued economic growth.Dr Peter K N Lam, Chairman of the HKTDC, said: “The Policy Address highlights the Hong Kong SAR Government’s efforts in seeking innovation and change, while striving for excellence. It addresses a wide range of areas covering economic growth, trade and investment, SME support, culture and creative as well as construction and planning. Riding on Hong Kong’s eight centre advantages, the Policy Address promotes new quality productive forces and high-quality economic development.”The annual address announced various measures to reinforce the city’s status as an international financial, shipping and trading centre. Dr Lam believed the move echoes the 20th Central Committee’s Third Plenary Session’s Resolution to develop Hong Kong into a supply chain service centre: “The HKTDC will continue to proactively promote Hong Kong’s eight centre advantages and enhance the development of high value-added supply chain services. We will step up cooperation with InvestHK to set up a mechanism and enhance the interface for attracting mainland enterprises to establish their international or regional headquarters in Hong Kong and provide one-stop diversified professional advisory services to help them go global via the Hong Kong platform.”He added that the HKTDC will strengthen advisory services of its Transformation Sandbox (T-box) programme to cover a wider range of areas and support Hong Kong enterprises as well as mainland companies in Hong Kong in regard to business transformation, sustainable development and operational upgrade. Businesses are encouraged to leverage the HKTDC’s trade platforms and events to go global and explore international market opportunities, especially in the high-potential ASEAN region.Dr Lam welcomed the HKSAR Government’s SME support measures, including the relaunch of the Principal Moratorium scheme, a HK$1 billion injection into the BUD Fund and an additional HK$500 million provision for the Incentive Scheme for Recurrent Exhibitions 2.0. He believes the measures will foster SMEs’ sustainable development and reinforce Hong Kong’s role as a leading convention and exhibition hub.The Policy Address stated the Hong Kong Shopping Festival will be relaunched in the next two years to help SMEs tap into the mainland e-commerce sales market. Dr Lam said: “The inaugural Hong Kong Shopping Festival organised by the HKTDC in August this year received an enthusiastic response. Not only did it raise participants’ brand exposure, but also provided them with practical experience in e-commerce operations. We will build on this year’s success and host the second edition of the Festival next August, and in the ASEAN market in due course, to enable Hong Kong SMEs to explore market opportunities via e-commerce and social media platforms.”To help SMEs understand e-commerce marketing, the HKTDC will publish research reports and analyses on e-commerce ecosystems in different markets, such as ASEAN, to help businesses lay a solid foundation in e-commerce operations. Through its Digital Academy and Design Gallery’s (DG) cross-border e-commerce shops on Taobao and JD International, the HKTDC has been offering comprehensive support to Hong Kong SMEs to leverage diverse e-commerce and digital marketing channels to explore mainland opportunities. DG’s 70 physical sales network in the mainland serve as an ideal platform to promote Hong Kong brands in the region. As for the ASEAN market, the HKTDC’s DG Studio programme helps connect local businesses with ASEAN physical retailers and e-commerce platforms.In terms of strengthening SMEs’ brand development, the HKTDC will continue to organise some 40 international exhibitions and conferences in Hong Kong every year. We will also set up more Hong Kong Pavilions in mainland and overseas exhibitions and further enhance business matching, to support SMEs in developing their brand and tapping global opportunities.On promotion of Hong Kong's cultural and creative industries, as mentioned in the Policy Address, more Hong Kong, mainland and overseas cultural and creative products will be added to the Asia IP Exchange (AsiaIPEX), managed by the HKTDC, to facilitate cross-sector exchanges and cooperation and contribute to Hong Kong’s development into a regional IP trading centre. Currently, the platform displays more than 28,000 IP projects available for trading. The HKTDC will continue to promote cultural and creative products as well as IP transformation and trading on its platforms, such as the Business of IP Asia Forum, Hong Kong International Licensing Show and the Hong Kong International Film and TV Market.Dr Lam also welcomed measures addressing new quality productive forces, the Northern Metropolis, digital economy and silver economy, which will help Hong Kong businesses further explore opportunities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and Belt and Road countries and regions.Addressing the reduction of the liquor duty rate, Dr Lam believes that the move will strengthen related trade and further promote Hong Kong as a regional wine trading hub. He added that the 16th Hong Kong International Wine and Spirits Fair will be held from 7 to 9 November, which will showcase fine wines from around the world, including liquors and white wines in the mainland pavilions, whiskeys from Japan and Ireland and spirits from around the world. Fair seminars will highlight the prospects of Hong Kong’s spirits market, while Chinese liquor promotional events will help the industry seize new opportunities.In conclusion, Dr Lam said: "The HKTDC will continue to support and complement national development and the Hong Kong SAR Government's policies. We will work closely with the business community to leverage Hong Kong's advantages and promote sustainable economic growth."Media enquiriesPlease contact the HKTDC’s Communication & Public Affairs Department:Sam HoTel: (852) 2584 4589Email: sam.sy.ho@hktdc.orgTo view press releases in Chinese, please visit http://mediaroom.hktdc.com/tcAbout HKTDC The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) is a statutory body established in 1966 to promote, assist and develop Hong Kong's trade.

Fleet Space seeks to revolutionise mineral exploration with its vertically integrated technology stack, ExoSphere, which combines the latest advances in satellite connectivity, 3D multiphysics data acquisition and AI to map mineral systems in real-time to streamline exploration and improve success rates for new economic discoveries.The Wongarbon Project has never been drilled, is located in the interpreted extension of the Northern Molong Belt of the Macquarie Arc, NSW, and is considered to be highly prospective for a new large-scale porphyry copper-gold complex and series of discoveries.Sam Spring, President and CEO of Kincora, commented: "Kincora and Fleet Space strongly believe the Wongarbon Project has the potential to be a new porphyry district and it is a prime candidate for major discovery. We are very pleased to have entered this innovative and multiple phase agreement. The results of our recent multiphysics surveys at our Nyngan Project are pending and the structure of this expanded partnership with Fleet Space provides unique alignment. We look forward to shortly advancing the first new exploration at the Wongarbon Project in almost 30-years with a pathway for refining and drilling true and large-scale virgin targets. This is Kincora's fifth recent partnership further demonstrating how we work with technical partners to apply industry leading exploration techniques to systematically advance, fund and de-risk our project pipeline of highly prospective porphyry targets. Further deals and partnerships are proposed for other Kincora projects and we thank existing shareholders for their support in the capital raising and welcome some good new groups to the register."Fleet Space Director, CFO and Financial Strategy & Investment Officer, Federico Tata-Nardini, said:"In a major advance for exploration in the Macquarie Arc, we are excited to deploy Fleet Space's proprietary ExoSphere technology stack and multiphysics surveys at the Wongarbon Project, building upon our relationship with Kincora. These agreements reflect a complete end-to-end deployment of ExoSphere, from target generation to drill testing on a project that offers new district scale potential and has never been drilled. Fleet Space has invested very significantly in the Macquarie Arc and established a unique knowledge of a number of the key porphyry systems and emerging discoveries. We have completed five surveys, including recently at the Boda-Kaiser deposits. Why? Because we believe there are further Cadia-scale deposits to be found and that our Exosphere technology will play a fundamental role in uncovering the next one as we continue to enhance mineral systems knowledge worldwide.Wongarbon's geological and geophysical setting is favourably located in a highly prospective area of the Arc. It has clear analogues of the nearby porphyry complexes and existing Tier 1 deposits. We believe the project is at the stage where we can add significant value and mutually share major discovery potential with Kincora."Capital Raising In conjunction with these agreements with Fleet Space, the Company is pleased to announce that it has received binding commitments for a two tranche share placement comprising 33.5m shares at an issue price of $0.038 (C$0.036) per share to raise A$1.27m (C$1.19m) (before costs) with 1:2 attaching option at A$0.075 (C$0.07) with a 2-year term (the "Placement"). The issue price is a 12% discount to the last close price (October 10th, 2024) and 16% discount to the 15 day VWAP (on the ASX).The Offering has been led by strategic investments for A$400,000 (C$373,832) by Fleet Space's investment fund, a new arms-length investor, and Big Ben Holdings, a long-term shareholder of Kincora's maintaining its 12.9% stake.Allotment of tranche 1 of the Placement to professional and sophisticated investors will take place on October 22nd, 2024, with 12.6m shares being issued under Kincora's Listing Rule 7.1 placement capacity. Tranche 2 of the Placement (comprising 20.9m shares and 16.8m attaching options) will be subject to shareholder approval pursuant to a General Meeting, with further details to be provided to shareholders in a Notice of Meeting to be lodged shortly.Subject to shareholder approval, Directors intend to purchase C$50,000 of shares under tranche 2 of the Placement with Fleet Space and Big Ben Holdings also agreeing to participate in tranche 2. Fleet Space has agreed to a 12-month voluntary escrow period.Morgans Corporate Limited acted as Lead Manager to the Placement. A cash transaction cost of 3.9% of the Placement is payable.In addition to the Placement, the Company will issue 11m accrued remuneration shares to Kincora's board and senior management under the Equity Incentive Plan approved by shareholders.Post the proposed issuances, Kincora's total outstanding number of fully issued shared is anticipated to be 291.7m with 69m total options outstanding.Use of FundsThe funds used from the Placement is intended to support:(i) drilling and exploration at the Condobolin Project;(ii) Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) and gravity surveys at the Wongarbon Project with target refinement ahead of Fleet Space's right to drill a minimum of 2000 metres to earn a 20% stake in the Project; and,(iii) offering costs, working capital, new direct application license acquisition and general project generation opportunities.The New Partnership Fleet Space and Kincora have entered an agreement to commence multiphysics surveys at the Wongarbon Project with a path to asset level partnership:1) Fleet Space will have a right to fund a minimum of 2,000m drill program, with drill targets:identified and refined from the multiphysics surveys using Fleet Space's ExoSphere Discovery technology; and,mutually agreed by Kincora and Fleet Space.2) An exercise of the right in 1) will entitle Fleet Space to a 20% equity interest in the Wongarbon Project.3) The right in 1) may be exercised within 6 months of the completion of the multiphysics surveys.4) Should Fleet Space exercise the right, the parties will enter into a Joint Venture Agreement (JV Agreement). Key principles governing the JV Agreement will be customary for such stage exploration project including both parties having the right to provide additional funding maintain their respective ownership interests and dilution provisions should either party not participate in additional project funding, noting that any holder of a project interest less than 10% will have its interest converted to a 1% Net Smelter Return (NSR) royalty.Fleet Space is to be the operator of the multiphysics surveys, with support from Kincora, and Kincora the operator of the drilling program.The multiphysics surveys will comprise real-time 3D Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) and ground gravity surveys applying industry leading technology to generate and interpret new homogeneous and primary datasets via Fleet Space's proprietary and vertically integrated technology stack, ExoSphere, and be integrated with existing regional geophysical surveys and geological data.While interpretations are ongoing by Kincora, Fleet Space and AngloGold Ashanti the multiphysics surveys have confirmed and refined a regionally significant priority target ahead of imminent drilling. The surveys have also generated a number of previously unrecognised areas of interest and potential new target areas with a final review to integrate the results of the commenced drilling program results in conjunction with AngloGold Ashanti.About the Wongarbon ProjectPegged as open ground and secured only in June 2024, the Wongarbon project (EL9652) covers 173km2 and is interpreted to host one of the last remaining untested and large intrusive complexes of the Macquarie Arc:Regionally significant magmatic complex situated on the interpreted under cover extension of the northern Molong Belt coincident with an intrusive level cross arc structure supporting a series of large and untested porphyry targets.Clear analogues of the nearby complexes and existing Tier 1 deposits in the Arc and aeromagnetic signatures of other globally significant porphyry deposits.Previously identified as a large-scale new intrusive complex target by Newcrest but not drill tested at the time due to focus on the Cadia Far East and Ridgeway discoveries.Recent interpretations support immediate high priority targets for drilling.The Wongarbon project has never been drilled.Alkane and Magmatic Resources' have recently undertaken drilling at a total of seven porphyry targets along a common transverse structure that is interpreted to extend into the Wongarbon Project and be a key control to the 14.7Moz gold equivalent inventory at the Boda and Kaiser porphyry deposits 1. These recent programs have been encouraging with follow up exploration either planned and/or ongoing at these and other regional targets 3.Fleet Space has recently undertaken regional and infill ANT surveys at Alkane's Northern Molong Porphyry Project (NMPP), including the Boda and Kaiser deposits, with analysis and interpretation ongoing. Similar Fleet Space surveys across the Macquarie Arc, including Kincora's Nyngan Project, are noted as having refined and generated multiple new porphyry targets.Further details on the Wongarbon Project, including a detailed project level presentation, are available at: https://kincoracopper.com/wongarbon-project/ (Projects/Wongarbon).Further details on Kincora's wholly owned, district scale project portfolio and drill ready copper-gold porphyry projects are available on the Company's website: https://kincoracopper.com.About Fleet Space Technologies Fleet Space is private and widely recognised as Australia's leading space exploration company. Fleet Space seeks to revolutionise mineral exploration with its vertically integrated technology stack, ExoSphere, which combines the latest advances in satellite connectivity, 3D multiphysics data acquisition, and AI to map mineral systems in real-time.Fleet Space's ExoSphere technology enables an end-to-end approach to high-quality data acquisition, processing, interpretation and targeting to streamline exploration and improve success rates for new economic discoveries.Leveraging Fleet Space's proprietary satellite network in low Earth orbit, smart seismic sensors enabled with edge computing and rapid data processing, ExoSphere delivers real-time 3D mapping of mineral systems and AI-powered drill targeting with near-zero environmental impact.In the last quarter, Barrick Gold announced it would partner with Fleet Space to survey copper porphyry complexes across 1,150km² of the world-class Reko Diq project 4 and in the last month Gold Fields announced a similar relationship to advance exploration at the Salares Norte project in Chile 5.Recently, Inflection Resources' announced new targets generated by ExoSphere, leading AngloGold to accelerate their Exploration Agreement and drilling with Inflection 5.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Treatment “Rozebalamin(R) for Injection 25 mg” Receives The Good Design Award 2024 for Light- Proof Vial Packaging JCN Newswire

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Treatment “Rozebalamin(R) for Injection 25 mg” Receives The Good Design Award 2024 for Light- Proof Vial Packaging

TOKYO, Oct 16, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Eisai Co., Ltd. announced today that amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) treatment “Rozebalamin® for Injection 25 mg” (mecobalamin) has received the Good Design Award 2024 (by the Japan Institute of Design Promotion) for its light-proof vial packaging.“Rozebalamin for Injection” was approved in Japan on September 24, 2024 as a treatment for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Its active ingredient is mecobalamin, which was developed as a freeze-dried formulation which is dissolved into a solvent at the time of administration. Mecobalamin is chemically unstable when exposed to light, therefore requiring a higher level of light-protection than that of the commonly used light- blocking film made by depositing aluminum onto a PET film (aluminium-deposited PET), from the time of distribution/storage until immediately before administration. However, there is also some necessity for visibility, such as the ability to visually confirm the medication inside the vial at the time of use and see the needle tip when extracting the medication with a syringe.For Rozebalamin, packaging was created with a high level of light-protection by applying a black print to aluminium-deposited PET. While the entire vial is covered by the light-blocking packaging, a resealable window to visibility to inspect the solution inside, and the neck of the vial allows that can be peeled back. In addition, perforations were not added to the film with the aim of maintaining the high capacity for light- protection. In doing so, the conflicting issues of increasing light-protection while maintaining visibility were solved, which was also highly evaluated in this selection. This packaging was co-developed with IL Pharma Packaging Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Aichi), and the award was also presented to both companies.Eisai considers neurology a therapeutic area of focus. As a human healthcare company, Eisai is committed to further addressing the diverse needs of, and increasing the benefits of, patients, their families, and healthcare professionals, by providing high-quality and easy-to-use Rozebalamin as a new treatment option for ALS patients.About Good Design AwardA Japanese design evaluation and promotion mechanism that was first established in 1957 as the Good Design Product Selection System. As a global design award with participation from numerous domestic and international companies and organizations, it is held annually with the aim of improving the quality of life and utilizing design to solve social issues and themes. The "G Mark," which symbolizes the award, is widely recognized as an emblem of excellent design. www.g-mark.org/en.Media Inquiries:Public Relations Department, Eisai Co., Ltd.+81-(0)3-3817-5120 Copyright 2024 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Empowering Audiences: The Role of Content and Connectivity in Vietnam’s Media Evolution ACN Newswire

Empowering Audiences: The Role of Content and Connectivity in Vietnam’s Media Evolution

HO CHI MINH CITY, VIETNAM, Oct 16, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Over 100 industry delegates from across Asia gathered at the Asia Video Industry Association’s (AVIA) Vietnam in View conference, opened by the Deputy Director General of the Authority for Broadcast and Electronic Information (ABEI), Nguyen Ha Yen, on 9 October in Ho Chi Minh City.Despite the challenges of 2023 in the post-Covid landscape, the pay TV market in Vietnam continued to evolve, achieving a 4% increase in revenue and a 14% rise in subscriptions compared to 2022, as noted by Deputy Director General Nguyen. He emphasized that, amid fierce competition and rapid changes in consumer behaviour and technology, developing new business models for sustainable growth was essential for the future of pay TV. Both regulatory bodies and industry leaders will play crucial roles in shaping this strategic direction, he added.This was further reiterated by Thanh Vu, Deputy Regional Managing Director and Representative, US-ASEAN Business Council, in his market overview of Vietnam. Vietnam was fast approaching market maturity, with total subscriptions at almost 20 million, with 5.8% annual growth since 2018. And with pay TV penetration at 66%, there was still lots of room for growth, shared Thanh Vu. However, the clear winner was OTT and IPTV, which had become mainstream, and its revenue share accelerating from just 11% in 2019 to 45% by end of 2023, almost catching up with cable TV. Despite a sharp decline in subscriptions over the past 4 years and a modest subscription share of only 20% today, cable still accounted for over 50% of total Pay TV revenue.However regardless of platform, content very much remained the key driver for consumers, and critical to the business, said Pham Thanh Phuong, Managing Director, Viettel TV360. Offering the largest mobile and fixed-line network infrastructure in the Vietnamese market, with up to 80 million mobile broadband subscribers, bundling television and fixed broadband services was essential for them, and the smartest and fastest way to acquire the largest television customer base at the lowest cost and in the shortest time. But to keep their customers in the ecosystem, differentiation was important, especially from the international OTT platforms. “When we invest in local content, we can create a difference,” said Phuong.This sentiment was also clearly presented in the data from Kantar Media, on Who’s Watching What, Where and How in Vietnam. Local content reigned supreme across linear viewing, rounding up the top 10 most watched titles, with local Vietnamese series also driving over 30% of non-linear viewing. And from a platform perspective, the two most important devices were the Connected TV (CTV) and the smartphone, with CTV penetration at a striking 91% in the market. “It’s not a case of linear TV being replaced by video on demand, but that they complement each other. For the TV industry to develop, we must find out a way to serve the target audience according to their needs," said Tran Thi Thanh Mai, General Director, Kantar Media Vietnam.For Esther Nguyen, Founder & CEO, POPS Worldwide, their content strategy was always to look at the audience first, and the lifetime value of that audience, and serving the content that they want to watch, when they want to watch and on the platform of their choice. However, “playing in the digital world and operating among many different platforms is a double-edged sword,” shared Nguyen. “Platforms are global and have democratized content and what audiences watch. Audiences are now open to watching content from all over the world.

Fujitsu to combat fake news in collaboration with leading Japanese organizations

TOKYO, Oct 16, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Fujitsu today announced that it has begun a project to develop a disinformation countermeasure platform alongside a consortium of leading academic and private sector organizations. Fujitsu was selected as a primary operator for this initiative in July 2024 through a public call for proposals by Japan’s New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (“NEDO”) (1). The effort is part of the Key and Advanced Technology R&D through Cross Community Collaboration Program (“K Program”) (2), which was established with the collabor"ation of Japan’s Cabinet Office, the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI), and other related Japanese ministries, to strengthen and drive Japan’s economic security. The consortium, assembled by Fujitsu, includes the National Institute of Informatics (NII), NEC Corporation, Keio Research Institute at SFC, Institute of Science Tokyo (formerly Tokyo Tech), The University of Tokyo, University of Aizu, Nagoya Institute of Technology, and Osaka University.The project aims to develop the world’s first comprehensive disinformation countermeasure platform that can process false information from initial detection to evidence gathering, analysis, and evaluation, with development slated for completion by the end of fiscal year 2025.Vivek Mahajan, Corporate Vice President, CTO, CPO, Fujitsu Limited, comments: “We are excited to be working on this initiative with a top-tier consortium of Japanese academic and private sector organizations that have a proven track record of combating disinformation. In addition to our consortium partners, Fujitsu will collaborate with relevant government agencies and other organizations to develop a robust countermeasure solution and contribute to solving this serious societal challenge.”Figure 1. Consortium member organizationsAs prime operator of this project, Fujitsu will lead the R&D efforts, technology integration, and construction of the overall platform. Leveraging the latest trends in disinformation tactics and technologies, Fujitsu will also create use cases for public and private sector organizations, facilitating the practical application of the research findings.Technology to be developed and consortium roles1. Information analysis by media type and disinformation detection (Responsible parties: NII, NEC)NIILeveraging its track record in the field of fake media detection, NII will develop a technology to detect deepfakes of images, video and audio from social media posts and other content. The technology will identify how the media content has been created and any areas that have been manipulated and assign a confidence score which will be provided as supporting evidence.NECNEC will develop media understanding technology that extracts content including images, video and audio as text and uses it to analyze matches with social media posts and to collect supporting information.2. Evidence/endorsement management (Responsible parties: Keio Research Institute at SFC, Fujitsu, Osaka University)Keio Research Institute at SFC and FujitsuKeio Research Institute at SFC which has a track record in the field of trusted internet architecture and Fujitsu develop technology to integrate evidence collected from the internet, including the analysis results from technology 1 above. This evidence will be structured and stored as an evidence/endorsement graph (3) to verify authenticity and assess impact.Osaka UniversityOsaka University will leverage its expertise in IoT data analysis to develop technology to collect sensor data as a source of evidence. In cases where information for the target area is incomplete, the system will infer evidence based on available data from neighboring areas. This proactive, AI-driven evidence gathering, mimicking human information collection and inference, is a highly advanced initiative.3. Comprehensive authenticity determination (Responsible parties: Fujitsu, Nagoya Institute of Technology)Fujitsu- Fujitsu will develop technology to analyze the consistency of evidence linked to target information using evidence/endorsement graphs from technology 2. This technology enables comprehensive information authenticity analysis, presenting the results and supporting evidence in a user-friendly manner.- Fujitsu will also develop a specialized Japanese LLM for disinformation countermeasures, utilizing its supercomputer (Fugaku) and LLM (Takane) expertise. This specialized LLM will enhance comprehension of news and social media data, improve logical reasoning capabilities, and enable high-speed, high-accuracy inference for authenticity verification while mitigating hallucinations.Nagoya Institute of TechnologyFujitsu will collaborate with Nagoya Institute of Technology to develop a user interface and information provision technology based on cognitive science, considering factors related to human psychology (e.g., continued influence effect). This will help users to accurately judge the truthfulness of information and encourage appropriate actions, including making efforts to avoid the unintentional spread of false information.4. Evaluation of disinformation impact (Responsible parties: Institute of Science Tokyo, The University of Tokyo, Aizu University)Institute of Science Tokyo, The University of Tokyo, and University of Aizu, with their expertise in computational social science related to social media, will develop technology to assess the impact of disinformation. By extending LLMs to build an AI model for disinformation assessment, the three parties will analyze characteristics of disinformation, such as similarity to past disinformation and proliferation speed, focusing on the source, content, and social context of messages from social media data. This will allow for the evaluation of metrics such as proliferation scale and social impact. This development of technology to visualize and quantitatively assess the social impact of disinformation represents a highly advanced endeavor.Figure 2. Diagram of the disinformation countermeasure platformFuture PlansIn fiscal year 2024, the project will focus on analyzing use cases for private companies and public institutions, defining functional requirements, and initiating R&D of individual technologies, with the final system scheduled for development by the end of fiscal year 2025.By developing this platform, Fujitsu and its consortium partners aim to contribute to economic stability in the face of increasing disinformation risk and with NEDO’s support aid in increasing new industry development, international competitiveness, and strengthening Japan’s global position.Comments from partner academic-industrial organizationsProf. Junichi Yamagishi, National Institute of Informatics, comments:“Combating disinformation demands a sophisticated, integrated arsenal of technologies.

美國對北韓士兵可能在烏克蘭為俄羅斯作戰的報導感到「關切」

(SeaPRwire) - 美國官員週二表示,他們對有關朝鮮士兵代表俄羅斯在烏克蘭作戰的報導「感到擔憂」。本週,烏克蘭總統澤連斯基指責朝鮮向烏克蘭派遣士兵,稱他的情報機構向他通報了「朝鮮實際參與烏克蘭戰爭」的情況。這份簡報是在首爾國防部長金永玄告訴韓國政客「很可能」六名朝鮮軍官在最近烏克蘭對頓涅茨克的導彈襲擊中喪生的報告發布一週後。儘管有這些報導,但俄羅斯駁斥這些指控是「假新聞」。儘管如此,美國官員正在關注這些報導。「我們對有關朝鮮人民民主共和國(DPRK)士兵代表俄羅斯作戰的報導感到擔憂,如果屬實,這將標誌著朝鮮與俄羅斯之間的防務關係顯著加強,」國防部發言人查理·迪茨中校說。「此舉也表明俄羅斯在對烏克蘭的野蠻戰爭中持續遭受重大傷亡之際,已到了絕望的程度。」週二,發言人馬修·米勒也發表了類似的言論,呼應了迪茨的觀點。「我們對有關朝鮮人民民主共和國士兵代表俄羅斯作戰的報導感到擔憂,」米勒說。「如果屬實,這將標誌著兩國關係的顯著加強,這種關係在過去幾個月裡一直在發展。這也表明俄羅斯在持續遭受重大傷亡之際,已到了絕望的程度。」華盛頓表示,朝鮮向俄羅斯提供了彈藥和彈道導彈,但莫斯科和平壤否認了武器轉移。但兩國並沒有否認,而是誓言要加強軍事聯繫,這可能包括聯合演習。自 2022 年 2 月俄羅斯入侵以來,俄羅斯和朝鮮的關係加深。這兩個擁有核武器的國家在俄羅斯總統普京訪問朝鮮時於 6 月簽署了一項防務協議。俄羅斯和烏克蘭都已訴諸外國士兵,因為他們適齡服兵役的男性人數在減少。朝鮮最近加強了火炮和巡航導彈的生產和試驗。今年 3 月,俄羅斯在聯合國安理會上行使否決權,結束了對朝鮮違反禁止試驗彈道技術禁令的違規行為的監控。’ Liz Friden 和 Morgan Phillips 以及路透社和 本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

加印關係可能需要很長時間才能恢復 Business

加印關係可能需要很長時間才能恢復

(SeaPRwire) - 一場外交爭端已使雙邊關係緊張了一年多,隨著兩國因在加拿大遇害的錫克教活動人士和對其他罪行的指控而互相驅逐對方最高級外交官,爭端升級。專家表示,外交僵局將使兩國難以在過去充滿希望的合作關係中取得進展,並可能影響印度作為崛起世界大國的抱負。"自去年以來一直走下坡路的印加雙邊關係將進一步受到打擊,需要很長時間才能修復,"國際危機組織高級分析師 Praveen Donthi 說。週一雙方互相驅逐外交官,此前加拿大週日通知印度,其駐加拿大的最高級外交官是 2023 年暗殺案中的關心人士,並且警方已發現證據證明印度政府特工加劇了針對加拿大公民的行動。加拿大外交部長 Mélanie Joly 還將其他五名被驅逐的印度官員與 Nijjar 的暗殺案聯繫起來,並表示加拿大已收集到 "充分、明確和確鑿的證據,確定六人為 Nijjar 案的關心人士。"印度外交部駁斥了這些指控,稱其荒謬,並表示將驅逐加拿大的代理高級專員和其他五名外交官作為回應。印度長期以來對錫克分離主義團體的擔憂一直是其與加拿大的關係的絆腳石,加拿大有 2% 的人口是錫克教徒。印度越來越多地指責賈斯汀·特魯多政府放任錫克分離主義者,他們曾經是一個強大的運動,旨在建立一個稱為卡利斯坦的獨立錫克教國家。Nijjar 是卡利斯坦運動的當地領袖,該運動在印度被禁止。印度在 2020 年將他列為恐怖分子,並且在他遇害時,正在追捕他,指控他參與襲擊印度的一位印度教僧侶。加拿大警方表示,Nijjar 於 2023 年 6 月 18 日在離開他擔任主席的卑詩省錫克教寺廟停車場時被槍殺。他身中數槍,當場死亡。印度外交部在週一的聲明中將加拿大的指控歸咎於 "特魯多政府的政治議程。"加拿大領導人將在明年舉行全國大選。美國智庫威爾遜中心的 Michael Kugelman 表示,印度的強烈反應部分是由於加拿大公開指責的方式。"新德里對任何外部批評其政策都極為敏感。然而,加拿大不僅僅批評印度的政策。其政府在最高層公開表達了另一個政府可以提出的最嚴重的指控,"他說。去年,針對特魯多提出的類似指控,印度要求加拿大撤回其在印度的 62 名外交官中的 41 名。Kugelman 表示,這種關係現在處於 "生命維持狀態",而印度對加拿大卡利斯坦運動的擔憂 "基本上正在將這種關係劫持為人質。"加拿大不是唯一一個指控印度官員在國外策劃暗殺的國家。去年,美國檢察官表示,印度政府官員指揮了一起暗殺紐約另一位錫克教分離主義者領袖的失敗陰謀。該官員沒有被指控或被點名,但被描述為在安全管理和情報方面負有責任的 "高級現場官員"。新德里當時在美國提出這個問題後表示關切,並表示印度非常重視此事。週一,美國國務院在一份聲明中表示,印度調查委員會將於週二前往華盛頓,作為其正在進行的調查的一部分,該調查委員會成立以調查這起陰謀。加拿大外交部長週一指出,印度正在與美國官員合作,但表示它拒絕在加拿大調查中合作。Donthi 表示,印度對加拿大的外交姿態更加咄咄逼人,因為賭注相對較低。"美印關係還有一個更大的地緣政治框架和背景,這與印加關係不同,"Donthi 說,並補充說印度的強烈反應也旨在向總理納倫德拉·莫迪的國內支持者傳達信息。"任何公開批評對印度政府來說都是禁忌,印度政府是莫迪的化身。這種咄咄逼人的反應針對的是國際社會,更重要的是,針對的是莫迪的國內選區,"他說。然而,專家表示,這種僵局可能會對莫迪的全球野心產生影響,因為他試圖將印度打造成一個崛起中的全球大國,並且與美國越來越近,美國和印度一樣,都對中國日益強硬的態度感到擔憂。Donthi 表示,印度與加拿大之間日益加深的裂痕還將 "影響美國與西方民主國家之間日益增長的戰略理解",這些國家正在爭取新德里作為對抗北京的制衡力量。"加拿大對印度的指控背道而馳,因為新德里一直享受著良好的外部環境,"Donthi 說。 "這將給印度的超級大國雄心壯志蒙上陰影。"本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

(SeaPRwire) - 緊急救援人員週二表示,他們在海上漂流超過兩個月的充氣船上救出了一名男子,但他的兄弟和侄子已經死亡。據俄羅斯遠東地區檢察官辦公室稱,這名男子是在週一在鄂霍次克海被救起的,當時一艘漁船在堪察加半島附近發現了他,美聯社報導。俄羅斯新聞媒體稱這名男子為 46 歲的米哈伊爾·皮丘金,他於 8 月初與他 49 歲的兄弟和 15 歲的侄子一起出發去觀賞鯨魚。據美聯社報導,當「天使」號漁船救起皮丘金時,他們的遺體據報在船上被發現。媒體報導稱,這三人於 8 月初前往鄂霍次克海西北海岸的尚塔爾群島。他們在 8 月 9 日從哈巴羅夫斯克地區的佩羅夫斯基角出發前往薩哈林島後失蹤。一場救援行動展開,但未能找到他們。據稱,這三人當時只有一點食物和大約 5.2 加侖水,當時他們的船隻引擎故障,導致他們在海上漂流。新聞報導稱,漁船船員沒有立即意識到雷達上的信號是一艘船,而是認為它可能是一個浮標或一塊垃圾。當他們使用探照燈時,他們震驚地發現了一名在船上的飢餓男子。據報導,皮丘金在被救起時體重只有 110 磅,減掉了身體一半的重量。他沒有立即說明他是如何在鄂霍次克海中生存下來的,鄂霍次克海是東亞最冷的海域,以狂風而聞名,也沒有說明他的兄弟和侄子是如何死亡的。新聞報導稱,救起皮丘金的船隻船員發現他們的遺體被綁在船上,以防止他們被海水沖走。當皮丘金的船被發現時,它正漂流在堪察加半島海岸約 11 海里處,距離他們在海對岸出發點約 540 海里。美聯社報導稱,檢察官辦公室發布的視頻顯示,一名消瘦的男人絕望地向救援人員大喊「過來!」。「我沒有力氣了,」皮丘金在救援人員努力將他救到安全地帶時告訴他們。檢察官表示,他們已對事件展開調查,並正在考慮與導致死亡的安全規則違規相關的指控。美聯社報導稱,皮丘金被送往馬加丹醫院的急診室。首席醫生尤里·列德涅夫告訴記者,他正在遭受脫水和低溫症,但情況穩定。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。
