Abstract
This paper studies the state-of-the-art of active perception solutions for manipulation in agriculture and suggests a possible architecture for an active perception system for harvesting in agriculture. Research and developing robots for agricultural context is a challenge, particularly for harvesting and pruning context applications. These applications normally consider mobile manipulators and their cognitive part has many challenges. Active perception systems look reasonable approach for fruit assessment robustly and economically. This systematic literature review focus in the topic of active perception for fruits harvesting robots. The search was performed in five different databases. The search resumed into 1034 publications from which only 195 publications where considered for inclusion in this review after analysis. We conclude that the most of researches are mainly about fruit detection and segmentation in two-dimensional space using evenly classic computer vision strategies and deep learning models. For harvesting, multiple viewpoint and visual servoing are the most commonly used strategies. The research of these last topics does not look robust yet, and require further analysis and improvements for better results on fruit harvesting.

Abstract
Angola is characterized by many different languages and social, cultural and political realities, which had a marked effect on Angolan Portuguese (AP). Consequently, AP is characterized by diatopic variation. One of the marked effects is the loanwords imported from other Angolan languages. Our objective is to analyze different Angolan texts, analyze the lexical forms used and conduct a comparative study with European Portuguese, aiming at identifying the possible loanwords in Angolan Portuguese. This process was automated, as well as the identification of all loanwords' cotexts. In addition, we determine the lexical class of each loanword and the Angolan language of its origin. Most lexical loanwords come from the Kimbundu, although AP includes loanwords from some other Angolan languages too. Our study serves as a basis for preparing an Angolan regionalism dictionary. We noticed that more than 700 identified loanwords do not figure in the existing dictionaries.

Abstract
Digital musical instruments have become increasingly prevalent in musical creation and production. Optimizing their usability and, particularly, their expressiveness, has become essential to their study and practice. The absence of multimodal feedback, present in traditional acoustic instruments, has been identified as an obstacle to complete performer-instrument interaction in particular due to the lack of embodied control. Mobile-based digital musical instruments present a particular case by natively providing the possibility of enriching basic auditory feedback with additional multimodal feedback. In the experiment presented in this article, we focused on using visual and haptic feedback to support and enrich auditory content to evaluate the impact on basic musical tasks (i.e., note pitch tuning accuracy and time). The experiment implemented a protocol based on presenting several musical note examples to participants and asking them to reproduce them, with their performance being compared between different multimodal feedback combinations. Collected results show that additional visual feedback was found to reduce user hesitation in pitch tuning, allowing users to reach the proximity of desired notes in less time. Nonetheless, neither visual nor haptic feedback was found to significantly impact pitch tuning time and accuracy compared to auditory-only feedback.

Abstract
This paper describes two different approaches to sentiment analysis. The first is a form of symbolic approach that exploits a sentiment lexicon together with a set of shifter patterns and rules. The sentiment lexicon includes single words (unigrams) and is developed automatically by exploiting labeled examples. The shifter patterns include intensification, attenuation/downtoning and inversion/reversal and are developed manually. The second approach exploits a deep neural network, which uses a pre-trained language model. Both approaches were applied to texts on economics and finance domains from newspapers in European Portuguese. We show that the symbolic approach achieves virtually the same performance as the deep neural network. In addition, the symbolic approach provides understandable explanations, and the acquired knowledge can be communicated to others. We release the shifter patterns to motivate future research in this direction.

Abstract
Causality is a complex concept, which roots its developments across several fields, such as statistics, economics, epidemiology, computer science, and philosophy. In recent years, the study of causal relationships has become a crucial part of the Artificial Intelligence community, as causality can be a key tool for overcoming some limitations of correlation-based Machine Learning systems. Causality research can generally be divided into two main branches, that is, causal discovery and causal inference. The former focuses on obtaining causal knowledge directly from observational data. The latter aims to estimate the impact deriving from a change of a certain variable over an outcome of interest. This article aims at covering several methodologies that have been developed for both tasks. This survey does not only focus on theoretical aspects. But also provides a practical toolkit for interested researchers and practitioners, including software, datasets, and running examples. This article is categorized under: Algorithmic Development > Causality Discovery Fundamental Concepts of Data and Knowledge > Explainable AI Technologies > Machine Learning

Abstract
This paper proposes a dynamic line rating (DLR) technology application as an alternative to improve the operational reliability of interconnected electrical islands. Transmission system interconnection represents the main asset to identify the border between electrical areas, and they are essential not only for energy market interchanges but also for power assistance among distinct electrical areas. To introduce DLR technology as an option to multi-area systems reliability evaluation, this paper exploits the multi-variate requirements associated with DLR methods, discussing how this technology can be viewed as an operational alternative that can reveal hidden capacity of transmission lines. Therefore, the paper proposes a probabilistic framework to calculate the impact of DLR technology into multi-area systems operation reliability assessment, by means of distinct operative and market agreements. Numerical results are provided for the IEEE-RTS 96 HW along with a brief discussion of its impact in the Iberian Peninsula interconnected power system.
