In this study, we investigate the potential of large language models (LLMs) to simulate partisan political polarization through conversation experiments. While previous research has demonstrated that LLM agents fail to reproduce human-like partisan polarization due to their inherent biases, we hypothesized that incorporating confirmation bias prompts could help overcome these limitations. We conducted conversation simulations between LLM agents assigned Democratic and Republican ideologies, analyzing both intra-party and inter-party interactions. Results without confirmation bias prompts revealed that agents, particularly those with Republican ideologies, tended to shift toward Democratic positions, failing to replicate human partisan behavior. However, when confirmation bias prompts were introduced, agents maintained their initial political stances more consistently, especially in intra-party conversations. While some tendency toward moderation remained in cross-party discussions, the magnitude of position shifts was significantly reduced. These findings suggest that confirmation bias prompts can effectively mitigate LLMs’ inherent biases in partisan simulations, though additional refinements may be needed to fully replicate human polarization dynamics.

Facial features are critical visual indicators for understanding what a person is experiencing, providing valuable insights into their emotions and physical states. However, accurately detecting these features under diverse conditions remains a significant challenge, especially in computationally constrained environments. This paper presents a facial feature extraction method designed to identify regions of interest for detecting facial cues, with a focus on improving the accuracy of eye and mouth detection. Addressing the limitations of standard Haar cascade classifiers, particularly in challenging scenarios such as droopy eyes, red eyes, and droopy mouths, this method introduces a correction algorithm rooted in normal human facial anatomy, emphasizing symmetry and consistent feature placement. By integrating this correction algorithm with a feature-based refinement process, the proposed approach enhances detection accuracy from 67.22% to 96.11%. Through this method, the accurate detection of facial features like the eyes and mouth is significantly improved, offering a lightweight and efficient solution for real-time applications while maintaining computational efficiency.

The study explores the scenarios and approach to the design of the software for managing notifications about the fuzzily planned activities. Though many such scenarios can be solved by using traditional time and activity management tools such as organizers, diaries, planners, or schedulers, practical situations often arise when people tend to avoid overmanagement for real-life situations, when the plans might be flexible, and the planned activities might depend on location, contextual, and time information, which may not necessarily be well known or configured in advance. In this contribution, we describe examples of such situations and define the concept of soft planning. Following the principles of the human-driven design paradigm, we conducted a small-scale survey to gather insights into user preferences and identify drawbacks of existing digitalized activity planning and decision-making tools, often based on configurable notification management software. The findings reveal that while notifications are useful, users often encounter issues such as information overload, lack of contextual awareness, and disruptions caused by the notifications arriving at inconvenient or even inappropriate times.

Teaching with technology enhances instructional effectiveness and student engagement, particularly in mathematics, accounting, and ICT education. Digital learning creates an interactive environment that fosters deeper understanding and keeps learners updated with current trends. For teachers, it offers tools to assess student strengths and weaknesses better, guiding them to develop targeted interventions. However, successful technology integration depends on educators’ digital skills, an area where many still face challenges. This paper aims to assess teachers’ technological and pedagogical proficiency and identify barriers to integration. The study employed a mixed-method approach with 60 teacher respondents selected through stratified random sampling from both urban and rural schools. Data was collected through online interviews, classroom observations, and pre- and post-survey questionnaires focusing on confidence, competence, and willingness to use technology. Thematic analysis and paired sample t-tests using SPSS v.20 revealed a significant improvement in teachers’ technological skills following an intervention program. It also identified both internal and external factors hindering technological integration in the classroom. Findings emphasize that sustained support and training are essential for effective technology use in the classroom and recommend that school administrators embed technology in curriculum planning to enhance both instruction and extension activities.

Computational thinking (CT) is a cognitive approach for solving problems using the concepts of algorithmic thinking, decomposition of a problem into components, identifying patterns among commonly occurring activities, and abstraction. CT promotes interdisciplinary learning and enhances problem-solving and logical reasoning abilities. In this study, a comprehensive analysis of the current issues and challenges of applying CT in the educational landscape is presented with a focus on the various assessment tools and their implementation in teaching methods. The study identifies the various techniques that can be used by educators to evaluate the skills of students based on their ability to solve problems that require CT. A systematic review of the available literature and related works was conducted to analyze their importance in CT, as well as their issues and challenges. This study finds that there is a need for a unified definition and implementation guidelines on CT. The available assessment tools mainly focus on programming constructs, leaving little room for evaluating abstract concepts as challenges in the field; hence, designing and developing assessment mechanisms are also required for effective implementation of CT in an academic context.

This study examines the impact of Community Notes on users’ stance and posting behavior regarding the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine on X. Unlike previous research focusing on affected posts and authors, this study analyzes users who viewed Community Notes and their posting behavior before and after exposure. We analyzed posts related to the HPV vaccine using X’s official Community Notes dataset (January 2021–July 2024). Posts were classified as “Support,” “Oppose,” or “Neutral” using a large language model (GPT-4o, OpenAI), and changes in stance and posting frequency were evaluated. Findings show that 73% of users maintained their stance after viewing Community Notes. However, posting frequency increased sharply immediately after the note was added, especially among opposing users. This suggests that, since most Community Notes support vaccination, opposing users may have actively responded by posting critical responses. This study contributes by examining viewer behavior, not just post authors. However, limitations include GPT-4o’s classification accuracy and the restricted scope of topics and users covered in this study. Future research should improve the evaluation of Community Notes by verifying users who viewed Community Notes and enhancing stance classification through better prompts and model comparisons. Additionally, expanding the analysis beyond the HPV vaccine will help assess the broader applicability of the findings. Full article

The prevalence of online harassment necessitates sophisticated automated systems that can accurately classify offensive content. In this work, we present a text classification system based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks to categorize text into Neutral, Insult, and Defamation classes, thereby providing a more granular understanding of abusive behavior in digital environments. The system was evaluated using two labeled datasets—150 samples generated by ChatGPT and 1000 samples from internet sources—achieving an accuracy of 85% on both. Notably, the model demonstrated strong performance in identifying Defamation, exhibiting high precision and recall. These findings underscore the effectiveness of LSTM networks in capturing complex linguistic features, highlighting their potential for improving content moderation tools and curbing online harassment.

Early Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) detection is important for early intervention. This study investigates the potential of eye-tracking (ET) data combined with machine learning (ML) models to classify ASD and Typically Developed (TD) children. Using a publicly available dataset, five ML models were evaluated: Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and Random Forest improved with Convolutional Filters (ConvRF). The models were trained and tested using a set of evaluation metrics, including accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and ROC Area Under the Curve (AUC). Among these, the ConvRF model attained superior performance, achieving a recall of 90% and an AUC of 88%, indicating its robustness in identifying ASD children. These results highlight the model’s effectiveness in ensuring high sensitivity, which is critical for early ASD detection. This study shows the promise of combining ML and eye-tracking technology as accessible non-invasive tools for enhancing early ASD detection, resulting in timely and personalized interventions. Limitations and recommendations for future research are also included. Full article

Medical imaging analysis plays a pivotal role in modern healthcare, with physicians relying heavily on radiologists for disease diagnosis. However, many hospitals face a shortage of radiologists, leading to long queues at radiology centers and delays in diagnosis. Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have made it possible for AI models to analyze medical images and provide insights similar to those of radiologists. Despite their successes, these models face significant challenges that hinder widespread adoption. One major issue is the inability of AI models to generalize data from new populations, as performance tends to degrade when evaluated on datasets with different or shifted distributions, a problem known as domain shift. Additionally, the large size of these models requires substantial computational resources for training and deployment. In this study, we address these challenges by investigating domain shifts using ChestXray-14 and a Nigerian chest X-ray dataset. We propose a multi-task learning (MTL) approach that jointly trains the model on both datasets for two tasks, classification and segmentation, to minimize the domain gap. Furthermore, we replace traditional convolutional layers in the backbone model (Densenet-201) architecture with depthwise separable convolutions, reducing the model’s number of parameters and computational requirements. Our proposed model demonstrated remarkable improvements in both accuracy and AUC, achieving 93% accuracy and 96% AUC when tested across both datasets, significantly outperforming traditional transfer learning methods.

A smart irrigation system based on soil moisture sensors supported by photovoltaic energy is an innovation to address water use efficiency in the agricultural sector, especially in remote areas. This technology utilizes photovoltaic panels as a renewable energy source to operate water pumps, while soil moisture sensors provide real-time data that is used to automatically manage irrigation according to plant needs. This technology not only increases the efficiency of water and energy use but also supports environmental conservation by reducing dependence on fossil fuels. This research was conducted using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach guided by the PRISMA framework to analyze trends, benefits, and challenges in implementing this technology. The analysis results show that this system offers various advantages, including energy efficiency, reduced carbon emissions, and ease of management through the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technology. Several challenges remain, such as high initial investment costs, limited network access, and obstacles. Technical matters related to installation and maintenance. Various solutions have been proposed, including providing subsidies for small farmers, implementing radiofrequency modules, and using modular designs to simplify implementation. This study contributes to the development of a conceptual framework that can be adapted to various geographic and socio-economic conditions. Potential further developments include the integration of artificial intelligence and additional sensors to increase efficiency and support the sustainability of the agricultural sector globally.

A major worldwide health problem, hypertension can result in serious consequences such as stroke, renal failure, and cardiovascular illnesses if it is not identified and treated promptly. Reducing death rates and facilitating prompt therapies need the early identification of hypertension. This research examines if there are ways ML could enhance early identification of hypertension. Therefore, hypertension is still considered a global public health problem, and one of the most important preventive goals is its timely and accurate diagnosis. Leveraging a 99.92% accuracy rate, the present study therefore proposes a novel ML framework that significantly dwarfs the currently documented best accuracy of 99.5%. This achievement of correctly identifying the essentiality of hypertension in establishing our recommended paradigm highlights the robustness and trustworthiness of the proposed actions to ensure timely treatment and enhance patients’ quality of life the largest amount.

In the current digital era, the demand for rapid news delivery increases the risk of linguistic errors, including inaccuracies in the usage of melting words. This research introduces the U-Tapis application, a platform designed to detect and correct such errors using the Damerau-Levenshtein Distance algorithm and the RoBERTa model. The system achieved an average recommendation accuracy of 92.84%, with performance ranging from 91.30% to 95.45% across 3000 news articles. Despite its effectiveness, the system faces limitations, such as the static nature of its dataset, which does not update dynamically with new entries in the Indonesian Language Dictionary, and its tendency to flag all words with “me-” and “pe-” prefixes, regardless of context. These challenges highlight opportunities for future enhancements to improve the platform’s adaptability and precision. Full article

Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) plays a pivotal role in understanding the nuances of sentiment expressed in text, particularly in the context of diverse languages and cultures. This paper presents a novel deep convolutional neural network (CNN)-based model tailored for aspect and polarity classification in Hausa movie reviews, as Hausa is an underrepresented language with limited resources and presence in sentiment analysis research. One of the primary implications of this work is the creation of a comprehensive Hausa ABSA dataset, which addresses a significant gap in the availability of resources for sentiment analysis in underrepresented languages. This dataset fosters a more inclusive sentiment analysis landscape and advances research in languages with limited resources. The collected dataset was first preprocessed using Sci-Kit Learn to perform TF-IDF transformation for extracting feature word vector weights. Aspect-level feature ontology words within the analyzed text were derived, and the sentiment of the reviewed texts was manually annotated. The proposed model combines convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with an attention mechanism to aid aspect word prediction. The model utilizes sentences from the corpus and feature words as vector inputs to enhance prediction accuracy. The proposed model leverages the advantages of the convolutional and attention layers to extract contextual information and sentiment polarities from Hausa movie reviews. The performance demonstrates the applicability of such models to underrepresented languages. With 91% accuracy on aspect term extraction and 92% on sentiment polarity classification, the model excels in aspect identification and sentiment analysis, offering insights into specific aspects of interest and their associated sentiments. The proposed model outperformed traditional machine models in both aspect word and polarity prediction. Through the creation of the Hausa ABSA dataset and the development of an effective model, this study makes significant advances in ABSA research. It has wide-ranging implications for the sentiment analysis field in the context of underrepresented languages. Full article

The production of hydrogen through water electrolysis has emerged as a promising alternative to decarbonizing the energy sector, especially when integrated with renewable energy sources. Among the key operational parameters that affect electrolysis performance, temperature and current density play a critical role in determining the energy efficiency, hydrogen yield and durability of the system. The study presents a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) that includes peer-reviewed publications from 2018 to 2025, focusing on the effects of temperature and current density across a variety of electrolysis technologies, including alkaline (AEL), proton exchange membrane (PEMEL), and solid oxide electrolysis cells (SOEC). A total of seven high-quality studies were selected following the PRISMA 2020 framework. The results show that high temperatures improve electrochemical kinetics and reduce excess potential, especially in PEM and SOEC systems, but can also accelerate component degradation. Higher current densities increase hydrogen production rates but lead to lower Faradaic efficiency and increased material stress. The optimal operating range was identified for each type of electrolysis, with PEMEL performing best at 60–80 °C and 500–1000 mA/cm², and SOEC at >750 °C. In addition, system-level studies emphasize the importance of integrating hydrogen production with flexible generation and storage infrastructure. The review highlights several research gaps, including the need for dynamic modeling, multi-parameter control strategies, and techno-economic assessments. These findings provide a basic understanding for optimizing hydrogen electrolysis systems in low-carbon energy architectures. Full article

Geothermal power generation offers a high availability factor and independence from weather conditions, yet steam production in geothermal wells often declines over time due to factors such as pressure depletion and scale deposition. To enable early detection of production anomalies and optimize maintenance, this paper proposes an anomaly detection framework based on Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA). First, a Butterworth low-pass filter reduces high-frequency noise; then, SSA decomposes the time series, focusing on the largest singular value’s corresponding vectors. An anomaly score measures the deviation between current and historical singular vectors, and Non-Maximum Suppression (NMS) aggregates consecutive peaks to reduce false positives. We apply this method to 14 years of data from nine geothermal wells, comparing two threshold strategies: a unified threshold and well-specific thresholds. Results show that while a unified threshold simplifies deployment, individual thresholds can improve detection in certain wells, underscoring the impact of well characteristics and class imbalance. Our findings demonstrate that SSA-based anomaly detection, combined with NMS and threshold optimization, can effectively support maintenance decisions in geothermal power plants. Full article

Migraines are recurring and highly painful headaches with multiple associated symptoms that severely affect millions of people around the world. This condition is considered quite serious from a neurologist’s perspective because it is highly debilitating. Effective treatment of migraines begins with its diagnosis but the subjective nature of clinical evaluations along with class imbalance in patient datasets makes this very complicated. This paper attempts to tackle these issues by developing a machine-learning framework for automated migraines classification by utilizing a Kaggle dataset of 400 samples with 23 independent attributes and 1 dependent attribute representing different types of migraines. Our framework starts with a detailed cleansing of the data, which includes filtering out all missing values. Then, through the use of SMOTE (Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique), the issue of an imbalanced dataset is tackled. This is followed by optimized feature selection through forward selection and cross-validation with Naïve Bayes. Supervised machine-learning classifiers such as Random Forest (RF), decision tree (DT), K-nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Naïve Bayes (NB) are evaluated and voted on to predict the outcome.

In recent times, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies like ChatGPT-4o within the education sector has become an undisputed fact. AI has transformed the education sector, offering tools that enhance student research and writing. However, the use of AI raises concerns with respect to academic integrity, originality, and authenticity. Indian Universities regulate traditional plagiarism with anti-plagiarism detection systems. Some Indian Universities have also subscribed to AI plagiarism detection systems, but not all of them have subscribed to AI plagiarism detection. The majority of Indian Universities are not sufficiently prepared to identify AI-generated content that is contextually relevant and original, thus bypassing these traditional checks. This study stresses the urgent need for the University Grants Commission (UGC) to introduce advanced AI detection systems across Indian universities. Unlike regular plagiarism checkers, these tools can identify unique writing patterns that suggest AI-generated content. Without such measures, universities risk students using AI to complete assignments and research dishonestly. Through this research, the authors will examine the ethical concerns surrounding AI in academia and highlight the importance of clear guidelines to ensure responsible use. Colleges and universities need proper policies to regulate AI-generated work in student submissions. This study will compare how India and other countries handle AI detection in education, elaborating on the challenges of dealing with AI-generated content. The paper will propose a structured framework for Indian universities, including the use of AI detection tools, ethical guidelines, and awareness programmes to help students use AI responsibly while maintaining academic integrity in a changing educational system.

Lubricants are useful for reducing the negative impacts of friction. An engine that is not properly lubricated will easily wear out, make noise, and produce excessive heat. The use of conventional petroleum-based lubricants still dominates, but the sustainability of fossil resources and the environmental impacts they have are major concerns. Therefore, the development of lubricants based on natural materials, or bio lubricants, is increasingly gaining attention. This paper aims to analyze various studies that have been conducted related to bio lubricants, especially those based on Indonesian natural resources. With the plant resources available in Indonesia, this research can be developed by utilizing the local wealth that is available, especially in abundance in Sukabumi City or Regency. Full article

Voice pathology diagnosis is essential for the timely detection and management of voice disorders, which can significantly impact an individual’s quality of life. This study employed logistic regression to evaluate the predictive power of variables that include age, severity, loudness, breathiness, pitch, roughness, strain, and gender on a binary diagnosis outcome (Yes/No). The analysis was performed on the Perceptual Voice Qualities Database (PVQD), a comprehensive dataset containing voice samples with perceptual ratings. Two widely used voice quality assessment tools, CAPE-V (Consensus Auditory-Perceptual Evaluation of Voice) and GRBAS (Grade, Roughness, Breathiness, Asthenia, Strain), were employed to annotate voice qualities, ensuring systematic and clinically relevant perceptual evaluations. The model revealed that age (odds ratio: 1.033, p < 0.001), loudness (odds ratio: 1.071, p = 0.005), and gender (male) (odds ratio: 1.904, p = 0.043) were statistically significant predictors of voice pathology. In contrast, severity and voice quality-related features like breathiness, pitch, roughness, and strain did not show statistical significance, suggesting their limited predictive contributions within this model. While the results provide valuable insights, the study underscores notable limitations of logistic regression. The model assumes a linear relationship between the independent variables and the log odds of the outcome, which restricts its ability to capture complex, non-linear patterns within the data. Additionally, logistic regression does not inherently account for interactions between predictors or feature dependencies, potentially limiting its performance in more intricate datasets. Furthermore, a fixed classification threshold (0.5) may lead to misclassification, particularly in datasets with imbalanced classes or skewed predictor distributions. These findings highlight that although logistic regression serves as a useful tool for identifying significant predictors, its results are dataset-dependent and cannot be generalized across diverse populations. Future research should validate these findings using heterogeneous datasets and employ advanced machine learning techniques to address the limitations of logistic regression. Integrating non-linear models or feature interaction analyses may enhance diagnostic accuracy, ensuring more reliable and robust voice pathology predictions. Full article

Hydroponic agriculture based on the Internet of Things (IoT) is an innovative solution to face the challenges of land limitations and climate uncertainty. This study aims to analyze the role of IoT in accelerating the growth of hydroponic plants through monitoring and automation of the planting environment, as well as evaluating its impact on productivity, especially for the planting process in land with minimal sunlight. The system integrates sensors to monitor environmental parameters such as pH, temperature, and humidity, which are then processed in real-time to optimize nutrient delivery and irrigation. The results show that the use of IoT in hydroponic systems is able to significantly improve the quality and quantity of crop yields compared to conventional methods. However, there are several challenges in implementation, such as high initial costs, limited infrastructure in certain areas, and potential cybersecurity threats. Nonetheless, innovation and collaboration opportunities between the public and private sectors can accelerate the adoption of these technologies in sustainable agriculture. Full article

Water quality monitoring is an important step in maintaining environmental sustainability and public health. Water turbidity is one of the main parameters in assessing water quality, because a high level of turbidity can indicate pollution that is harmful to aquatic ecosystems and humans. In the digital era, Internet of Things (IoT) technology has been applied to improve the effectiveness of real-time monitoring of water turbidity. This study aims to examine IoT-based water turbidity monitoring strategies and technologies using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method with the PRISMA protocol. In the process of searching for literature, this study identified 222 articles from the Scopus database, which, after going through the screening stage based on relevance, document type, and accessibility, resulted in seven main articles for further analysis. The results of the review show that the utilization of IoT sensors and wireless communication enables real-time monitoring of water turbidity, improves early detection of pollution, and improves effectiveness in water monitoring. However, challenges such as data security, sensor reliability, and communication network stability still need to be overcome to ensure the system works optimally. This study confirms that IoT can be a more efficient and sustainable solution in monitoring water turbidity. Full article

In drylands, farmers practicing rain-dependent agriculture sow their seeds in accordance with the onset of the rainy season. Thus, the onset of the rainy season is extremely important, but inexperienced farmers cannot determine when it begins. To support farmers in determining the optimal sowing date, we propose a method that combines GSMaP estimates with actual measurements from a mobile application to present rainfall data and evaluate its usefulness. In the proposed method, GSMaP is used to visualize estimated rainfall data, but satellite-based estimates can differ from ground-based actual measurements. If farmers own smartphones, they can use a mobile application to record actual rainfall measurements. This allows farmers to selectively incorporate both estimated and actual rainfall data into their cultivation plans. Full article

Stroke is a major global cause of death and disability, and improving outcomes requires early prediction. Although class imbalance in datasets causes biased predictions and inferior classification accuracy, machine learning (ML) techniques have shown potential in stroke prediction. We used the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) to balance datasets and lessen bias in order to address these problems. Furthermore, we suggested a method that combines a linear discriminant analysis (LDA) model for classification with an autoencoder for feature extraction. A grid search approach was used to optimize the hyperparameters of the LDA model. We used criteria like accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, AUC (area under the curve), and ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) to guarantee a strong evaluation. With 98.51% sensitivity, 97.56% specificity, 99.24% accuracy, and 98.00% balanced accuracy, our model demonstrated remarkable performance, indicating its potential to improve stroke prediction and aid in clinical decision-making.

Phishing is a form of cyber-attack that aims to steal sensitive information by impersonating a trusted entity. To overcome this threat, various artificial intelligence (AI) methods have been developed to improve the effectiveness of phishing detection. This study evaluates three machine learning models, namely Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), and Support Vector Machine (SVM), using an open dataset containing phishing and non-phishing URLs. The research process includes data preprocessing stages such as cleaning, normalization, categorical feature encoding, feature selection, and dividing the dataset into training and test data. The trained models are then evaluated using accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and comparison score metrics to determine the best model in phishing classification. The evaluation results show that the Random Forest model has the best performance with higher accuracy and generalization of 98.64% compared to Decision Tree which is only 98.37% and SVM 92.67%. Decision Tree has advantages in speed and interpretability but is susceptible to overfitting. SVM shows good performance on high-dimensional datasets but is less efficient in computing time. Based on the research results, Random Forest is recommended as the most optimal model for machine learning-based phishing detection. Full article

Aluminum has the advantages of being lightweight and rust-resistant, and having high strength and durability. Aluminum scrap is a recycled material and is reused in its production process, for example, for propellers. Because it is used in conditions that require good durability, a coating that can increase the hardness and strength of aluminum is introduced. This study used the anodization method with a H₂SO₄ electrolyte medium and variations in current density of 0.03 A/cm², 0.035 A/cm², and 0.04 A/cm². The anodization time was 45 min. It was found that the hardness of the specimen increased from the initial hardness of 189 HL. Full article

If an arbitrator employs the use of AI to draft an arbitral award, or legal counsel uses AI and the data are leaked within that process, what is the legal consequence, and what will be the ethical concerns and enforceability issues? As artificial intelligence (AI) is used in every field, it has undoubtedly been used within the legal domain. However, its use should be regulated and balanced as there is an adjudication involved between the parties to decide the rights and obligations of the parties. In recent times, AI in arbitration has revolutionized dispute resolution by enhancing efficiency, automating legal research, and expediting case management. However, its application has a different set of challenges attached to it, particularly concerning due process, algorithmic bias, evidentiary integrity, and the enforceability of AI-assisted arbitral awards. This paper critically examines these legal implications, assessing how AI aligns with Indian arbitration laws and international frameworks. It further explores regulatory safeguards, the balanced and ethical use of AI, and the evolving role of arbitrators and counsels in the era of AI. By addressing these concerns, this paper aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of AI’s impact on the legal landscape of arbitration in India. To conclude, this paper proposes an expressed provision within the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, with respect to disclosure related to the ethical use of AI. Full article

At present, polypharmacy—which is the use of several medications to treat a single case at the same time—has become a fairly common medical practice, particularly in chronic illnesses or with older patients. But this relatively ‘faster’ form of treatment brings the problem of cumulative polypharmacy, which occurs when there is an increase in drug–drug interactions (DDIs) due to the large number of medicines taken. While the aftermath, such as the reduction in strength of medication taken or catastrophic and fatal responses to certain drugs, is clearly not worth the initial effort put into trying to ease the condition, attempting to resolve these issues requires excessive research. With these difficulties in mind, we describe our research that uses graph neural networks (GNNs) focused on DDI prediction by modeling drugs and their interactions in the form of graphs. The research is divided into two parts. In this research, the relevant literature is reviewed in order to understand how modern GNN-based algorithms can be applied for the detection of optimal drugs.

In the automotive domain, object detection is pivotal for enhancing safety and autonomy through the identification of various objects of interest. However, insights into the influential image pixels in the detection process are often lacking. Recognizing these significant regions within the image not only enriches our qualitative understanding of the model’s functionality but also empowers us to refine and optimize its performance. Employing Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI), we present an XAI component in this paper. This component explains the predictions made by a pre-trained object detection model for a given image by generating heatmaps that highlight the most critical regions in the image for the detected objects.

Le Lectier pears (hereafter, Pears) are graded based on appearance, requiring farmers to inspect tens of thousands in a short time before shipment. To assist in this process, a grading support system was developed. The existing cloud-based system used mobile devices to capture images and analyzed them with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and texture-based algorithms. However, communication delays and algorithm inefficiencies resulted in a 30 s execution time, posing a problem. This paper proposes an edge computing-based system using Mask R-CNN for appearance deterioration detection. Processing on edge servers reduces execution time to 5–10 s, and 39 out of 51 Pears are accurately detected. Full article

Online Courses are one of the most popular ways to learn, but the technology used has a vital effect on the learner. In this study, we will research the prediction of students’ course engagement. International surveys show that students have a 70% interest in joining online learning, and just 30% of students are interested in traditional learning. However, keeping students engaged is one of the most difficult tasks, since low engagement contributes to lower learning outcomes and higher dropout rates. We studied more than 15 papers of existing research, and were able to achieve a 96% accuracy rate, which is a very welcome improvement on previous results. This paper examines machine learning algorithms, including Decision Trees, Random Forest, Gradient Booster, Naive Bayes, and K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), to efficiently predict engagement during online courses. By systematically examining existing published research studies, we identify gaps and limitations of existing methods, such as problems with variant datasets, chances of overtraining, and a lack of accessibility to real-time engagement data.

This study evaluates Fe₃O₄ magnetic biochar synthesized from pecan nutshells for arsenic removal. Surface modification with Fe₃O₄ significantly enhanced arsenic adsorption selectivity and efficiency compared to raw biomass (PM). Synthesis variables (precursor type, particle size, Fe/precursor ratio, N₂) and adsorption conditions (such as concentration, pH, agitation) were investigated. The modified biochar achieved >90% arsenic removal efficiency under various conditions, demonstrating the modification’s critical role. A fuzzy decision network was employed to analyze experimental results and identify optimal conditions for maximizing performance. This approach effectively leverages knowledge for scenario-specific optimization, offering a sustainable strategy for advanced water treatment materials. Full article

With the rise in motor vehicles, driving safety is a major concern, and autonomous driving technology plays a key role in enhancing safety. Vision-based lane departure warning systems are essential for accurate navigation, focusing on lane line detection. This paper reviews the development of such systems and highlights the limitations of traditional image processing. To improve lane line detection, a dataset from Roboflow Universe will be used, incorporating techniques like priority pixels, least squares fitting for positioning, and a Kalman filter for tracking. YOLOv5 will be enhanced with a di-versified branch block (DBB) for better multi-scale feature extraction and an improved segmentation head inspired by YOLACT (You Only Look At CoefficienTs) for precise lane line segmentation. A multi-scale feature fusion mechanism with self-attention will be introduced to improve robustness. Experiments will demonstrate that the improved YOLOv5 outperforms other models in accuracy, recall, and mAP@0.5. Future work will focus on optimizing the model structure and enhancing the fusion mechanism for better performance. Full article

Seawater impact poses increasing challenges to coastal road infrastructure, creating urgent needs for a comprehensive understanding of current research trends and knowledge gaps to enhance infrastructure resilience and sustainability. This study employs a combined systematic literature review (SLR) and bibliometric analysis using PRISMA methodology to examine seawater-impacted road infrastructure research from 1952 to 2025. An initial dataset of 185 articles from 150 sources was filtered to 47 articles for detailed analysis, covering research by 481 authors with a 0.95% annual growth rate. Bibliometric analysis revealed significant geographic disparities, with only 13.51% of international collaborations. The United States, China, and Japan emerged as leading contributors, while Norway demonstrated the highest impact with 39.00 citations per article. Eight critical themes were identified in pavement management and infrastructure resilience, showing a shift toward technology-based solutions, including real-time monitoring technologies, sustainable materials, and adaptive management strategies. Despite growing emphasis on technological solutions, significant research gaps persist in understanding road structure–ecosystem interactions and developing comprehensive long-term monitoring methods. The study indicates an urgent need for increased international collaboration and interdisciplinary approaches combining civil engineering with environmental science to effectively address coastal road infrastructure challenges and enhance global sustainability.

This research investigates the multi-objective optimization of micro-milling processes for the titanium alloy Ti-3Al-2.5V (grade 9) through the application of grey relational analysis. The incorporation of nanometer-sized particles in hybrid machining lubricants plays a crucial role in improving heat transfer during machining. The approach aims to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of micro-milling by addressing various performance metrics simultaneously, leading to better machining results for this titanium alloy. Additionally, the integration of nanoparticles into the machining lubricant significantly improves the lubrication properties, reducing friction during the machining process. The study analyzed four machining parameters: machining speed, rate of feed, axial depth of cut, and the weight percentage concentration of hybrid machining lubricants Multi-wall Carbon Nano Tube and Alumina Oxide (MWCNT and Al₂O₃). The machining nanolubricant was formulated by adding 1% and 2% volume concentrations of MWCNT and Al₂O₃ nanoparticles to the industrial machining fluid. In this machining context, the friction between the machining tool and the Ti-3Al-2.5V work piece is a vital factor influencing the output quality. The results demonstrate that the chosen machining parameters and machining lubricants have a direct impact on the coefficient of friction and surface roughness. The study concludes that utilizing machining nanolubrication for machining Ti-3Al-2.5V (grade 9) significantly enhances the quality compared with traditional machining lubricants. Full article

The automated classification of skin diseases has the potential to significantly enhance patient outcomes through early and targeted treatment. In this study, we compared a custom convolutional neural network (CNN) with three transfer learning architectures—ResNet50, DenseNet201, and Inception—for classifying nine different dermatological conditions. The models were trained on the publicly available FYP Skin Disease Dataset, which consists of 4500 images of both prevalent and serious skin diseases including melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. We conducted extensive performance analysis using accuracy, loss curves, confusion matrices, and multi-class ROC analysis. Our findings indicate that the custom CNN achieved 100% validation accuracy, followed by DenseNet201 at 99% and Inception at 98%, with ResNet50 lagging at 44%. These results highlight the potential of both custom architectures and transfer learning models in dermatological image analysis, which have significant implications for researchers and clinicians seeking viable automated solutions for skin disease diagnosis.

This study examines research trends and identifies key gaps relevant to the field of structural safety and resilience; additionally, a systematic literature review (SLR) guided by the PRISMA methodology was conducted, analyzing 4188 documents ranging from 1975 to 2025. The research revealed key trends, including a focus on various aspects of the structural stability and resilience of buildings affected by earthquakes through analysis of various innovative methods and materials. The present study encompasses work describing the use of steel–wood composite columns to improve building stability, assessment of the impact of wood accumulation on bridges during floods, and the effect of debris flow on the stability of check dams. In addition, this study also evaluates the seismic performance of school buildings in Mexico, a method of diagnosing cracks in concrete dams, and the application of recycled materials from old tires for seismic disaster mitigation. Acoustic emission monitoring methods in medieval towers and the design of seismic isolation systems with variable damping are also discussed. Bibliometric analysis highlighted increased collaboration and a thematic shift towards green and data-driven approaches. However, significant gaps were identified. The findings explain that the use of innovative materials and methods can improve the stability and resistance of building structures with respect to dynamic loads, such as those associated with earthquakes and floods. The findings provide guidance for the design and maintenance of safer and more sustainable infrastructure in the future. Full article

The integration of digital technology into education has significantly shifted traditional teaching methods toward more interactive and student-centered learning. This literature review investigates the use of Powtoon, a web-based animation platform, as a creative learning medium in elementary thematic education. The study aims to explore how Powtoon enhances student motivation, engagement, and academic outcomes through interactive visuals and storytelling. A review of previous studies reveals that Powtoon is effective across various subjects, including science, mathematics, language, and social studies, improving student focus, knowledge retention, and learning enjoyment.

There is large scale data collected from the various Wi-Fi networks on modern university campuses which contribute to observing student behavioral patterns. This paper explores the use of Wi-Fi connection information and internet browsing habits to forecast student dining preferences, improving data-driven models for campus eating service optimizations. This study combines spatial–temporal features with browsing behavior analysis and employs advanced machine learning techniques to develop a multi-modal learning framework. Moreover, when Chinese consumers go out to eat, the analysis of anonymized Wi-Fi data also reveals considerable relationships among digital footprints and dining choices using a predictive model that can reach an accuracy level between 84 and 88%. The discoveries assist in the advancement of educational data mining and are beneficial for the real-world optimization of campus services, all under strong privacy protection using an end-to-end comprehensive data protection framework.

In the era of rapid digital transformation, efficient network bandwidth allocation is vital for ensuring high-quality service and seamless network operations, particularly in environments with dynamic traffic patterns. This study proposes a novel approach to optimize bandwidth allocation using a Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN) algorithm. The research utilizes a dataset sourced from Kaggle that has been modified to focus on prioritization during resource allocation and employs a preprocessing pipeline for consistency across network parameters. The BPNN model is trained with normalized data and evaluated using metrics such as Mean Squared Error (MSE) and R² score. The results, with an MSE of 0.1637 and an R² score of 0.9920, demonstrate high accuracy and minimal error in predicting bandwidth allocation. Furthermore, training and validation loss trends confirm the model’s convergence and effectiveness in real-time applications. The study underscores the integration of machine learning with network optimization principles, offering a robust framework for dynamic bandwidth management and resource-efficient network operations.

A landslide disaster is one of the many natural disasters that often occur in Indonesia. This disaster is one of the difficult to avoid disasters, so it often causes fatalities and large material losses. Currently, mitigation systems for landslide disasters are still less effective in their use. Early warning systems that can give information about the landslide through smartphones could be the best solution for this digital era, because society generally has smartphones and is connected through the internet. The early warning system also demanded the ability to decide the landslide status. Fuzzy logic is one of many types of artificial intelligence used as a decision support system, which is similar to human logic. Therefore, it is necessary to build an early warning system against landslides based on the Internet of Things (IoT) that can determine the status of landslides that occur based on the soil slope using the MPU6050 accelerometer sensor and moisture data using the soil moisture sensor. This system can later monitor the slope and moisture data of the soil and can transmit landslide status on smartphone applications connected to the internet. The result of this research is an IoT-based landslide early warning system that can transmit landslide and soil moisture data and transmit landslide status in the form of push notifications on smartphones using the Blynk application.

This study describes the creation of an intelligent surveillance system based on deep learning that aims to improve real-time security monitoring by automatically identifying suspicious activity. By using cutting-edge computer vision techniques, the suggested system overcomes the drawbacks of conventional surveillance that depends on human observation to spot irregularities in public spaces. The system successfully completes motion detection, trajectory analysis, and emotion recognition by using the YOLOv8 model for object detection and DeepFace for facial emotion analysis. Roboflow is used for dataset annotation, model training with optimized parameters, and visualization of object trajectories and detection confidence. The findings show that abnormal behaviors can be accurately identified, with noteworthy observations made about the emotional expressions and movement patterns of those deemed to be threats. Even though the system performs well in real time, issues like misclassification, model explainability, and a lack of diversity in the dataset still exist. Future research will concentrate on integrating multimodal data fusion, deeper models, and temporal sequence analysis to further enhance detection robustness and system intelligence. Full article

The heart is essential to human life, so it is important to protect it and understand any kind of damage it can have. All the diseases related to hearts leads to heart failure. To help address this, a tool for predicting survival is needed. This study explores the use of several classification models for forecasting heart failure outcomes using the Heart Failure Clinical Records dataset. The outcome contrasts a deep learning (DL) model known as the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with many machine learning models, including Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Decision Tree (DT), and Naïve Bayes (NB). Various data processing techniques, like standard scaling and Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE), are used to improve prediction accuracy. The CNN model performs best by achieving 99%. In comparison, the best-performing ML model, Naïve Bayes, reaches 92.57%. This shows that deep learning provides better predictions of heart failure, making it a useful tool for early detection and better patient care. Full article

This study explores the mechanical characteristics of 3D-printed specimens fabricated using TPU-95A filament, with a focus on the influence of key printing variables—temperature, speed, and layer height—on tensile strength, toughness, and surface hardness. Through systematic testing, the tensile evaluation revealed a peak tensile strength of 329.02 kgf/cm² and toughness of 1.56 under conditions of elevated temperatures and optimized layer configurations. Similarly, the hardness assessment indicated a maximum average value of 74.9 Shore A, emphasizing the substantial effect of process parameters on material integrity and resilience. A detailed variance analysis confirmed the pivotal roles of temperature and layer height in enhancing mechanical properties. Using a statistical optimization approach, optimal printing conditions were identified, demonstrating that higher temperatures, moderate speeds, and reduced layer heights significantly improve the balance between strength, flexibility, and durability. These findings contribute to the development of tailored fabrication strategies, offering practical insights for applications where precision and mechanical reliability are critical. Full article

Software defects are natural quality characteristics of software that are difficult to eliminate completely, even with concerted efforts. In addition to Bayes Net, in this study, C4.5 Decision Tree, Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), and Random Forests (RFs) are used. Moreover, an ensemble strategy with GNB, BNB, RF, and MLP is proposed to enhance the prediction accuracy. Results from empirical evaluations indicate that the F1 score, accuracy, precision, and recall of this strategy are higher than those of any individual approach, providing strong evidence for the ensemble model as an effective method for improving defect prediction performance. The ensemble approach could be a promising pathway to bolster the software quality process, mainly in machine learning-based fault prediction. Full article

The World Health Organization estimates that between 10% and 20% of young people worldwide suffer from mental health problems during adolescence, which is a crucial time for many youngsters. Adolescent mental health cases have increased by 31% as a result of the COVID-19 epidemic, which has made the issue much worse. Due to stigma, restricted access, and challenges in evaluating emotional states, traditional mental health care frequently faces challenges. The goal of this research is to create a chatbot system that uses machine learning and natural language processing (NLP) to identify emotional distress and mental health issues in teenagers at an early age. The study offers a safe environment for teenagers to express their emotions while examining chatbot interactions to find trends suggestive of mental health problems. To improve the efficacy of the chatbot, the methodology integrates quantitative and qualitative techniques, utilizing data from open datasets and mental health services. Sentiment analysis and emotion identification are important strategies that enable the chatbot to react sympathetically. By offering easily available support and highlighting the role of technology in addressing adolescent mental health issues, this project ultimately seeks to enhance youth mental health outcomes.

Concrete is a widely used construction material. This research investigates the effect of adding tree branch waste and stone dust as substitutes for coarse and fine aggregates on concrete’s physical and mechanical properties. The results show that these additives significantly impact weight and compressive strength. The weight comparison for 10% additive concrete was 7.28 kg at 7 and 14 days, while for 20% additive concrete, it was 7.02 kg at 7 days and 7.06 kg at 14 days. Normal concrete weighed 7.50 kg at 7 days and 7.66 kg at 14 days. The planned compressive strength (K250 or F’c: 20 MPa) for 28 days was met, with samples containing 10% and 20% additives exceeding the planned strength. However, increased use of these materials led to a reduction in compressive strength. Therefore, the addition of tree branches and stone dust should be limited to 10%, as the highest compressive strength was obtained at this percentage. This research suggests that using tree branch waste and stone dust as partial substitutes for aggregates can reduce concrete’s weight while maintaining its strength. Limiting the addition to 10% is recommended for optimal results. Full article

Predictive analytics has emerged as a powerful tool for improving decision-making in healthcare, particularly in disease prediction and patient management. However, conventional architectures may find it difficult to handle various features of healthcare data, such as high dimensionality and ineffective measures to handle unstructured data. This work examines the shortcomings of the traditional ML strategy by fusing deep learning approaches with the existing models in an improved predictive performance. Specifically, we propose three hybrid models: (1) Random Forest and Neural Networks (RF + NN), (2) XGBoost and Neural Networks (XGBoost + NN), and (3) Autoencoder and Random Forest (Autoencoder + RF). The goal is to compare these models’ ability to predict healthcare outcomes using standard performance metrics, which include the measures of accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. An important research gap revealed from the literature review is that most models tend to have higher precision at the cost of recall and vice versa. Our proposed hybrid models combine the strengths of feature selection from traditional algorithms (RF, XGBoost) with the advanced pattern recognition capabilities of Neural Networks (NNs) and autoencoders, aiming for a more balanced predictive performance. The RF + NN model produces the highest accuracy at 96.81%, with precise accuracy at 90.48% and accurate precision at 70.08%. Nevertheless, the accuracy of a slightly lower XGBoost + NN model of 96.75% showed better actual capability of identifying true positives than false positives, with 73.54% recall. From our results it is evident that the best model in terms of precision was the Autoencoder + RF model, with a precision of 91.36%; it was however the worst in recall, with only 66.22%. Accordingly, these findings imply that for the same level of predictive accuracy, the hybrid models are better in handling imbalanced problems and provide directions for better healthcare predictive systems in the future.

In today’s digital economy, electronic payments are essential to supporting financial transactions. However, the danger of fraud also rises with company complexity and volume. This study uses machine learning and advanced analytics to investigate fraud detection in electronic payments. Using business tools like accounts, account types, and balance sheets, we spot patterns and trends connected to illicit activities. To detect and identify fraud, our study uses pre-existing data, machine learning algorithms, and infrastructure. The author has assessed the performance of several models, such as logistic regression, random forests, and k-nearest neighbor models, using criteria like accuracy, precision, and recall. To determine the most important characteristics for fraud detection, the author also conducts a significance analysis and examines the model’s interpretability. According to the current study’s findings, financial institutions and payment systems will be able to identify fraud more efficiently and gain an improved knowledge of the traits of commercial fraud.

There are two major problems that researchers must contend with when dealing with machine learning in the medical field. The first being the ever-changing nature of what is considered good practice, and the lack of available data to train. The change in opinion on what is considered good practice requires an ongoing effort to update the machine learning models. This requires a concept called continual learning, which requires that researchers must combat against the problem of a model forgetting previously learned information and the balancing of bigger classes and newer smaller classes. Usually, when new information is introduced, a model must be retrained, which threatens the previously gained knowledge. The training is then difficult because of the lack of data. However, when dealing with medications they can become irrelevant to use. When such things happen when dealing with the standard machine learning models, the entire model needs to be retrained in order to remove the specific medication. This causes even more difficulties, because patient data are heavily protected and there is the chance that the dataset will not be available for training again in the future. While most papers focus on medical imaging and diagnosis, medicine does not end with diagnosis. We have an elderly population that is growing and not enough doctors are are available. To have everyone be able to see specialists, or even a doctor, is becoming even harder. To combat these issues, we need to have models in use that we can update continuously to help bridge the gap of care. We propose a method that can be trained continuously in order to easily remove outdated medications. Full article

Cervical cancer has emerged as the most prevalent and deadly illness affecting women across the globe. Researchers are trying their best to detect this life-threatening illness accurately. In view of this only, machine learning approaches, multiple medical procedures, statistical models, etc., have been utilized to provide optimized and efficient treatment to all patients to protect their lives. In this study, we have compared previously proposed frameworks for the early detection of cervical cancer and analysis of patients’ data security. We demonstrated the respective benefits and limitations, investigated the datasets and the type of data employed, and analyzed the accuracy of the healthcare procedures utilized for patients in terms of improving management. The limitations of reviewed studies show that more reliable proposals need to be presented by researchers in future. Based on this only, it is concluded that the accurate and early detection of cervical cancer shows a tradeoff with patients’ data security while communicating across healthcare institutions.

Project monitoring is an important element in project management that aims to ensure project implementation in accordance with the plan, schedule, budget, and objectives that have been set. The ineffectiveness of project monitoring can cause various problems, such as delays, cost overruns, inappropriate quality of results, and poor communication between stakeholders. To address these issues, technological advances such as YOLO (You Only Look Once) and Reinforcement Learning (RL) offer innovative solutions through real-time visual detection and data-driven automated decision making. This research aims to develop a web-based project monitoring system that integrates YOLO to detect activities in the field, such as workers and heavy equipment, and RL to provide optimal recommendations for resource management. The implementation of the system is expected to increase efficiency, reduce risk, and support more accurate decision making. Based on previous research, the adoption of AI technology in project monitoring is proven to reduce operational costs and increase productivity. This web-based system is designed to provide flexibility and accessibility, allowing users to monitor projects in real-time through an interactive interface. The expected outcome of this research is the creation of an effective technological solution to improving the efficiency of construction project management, as supported by the findings of previous research that shows the great potential of AI in the construction sector.

Electrocardiogram reports are an important component of cardiovascular diagnostics, routinely generated in hospitals and clinical settings to monitor cardiac activity and guide medical decision-making. ECG reports often consist of structured waveform data accompanied by free-text interpretations written by clinicians. Although the waveform data can be analyzed using signal processing techniques, the unstructured text component contains rich, contextual insights into diagnoses, conditions, and patient-specific observations that are not easily captured by conventional methods. Extracting meaningful patterns from clinical narratives poses significant challenges. In this work, we present an unsupervised framework for exploring and analyzing ECG diagnostic reports using transformer-based language modeling and clustering techniques. We use the domain-specific language model BioBERT to encode text-based ECG reports into dense vector representations that capture the semantics of medical language. These embeddings are subsequently standardized and subjected to a series of clustering algorithms, including KMeans, hierarchical clustering, DBSCAN, and K-Medoids, to uncover latent groupings within the data.

Machine learning (ML) in cloud architectures is used to manage powerful servers that run distributed systems over the internet. ML predicts the workload and traffic from cloud consumers and allocates resources according to the demand. ML in cloud architectures is there to improve performance and increase availability to manage cloud computing resources. The combination of ML and cloud architectures balances the workload and ensures reliability. This research discusses cloud architectures that use ML to run different algorithms to predict the improvement in the cloud architectures by using a cloud computing resource dataset. The dataset is used with different classifiers with the same ML framework that is discussed in this paper; the ML framework has a sequence to provide the steps of the model training and testing and uses different techniques and methods for the better performance of the cloud architectures. The researchers used various ML techniques to create a model for predicting the workload. To enhance the model’s performance and flexibility, we used a regression-based dataset that was recently updated, which was used with different ML approaches to predict better performance in the cloud architectures. By using the Generalized Linear Model, we achieved the highest performance. The R² value refers to the goodness of the model and its performance. Using cloud datasets and machine learning with cloud architectures enhances performance using the different techniques in this paper, resulting in a more generalizable model with overfitting risk. This study focuses on refining the execution of cloud architectures with the help of ML. Full article

SMK XYZ is a private school under Yayasan Pembina Pendidikan Doa Bangsa (YPPDB) which was established in 2011. The school has several expertise programs, including Software Engineering, Institutional Accounting and Finance, and Motorcycle Business Engineering. Assessing the success of a school is an important thing that greatly affects the development of students in the learning process to achieve their goals. Assessment of teachers’ work should be performed using appropriate and efficient methods. To improve teacher performance, the development of an agenda monitoring and assessment system based on the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method can be an effective alternative. This system is designed to assist school management in monitoring teacher activities objectively and measurably, as well as providing clear assessments based on certain criteria such as attendance, tardiness, student evaluation results, and innovation in learning. The SAW method is used to calculate the final score of teacher performance by summing up the weighted values of each normalized criterion. In this case study, the system helps decision makers to recognize the strengths and weaknesses of each teacher, so that related recommendations for competency development can be given. The implementation of this system demonstrates increased responsibility in appraisal and motivates teachers to improve their performance according to set standards. Full article

Malware remains one of the most critical threats in the digital ecosystem, targeting both mobile and desktop platforms. Traditional signature-based detection techniques face limitations in identifying polymorphic and zero-day variants. This study proposes a static analysis-based approach using machine learning classifiers, focusing on Random Forest, Decision Tree, and Support Vector Machine (SVM). The dataset was collected from MalwareBazaar, and static features such as PE headers, entropy, and API calls were extracted. Experimental results show that SVM achieved the highest accuracy at 53.2%, while Decision Tree obtained the best F1-score at 61.1%, indicating stronger recall capabilities. Random Forest provided balanced results across all metrics with a shorter training time of 0.23 s, highlighting its efficiency for practical use. These findings demonstrate that while no single classifier dominates across all metrics, Random Forest offers a trade-off between performance and efficiency, making it suitable for large-scale static malware detection systems.

Breast cancer continues to be a serious concern for global health, especially when proper treatment is time-sensitive. This research contributes a novel method to improve breast cancer detection in ultrasound images by employing a deep learning technique that integrates UNet and Convolution Neural Networks(CNN) architectures. For tumor segmentation within breast ultrasound images, UNet has been used, alongside a CNN that classifies the resulting tumor as benign or malignant and performs feature extraction. When evaluated on the ‘Dataset_BUSI_with_GT’, the model was found to be reliable across varying conditions, achieving high sensitivity (97.44%) and accuracy (95.24%), scores better than those ofexisting approaches. The developed system is composed of an imaging module, image upload, preprocessing, inference, result display, and feedback, providing non-interrupted service and enhancing user-centered functionalities. Continuous improvement capabilities allow the system to redefine new image changes, sustaining reliability in examinations and clinical settings. Compared to other methodologies, the proposed model demonstrates superior accuracy alongside less computational resources, translating to reduced diagnostic human error while optimizing the workflow in primary healthcare. Future work could includethe application of multimodal imaging, deploy real-time imaging, and increase its interpretability to strengthen its use in medical diagnosis. Full article

Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) encounter significant hurdles in anomaly detection owing to their dynamic characteristics, scalability demands, and privacy issues. This research presents a new Adaptive Cluster-Based Federated Learning (ACFL) architecture to tackle these challenges. In contrast to conventional machine learning models, the ACFL framework dynamically organizes cars through the Context-Aware Cluster Manager (CACM), which adjusts clusters according to real-time variables like mobility, node density, and communication patterns. Each cluster utilizes Modified Temporal Neural Networks (MTNNs) for localized anomaly detection, employing time-series analysis to improve precision. Federated learning is enabled via the Hierarchical Aggregation Layer (HAL), which effectively consolidates updates across clusters, ensuring scalability and data confidentiality. The proposed framework was assessed in comparison to established machine learning models, including Support Vector Machines (SVM), Random Forest (RF), Logistic Regression (LR), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), and the K-Nearest Neighbors with Kernelized Feature Selection and Clustering(KNN-KFSC) approach, utilizing the VeReMi dataset. Findings demonstrate that ACFL surpasses existing models in identifying abnormalities, including Global Positioning System(GPS)spoofing and Denial of Service (DoS) assaults, exhibiting enhanced accuracy, adaptability, and scalability. This work emphasizes the capability of ACFL to tackle urgent security issues in VANET, facilitating the development of secure next-generation intelligent transportation systems. Full article

Our paper introduces a novel idea of a virtual mouse character driven by gesture detection, eye-tracking, and voice monitoring. This system uses cutting-edge computer vision and machine learning technology to let users command and control the mouse pointer using eye motions, voice commands, or hand gestures. This system’s main goal is to provide users who want a more natural, hands-free approach to interacting with their computers as well as those with impairments that limit their bodily motions, such as those with paralysis—with an easy and engaging interface. The system improves accessibility and usability by combining many input modalities, therefore providing a flexible answer for numerous users. While the speech recognition function permits hands-free operation via voice instructions, the eye-tracking component detects and responds to the user’s gaze, therefore providing exact cursor control. Gesture recognition enhances these features even further by letting users use their hands simply to execute mouse operations. This technology not only enhances personal user experience for people with impairments but also marks a major development in human–computer interaction. It shows how computer vision and machine learning may be used to provide more inclusive and flexible user interfaces, therefore improving the accessibility and efficiency of computer usage for everyone.

This study introduces a palette-based method for the recolorization of cartoon images by combining the k-means clustering algorithm and gradient analysis. The method aims to preserve the visual identity of the original image while allowing flexibility in color manipulation. By segmenting colors using k-means clustering, the approach produces a representative color palette reflecting the dominant colors in the image. Gradient analysis is then applied to maintain smooth color transitions and aesthetic consistency. This palette serves as the basis for the recolorization process, enabling intuitive color adjustments without disrupting the visual structure of the image. Experimental results demonstrate that this method can produce recolorized images with high visual quality, preserve original image details, and provide users with greater control over the resulting colors.

Communication plays a vital role in conveying messages, expressing emotions, and sharing perceptions, becoming a fundamental aspect of human interaction with the environment. For individuals with hearing impairments, sign language serves as an essential communication tool, enabling interaction both within the deaf community and with non-deaf individuals. This study aims to bridge this misconception by developing an iconic language recognition system using the Deep Learning-based YOLO-v11 algorithm. YOLO-v11, a state-of-the-art object detection algorithm, is known for its speed, accuracy, and efficiency. The system uses image recognition to identify hand gestures in ASL and translates them into text or speech, facilitating inclusive communication. The accuracy of the training model is 94.67%, and the accuracy of the testing model is 93.02%, indicating that the model has excellent performance in recognizing sign language from the training and testing datasets. Additionally, the model is very reliable in recognizing the classes “Hello”, “I Love You”, “No”, and “Thank You” with a sensitivity close to or equal to 100%. This research contributes to advancing communication equality for individuals with hearing impairments, promoting inclusivity, and supporting their integration into society. Full article

Real-time emotion recognition from video poses significant challenges in handling large-scale and continuously growing datasets. Traditional relational databases often fail to meet the scalability and efficiency requirements of such applications. MongoDB, a NoSQL database, offers significant advantages in scalability, speed, and data management, making it an ideal choice for video-based emotion recognition systems. This paper explores the use of MongoDB to optimize the management of video data in real-time emotion recognition, leveraging its features like sharding, indexing, and replication. We demonstrate how MongoDB’s advanced features enhance the performance and reliability of emotion recognition systems by reducing latency and processing time. Through experimental results, we show that MongoDB outperforms traditional relational databases and other NoSQL solutions in handling large datasets efficiently. Future work will explore integrating MongoDB with cloud platforms to improve scalability and incorporate advanced deep learning algorithms for better emotion recognition accuracy. Full article

The development of chatbots to access database services and information systems has triggered a lot of research on frameworks for service development, including the development of ISONER (Information System On Internet Messenger). This framework consists of multiple phases including pattern recognition, query processing, and response generation. In its implementation, the framework develops pattern recognition services that are currently based on Natural Language Processing (NLP). Improved pattern recognition algorithms enhance the system’s ability to accurately interpret user intent. The pattern recognition used in this research utilizes built-in plugins from MySQL, namely N-gram and Full-Text Search, which can be run directly on the MySQL engine to reduce latency and do not require another programming language. The FTS and fourgram algorithms gave the best results when applied on 100 test data points, with a threshold of 0.91, accuracy of 91%, precision of 99%, and recall of 92%; the average computation time was 19 s for 100 test data points and 2 min 49 s for 1000 data points tested simultaneously.

The development of information technology has transformed various aspects of life, including education, by making it more flexible, interactive, and accessible. One platform that plays an important role in this transformation is YouTube, a video sharing platform that allows users to upload, watch, share, and comment on videos online. YouTube is not only a medium of entertainment, but also a significant source of additional learning, especially in higher education such as the Informatics Engineering Department. The platform provides various learning materials, such as programming tutorials, computer network concepts, and software development, which can be accessed anytime and anywhere. YouTube’s advantages lie in its accessibility and the ability for users to repeat videos, making it easier to understand complex material. However, using YouTube as a learning resource also has its challenges, such as the difficulty in finding relevant and high-quality content, as well as the variety of academic standards used in the delivery of the material. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of YouTube as an additional learning media and provide recommendations for the best channels for Informatics Engineering students. Factors, such as the number of views, the number of subscribers, the frequency of uploading new content, and the background of the content creator, are considered in channel selection. The Weighted Product (WP) method in the Decision Support System (SPK) is used to evaluate the effectiveness of YouTube based on predetermined standards. The research results are expected to provide recommendations for the most relevant and high-quality YouTube channels so as to improve students’ understanding of educational materials and optimize the use of digital learning resources.

Predicting vehicle maintenance is an important task to reduce downtime and cost. Traditional methods based on mileage and manufacturer direction can lead to maintenance at an early stage or too late. By leveraging machine learning, we can predict maintenance in a better way that can save time and cost effectively. In our paper, we have used machine learning models to predict the maintenance needs based on vehicle features. We have an imbalanced dataset, which contains information about 50,000 vehicles; first, we balanced it using SMOTE (generated new sample points and increased the size up to 80,000). After addressing the imbalance dataset challenge, we have applied several algorithms, including Random Forest, Decision Tree, gradient booster, naïve Bayes and KNN. Decision tree perform maximum performs well on both imbalanced and balanced data samples and achieves an accuracy of 99.97%. These finding highlights the importance of machine learning in predicting vehicle maintenance to save cost and downtime. Full article

The uniqueness of traditional houses in Kasepuhan Sinar Resmi lies in the use of natural materials. However, over time, this uniqueness has become increasingly rare. The contributing factors include a lack of public awareness about the importance of preserving traditional house culture, the absence of standardized designs, uncertainty regarding the quantity of required building materials, and difficulties in sourcing materials. If left unaddressed, these issues could lead to the loss of the uniqueness of traditional houses. This study employs observation methods to produce designs that align with ancestral traditions, interviews to gather detailed information, and structural analysis based on SNI 7973:2013 standards using the SAP2000 application. These approaches aim to determine effective and safe wooden material dimensions in accordance with Indonesian standards. The primary goal of this research is to produce a traditional house design that meets both cultural and national standards, serving as a guideline for the Kasepuhan Sinar Resmi community in building traditional houses. Additionally, the findings are expected to serve as a reference for policymakers in providing resources for building materials, supporting the preservation of these unique traditional houses.

Diabetes, a chronic metabolic disease marked by elevated blood glucose levels, affects millions of people globally. A lower quality of life and a markedly higher chance of potentially deadly consequences, such as heart disease, renal failure, and other organ dysfunctions, are closely linked to it. In order to effectively manage diabetes and avoid serious consequences, early detection and ongoing monitoring are essential. Remote health monitoring has emerged as a viable and promising option for proactive healthcare due to the development of contemporary technology, particularly in the areas of wearables and mobile computing. In this work, we suggest a thorough and sophisticated framework for remote monitoring that is intended to automatically predict, identify, and manage diabetes risks. To facilitate real-time data collection analysis and tailored feedback, the system makes use of the integration of smartphones, wearable sensors, and specialized medical equipment. In addition to enhancing patient engagement and lowering the strain on conventional healthcare infrastructures, our suggested model aims to assist patients and healthcare providers in maintaining improved glycemic control. We employed a tenfold stratified cross-validation approach to assess the efficacy of our framework and the results showed remarkable performance metrics. A score of 79.00 percent for clarity (specificity) 87.20 percent for sensitivity, and 83.20 percent for accuracy were all attained by the system. The outcomes show how our framework can be a dependable and scalable remote diabetes management solution, opening the door to more intelligent and easily accessible healthcare systems around the world.

Oranges are the most used fruits in Pakistan. Ensuring quality in oranges will definitely enhance customer satisfaction, and it will do wonders with respect to marketing. In the old days, this consisted of physical inspection with one’s hands and laboratory tests that were very slow and inaccurate in various cases and whose quality was not admissible for any large-scale application. The projected straightforward and simple method identifies pertinent features such as acidity, vitamin C, texture, and color. We used random forest, decision tree, KNN, and naive Bayes, with which we acquired 91.1%, 93.4%, 92.32%, and 97.67% of the data correctly, where naive Bayes performed the best. These methods induce speed, accuracy, and scalability for quality assurance in oranges and are feasible for use in citrus farming. The future will be focused on developing low-cost approaches for smallholder growers and dealers working towards revolutionizing orange quality testing. Full article

Using systematic literature observations, this study explains how 3D printing technology is being applied to innovative sustainable construction (Systematic Literature Review). Additive manufacturing, also referred to as 3D printing technology, has greatly increased productivity and adoption in the building sector. The utilization of eco-friendly materials, enhancing sustainable building practices, and the environmental impact of 3D printing technology in comparison to conventional techniques are the three primary areas of attention for this study. By reducing material waste through additive manufacturing methods, 3D printing technology may employ alternative resources like fly ash, geopolymers, and limestone calcined clay (LC3) cement, which lowers carbon emissions considerably, according to observation data. This technology also speeds up the construction process, saves costs, and enables complex architectural designs that are difficult to achieve with conventional methods. There are still a number of issues, though, such as the high upfront expenditures of supplies and equipment and the long-term robustness of the molded structures that are produced. Nevertheless, 3D printing has enormous potential to transform building methods into more effective and ecologically friendly ones as a result of technological advancements and growing knowledge of desirability. This research provides valuable insights for stakeholders in supporting wider application of this technology to achieve sustainable development goals. Full article

Currently, supermarket-run shopping centers, known as “Big Marts,” monitor sales information for every single item in order to predict potential customer demand and update inventory management. Anomalies and general trends are commonly discovered through data warehouse mining using a range of machine learning techniques, and businesses such as Big Marts can use the obtained data to forecast future sales volumes. Compared to other research publications, this one forecasted sales with higher accuracy using machine learning models including KNN (K Nearest Neighbors), Naïve Bayes, and Random Forest. To adapt the proposed business model to anticipated outcomes, the sales forecast is based on Big Mart sales for various stores. Using different machine learning methods, the data that is produced may then be used to predict potential sales volumes for retailers such as Big Marts. The projected cost of the suggested system includes the following identifiers: price, outlet, and outlet location. In order to facilitate data-driven decision-making in retail operations and help Big Marts optimize their business models and effectively satisfy anticipated demand, this study emphasizes the importance of incorporating cutting-edge machine learning approaches.

Ownership rights related to land and property represent a highly contentious matter in areas across Pakistan because female inheritors struggle to assert their property rights due to cultural practices along with unclear procedures and traditional document systems. The present government-controlled systems demonstrate inadequate proficiency along with safety protocols to execute fair inheritance distribution, mainly impacting marginalized populations. This research introduces a blockchain system known as the Land Registration and Inheritance Automation System (LRIAS) which prioritizes the female protection of inheritance privileges. The proposed system includes digitalizing the traditional paper-based land registration and inheritance process. The system ensures blockchain security through the implementation of MetaMask together with Web3.js for Ethereum transactions. The blockchain system distributes inheritances through programmed agreements which follow Shariah validation rules. The LRIAS establishes permanent and free-version records that show who owns land and who the legal heirs are. The system enables women to access their inheritance records through verifiable reliable data which cannot be altered. Through the system, authorities can verify inheritance claims and execute them without bureaucratic interference, which minimizes both legal disputes and family conflicts. Experimental tests show that the LRIAS succeeds in safeguarding women’s land inheritance claims and increasing confidence in legal inheritance procedures. Full article

Ensuring secure and private digital communication is crucial due to increasing threats like data breaches and unauthorized access. We propose a secure end-to-end encrypted chat application using Diffie–Hellman Key Exchange and AES-256 within a microservice architecture. Our system leverages Diffie–Hellman for secure key exchange and AES-256 for efficient symmetric encryption. The microservice architecture ensures scalability and modularity, reducing single points of failure. Tests confirm secure communication with low latency and high throughput. The key exchange process generates an identical shared key in real-time without transmitting a private key, ensuring encryption integrity. Messages are encrypted before transmission and can only be decrypted by the intended users, maintaining confidentiality. This approach offers a robust and scalable solution for secure messaging systems. Full article

For organizations, protecting computer networks has always been a very tough and demanding task. In the current technological era digital resources can now be protected without the need for outdated traditional perimeter-based security techniques. Organizations can use the Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) approach to safeguard and filter their vital digital assets for the company’s benefit. This platform uses sophisticated logical authentication to test the system’s ability to authenticate users, and network monitoring is used to look for possible security flaws and system vulnerabilities. By evaluating users’ interactions with the system and their handling of assigned digital resources, multi-factor authentication filters out unwanted access attempts. Three fundamental access control styles are provided by network segmentation, giving administrators the option to manage access in a democratic, strict, or flexible manner (least privilege approach).

The eye, in a dominant sense, can suffer disorders, such as myopia or nearsightedness, because of VDU radiation exposure. One symptom which is often caused by excessive use of VDU is eye strain. It is usually marked by an increase in the sensitivity of the eyes to light. It is known by comparing the diameter of the normal eye’s pupil and the strained eye’s pupil. People can prevent this disorder by detecting changes in the pupil’s diameter compared to the iris. Changes in the iris and pupil can be detected by using the Hough transformation to detect their shape and train perceptron neural network algorithms to recognize the patterns. As a VDI tool, an eye strain detection application can determine the condition of the user’s eyes. The level of accuracy of the method used to detect the iris and pupil using the Hough transformation is 100% for brown irises, 50% for blue irises, 33.3% for green irises, and it has a 100% accuracy in detecting an iris that is similar to the pupil and a 28.6% accuracy in detecting a pupil that is a similar color to the iris. There is also a difference in the level of accuracy of these case studies when different detection tools are used. The smartphone camera showed a 100% accuracy in detecting the iris and 28.6% accuracy in detecting the pupil. The SLR camera had a 100% accuracy in detecting the irises and 71.4% accuracy in detecting pupils, while the digital camera had 14.28% accuracy in detecting irises and a 0% accuracy in detecting a pupil. The accuracy of the perceptron algorithm in recognizing a pattern of eye strain is 70% with 20 sets of test data. Full article

The design and structural analysis of a cattle slaughtering frame is essential to ensure the safety, efficiency, and durability of the facility. This research was conducted in farms and slaughterhouses to analyze the performance of cattle slaughtering frames under three load variations using the finite element method (FEA). The frame model was created using Autodesk Inventor and simulated in Ansys, considering material properties, dimensions, and frame configuration. The simulated loads represented cow weights ranging from 500 kg/4905 N to 1500 kg/14,715 N. The analysis results showed the distribution of stress and deformation across the frame structure. The highest stress occurred under the 1500 kg/14,715 N load but remained within safe limits. The frame, designed using 1040 carbon steel, demonstrated the ability to withstand a maximum load of 1500 kg/14,715 N with an acceptable safety factor. Although stress and deflection increased with higher loads, the structure stayed within allowable tolerances. These findings confirm that FEA is an effective tool for optimizing structural performance before fabrication. The study provides recommendations for safer and more efficient designs, particularly in selecting materials and reinforcing critical areas. This research is expected to serve as a reference for improving the quality of cattle slaughtering facilities in farms and abattoirs. Full article

The study investigates the use of powerful machine learning approaches to the real-time detection of phishing URLs, addressing a critical cybersecurity concern. The dataset we utilized in this research work was collected from the University of California Irvine (UCI) Machine Learning Repository. It has 235,795 instances with fifty-four distinct parameters. The label class is of binomial type and has only two target classes. We used a range of complex algorithms, including k-nearest neighbor, naive Bayes, decision trees, random forests, and random tree, to assess the discriminative characteristics retrieved from URLs. The random forest classifier beat the other classifiers, reaching the greatest accuracy of 99.99%. The study demonstrates that these models achieve superior accuracy in identifying phishing attempts, significantly outperforming traditional detection methodologies. The findings underscore the potential of machine learning to provide a scalable, efficient, and robust solution for real-time phishing detection. Implementing these innovative platforms to existing security solutions is going to play a critical role in sustaining the protective line against continuously evolving and persistent phishing schemes.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have revolutionized various industries due to their adaptability, efficiency, and capability to operate in diverse environments. However, conventional UAV designs face trade-offs between flight endurance and maneuverability. This study explores the design, analysis, and optimization of a biplane quadrotor UAV, integrating the vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) capabilities of multirotors with the aerodynamic efficiency of fixed-wing aircraft to enhance flight endurance while maintaining high maneuverability. The UAV’s structural design incorporates biplane wings with different NACA airfoil configurations (NACA4415, NACA0015, and NACA0012) to assess their impact on drag reduction, stress distribution, and flight efficiency. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations in ANSYS Fluent 2023 R2 (Canonsburg, PA, USA).reveal that the NACA0012 airfoil achieves the highest drag reduction (75.29%), making it the most aerodynamically efficient option. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) further demonstrates that NACA4415 exhibits the lowest structural stress (95.45% reduction), ensuring greater durability and load distribution. Additionally, a hybrid flight control system, combining Backstepping Control (BSC) and Integral Terminal Sliding Mode Control (ITSMC), is implemented to optimize transition stability and trajectory tracking. The results confirm that the biplane quadrotor UAV significantly outperforms conventional quadcopters in terms of aerodynamic efficiency, structural integrity, and energy consumption, making it a promising solution for surveillance, cargo transport, and long-endurance missions. Future research will focus on material enhancements, real-world flight testing, and adaptive control strategies to further refine UAV performance in practical applications. Full article

Non-player characters (NPCs) play a crucial role in creating engaging and immersive experiences in role playing games (RPGs). Traditional NPC interactions often rely on scripted dialogues, which can limit their ability to adapt dynamically to player input. This study presents a novel framework that enhances NPC interactions by integrating advanced conversational systems. Utilizing Open AI’s natural language processing capabilities, RPG Maker MZ as the game development platform, and JavaScript for customization, the framework introduces context-aware dialogues that respond intelligently to player queries and actions. By bridging the gap between game AI and conversational systems, this approach enables more lifelike and meaningful NPC behavior. Experimental results indicate that the proposed system significantly improves the narrative depth and overall player experience. These findings demonstrate the potential of combining AI-driven chatbots with game development tools to redefine the role of NPCs in modern gaming. Full article

Retinal disorders, such as diabetic retinopathy, cataract, and glaucoma, are among the leading causes of vision loss and blindness worldwide. The use of normal data in diagnostic studies provides a basis for distinguishing between pathological and healthy conditions. Complete and accurate diagnosis of these conditions is essential for effective treatment and prevention of recurrence. This study focuses on the VGG19 model and transfer learning to classify retinal conditions such as normal, diabetic, cataract, and glaucoma. A publicly available dataset from Kaggle consisting of labeled retinal images is used for training and evaluation. The data used in this study consists of 400 retinal images, each consisting of 100 images per class, where there are four classes consisting of normal eyes, cataract, diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. In 50 epochs of training, Adam optimization and softmax function activation, the modeling performance measured using the confusion matrix, including the accuracy, precision, recall and F1 score, achieves accuracy results of 0.91 for 320 training data and 0.88 for 80 validation data. The loss value is 0.18 for the training data and 0.31 for the validation data. Using the test data, the values of the cataract class are 0.94 for precision, 0.8 for recall, and 0.86 for the F1 score. The values are 0.91 for precision, 1.00 for recall and 0.95 for the F1 score in the diabetic retinopathy class. For glaucoma, the scores are 0.74 for precision, 0.85 for recall, and 0.79 for the F1 score. The normal class has scores of 1.00 for precision, 0.9 for recall and 0.95 for the F1 score. Given the performance test results shown above, VGG19 modeling for diagnosing retinal disease provides quite good results. Future research can expand this research by combining additional datasets and exploring other neural network architectures to improve the diagnostic performance. Full article

This study aims to examine the implementation of digital education at SDN Cicurug Caringin and SDIT Nabawi, Sukabumi Regency, with a focus on opportunities, challenges, and gaps in the use of technology for learning at the elementary school level. Using a qualitative approach and a comparative case study design, this study explores the application of digital education in two different contexts, namely in rural areas (SDN Cicurug Caringin) and urban areas (SDIT Nabawi). Data were collected through in-depth interviews with four teachers, two principals, eight students, and four parents, as well as direct observation in both schools. The analysis techniques used are data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing, with Miles and Huberman’s interactive analysis procedures. The results of the study show that SDN Cicurug Caringin faces significant infrastructure constraints, such as a student-computer ratio of 1:15, limited internet connection, and low digital literacy of parents due to their simple socio-economic background. On the other hand, SDIT Nabawi has succeeded in utilizing digital platforms such as Let’s Read to increase students’ interest in reading, although it is limited by teaching time and lack of TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) training for teachers. The main gaps found between the two schools are unequal access to technology, limited teacher capacity to integrate technology, and low parental support in assisting children in digital learning. This study provides empirical evidence that the success of digital education is highly dependent on adequate infrastructure, TPACK-based training for teachers, and parental involvement in digital literacy. The recommendations included infrastructure improvements, TPACK training for teachers, and the implementation of digital literacy workshops for parents to reduce disparities and improve learning outcomes.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) play a crucial role in systematically evaluating employee performance. This study integrates the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method with Design Science Research (DSR) to develop and validate a web-based KPI assessment system for IT Support staff. This system categorizes performance into three key areas: supervisor evaluation, routine tasks, and request-based tasks. SAW is chosen due to its effectiveness in multi-criteria decision-making and the objective ranking of employees. This research presents a scalable and practical solution for performance management through a structured web-based application. A simulation utilizing Bootstrap 5.1 incorporates real-time monitoring, ticket tracking, and KPI dashboards, enhancing data visualization and reporting. The results indicate that the proposed system enhances transparency, minimizes evaluation bias, and supports objective, data-driven decision-making. By integrating SAW within a structured decision support system, this approach fosters standardized performance assessments, ensuring fairer and more consistent employee evaluations. Future work should focus on real-world implementation and empirical validation. Full article

Millions of people worldwide suffer from asthma disease, and frequently, early diagnosis and efficient treatment are needed to enhance patient outcomes. Through an analysis of clinical and environmental characteristics, this study investigates a machine learning algorithm for predicting asthma using decision trees, K-Nearest Neighbors, random forests, and the naïve Bayes method. A dataset related to asthma disease is divided into two parts, with the first part for training consisting of around 70% and the second part for testing comprising 30%. Before dividing the subset, SMOTE is applied to balance the dataset because the dataset is unbalanced. Regarding the four algorithms, the decision tree attained better accuracy than the other algorithms. K-NN (K Nearest Neighbor) attained 97.50% accuracy, random forest attained 97.35% accuracy, naïve Bayes attained 69.99% accuracy, and the decision tree attained 67.65% accuracy. In all algorithms, the decision tree performed with high accuracy, as its prediction is 97.65% correct in detection. These algorithms can be applied to related predictive healthcare tasks.

The quality of mangoes is a crucial factor in both domestic and commercial markets that directly influences consumer satisfaction and economic value. Traditional methods of checking mango quality often involve destructive techniques, which lead to the loss of the fruit in the testing process. This study presents an advanced approach that could predict the quality of mangoes using advance non-destructive methods leveraging machine learning algorithms to predict quality parameters such as ripeness, sweetness and overall freshness without damaging the fruit. In this research, a dataset consisting of various mango samples was collected, with attributes including color, texture, size, weight and acidity levels. Sensors, such as pH sensors (for acidity) and e-nose sensors (for aroma and sweetness detection), were used to gather data, while a combination of machine learning models such as Decision Tree, K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Automated Machine Learning (AutoMLP), Naive Bayes were applied to predict the mangoes’ quality. The accuracy of each model was measured based on its ability to classify mangoes as fresh, ripe, or rotten. The results determine that the AutoMLP model performs the best out of the traditional models, achieving an accuracy of 98.46%, making it the most suitable model for mango quality prediction. The research explains the significance of feature extraction methods, model optimization, and sensor data pretreatment in reaching a high prediction accuracy. Full article

One of the most common problems in modern urban environments is traffic congestion, which leads to unreliable bus arrival times and passenger delays. In this study, we apply various machine learning models to predict traffic density with the aim of improving the accuracy of bus arrival time estimations. A large dataset comprising over 100,000 instances containing attributes such as date and time, maximum, minimum, and average speed, longitude, latitude, and geohash is utilized to classify traffic density as either “1 (High)” or “0 (Low).” We implement and compare five machine learning models: Logistic Regression, Gradient Boosting, Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors (K-NN), and Naïve Bayes. The results demonstrate the potential of machine learning in reducing unnecessary delays and enhancing the accuracy of bus arrival predictions.

Chronic kidney disease is a systemic disease of multiple factors and slow progression, and is now becoming a rapidly changing global pathological problem affecting healthcare systems. Anyone who can go through diagnosis before getting to stage 5 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) or end stage renal failure has a better shot at the result. This work involves 1659 patient records and dependent variables include demographics, lifestyle, and clinical biochemistry of CKD. Based on the supervised techniques of machine learning which are Random Forest, K Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Logistic Regression, and Naïve Bayes, it was agreed that the performance of the model metrics such as accuracy, precision and recall would need to be used. These models were applied, evaluated by means of more or less simple effectiveness parameters including, for instance, accuracy, precision, or recall. Out of these [best algorithm] achieved [accuracy value] % of predictive accuracy in CKD, and so can be used for diagnosis of CKD in its early stage.

Poor-quality milk and the use of chemicals in it can lead to serious health problems, including various diseases and, in some cases, even death for those who consume it. In our society, using such products or contaminated milk that contains chemicals or is of bad quality, often with water or other adulterants, is very common. Based on previous research and existing models, we have improved the process to better and more accurately predict milk quality by using a voting system. This system uses four different algorithms: KNN (K Nearest Neighbour), Naïve Bayes, Random Forest, and Decision Tree. We applied these models to a dataset with almost 1000 samples. To enhance performance, we used brute-force feature selection and a voting process to make accurate decisions. All these procedures were implemented in RapidMiner Studio, resulting in an overall accuracy of 99.69%. Full article

Migraine is a common neurological illness that has a major influence on the quality of life; yet, precise categorization and prediction remain difficult because of its complicated symptoms and multiple triggers. This work investigates the use of advanced machine learning (ML) algorithms to improve migraine diagnosis and prediction, drawing on a large dataset that includes clinical, lifestyle, and environmental aspects. Various machine learning models, such as ensemble methods, deep learning, and hybrid approaches, are tested to see how well they discriminate migraine from other headache conditions and predict migraine episodes. Feature selection approaches are used to identify the most important predictors, which improve model interpretability and performance. Experimental results show that the proposed machine learning framework outperforms established diagnostic methods in terms of classification accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. The study demonstrates how ML-driven solutions may be used to manage migraines in a tailored way, helping medical practitioners with early diagnosis and intervention techniques. My suggested framework, NeuroVote(ensemble model), offers a remarkable 99.99% classification accuracy for migraines. Future studies will concentrate on optimizing models for clinical deployment and incorporating real-time data from wearable technology. Full article

The term heart disease refers to a wide range of conditions that impact the heart and blood vessels. It continues to be a major global cause of morbidity and mortality. The narrowing or blockage of blood vessels, which can result in major medical events like heart attacks, angina (chest pain) or strokes, is a common issue linked to heart disease. In order to lower the risk of serious complications and facilitate prompt medical intervention, early diagnosis and prediction are essential. This study developed predictive models that can precisely identify people at risk by applying a variety of machine learning algorithms to a structured dataset on heart disease. Blood pressure, cholesterol, age, gender, and other health-related indicators are among the 13 essential characteristics that make up the dataset. Numerous machine learning models such as Naïve Bayes, K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree, Random Forest, and others were trained using these features. Using the RapidMiner platform, which offered a visual environment for data preprocessing, model training, and performance analysis, all models were created and assessed. The best-performing model was the Naïve Bayes classifier which achieved an impressive accuracy rate of 90% after extensive testing and comparison of performance metrics like accuracy precision and recall. This outcome shows how well the model can predict heart disease in actual clinical settings. By supporting individualized health recommendations, enabling early diagnosis, and facilitating timely treatment, the effective application of such models can significantly benefit patients and healthcare professionals. Furthermore, heart disease incidence can be considerably decreased by identifying and addressing modifiable risk factors such as high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, smoking, diabetes, and physical inactivity. In summary, machine learning has the potential to improve the identification and treatment of heart-related disorders. This study highlights the value of data-driven methods in healthcare and indicates that incorporating predictive models into standard medical procedures may enhance patient outcomes, lower healthcare expenses, and improve public health administration.

Accurate forecasting and management are crucial as obesity represents a global health issue linked to many chronic diseases. This research examines the use of machine learning algorithms such as Decision Tree, Random Forest, K-NN (K Nearest Neighbor), and Naive Bayes for predicting obesity by using a carefully selected dataset that includes factors like height, weight, dietary choices, and activity levels. The data processing stage involved feature selection, normalizing values, and dealing with missing data to improve the performance of the models. Among all evaluated algorithms, the Decision Tree method outperformed the other algorithms with an accuracy of 98.33%, surpassing Random Forest (98.27%), K-NN (98.03%), and Naive Bayes (90.08%). The findings reveal that tree-based models are more effective for obesity classification than traditional BMI-based approaches. The results indicate that tree-based models perform more accurate classification for obesity than traditional BMI-based methods, which makes them good substitutes. This study demonstrates the potential utility of machine learning in better managing obesity and indicates points of potential improvement, including using more data sources and complex models to increase the accuracy of the predictions.

Achieving a dataset of eye detection comprises a critical task in computer vision and image processing. The primary goal of this dataset is to accurately locate and identify the position of eyes in image or video frames. This process can firstly detect the face region and then focus on the eye regions. In this study, 14,980 examples of physiological signal recordings, most likely from EEG or similar sensors, were included in this dataset, which was created for the analysis of neural or sensor-based movement. The constant signals from specific sensor channels are represented by 14 numerical features (AF3, F7, F3, O1, O2, P7, P8, T8, FC5, FC6, etc.). These characteristics record complex changes in signal designs over time, which could suggest shifts in sensor or neuronal activity. Also, the dataset involves a binary target variable called eye detection, and this shows if an eye-related event—such as turning or an open/closed state—is identified during an individual case. The basic label of this dataset is eye detection in human beings, which has instances of (0,1). The eye detection dataset has 14 features and 14,980 instances that can be utilized for training a model. Full article

The ease of internet access allows people to utilize investment products anywhere and anytime. Stocks are one such investment product, allowing individuals to own a portion of a company. One of the factors influencing stock price fluctuations is technical analysis, which relies on previous stock price data. The Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) algorithm has the advantage of storing data or information over the long term by using gates within LSTM, including the forget gate, input gate, and output gate. Three datasets of stock prices from state-owned enterprise banks, namely Bank BRI, Bank BNI, and Bank Mandiri, were used, totaling 4479 rows of data across the three banks. From these datasets, the optimal values for the LSTM algorithm were obtained, with Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) values ranging from 0.01 to 0.025 and R² values ranging from 0.8 to 0.96.

Fire is a phenomenon that causes physical and material losses to humans. Fires are difficult to predict based on causes and location. Therefore, early detection of fires is necessary to reduce the impact. With these issues, this research aims to detect fires based on CCTV images. So far, there has been no research on fire detection based on CCTV images using a 1D CNN. The detection of fires based on CCTV images will be carried out by creating an algorithm model with a 1D convolutional neural network. This research uses a dataset of fire images based on CCTV that is already pre-processed. An interface display is created for inputting data using the Tkinter library to show a graphical user interface (GUI). The result of the algorithm model process using the 1D convolutional neural network based on accuracy, precision, and recall is 88.43%. The understanding of the actual input data is still low in terms of detecting fires based on CCTV images and requires further processing of CCTV image data. Full article

This research discusses the application of Emotional Artificial Intelligence (EAI) in art learning to enhance the character education of elementary school students. The main objective of this research is to explore how EAI can help improve students’ emotional intelligence as well as support their character development through art learning. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with case studies in several elementary schools that have integrated EAI into the art learning process. The results showed that the use of EAI can improve students’ ability to recognize and manage their emotions. In addition, EAI also plays a role in creating a more supportive learning environment, strengthening students’ social interactions, and improving their empathy and social skills. Nonetheless, challenges include limited technological infrastructure, teacher readiness, and the cost of implementing this technology. This research provides practical recommendations for schools to develop an EAI-based curriculum and support the development of students’ emotional intelligence through a more personalized and adaptive approach.
