Abstract

Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infection remains a significant global health challenge, affecting millions of people, particularly in developing countries. A convolutional neural network (CNN) approach to optimize the detection of STH infections in microscopic images. The study aims to assess the effectiveness of the CNN model in identifying and classifying STH worm eggs accurately. The research employs MATLAB as the primary tool for conducting experiments and validation tests. By implementing image preprocessing techniques to enhance image quality and applying precise segmentation methods, the CNN model is trained on a dataset of microscopic images to learn and classify STH infections effectively. The validation test results demonstrate that the CNN model achieved a high accuracy rate of 92.31% in classifying STH infections. This accuracy surpasses traditional methods, which are time-consuming and susceptible to human errors. This study underscores the importance of integrating artificial intelligence, particularly CNN, into the healthcare domain to support detecting and diagnosing diseases requiring specialized expertise, such as STH infections. The findings of this research can serve as a valuable reference for researchers, medical practitioners, and data scientists in leveraging artificial intelligence to enhance the quality of healthcare services, leading to positive impacts on society worldwide.

Abstract

This study aims to develop a data collection system for measuring soil electrical conductivity (EC) in Paddy Fields using the Wenner measurement principle, with one electrode configuration based on the Veris 3100 measuring machine, and a second electrode configuration with fixed electrodes. The result is a system that measures soil EC using the fixed electrode configuration for more stable results compared to the coulter electrode configuration on the Veris 3100. This system comprises three main components: a 7-inch industrial touchscreen monitor used for real-time monitoring and storing collected data on external memory, a controller that provides reverse direct current (DC) power supply to the electrodes and measures voltage and current parameters on the electrodes, two mechanical configurations including six electrodes in contact with the soil. The system is developed to operate best after soil preparation and before seed sowing. The collected data is processed and compared to actual measurements using an artificial neural network (ANN), resulting in an R2=0.7449, equivalent to linear regression. The system has been successfully installed and operated on a handheld tractor and tested in Paddy Fields on the outskirts of Can Tho City, Vietnam.

Abstract

The field of natural language processing (NLP) and conversational artificial intelligence (AI) has one ingenious application in the psychological space. Depression and anxiety are two major issues that the world is facing, with close to 41% of adults reporting these symptoms in the United States alone, as of December 2020. It has also been observed that most of the people are not open about it. As a result, it is critical to address this issue on a global scale. Developed countries reportedly have 9 psychiatrists per 100,000 people. One way to mitigate this is the use of chatbots. We propose a transformer-based methodology to build a therapy bot that has been trained on a combination of open-domain conversations from a publicly available dataset and therapist-client conversations from a self-constructed dataset. This end-to-end data-driven model shows quality performance in conversations and adds value by aiding in the case of mental health issues. The proposed architecture is proven to be effective in its usability in the psychological space for both single-turn and multi-turn dialogue. The performance of the proposed system shows loss is 0.29 and perplexity is 1.34, both metrics keeps gradually decreasing and it means an improvement in performance of chatbots system.

Abstract

In this paper, we proposed a cost-effective software method to prevent counterfeiting where we used a website, quick-response (QR) code, and hashing. At the early stage of the product, the system will create a unique ID and a password with a random password generator for all products. Then, the password hash would be stored along with the ID in the database. At the same time, the password would be converted into a QR code for each product. The manufacturer will collect the QR code and ID and attach them to the product. When consumers attempt to verify the product, they will enter the website provided by the manufacturer and scan the QR code. After applying the same hash used before, the code will be checked on the database. After a successful check, the product entity will be destroyed and the life of the product ends. This paper contains flowcharts, figures, cost estimation, and a detailed explanation of the system. As it only requires domain hosting, thus the fixed cost of the system is so lower to bear for small enterprises also. We built a similar system using PHP, HTML, JavaScript for websites, and MYSQL for databases.

Abstract

The activated gold-modified electrode surface for self-assembled monolayer (SAM) is suitable for N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC), 16-mercaptohexadecanoic acid (16-MDA), and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS). The various substrates could potentially be used for surface functionalization that binds to one another. Using modified screen-printed gold electrodes, 16-MDA, EDC, and NHS, we developed a self-assembling monolayer. Different 16-MDA concentrations were applied to the surface of a screen-printed electrode surface to enhance the sensitivity of the working electrode. The impact of different EDC, NHS, and 16-MDA concentrations (0.4 M, 0.8 M, 1 M, 1.2 M, 1.4 M, and 1.8 M) and incubation times between 5 and 30 minutes were examined and compared. The binding surface of the screen-printed gold electrode was characterized using the differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) technique. It has been demonstrated that the substrate concentrations at 5 minutes and 30 minutes of incubation time used to have the highest surface coverage and electron transfer rates. This concentration would be utilized in the subsequent experiment to evaluate the binding of various bacterial species. These findings suggest that the SAM in a modified screen-printed gold electrode may be functionalized to detect microorganisms.

Abstract

The current work aims to simulate the operation of the electric motor in one of the most important industrial applications, which is printers, by adopting stepper motors (SM). The performance of the motor is also improved by adopting traditional control systems and adjusting them using the gray wolf optimization (GWO) advanced algorithm. It works to adjust the parameters of a conventional controller. Simulation to reach an appropriate design with high performance, which is obtained by adopting the integral time absolute error (ITAE) function to get rid of the error for transient cases. Transfer function was adopted to represent the engine and two methods of control were used, traditional and advanced optimization. Results demonstrated the possibility of improving performance by adopting both methods with a clear superiority of advanced optimization. Response of SM without controller for close loop shows the values of each rising time equal 130.440 ms, overshoot equal 0.505%, and undershoot equal 1.077%. Response of SM for close loop with proportional-integral-derivative controllers (PIDC) shows the parameters, performance, and robustness of PIDC also the values of overshoot=9.16%, settling time=0.406, and rise time=0.0628 s. Results were developed by using GWO-PID over the previous cases by reducing values of overshoot to zero, rise time, and settling time to 0.00145 and 0.0027 respectively.

Abstract

Sports currently have an impact on human life, especially in the health sector. One way of exercising that is popular with many people today is by exercising at the fitness center. One of them is a fitness center located in Bandung. This research aims to obtain design results that can adapt business processes in fitness centers and can help the company's performance so that its vision and mission are achieved. The current business process is still experiencing problems because business has not yet been integrated with information technology (IT), so a business process proposal was made using the business architecture method. By conducting interviews and observations, data can be collected. From this data, it can be seen that business implementation in fitness centers is not yet optimal, so it is necessary to develop information system technology that is in line with the company's business. This technology development is based on business architecture which produces a company blueprint and is assisted by the open group architecture framework (TOGAF) which can help analyze company needs. The results of this research are in the form of recommendations which will later be proposed so that benefits for the company can be achieved more quickly.

Abstract

Handheld devices have recently become an indispensable part of our daily lives. These devices always require an end-to-end connection for proper message transmission. Message transmission will be halted if the connection fails. In this case, delay-tolerant networks (DTNs) are preferable. One of the most important applications of DTN is the transmission of emergency messages among rescue personnel in the aftermath of a disaster. Previously, we created a simulation map in the Rajshahi University (RU) campus area of Bangladesh and studied the performance of DTN routing protocols. This paper used our developed simulation map to evaluate the performance of DTN and social-based routing protocols for emergency message circulation in the RU campus area when traditional communication networks are unavailable. We conducted extensive experiments with the opportunistic network environment (ONE) simulator for evaluations. The performance analysis is based on the delivery ratio, average latency, transmission cost, and average hop count of each group when the message size and node density are changed. According to the simulation results, dLife outperforms all other routing protocols in terms of delivery ratio, while the Spray-and-Focus routing protocol outperforms all other performance metrics.

Abstract

By utilizing variational autoencoder (VAE) architectures in musical instrument digital interface (MIDI)-based generative neural networks (GNNs), this study explores the field of creative music composition. The study evaluates the success of VAEs in generating musical compositions that exhibit both structural integrity and a resemblance to authentic music. Despite achieving convergence in the latent space, the degree of convergence falls slightly short of initial expectations. This prompts an exploration of contributing factors, with a particular focus on the influence of training data variation. The study acknowledges the optimal performance of VAEs when exposed to diverse training data, emphasizing the importance of sufficient intermediate data between extreme ends. The intricacies of latent space dimensions also come under scrutiny, with challenges arising in creating a smaller latent space due to the complexities of representing data in N dimensions. The neural network tends to position data further apart, and incorporating additional information necessitates exponentially more data. Despite the suboptimal parameters employed in the creation and training process, the study concludes that they are sufficient to yield commendable results, showcasing the promising potential of MIDI-based GNNs with VAEs in pushing the boundaries of innovative music composition.
