Abstract

This research aims to develop innovative information services to strengthen decision-making in climate change mitigation through a scoping review and bibliometric analysis (ScoRBA). A systematic search of the Scopus database identified 1,214 publications from 2009 to 2023, with 383 meeting inclusion criteria. Using the patterns, advances, gaps, evidence, and recommendations (PAGER) framework, this research provides a transparent synthesis of evidence on climate information services (CIS). The analysis reveals four major thematic clusters: i) emerging technologies and innovations, ii) climate and environmental studies, iii) information systems and decision making, and iv) context awareness and applications. Technologies such as service-oriented architecture (SOA), internet of things (IoT), and cloud computing are key enablers for improving CIS accuracy and efficiency. Evidence shows that these technologies have been successfully applied in agriculture and aquaculture across Vietnam, Bangladesh, and Australia. North African countries have adopted IoT-based water management systems to address water scarcity, while India employs similar technologies to optimize agricultural resources. Integrating local knowledge with scientific data—particularly in Africa, Southeast Asia, and South America—has proven essential for effective adaptation strategies. This research advances theoretical and practical understanding of CIS, offering evidence-based insights to guide the development of adaptive and equitable climate information frameworks.

Abstract

Conventional educational systems primarily use rigid assessment models that narrowly define student achievement through examination scores, categorizing outcomes into success or failure. Fuzzy logic, a mathematical approach derived from set theory, provides a more flexible framework capable of capturing uncertainty and gradations in performance. Initially applied in engineering and artificial intelligence, fuzzy logic has shown significant promise in educational contexts where nuanced evaluation is essential. This study applies a fuzzy logic-based methodology to the evaluation of biomedical course performance at the Sports University of Tirana, Faculty of Rehabilitation Sciences. Data were collected from fifty students enrolled in biomedical subjects and analyzed through both classical examination grading and fuzzy logic evaluation. Comparative analysis revealed that while classical assessment remains constrained by static calculations, fuzzy logic introduces dynamic adaptability. The findings highlight the superiority of fuzzy logic over traditional methods in providing a multidimensional picture of academic achievement. This approach not only refines evaluation accuracy but also supports fairer and more individualized assessment practices. Consequently, fuzzy logic emerges as a powerful tool for modernizing educational evaluation systems, particularly in biomedical disciplines where learning outcomes often extend beyond conventional metrics.

Abstract

Reducing breakdown lead time is a critical factor in ensuring customer productivity and sustaining competitiveness in the heavy-duty commercial vehicle (HDCV) industry. This was tackled by applying a methodology called define, measure, analyze, improve, and control (DMAIC), which stands for DMAIC. By deploying it, the breakdown lead time of an Indonesian HDCV company can be minimized. Before the initiative, the lead time was 4 days with 81.54% or 815,400 defects per million opportunities (DPMO) or less than 1 sigma with only 303 parts within target. The reduction target was 2 days as required by its customers, with 40% or 400,000 DPMO or less than 2 sigmas, with 658 parts within target. After following the methodology, the lead time was less than 2 days, meeting customer requirements with 31.2% or 312,000 DPMO, or about 2 sigmas. It shows an improved lead time, which is less than 2 days from 4 days, and a sigma level which is less than 2 sigmas from less than 1 sigma, with 908 parts within target. The study demonstrates how integrating digital applications, remanufactured spare parts, and a centralized command center significantly shortens breakdown handling.

Abstract

One of the biggest obstacles that any finance provider has when evaluating a borrower's creditworthiness is the prediction of financial trouble. The credit decision-making process is made more difficult for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) due to their inherent ambiguity, which raises financing costs and lowers the chance of approval. In order to estimate a binomial classifier for predicting financial hardship using logistic regression (LR), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), and artificial neural network (ANN) techniques, this study examines data from batik SMEs in Pekalongan city. Financial ratios predict the first period and grow in a multi-period model based on temporal factors, credit history, and age. Financial distress is defined as a substantial obstacle to a business's capacity to pay its debts as opposed to the potential for bankruptcy. The long short-term memory (LSTM) algorithm with more variables yields the best prediction accuracy. The study's conclusion indicates that in order to guarantee the accuracy of financial distress prediction, the time at risk must be adjusted.

Abstract

This study provides insights into the patterns and dynamics of railway accidents in Nigeria over the past decade. Findings indicate that Nigeria's rail network experiences fewer but more severe accidents than the United States of America (USA) and United Kingdom (UK), with significantly higher fatalities and injuries per million train kilometers 92% and up to 95% more, respectively, in 2023. A top-down approach was employed to establish a risk tree, revealing six railway accident categories recorded over the last decade. The established risk tree could provide a framework for conducting the rail network's comprehensive safety risk assessment. Finally, a root cause analysis of railway intrusion accidents, the most occurring railway accident category in the Nigerian rail network, was conducted. Six immediate and eleven underlying causes (UC) of railway intrusion accidents were identified. About 62% of all intrusion accidents were caused by negligence of road users. Several actionable preventive measures (PM) have been proposed for each identified UC based on best practices in developed rail networks. Infrastructure upgrades and safety awareness campaigns have been identified as the potentially most effective PM for railway intrusion accidents in Nigeria.

Abstract

Bioethanol is a clean alternative energy source, with wild cassava (Manihot glaziovii Muell. Arg) as a potential feedstock. Fermentation converts glucose from hydrolysis into ethanol. This study examines the effects of pH and fermentation temperature on bioethanol characteristics using a simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation (SSCF) technique. A factorial randomized block design (RBD) was used with two factors: pH (4.5, 5.0, and 5.5) and fermentation temperature (30, 32.5, and 35 °C). Data were analyzed using variance and Duncan’s test. Results showed that pH and temperature significantly affected pH value, total soluble solids, reducing sugar, and ethanol content. The optimal conditions for bioethanol production were pH 4.5 and temperature 32.5 °C, yielding a pH of 3.55±0.07, total soluble solids of 9.3±0.57 °Brix, reducing sugar of 3.038±0.10 mg/mL, and ethanol content of 3.48±0.37 (%w/v). Based on the results of this study, wild cassava can be utilized as bioethanol by considering the effect of fermentation conditions.

Abstract

A bone fracture is a serious medical problem, and accurate and prompt diagnosis is crucial for optimal treatment. This study highlights the progress of automatic bone fracture detection using deep learning (DL) models. A dataset containing 17 different fracture classes was used to train and evaluate the models. The dataset had class imbalance and minor fracture detection challenges. Extensive preprocessing, including data augmentation and resizing, has been applied to solve these problems, which has helped to increase the robustness of the model. Seven state-of-the-art models—you only look once (YOLO)v8, YOLOv9, YOLOv10, YOLOv11, EfficientNetB0, DenseNet169 and ResNet50—are trained and evaluated. Precision, recall, F1-score, and mean average precision (mAP) were used to evaluate the performance of the models. Among all models, YOLOv11 leads the others by achieving the highest precision, mAP, and precision-recall balance. YOLOv11 adds architectural improvements such as a deep backbone network and hybrid feature fusion, which make the model more reliable in different types of fracture detection. It is capable of reducing false detections and maintaining stable memory usage consistency even under different imaging conditions. Overall, YOLOv11 showed promising results and highlighted the potential of AI-powered diagnostic tools to improve clinical processes and patient care. As future work, the application field of the model can be extended to larger medical imaging tasks, and it can be further refined for effective use in resource-limited environments.

Abstract

Monitoring and classifying volcanic activity are a critical task for disaster risk reduction and hazard management. Recent discoveries in machine learning and deep learning have proved excellent satellite image classification and volcanic anomaly identification capabilities, yet the majority of existing methods suffer from small datasets, particularly on solitary data modalities or particular cases, merely as examples. In this research work, we put forward develop deep convolutional neural network for volcanic activity (DCNNVA) classification specifically designed for satellite imagery on volcanic activity. We rigorously benchmarked DCNNVA model's strength against a total of eight state-of-the-art transfer learning models: ResNet50, NASNetLarge, DenseNet121, MobileNet, InceptionV3, Xception, VGG19, and VGG16. Comparative experimental results show that proposed DCNNVA framework's overall performance significantly surpasses its competitors with an accuracy of 99.33%, precision of 100%, recall of 98.67%, and F1-score of 99.33%, significantly beating existing state-of-the-art methods. Also, we create a deployable graphical user interface (GUI) system that is capable of real-time monitoring on volcanic activity and generates multi-modal alert processing that can make this research directly applicable for practical use on disaster management as well as in early warning systems. This research contributes a scalable, strong, as well as practical solution towards volcanic hazard identification as well as a baseline system toward developing future multi-modal as well as real-time geohazard tracking system frameworks.

Abstract

Microstrip patch antennas are easily fabricated and have a low profile, making them widely used in radar, satellite, and defence applications. Achieving high selectivity and miniaturization in X-band dual-band operation remains a challenge. Conventional designs using simple patch geometries and defected ground structures (DGS) often exhibit limited bandwidth, poor impedance matching, and reduced gain. To address these limitations, this work presents a miniaturized circular fractal patch antenna with an optimized DGS to enhance frequency selectivity, improve impedance matching, and maintain compact size. Circular fractal slots are introduced in the radiating patch to extend the effective current path while preserving the footprint. A centrally placed diamond-shaped slot provides capacitive loading that aids impedance tuning. Electromagnetic simulations were conducted in Ansys HFSS 2023 R2, and a prototype was fabricated on an FR-4 substrate with εr = 4.4, loss tangent = 0.02, and thickness 1.6mm. Measurements verify two passbands: 8.637–9.173GHz (center 8.8025GHz, return loss −22.0267dB, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) 1.1720, gain 4.82dB, efficiency 63.51%) and 10.121–10.956GHz (center 10.3700GHz, return loss −25.2864dB, VSWR 1.1199, gain 3.42dB, efficiency 72.58%). The antenna shows steady radiation and improved matching across both bands, supporting use in compact X-band front ends.
