Investing in mutual funds has become a popular choice for investor who looking to participate in the capital markets with more diversified risk. However, the success of mutual fund investments depends on investors understanding the potential losses and opportunities that may arise during the investment period. Analyzing the risk of mutual fund investments is fundamental in helping investors comprehend potential losses. Therefore, research is conducted to understand potential losses by estimating asset price volatility and determining the maximum possible losses. The Expected Shortfall (ES) method proves useful in measuring downside risk and extreme loss potential in investments, but it is less effective in addressing nonlinear trends and the complexity of volatility patterns. Hence, a combination of the Expected Shortfall (ES) and Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) methods is employed to measure the risk of mutual fund investments. The research findings indicate that volatility has a positive impact on Value at Risk (VaR), and the potential maximum losses (ES) increase with higher volatility, indicating a greater risk.

Nowadays, the rental homes business in the area around the campus offers significant profits for its owners, this is due to the large number of students who migrate so they choose to live in rental homess, but on the other hand this can also cause various risks, including fluctuations. Maintenance costs and high occupancy rates. This can make rental homes owners' income unpredictable and make it difficult to create long-term financial goals. Using an upfront annuity model, where the owner receives rental payments at the start of the period, is one way to lower this risk. rental homes owners can guarantee more consistent cash flow and make more accurate income predictions by applying this concept. The aim of this research is to examine how the application of the advance annuity model affects the income and risks of rental homes owners. This study will assess how advance annuities contribute to income stability and reduce the uncertainty that often occurs in rental homes operations by using comprehensive financial techniques. Apart from that, this analysis will also consider various external factors that can influence occupancy levels, such as campus policies and economic conditions. It is hoped that the findings from this research will provide useful insights for rental homes owners in maximizing profits while managing risks more effectively, so that they can adapt to ever-changing market dynamics. Therefore, this strategy can be a smart alternative for rental homes owners in optimizing their business performance around campus.

This study applies the Markov Chain method to calculate insurance premiums based on the dynamic health status of policyholders over time. The model considers three health states Healthy, Mild Illness, and Severe Illness each associated with a specific insurance premium. The transition probabilities between these states are represented in a transition matrix, capturing the likelihood of a policyholder remaining in their current health state or transitioning to another state in a given period. Using this approach, the steady-state distribution, which reflects the long-term probabilities of being in each health state, is calculated. This distribution is then used to determine the expected monthly premium by taking a weighted average of the premiums for each state. The methodology incorporates real-world scenarios where a policyholder's health condition may change over time, impacting the premiums they are required to pay. The Markov Chain model provides an effective framework for estimating these premiums by considering the "memoryless" nature of health state transitions, where future states depend only on the current state and not on prior health history. By solving the steady-state equations pi P=pi and ensuring the total probabilities sum to one, the model yields a robust estimation of long-term health state distributions. These distributions, combined with the associated premiums, produce an accurate calculation of expected insurance costs. The results demonstrate the flexibility and accuracy of the Markov Chain method in assessing risks and setting premiums. Insurers benefit from this approach as it enables dynamic pricing strategies tailored to individual risk profiles. For policyholders, the model provides transparency in understanding how health status influences premiums. Overall, this study highlights the practicality of using Markov Chains in health insurance pricing and underscores their importance in creating equitable and sustainable insurance systems.

A paraphrase is a sentence that is re-expressed with a different word arrangement without changing its meaning (semantics). To find out the semantic proximity to the pair of citation sentences in the form of paraphrases, a computational model is needed. In doing classification sometimes appears a problem called Imbalance Class, which is a situation in which the distribution of data of each class is uneven. There are class groups that have less data (minorities) and class groups that have more data (majority). Any unbalanced real data can affect and decrease the performance of classification methods. One way to deal with it is using the SMOTE method, which is an over-sampling method that generates synthesis data derived from data replication in the minority class as much as data in the majority class. The study applied SMOTE in the classification of semantic proximity of citation pairs, used Word2Vec to convert words into vectors, and used the BiLSTM model for the learning process. The research was conducted through 8 different scenarios in terms of the data used, the selection of learning models, and the influence of SMOTE. The results showed that scenarios using previous research data with BiLSTM and SMOTE models provided the best accuracy and performance.

User reviews can vary widely in language and writing style, which can make accurate sentiment modeling difficult. Selecting the right machine learning model and comparing performance between models can be challenging, given that each model has its own strengths and weaknesses. The method used involved data collection by scraping 5000 reviews from the Google Play Store, followed by data pre-processing including data cleaning, tokenization, stemming, and feature engineering using TF-IDF. The data was divided into training (70%) and testing (30%) sets, with the SMOTE oversampling technique applied to address class imbalance. Three machine learning models were used: Random Forest, Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Naive Bayes. The results showed that the majority of reviews were positive, with a high average app rating. Word cloud analysis revealed that “service”, “driver”, “price”, and “time” were the most frequently discussed aspects in the reviews. In terms of model performance, SVM performed the best with an accuracy of 91.3%, followed by Random Forest (89%) and Naive Bayes (78%). Maxim was generally well received by users in Indonesia, with the majority of reviews being positive. The SVM model proved to be the most effective in classifying review sentiment, outperforming other models in accuracy and precision.

The pension fund program is a program held by the government to ensure the welfare of Civil Servants (PNS) in retirement as old-age security. The pension program for civil servants is managed by a pension fund, PT Taspen (Persero). Actuarial calculations of pension funds need to be carried out to determine the amount of normal contributions and actuarial liabilities that must be paid by pension plan participants and companies. The actuarial calculation of pension funds used by PT Taspen in managing civil servant pension funds is the Accrued Benefit Cost which determines in advance the benefits that will be obtained by participants. The Projected Unit Credit (PUC) method is one part of the Accrued Benefit Cost. This study aims to determine normal contributions and actuarial liabilities using the Projected Unit Credit (PUC) method for civil servant pension program participants of PT Taspen (Persero) Cirebon Branch Office. The calculation results show that the PUC method provides a more accurate calculation of the estimated normal contributions and actuarial liabilities of the company. This study is expected to be a reference for other companies in managing employee pension funds using an actuarial approach.

Catastrophic diseases such as heart disease, cancer, stroke, and kidney failure pose significant financial burdens on national health insurance systems due to their high treatment costs and frequency. This study utilizes the Poisson-Pareto model to analyze aggregate claims and determine premium loading for these diseases, ensuring the financial sustainability of the National Health Insurance program. Using secondary data from 2018 to 2023, we estimate the parameters for frequency and severity distributions, calculate the expected aggregate claims, and derive the required premium loading at various confidence levels. The results show that heart disease accounts for the highest reserve fund allocation, while kidney failure requires the lowest. These findings emphasize the importance of preparing sufficient reserve funds to manage financial risks associated with catastrophic diseases. The proposed approach provides a robust framework for national health insurance providers to maintain financial stability and optimize resource allocation for high-cost diseases.

Tug of war is a folk game that uses a mining tool (rope). How to play a team with 2 teams facing each other. Each team consists of 3 or more people, who face each other holding the mine to be pulled. This tug-of-war competition activity is to train body strength, teamwork and cohesiveness. Once the second mark on the rope from the center red mark crosses the center line, the team that pulls the rope to their area wins the game. In this tug of war game there are many styles, including: Frictional Force, Tensile Force, Gravitational Force, and Muscular Force. This paper aims to study the physical forces of tug of war with a mathematical model based on the physical phenomena that exist in the game of tug of war. This model is created by considering tug of war as two objects connected by a rope. The analysis is done by considering the forces acting in the model. The results show that if after being pulled with a force F, the object moves to the right with an acceleration of a, then the acceleration of the object is based on the equation of motion according to Newton's law.
