Abstract

In the digital age, social media has become a powerful platform for public expression and discourse, offering governments a real-time window into citizen sentiment. This research explores the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI), specifically Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques, to analyze public sentiment on social media in response to government policies. Using data primarily sourced from Twitter, the study applies a BERT-based sentiment analysis model to classify public reactions into positive, negative, and neutral categories. The model achieved high performance with an accuracy of 89.2%, precision of 88.6%, and recall of 87.9%, outperforming traditional classifiers. Sentiment was analyzed across three key policy areas: fuel subsidy removal, education curriculum reform, and COVID-19 vaccination programs. Results indicate significant variations in public sentiment based on policy type, timing, and inferred demographic factors. A real-time sentiment analysis dashboard was developed to support policymakers in monitoring public opinion trends and improving communication strategies. This study demonstrates the potential of AI-driven sentiment analysis as a tool for enhancing data-informed governance, public engagement, and policy responsiveness.

Abstract

Ransomware has become one of the most pervasive and damaging forms of cyber threats, targeting individuals, organizations, and critical infrastructures. Traditional digital forensic methods, while effective, are often limited by the speed and scale required to analyze modern ransomware attacks. This research explores the integration of machine learning techniques into digital forensic analysis to enhance the detection, classification, and investigation of ransomware. Using a controlled virtual environment, ransomware samples were executed and monitored to extract forensic artifacts from system logs, memory, and network activity. Features such as file entropy, API call behavior, and command-and-control (C2) communication patterns were analyzed. Machine learning models, particularly Random Forest and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), were trained to identify ransomware behaviors with high accuracy. The Random Forest model achieved a detection accuracy of 96.4%, with strong precision and recall scores. The study also developed an automated forensic framework capable of real-time incident response and evidence extraction. Compared to previous research, this study offers improved generalization to unknown ransomware variants and faster forensic processing. The findings highlight the potential of digital forensic machine analysis as a robust solution for modern ransomware defense and investigation.

Abstract

This research investigates the effect of process parameter variations in Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding on joint strength, focusing on the key parameters that influence weld quality and mechanical properties. The study explores the relationship between welding current, welding speed, arc length, shielding gas flow rate, and electrode type, and their impact on the tensile strength, fatigue resistance, and overall integrity of welded joints. Through a series of controlled experiments, various combinations of these parameters were tested to identify optimal settings for achieving the strongest, most reliable welds. The results indicate that welding current and speed have the most significant influence on joint strength, with proper shielding gas flow and arc length playing critical roles in minimizing defects and ensuring a stable weld pool. The research also highlights the importance of adjusting welding parameters based on material type and application to achieve maximum joint strength while improving efficiency and reducing material waste. The findings provide valuable insights for improving welding practices, optimizing process parameters, and enhancing the quality and durability of welded structures in industrial applications. This study contributes to the development of more effective welding procedures, offering practical solutions for industries relying on high-quality welds for structural integrity and safety.
