Authors: Balthazaar Diyani
Published: April 2024

In the modern world, Mobile Banking concept is most important and it change people's life style also. But in Sri Lankan context, Mobile Banking usage and its adoption is at lower level than the offline banking usage. In order to improve this situation bank must identify what are the factors that influence customer adoption to mobile banking and bank must address directly those factors. The study was done to find the factors influencing customer adoption of mobile banking in Sri Lanka. This study hopes to identify impact of convenience to mobile banking, impact of reliability to mobile banking, impact of accessibility to mobile banking, impact of security to mobile banking and impact of awareness to mobile banking. Questionnaire was used to collect primary data for the study and the researcher used to 120 respondents as sample through the online survey . Secondary data also used for this research such as published data in bank websites, internet sources and documents. The researcher has used customer adoption on mobile banking as dependent variable and convenience, reliability , accessibility , security and awareness as independent variables. The study is used multiple regression analysis to assess the impact of factors influencing to customer adoption on mobile banking and SPSS is used as analysis tool of this research. According to the regression model, the study reveals that the all selected independent variables positively impact to the customer adoption on mobile banking. The recommendation is that bank must address those positively impact factors through their marketing programs. Then the bank will be increased their mobile Banking market space as well as people will be able to consume Mobile Banking facilities and its benefits.
A Comparative Study on Financial Performance of SBI & HDFC Banks in India
Authors: Karthikeyan K. , Dinesh Kumar M.
Published: April 2024

Financial Performance of banks is a key indicator of an economy . Both public and private sector banks perform widely in India. So this research paper compares the performance of top two important banks in India one being a public sector bank State Bank of India (SBI) and another private sector bank HDFC Bank using secondary data for the previous 5 years from annual report. The objectives are to examine and analyze the SBI & HDFC Bank for No. of Branches, No. of ATMs, Deposit, Advance and Non Performing Assets (NPA) (2017-18 to 2021-22) in India. The effect was concluded by financial performance analysis of the SBI & HDFC Bank under number of Branches, No. of ATMs, Deposit, Advance and NPA in India. In these measures of Trend Line Graphs on Progress of SBI are presented below the No. of branches that is positive trend; R-squared value is very low and No. of ATMs has a positive trend; R-squared value is nearest to well growth and HDFC Bank are presented below the No. of branches and No. of ATMs has a positive trend; R-squared value both are nearest to excellent growth. Hence the number of branches & ATMs is high for HDFC Bank as customer services do it well. The following hypothesis is framed and tested with regression analysis on Financial Performance Analysis for highly significant. The RBI guidelines to SBI and HDFC banking sectors are improving on providing loan & advances and proper collection to NPAs. Those banks have a customer base that is medium reflected for NPA. So, reduce & avoid making steps for NPAs in future.

This research provides a comprehensive examination of the digital marketing strategies employed by novice entrepreneurs. Based on data collected from 136 novice entrepreneurs through a survey, the study covers aspects including their choice of digital marketing channels, key success measures, strategies, challenges, and future goals. The findings reveal that social media is the most favoured digital marketing channel among novice entrepreneurs, followed by email marketing, SEO, PPC advertising, content marketing, and influencer marketing. Success is assessed through metrics like sales conversions, lead generation, social media engagement, website traffic, email open/click rates, and search engine rankings. Novice entrepreneurs commonly employ data-driven approaches, competitor analysis, experimentation, customer insights, and personal experiences in their digital marketing strategies. They face challenges including lead generation, campaign management, content creation, analysis, staying updated with industry trends, and audience targeting. Their future goals include increased lead and sales generation, higher website traffic, improved brand awareness, enhanced customer engagement, and market expansion. The implications of this research enrich the literature on digital marketing for novice entrepreneurs, highlighting the significance of social media, email marketing, and data-driven approaches in their strategies. The identified challenges provide valuable insights into areas needing improvement, and the future goals emphasize growth priorities. Novice entrepreneurs can use these findings to tailor their digital marketing practices for better business outcomes. While the study has limitations, such as reliance on self-reported survey data, it offers guidance to novice entrepreneurs in channel selection, strategy development, and goal setting for effective digital marketing. This, in turn, can contribute to startup success, fostering economic growth, innovation, and job creation. The originality of this research lies in its focus on specific digital marketing strategies used by novice entrepreneurs, providing a comprehensive view of channel selection, success measures, strategies, challenges, and future goals, all backed by insights from surveyed entrepreneurs, adding practical perspectives to the field.

A narrativa cinematográfica de 'Árvores da Paz' (2021) sob a égide do pós-modernismo
Authors: Araujo Placido Carlos Eduardo de
Published: April 2024

A obra cinematográfica Árvores da Paz (2021) de Alana Brown reflete sobre as diferentes facetas do Genocídio de Ruanda através do female gaze, ocorridos em 1994. A narrativa se inicia com quatro personagens femininas em uma sororidade forçada. A perspectiva moderna indica que essas personagens deveriam apresentar uma conexão inata por serem todas mulheres. Não obstante, essa irmandade não ocorre naturalmente. A sororidade é só realmente consubstanciada quando elas rompem com os estereótipos universalizados do feminismo moderno e se apresentam pela ótica do feminismo pós-moderno. Por esses motivos, o objetivo deste artigo foi o de analisar a narrativa cinematográfica do filme Árvores da Paz (2021) sob a égide do pós-modernismo. Como resultado, a análise demonstrou que quando as personagens femininas questionam a realidade imposta, elas conseguem expor problemas invisíveis, romper com estereótipos negativos, sugerir histórias mais inclusivas e, até mesmo, transformar tal realidade.
Is Complexity an Illusion?
Authors: Bennett Michael Timothy
Published: April 2024

Simplicity is held by many to be the key to general intelligence.
Simpler models tend to “generalise”, identifying the cause or
generator of data with greater sample efficiency. The implications of
the correlation between simplicity and generalisation extend far beyond
computer science, addressing questions of physics and even biology. Yet
simplicity is a property of form, while generalisation is of function.
In interactive settings, any correlation between the two depends on
interpretation. In theory there could be no correlation and yet in
practice, there is. Previous theoretical work showed generalisation to
be a consequence of “weak” constraints implied by function, not form.
Experiments demonstrated choosing weak constraints over simple forms
yielded a 110-500% improvement in generalisation rate. Here we measure
the complexity of weak constraints, and show that if one does not
presuppose an abstraction layer, then all have equal complexity.
However, in the context of a spatially and temporally extended
abstraction layer, efficiency demands weak constraints take simple
forms, and simplicity becomes correlated with generalisation. Simplicity
has no causal influence on generalisation, but appears to due to
confounding.
The Optimal Choice of Hypothesis Is the Weakest, Not the Shortest
Authors: Bennett Michael Timothy
Published: April 2024

If A and B are sets such that A is a subset of
B, generalisation may be understood as the inference from
A of a hypothesis sufficient to construct B. One might
infer any number of hypotheses from A, yet only some of those may
generalise to B. How can one know which are likely to generalise?
One strategy is to choose the shortest, equating the ability to compress
information with the ability to generalise (a “proxy for
intelligence”). We examine this in the context of a mathematical
formalism of enactive cognition. We show that compression is neither
necessary nor sufficient to maximise performance (measured in terms of
the probability of a hypothesis generalising). We formulate a proxy
unrelated to length or simplicity, called weakness. We show that if
tasks are uniformly distributed, then there is no choice of proxy that
performs at least as well as weakness maximisation in all tasks while
performing strictly better in at least one. In other words, weakness is
the pareto optimal choice of proxy. In experiments comparing maximum
weakness and minimum description length in the context of binary
arithmetic, the former generalised at between 1.1 and 5
times the rate of the latter. We argue this demonstrates that weakness
is a far better proxy, and explains why Deepmind’s Apperception Engine
is able to generalise effectively.
Emergent Causality and the Foundation of Consciousness
Authors: Bennett Michael Timothy
Published: April 2024

Awarded “Best Student Paper” and published in Proceedings of
The 16th International Conference on Artificial General Intelligence,
Stockholm, 2023.

To make accurate inferences in an interactive setting, an agent must not
confuse passive observation of events with having intervened to cause
them. The do operator formalises interventions so that we may reason
about their effect. Yet there exist pareto optimal mathematical
formalisms of general intelligence in an interactive setting which,
presupposing no explicit representation of intervention, make maximally
accurate inferences. We examine one such formalism. We show that in the
absence of a do operator, an intervention can be represented by a
variable. We then argue that variables are abstractions, and that need
to explicitly represent interventions in advance arises only because we
presuppose these sorts of abstractions. The aforementioned formalism
avoids this and so, initial conditions permitting, representations of
relevant causal interventions will emerge through induction. These
emergent abstractions function as representations of one’s self and of
any other object, inasmuch as the interventions of those objects impact
the satisfaction of goals. We argue that this explains how one might
reason about one’s own identity and intent, those of others, of one’s
own as perceived by others and so on. In a narrow sense this describes
what it is to be aware, and is a mechanistic explanation of aspects of
consciousness.
On the Computation of Meaning, Language Models and Incomprehensible Horrors
Authors: Bennett Michael Timothy
Published: April 2024

Accepted for full oral presentation at the 16th Conference on
Artificial General Intelligence, taking place in Stockholm, 2023.

We integrate foundational theories of meaning with a mathematical
formalism of artificial general intelligence (AGI) to offer a
comprehensive mechanistic explanation of meaning, communication, and
symbol emergence. This synthesis holds significance for both AGI and
broader debates concerning the nature of language, as it unifies
pragmatics, logical truth conditional semantics, Peircean semiotics, and
a computable model of enactive cognition, addressing phenomena that have
traditionally evaded mechanistic explanation. By examining the
conditions under which a machine can generate meaningful utterances or
comprehend human meaning, we establish that the current generation of
language models do not possess the same understanding of meaning as
humans nor intend any meaning that we might attribute to their
responses. To address this, we propose simulating human feelings and
optimising models to construct weak representations. Our findings shed
light on the relationship between meaning and intelligence, and how we
can build machines that comprehend and intend meaning.

Published: April 2024

We report a rare case of vertebral tuberculosis involving the posterior arch of L4 and L5 without disc involvement in a 42-year-old patient, revealed by incomplete cauda equina syndrome (sensitivo-motor disorder, without genito sphincter disorder). The diagnosis was suspected on the basis of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and confirmed on anatomopathological and bacteriological studies. CT provides a good analysis of the bone lesion and its intra-ductal extension. MRI can also be used to analyse the impact on nerve structures.
Clinical Profile of Lichen Scrofulosorum, a Cutaneous Manifestation with Focus on Tubercular Lymphadenitis in a 15-Year-Old Male- A Case Report
Authors: Khayyam Salik Umer , Khayyam Khalid Umer , Muzammil Sazina , Mohan Krishna
Published: April 2024

Lichen scrofulosorum (LS) or tuberculosis cutis lichenoides is a rare form of tuberculid, an immunological reaction to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacilli which may be occult or present with primary focus elsewhere in the body. Other typical recognized forms of tuberculid include erythema induratum and papulonecrotic tuberculid. We report a case of LS with tubercular mediastinal lymphadenopathy in a 15- year-old male who presented with asymptomatic, recurrent, multiple papular rashes on the proximal side of both arms, sides of trunk, chest, stomach area, and back, for the last 5 months. Skin biopsy revealed ill-defined epitheloid cell granulomas with moderate perivascular infiltrates of lymphohistocytes in the upper dermis and features compatible with LS. Chest radiograph showed round radiopacity obscuring right hila pulmonary vasculature and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) of the chest revealed multiple large conglomerated and necrotic homogenously enhancing mediastinal lymph nodes largest (2.6 x 2.3 cm) at the right hilar location. The patient was treated with standard 6 months of anti-tubercular therapy with a treatment extension of another 3 months until complete resolution of the skin lesions and significant reduction in the size of the hilar lymph node on X-ray examination was seen.

Published: April 2024

This clinical case involves a 52-year-old married patient with two children who presented initially with left-sided pelvic pain, leading to the discovery of a tumor on a cryptorchid testicle. Further evaluation revealed a suspicious lesion, indicating degeneration of a testicle in an aberrant position. Surgical intervention via laparoscopic orchidectomy confirmed a seminoma, emphasizing the association between cryptorchidism and testicular germ cell tumors. This case underscores the importance of early diagnosis and management of cryptorchidism to mitigate the risk of testicular malignancies, highlighting the necessity for timely surgical intervention and careful monitoring of patients with undescended testicles.

Synovial sarcoma are extremely rare malignant tumors of soft extra-skeletal tissue accounting for less than 1% of all malignant tumors. Despite their name, they do not arise from synovial tissue, and their pathogenesis remains unknown. The knee and ankle are the most common sites of occurrence. Due to unclear risk factors, no screening recommendations currently exist. They are characterized by an unpredictable course; hence, multidisciplinary management must be initiated at an early stage in order to improve prognosis. The mainstay of treatment is wide surgical excision, which can often be challenging, requiring the sacrifice of noble structures, while reconstructive surgery can be laborious. The presence of pulmonary metastasis is an indication of poor prognosis. Herein, we report a rare case of a localized elbow synovial sarcoma in a 48-year-old woman with no comorbidity. She underwent surgery for complete tumor removal and had an uncomplicated post-operative follow-up.
Mobile-Assisted Language Learning During Short-Term Study Abroad
Authors: Kang Hyun-Sook , Shin Dong-shin
Published: April 2024

This study examined how Korean teacher candidates’ understanding of English and their use of the L2 (second language) and other semiotic resources for meaning making could be mediated through a mobile application, Band during study abroad. Drawing on the sociocultural perspective of L2 learning, the teacher candidates’ weekly reflections, which were composed in L2 English along with other semiotic resources (e.g., emoticons, images, and videos) on curricular activities were analyzed and triangulated with focus group and individual interviews. Content analysis of the reflection posts indicated how the mobility and connectivity of Band mediated sojourners’ understanding of variation in English and the host culture during study abroad. The analysis further suggests that the interactive and multimodal features of the mobile application helped L2 learners engage in enhanced learning opportunities through which they shared and negotiated each other’s ideas, by using the L2 and other semiotic meaning-making resources, such as images and videos.
Abstract in Korean
이 연구는 미국을 방문한 한국 교사 지망생들의 영어에 대한 이해 및 기타 의미 생성을 위한 기호 자원의 사용이 모바일 애플리케이션, Band를 통해 어떻게 매개될 수 있는지를 조사하였다. 제 2언어학습의 사회문화적 관점에 근거하여, 사범대 학생들이 커리큘럼 활동에 대해 영어와 기타 기호자원으로 작성한  주간 반성이 분석되었고, 포커스 그룹 및 개별 인터뷰와 삼각측량으로 검증되었다. 반성 게시물의 내용 분석은 Band의 이동성과 연결성이 학생들의 영어의 변형성과  미국의 문화에 대한 이해를 어떻게 매개했는지를 나타냈다. 더 나아가 이 분석은 모바일 애플리케이션의 상호작용적이며 영어와 기타 이미지, 비디오와 같은 기호 의미 생성 자원을 사용하는 다모드적 특성이 제 2언어 학습자들이 서로의 생각을 공유하고 협상하는데 도움이 되어 향상된 학습 기회에 참여했던 방법을 제시한다.
Is Study Abroad Still a Privilege? Exploring the Inequality Gap between Intentions and Study Abroad at a Public Midwestern University in the U.S.
Authors: Kurthen Hermann , Hammersmith Anna
Published: April 2024

Although more students study abroad today than in decades prior, participation still lags behind national goals put forth by the Lincoln Commission. Many students plan to study abroad, yet this often does not correspond with actual participation. This gap suggests there are barriers that prevent study abroad intentions from evolving into program enrollment. This study analyzes full population data and a NSSE (National Survey of Student Engagement) subset to distinguish study abroad and non-study abroad student intentions and participation between 2007 and 2017 at Grand Valley State University (GVSU), a public liberal arts university in the U.S. Midwest. The role of demographic, academic, and socioeconomic factors are explored using logistic regression. Findings confirm alignment of study abroad patterns with student characteristics, which represent barriers as well as opportunities for study abroad participation. Interventions at institutional and individual levels could be useful for addressing social group disparities and the participation gap.

Published: April 2024

Este trabalho apresenta um estudo de caso do restaurante Cidadão, localizado na Avenida Anhanguera, n. 8.473, Quadra 97, Setor Campinas – Goiânia/GO. Pretende-se analisar, caracterizar e quantificar os resíduos através de dois métodos e, a partir dos resultados de composição obtidos, avaliar se a compostagem é viável ou não. São servidas diariamente cerca de 2.400 refeições, e os locais de geração levantados foram a cozinha e o salão de alimentação. A partir dos resultados e da literatura estudada, entende-se que a compostagem é viável no local, e o melhor método a ser aplicado é o de leiras estáticas com aeração natural. O emprego da compostagem em resíduos sólidos urbanos (RSU) aumenta consideravelmente a vida útil dos aterros sanitários, correspondendo a um acréscimo de aproximadamente 0,342 anos aos locais de disposição final relativos apenas aos grandes geradores.

Published: April 2024

Dentre os temas de biologia, o fluxo da informação gênica é considerado um assunto abstrato por envolver processos bastante complexos. Além disso, há poucas estratégias de ensino destinadas a estudantes com deficiência visual, auditiva e surdos. Assim, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi desenvolver um modelo didático tridimensional sobre o fluxo da informação gênica, bem como promover a inclusão de alunos com deficiência visual, auditiva e surdos. Além disso, foram desenvolvidos vídeos autoexplicativos com legenda em português. Para a confecção e montagem dos recursos didáticos foram utilizados materiais de baixo custo. Com a utilização do material didático o estudante poderá aprender sobre os três processos do fluxo da informação gênica: replicação, transcrição e a tradução. Para os estudantes com deficiência visual, os educadores poderão auxiliá-los a apalpar e manusear o recurso didático, facilitando a compreensão do ensino e aprendizagem da informação gênica de forma inclusiva.

O artigo aborda a importância das relações estabelecidas entre texto e imagem em uma narrativa. Considera a ilustração como recurso que transcende o objetivo estilístico. Realiza análise exploratória, buscando bases teóricas que sustentam a pesquisa. Construído o referencial teórico, procede-se a análise do livro “Meu gato mais tonto do mundo”, para exemplificar a discussão em torno do tema. Os resultados mostraram que as imagens deixaram de ser consideradas meros recursos estilísticos e passaram a compor a história como linguagem visual, carregada de sentido, exercendo funções substanciais na literatura infantil; que a relação texto e imagem deve ser adequadamente compreendida, especialmente, por educadores, para que seja empregada como recurso para contribuir e ampliar a capacidade reflexiva dos alunos e como estratégia no processo de formação leitora das crianças na Educação Infantil. Porém, carece de estudos e pesquisas que aprofundem as discussões sobre as multilinguagens e seu uso nos processos educativos.

Increasing detergent consumption in society has an impact on increasing the volume of waste, which has the potential to pollute water ecosystems. TOP Brand Data Search for 2021 states that people worldwide are more interested in using detergents to combat stubborn stains. Indonesian industrial companies are increasingly producing chemical-based detergents. The research aimed to describe the potential of Moringa oleifera saponin as an effort to prevent water pollution from the Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate (LAS) compound. The research method uses a rotary evaporator with organoleptic tests. The results found in M. oleifera saponin have a distinctive odour from isothiocyanate compounds, yellowish green colour, pH within 25○C (concentrate 6), the active ingredient of saponin (protease enzyme) of M. oleifera leaves was 8.5%, and specific gravity (2.5%) with a concentrate of 1.2. This research shows that the liquid Detergent produced meets Standar Nasional Indonesia (SNI), and the detergent quality was good. The saponin content of M. oleifera was an alternative for industrial companies and a preventive measure for better water ecosystem processing.

High productivity was influenced by optimum production input. Efforts to optimize rice production results include examining the effectiveness of factors that influence rice productivity. This research was useful for providing levels of effective and efficient use of inputs to create efficient use of inputs in rice farming. The research aimed to analyze factors that influence rice productivity, analyze the efficiency of using production inputs in rice farming, and calculate rice farming income. This research was conducted in Ulak Jeremun Village, SP Padang District, Ogan Komering Ilir Regency. The location selection was carried out purposively or deliberately due to the reduction in planting area. Data collection was carried out from August to September 2023. The research method used in this research was the Survey Method. The sampling method used was a simple random sampling method with a total of 60 farmers as respondents. The data used in this research consists of primary data and secondary data. The results of the research show that (1) Factors that have a significant influence on rice productivity in Ulak Jeremun Village are land area, urea fertilizer, and TSP fertilizer. In contrast, those that do not have a significant influence are the dosage of phonska, pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, and the number of workers. (2) The efficiency of production inputs in terms of price for the dose used for seeds and the number of workers was efficient. In contrast, the dose used for fertilizers, insecticides, and pesticides could be more efficient. (3) Rice farming income in Ulak Jeremun Village was IDR 6,940,251 per hectare per year. Income was relatively small because farmers' land was flooded, so many weeds, which cause pests in the fields, were difficult for farmers to control.

Spodoptera frugiperda damage  in South Sumatra reached 100%.  Biological control of S. frugiperda using entomopathogenic fungi has been widely practiced. This study aimed to determine S. frugiperda larval abundance and infestation in maize inoculated with endophytic entomopathogenic fungi. The three  fungal isolates used in the current study consisted of one species of Beauveria bassiana (isolate code: JgSPK), one species of Penicillium citrinum (isolate code: JaTpOi (2)) and one species of Metarhizium anisopliae (isolate code: CaTpPga). Egg and larval, incidence and severity of S. frugiferda infestation were observed. All endophytic entomopathogenic fungal isolates could siginifcantly decrease the incidence and severity caused by S. frugiperda larvae. Corn seeds treated with endophytic entomopathogenic fungi did not affect the population of eggs and larvae.  Fluctuations of the egg and larval population tended to be influenced by corn age.

Kegiatan penambangan baik tambang batubara, bijih maupun batuan akan berakhir dan pada beberapa kasus meninggalkan lubang bekas tambang yang dijadikan sebagai danau pascatambang (pit lake). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memprediksi pembentukan danau pascatambang yang dapat digunakan untuk mengestimasi laju dan durasi/waktu pengisian air danau yang terbentuk. Pit D2 Site Binungan 01 merupakan lokasi penelitian yang terletak di antara dua sungai utama yaitu Sungai Kelay dan Sungai Binungan. Sungai Kelay memiliki panjang ±259 km, lebar 128 meter dengan kedalaman ±25 meter. Debit Sungai Kelay 928,22 m³/s hingga 1539,32 m³/s dengan kecepatan aliran 0,540 m/s. Sungai Binungan memiliki panjang ±35 km, lebar sungai 15,9 meter dengan kedalaman ±2,8 meter. Debit Sungai Binungan 117,39 m³/s hingga 304,30 m³/s dengan kecepatan aliran 0,640 m/s. Pengisian danau pascatambang dengan menggunakan air sungai masih jarang dilakukan, sehingga penelitian ini diharapkan menjadi salah satu acuan atau pedoman untuk reklamasi pascatambang di Indonesia. Simulasi pengisian dengan mengandalkan Sungai Kelay secara terus-menerus akan berlangsung selama 18 bulan sejak pengisian pertama dengan mengalirkan debit sungai sebesar 2 m³/s. Simulasi pengisian dengan mengandalkan Sungai Kelay ketika banjir akan berlangsung selama 16 bulan sejak pengisian pertama dengan mengalirkan debit sungai 2,75 m³/s. Simulasi pengisian dengan mengandalkan Sungai Binungan secara terus-menerus akan berlangsung selama 25 bulan sejak pengisian pertama dengan mengalirkan debit sungai sebesar 1,5 m³/s. Simulasi pengisian dengan mengandalkan Sungai Binungan ketika banjir akan berlangsung selama 18 bulan sejak pengisian pertama dengan mengalirkan debit sungai 1,85 m³/s.
