Mcgurk, The Tudor Monarchies 1485-1603
Authors: McAllister Charles
Published: May 2024

John McGurk takes the monarchy, "the most important institution in political and constitutional change" in western Europe in the 1400s and 1500s, as his starting point for a succinct survey of British history during the Tudor age. Change is the key term here, as McGurk seeks to address the controversy on how much the Tudors transformed English medieval government. His fine book's traditional structure is largely chronological, with two introductory chapters on the monarchy (with a detailed tree for the York, Lancastrian, and Tudor families) and historical background followed by six more devoted to the monarchs.
Booth & Hyland, Eds., The Practice Of University History Teaching
Authors: Berg Timothy
Published: May 2024

Practicing historians and teachers are all too aware of the primacy placed on research over teaching by many in the academy. Research is the "serious" work of historians, teaching something merely to be tolerated. Although that's a pervasive attitude, readers of this journal undoubtedly will scoff at such a distinction, knowing all too well the importance that both activities play in the historical profession. But recognizing the false dichotomy of choosing research or teaching as the more important of our duties doesn't undercut the reality that scholarship on teaching history is not regarded with the same respect as "content" research.

Authors: Wilcoxson Elizabeth
Published: May 2024

The Collapse of the Soviet Union and The Making and Breaking of the Soviet System offer two different approaches to the question of why the Soviet Union came apart. Paul Winters focuses his attention on the Gorbachev period and immediately after. Christopher Read, on the other hand, provides what is, essentially, a history of the entire period of the Soviet Union and its aftermath.
Teaching Modern American History In An Honors Program
Authors: Simons Williams
Published: May 2024

Two years ago the State University of New York at Oneonta re-established an honors program. The purpose of this venture was to attract outstanding students to our college and retain them. To create a strong base before expanding, only two honors sections were offered initially, one in philosophy and the other in history. Admittance to these two courses was by invitation only, with selection, limited to an elite group of incoming freshmen, based on high school grade average and class standing, Scholastic Aptitude Tests, and a writing sample. Asked to teach the history course, I established its primary purpose: to demonstrate the relevance of the past to the present.

Finding good books to use with pre-service teachers in history or social studies is not easy. In a class for future teachers, one of the reviewers was derided for contradicting the textbook one term-a sure sign a new one was needed. It is equally if not more difficult to find books for in-service history or social studies teachers. That is why Cantu and Warren's volume is a welcome addition.
Spongberg, Writing Women's History Since The Renaissance
Authors: Musselwhite Laura
Published: May 2024

Over the past several decades the marked increase in attention given to the field of women's and/or gender studies has opened up many new avenues of study, such as women's narrative and queer theory. Mary Spongberg, Senior Lecturer in Modem History at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia, sets out to complete an ambitious task by chronicling the writing of women's history from "proto-feminism" in the Renaissance to the present. Few studies of this scope have been tackled in the past; Spongberg points to a 1985 American Historical Review piece by Bonnie Smith as one of the few to look specifically at women as historical writers.
Stafford, John Stuart Mill
Authors: Coohill Joseph
Published: May 2024

John Stuart Mill, his philosophy, and his politics have always been of interest to intellectual historians, political historians, and even gender historians. Long-term projects of collecting and publishing his papers have been among the most impressive academic achievements of recent decades. Yet Mill suffers from neglect in many college history courses. While his ideas might appear in lectures, and certainly his early and consistent championing of women's rights ensures that he will be mentioned in modern European and Western Civilization contexts, it is rare to find his thought analyzed deeply except in the most specialized courses.

Published: May 2024

In Indonesia, the government encourages converting conventional regional development banks into sharia regional development banks. Such banks should become the driving force and the stimulator of a sharia ecosystem in the region, especially to support the development of regional economic potentials and to become a prosperous and peaceful country. This study aims to analyze the financial performance of regional development banks that have become sharia regional development banks to identify their ability to continue to provide economic growth in the region. Considering the results of previous studies, the authors conduct a comparative analysis of the financial performance of regional development banks that have converted to sharia banks using the following variables: return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE), loan-to-deposit ratio (LDR) / financing-to-deposit ratio (FDR), net interest margin (NIM) / net operating margin (NOM) and ratio of operating expenses to operating income (BOPO). The analysis aims to determine whether there is a significant difference in the financial performance between conventional and sharia regional development banks. The population in this study is the regional development bank, with a sample of 3 banks that have converted into sharia banks (Bank Aceh Shariah, Bank NTB Shariah, and Bank Riau Kepri Shariah). The study uses secondary bank data from quarterly financial reports on the banks’ websites. The independent sample t-test is used to test the performance of conventional and sharia banks. The study results indicate no significant differences in the financial performance of regional development banks as measured using the financial ratio indicators ROA, ROE, and LDR. However, there are significant differences in measurements using the NIM and BOPO ratio indicators. Although the financial performance of sharia banks is still lower than that of conventional banks, they are showing an upward trend.
The Effect of Leverage, Liquidity and Firm Size on Tax Aggressiveness
Authors:   Universitas Tarumanagara, Jakarta, Indonesia, Stevanie Stevanie , Sudirgo Tony ,   Universitas Tarumanagara, Jakarta, Indonesia
Published: May 2024

Tax aggressiveness occurs when businesses apply various tax techniques to lower the amount of tax payable. This study aims to analyze the influence of such factors as leverage, liquidity, and firm size on the tax aggressiveness of companies in the building and construction industry. The level of tax aggressiveness is measured using the effective tax rate. The leverage indicator is presented by a debt-to-equity ratio, which shows the part of the total amount of funds used to pay the debt. The liquidity indicator is presented by a current ratio, which shows the company's ability to settle short-term obligations or debts that must be paid off when due. The firm size is defined as the natural logarithm of the company's total assets. The data for this study were obtained from the audited financial statements of the companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). The research sample covers 21 construction and building subsector companies. The research period lasted from 2020 to 2022, and 63 observation data were collected. For data analysis, the method used is Partial Least Square (PLS). The findings indicate that leverage and firm size do not significantly impact tax aggressiveness. Conversely, liquidity positively and significantly impacts tax aggressiveness. At the same time, the variables selected for this study explain only 15.5% of the variability of tax aggressiveness. This means that this study does not cover many other factors influencing a company's decision to optimize tax. Companies must conduct tax policy in compliance with legislation, which is one of the elements of the social responsibility of business. Although tax aggressiveness can provide short-term benefits, companies must consider potential reputational risks and long-term impacts. Transparency and compliance with tax regulations can also reduce the risk of conflict with tax authorities.

Professional Legal Consciousness: An Ideal Theoretical Model or Legal Reality?
Authors: Vladimir Valentinovich Kozhevnikov
Published: May 2024

The article analyzes and evaluates the type of legal consciousness, which in the domestic literature has been defined and is still defined as professional legal consciousness, which, according to the author, must meet the following requirements: it is enough to know the current legislation applied in practice, respectful attitude to law and how consequence, the ability to apply the law, making effective and legal decisions. Emphasizing that it would be illogical to reduce into one type of carriers of professional legal consciousness those officials who carry out their professional activities on the basis of the law, respecting the law, and those law enforcers who commit offenses and even crimes, while showing a negative attitude towards the law, the position is substantiated, according to which the analyzed type of legal consciousness is considered as an ideal theoretical model and defined as  practical  legal consciousness.
Three-dimensional density model of the mantle beneath the Ukrainian shield
Authors: Shumlianska L , Pigulevskiy P , Vilarrasa V
Published: May 2024

Purpose. Mantle density models are key tools for understanding the fundamental geological and physical processes occurring within the Earth and are essential to our scientific and applied understanding of the planet. Methodology. The tasks were solved by a complex research method, including analysis and generalization of literary and patent sources, analytical, experimental studies, using computer and mathematical modelling methods. Findings. One-dimensional models simplify the mantle density distribution by assuming that it is uniform only in the vertical direction. This limitation does not allow for horizontal variations in mantle density, which may be important on a regional scale. 3D models are more complex and require more data and computational resources, so their use may be limited. In this study, we present a quasi-three-dimensional model of mantle density beneath the Ukrainian Shield. This 3D model is obtained using a basic set of one-dimensional seismic tomographic velocity models calculated for 21 mantle domains in the depth range from 50 to 2,600 km. The process of converting the P-wave velocity model into a density model includes the following stages: 1) determining seismic boundaries in the mantle based on P-wave velocity curves for each mantle domain; 2) creating a synthetic mantle model beneath the Ukrainian Shield for the P,S-wave velocity curves; 3) solving the Adams-Williamson equation for each domain, considering polynomial corrections to extract heterogeneities during its solution; 4) analysing existing models by comparing the calculated gravitational potential at the central point of the Ukrainian Shield as the standard reference for selecting one of 5 reference models. Here, we focus on the final stages of constructing the mantle density model by: 1) balancing the mass of the upper and lower mantle for each domain when determining density using the Adams-Williamson equation and introducing polynomial corrections; 2) calculating densities for each of the 21 mantle domains and their 3D integration. Originality. The obtained mantle-density model of the Ukrainian Shield aligns well with the division of the mantle into three main layers: lithosphere, upper mantle, and lower mantle. Each of the mantle’s structural layers has its representation pattern in density heterogeneities. Anomalies of decreased density in the lithosphere of the Ukrainian Shield correlate with thermal anomalies, whereas anomalies of increased density correspond to tectonic zones dividing its megablocks. Practical value. Regions of increased density gradient are associated with mantle thrust faults, which in some cases can be boundaries between different petrological formations and serve as channels for magma ascent into the Earth’s crust at certain stages of geological development of the Ukrainian shield and, in turn, be sources of minerals.

Authors: Bolatbekuly S , Umirova G , Zakariya M , Temirkhanova R , Togizov K
Published: May 2024

Purpose. To study the modern methodology for forming a list of mineragenic factors and prospecting signs of ore fields and deposits of copper-porphyry type based on reference objects and model constructions on the example of deposits of Jungar-Balkhash folded region. Methodology. The methodology for identifying the desired factors and criteria is based on the collection and analysis of published and historical data, formation of digital databases using raster and vector geological maps. It also includes the use of modern, advanced specialized technologies and software packages for geophysical surveys and remote sensing data. According to the adopted technology, the results of aerospace methods are used, which include aerial photography, space radar imaging, infrared and spectrozonal surveys and others. The research involves interpretation of WorldView-3 satellite images. Findings. A list of metallogenic characteristics describing potential copper-porphyry mineralization within the study area has been compiled. Using the Spectral Evolution PSM-3500 infrared spectrometer, characteristic areas of secondary changes in copper-porphyry systems have been identified. ASTER spectral satellite radiometer data have identified mineral spectra, iron hydroxides, propylitic associations, areas of quartzite formation and silicification. By interpreting WorldView-3 satellite images, digital files have been obtained identifying iron ore minerals (hematite, goethite), secondary quartzites (advanced argillizites), varieties of sericite and other clay minerals, silicon, carbonates and propylites (chlorite, epidote). Based on interpretation, “parquet” fracturing in granite bodies and in the area of volcanogenic and sedimentary strata development has been identified, as well as structural lines indicating the strike of rock layers. Originality. Using the example of an exploration area based on the analysis of a priori and up-to-date data, the nature of a set of relevant criteria and signs for predicting and prospecting has been determined, aimed at increasing the reliability and accuracy of formation of geological-geophysical models. Practical value. The collected and systematized geophysical data can serve as a basis for developing plans for further geological exploration, identifying promising areas, determining the required volumes and methods of geophysical surveys. They can also contribute to the increase in estimate of reserves and production at mining sites. The prepared models are intended for preliminary assessment of known and newly discovered ore deposits of various types, as well as for determining the directions of geological exploration in the areas of prospecting the Northern Pribalkhash.

Published: May 2024

Purpose. Assessment of the level of disturbance of the stress state of the rock mass around the crosscut of the depth of 545 m when additional deformations occur during the mining of lower-lying coal pillars by southern longwalls of the k5 layer and assessment of this impact on operational production in the mining-geological and mining-technical conditions of Krasnolymanska mine. Methodology. Theoretical studies are based on the use of regulatory documents on the design of mining operations in coal mines and geomechanical models developed in accordance with the basic principles of solid mechanics, implemented in proven software products. Findings. As a result of the research, it has been proven that the mining-geological and mining-technical conditions of the stressed-strained state of the rock mass around capital workings at a depth of 545 are not critical for their stability. The ability to mine coal pillars at lower depths has been substantiated, and a minimum distance limit between research objects has been established, below which the fastening must be strengthened to ensure the stability of the crosscuts. Originality. For the first time, the stress-strain field in the rock mass around the basis workings has been studied as a result of the imbalance caused by previous mining during the excavation of underlying coal pillars under geological and technical conditions of Krasnolymanska mine based on geomechanical models. The regularity of the equivalent stress growth according to the Mohr-Coulomb criterion with a decrease in the distance between the research objects has been developed. Rational parameters of the technology for working out pillars are substantiated, under which the stress-strain state of the geomechanical system can be safely controlled. Practical value. The possibility of increasing the productive coal reserves within the field of the mine Krasnolymanska due to the safe mining of pillars around the basis inclines on the underlying levels is justified.

Published: May 2024

Purpose. Development of a two-dimensional field mathematical model of a magnetic gearbox operating as part of a low-power wind turbine for the purpose of evaluating its parameters and characteristics and optimizing geometric parameters from the point of view of electromagnetic torque pulsations. Methodology. To carry out the research, the methods of the general theory of electromechanical energy converters, numerical methods of mathematical modeling based on the finite element method, numerical solution of nonlinear differential equations, and methods of spectral analysis to estimate pulsations of the electromagnetic torque were used in the work. Findings. The paper developed a two-dimensional numerical field mathematical model of a magnetic gearbox for an autonomous wind turbine. The model was developed to evaluate the parameters and characteristics of the magnetic gear, as well as to evaluate the influence of the design parameters on the magnitude of the electromagnetic torque and the magnitude of the pulsations of the electromagnetic torque. The effect of the configuration of permanent magnets, the parameters of the ferromagnetic inserts of the magnetic flux modulator and the size of the air gap was investigated in the paper. The obtained results show that there is an optimal configuration of permanent magnets and ferromagnetic elements of the magnetic flux modulator in which the maximum electromagnetic torque and minimum pulsations are achieved. Changing the parameters of the magnetic system affects the dynamics of the magnetic gear, its reliability and efficiency, therefore configuration optimization is an important task in the design, development and implementation of such systems. Originality. A two-dimensional field mathematical model of the magnetic gear has been developed, which makes it possible to estimate the change in its parameters and characteristics when the geometric dimensions change. This allows investigating the influence of various parameters of the magnetic system, such as the height of the permanent magnets and the width of the ferromagnetic inserts, on the electromagnetic torque. This makes it possible to obtain the optimal configuration of the system to achieve the optimal value of the torque and minimal pulsations and to determine the regularity of the change of the electromagnetic torque and other parameters of the gearbox under different operating modes in the future. Practical value. The simulation results indicate the prospects of industrial implementation of magnetic gaers as part of a wind power plant, and the obtained research results indicate the possibility of optimizing the design of magnetic gears in order to increase their reliability and efficiency.

Published: May 2024

Purpose. Development of a method for determining the cable line substitution scheme parameters based on the components of its instantaneous power. Methodology. Determination of unknown parameters of the cable line mode using the harmonic balance method. Determination of the U-shaped substitution scheme elements parameters is performed using power harmonics and their balance at the corresponding frequencies. For frequency-dependent elements, it is taken into account that the same power harmonic can be formed by different current and voltage harmonics. Findings. A method for determining the parameters of the cable line substitution scheme using the power components of its elements is proposed, which is distinguished by the fact that the total number of system equations for determining the parameters can be increased due to the use of power. The study of the proposed method for determining the cable line substitution scheme parameters based on the power components, based on the model compiled in the visual programming package, allowed us to establish that the largest parameter determination error is characteristic of active conduction. Originality. With the instantaneous power determination of the cable line substitution scheme reactive elements, it was found that during the calculation of the instantaneous power there is a peculiarity of taking into account the voltage harmonic number depending on the combination of harmonic numbers. Practical value. The proposed method can be developed on the sectioning of the U-shaped line substitution scheme to determine the change in the cable line substitution scheme parameters during its operation without disconnecting the line, unlike existing methods.

Published: May 2024

Purpose. A leading cause of water contamination is the widespread use of dyes, which are consumed in large amounts. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the potential of the Cactus paddle (CP) as an environmentally safe biosorbent for removing Basic Red 46 dye from aqueous media. Methodology. Various analytical tools, comprising XRF, XRD, BET/BJH, FTIR, and pHPZC methods, were used to examine the surface characteristics of the biosorbent. For assessing the ability of CP for BR46 adsorption, batch adsorption assays were performed. Findings. An amount of 3.45 mg · g-1 of BR46 was adsorbed at pH 7, 500 rpm and 293 K within 180 minutes. The isothermal data was described by both the Freundlich and the Langmuir equations with R2  0.984 and 2  0.01. The kinetics was well described by a PSO model, suggesting that physico-chemical interactions govern the adsorption process. Originality. For the first time, the effective use of a local raw material resource CP as a biosorbent for the removal of BR46 dye has been substantiated. Practical value. As a result of the findings of this study, it seems possible that CP can be regarded as a sustainable resource, which would create a possibility for addressing environmental concerns in the future.

To identify the impact of changes in legislative norms regarding this issue on the effectiveness of legal regulation of IDP labor. To develop recommendations for clarification of legal provisions and propose directions for reducing potential conflict. Methodology. The following methods are used: analysis and synthesis made it possible to substantiate the importance of regulating labor of IDPs; logical generalization – to indicate that legal regulation in judicial practice should be based on the essential content of the basic citizen rights; comparative analysis – to point out the inappropriate level of imperativeness in the legislation regarding legal protection of IDPs; logical generalization – to propose a tool for pre-trial dispute resolution; formal-legal and special-legal methods – to develop changes to legislative provisions. Findings. Problematic issues of regulating the right of IDPs to work are indicated. It is noted that the regulation of the right to work is much broader than the problems of employment of IDPs. The inappropriateness of the level of imperativeness of legislative norms regulating the right of IDPs to work is indicated. A need is justified for pre-trial consideration of disputes regarding protection of the right to work. It is proposed to introduce an institute of mediator lawyers for this purpose. In order to avoid discrimination of IDPs in employment and defamation in the performance of duties under an employment contract, amendments to the Code of Labor Laws are proposed. Originality. Measures to strengthen the imperative of the norms of the current legislation aimed at regulating the labor of IDPs are proposed. Changes to the provisions of the current Laws of Ukraine and directions for reducing the potential for conflict in this area are proposed. Practical value. The implementation of the proposed recommendations on changes to the provisions of the current legislation will contribute to the legal regulation of the labor of IDPs.

Purpose. To conduct a comprehensive analysis of investment relations, particularly in the context of investing in civil construction in Ukraine under martial law. It involves comparing financial models and restoration strategies successfully applied in other countries and determining their applicability in the Ukrainian context. Methodology. The study employed statistical analysis and the “case-study” method, which involves planning the future based on past cases. This approach helped identify common challenges faced by all investors and explore possible solutions. The use of these methods yielded well-founded results and practical recommendations for improving investment relations in civil construction in Ukraine during wartime between different investment classes. Findings. The study explored opportunities to attract international investments in civil construction amid the largest military conflict since World War II, which is a key element of effective housing recovery. Initiatives facilitating the adoption of eco-friendly technologies were examined, with financial support from the World Bank and IMF serving as essential resources. In the near future, the application of the “case-study” method, utilizing Ukraine’s experience and analyzing intellectual assets and developments, is proposed. Sources of funding that can contribute to civil construction development were also investigated and analyzed. The direct impact of military actions on the financial flows of each region was identified, indicating a significant outflow of funds from the country. Originality. It is recommended to implement EU initiatives at the state level, providing opportunities for the application of eco-friendly technologies. New strategies for effective financial management during wartime are proposed for consideration by government agencies. This approach expands scientific knowledge in the fields of finance and construction management and enhances civil construction management overall. Practical value. The research results can be utilized by private and public institutions, including the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in Ukraine, for the development of further emergency housing recovery projects for population use.
SUBSTANTIVE CRIMINAL PROTECTION FOR THE RIGHT TO IMAGE IN THE DIGITAL ERA UNDER UAE AND FRENCH LEGISLATION
Authors: Alhassan Abdulaziz , Tannar Hamoud
Published: May 2024

Background:
The right to image is considered one of the most important personal rights related to the person, simply because the image does recognise its owner from his or her peers, thus constituting a vital element of one's private life. Accordingly, legal protection of the right to image is highly required on both civil and criminal levels. There is no doubt that such a requirement can be attributed to the notable developments in the field of information technology, and what has been produced by digital devices and misused by people has led to the rapid spread of images in the virtual space, where any individuals have become subject to the violation of their private life. Based on this, the legal provisions of both Emirati and French legislators have adopted legal provisions that would ensure full and substantive criminal protection of the right to image, confirming the criminalisation of all forms of assault on this right, in addition to defining the controls and penalties that shall be applied against these attacks.
Methods:
To thoroughly tackle our research issue and its consequences, we will employ a descriptive, analytical, and comparative method. This approach is structured to meticulously explore every aspect of the research subject, albeit succinctly, and integrate jurisprudential principles with current judicial precedents.
Results and Conclusions:
The current research results show that comparative legislation lacks a precise definition concerning the violation of the right to image, thus leaving its interpretation to be determined by jurisprudence and the judiciary. In Emirati and French legal frameworks, this offence is not explicitly delineated but is rather encompassed within regulations safeguarding private life. The right to image is not absolute, with exceptions permitting capturing photographs for public interest. Protection of images is deemed essential within the context of private life rights. While UAE legislation mandates the use of devices for such violations, French law offers flexibility, allowing for various means of perpetration. Both legal systems stipulate that the act must occur in a private, unauthorised context and prohibit alterations to photographs without consent. Unlike UAE law, French legislation imposes penalties for the dissemination of sexually explicit images. Finally, the infringement upon the right to image is categorised as an intentional offence in both legal systems
THE PUNITIVE POWER OF INDEPENDENT ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORITIES: FOCUS ON FINANCIAL AND TAX VIOLATIONS (A COMPARATIVE STUDY)
Authors: AbdelAziz Gehad Mohamed , Abouahmed Alaa
Published: May 2024

Background:
In France, some independent administrative authorities have been granted punitive powers concerning violations committed against stated regulatory rules. In this regard, the issue of the accumulation of penalties has been repeatedly raised concerning sanctions imposed by independent administrative authorities and criminal justice penalties. For example, a certain action could be criminalised by virtue of the Penal Law, necessitating a custodial sanction or a fine, while also considered a mere breach under financial and monetary laws, leading to the imposition of a certain financial penalty. This raises the question of whether the infliction of both criminal and administrative sanctions on financial and tax crimes violates the 'ne bis in idem' principle. The French Constitutional Council has addressed this issue extensively; it has banned the accumulation of criminal penalties and administrative sanctions of a punitive nature upon the fulfilment of certain conditions. Interestingly, these conditions did not apply to tax disputes, permitting the accumulation of penalties in this specific field. However, the accumulation of penalties was banned and deemed impermissible in financial markets. Therefore, a major question can be raised: Why has the Constitutional Council adopted two different approaches in those two similar fields?
Methods:
In pursuit of the research goals, this study employed a combination of comparative, historical, and analytical methodologies. By examining the legal nature of independent administrative authorities, this study conducts a comprehensive examination of relevant legal texts, encompassing constitutional provisions, legislation, and judicial decisions, to analyse the ne bis in idem principle in France. A comparative analysis approach was utilised to compare the rulings of the French Constitutional Council, the French Court of Cassation, and European judicial bodies.
Results and conclusions:
In various jurisdictions, including France and the EU, the principle of non-accumulation of criminal penalties and administrative sanctions is recognised, yet differences arise in its application. Jurisdictions vary in approach, with some strictly prohibiting accumulation while others allow flexibility based on factors like offence nature and societal interests. The French Constitutional Council sets standards, allowing dual penalties in tax matters but not in finance. Rulings by the French Constitutional Council and Court of Cassation offer insights into applying the principle, revealing complexities in balancing regulatory enforcement and individual rights.

EVALUATING MACHINE LEARNING MODELS FOR PREDICTING SLEEP DISORDERS IN A LIFESTYLE AND HEALTH DATA CONTEXT
Authors: Airlangga Gregorius
Published: May 2024

Sleep disorders significantly impact public health, but their detection is often complicated by the multifaceted nature of causative factors. This study investigates the efficacy of various machine learning (ML) models in identifying sleep disorders based on comprehensive lifestyle and health data. We employed a dataset comprising 400 individual records with features including demographic information, sleep metrics, lifestyle factors, and health parameters. The dataset distinguished between individuals with no sleep disorder, insomnia, and sleep apnea. We evaluated a broad spectrum of ML models including logistic regression, decision trees, ensemble methods like RandomForest and GradientBoosting, support vector machines, and neural networks. The models' performances were assessed using accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score metrics. Results indicated that ensemble methods, particularly RandomForest and XGBClassifier, outperformed other models in terms of accuracy, precision, and F1 scores, achieving values as high as 0.93. These methods proved effective in managing the complexity and variability of the dataset, thereby suggesting their robustness in clinical predictive analytics. The study's findings advocate for the use of advanced ensemble techniques in developing diagnostic tools for sleep disorders, highlighting their potential to enhance predictive accuracy and reliability in real-world healthcare settings. Further research is recommended to optimize these models and explore their integration into clinical practice.
