Credit Card Fraud Detection using KNN, Random Forest and Logistic Regression Algorithms : A Comparative Analysis
Authors: Ashqi Saeed Vaman , Abdulazeez Adnan Mohsin
Published: February 2024

Because credit cards are utilized so frequently, fraud appears to be a significant concern in the credit card industry. It is challenging to quantify the effects of misrepresentation. Globally, credit card fraud has cost institutions and consumers billions of dollars. Despite the existence of numerous anti-fraud mechanisms, fraudsters continue to seek out novel methods and strategies to commit fraud. An additional challenge in the estimation of credit card fraud loss is that the magnitude of unreported or undetected forgeries cannot be determined, only losses associated with those frauds that have been detected can be measured. Implementing effective fraud detection algorithms through the utilization of machine-learning techniques is crucial in order to mitigate these losses and provide support to fraud investigators. This paper presents a machine learning-based method for the detection of credit card fraud. Three methodologies are implemented on the raw and pre-processed data. Python is used to implement the work. By comparing the accuracy-based performance evaluations of k-nearest neighbor and logistic regression with Random Forest, it is determined that the former exhibits superior performance.

Hybrid Bird Mating Optimizer for Welded Beam Design Optimization Problem
Authors: Ibrahem Ali Hikmat , Abdulazeez Adnan Mohsin
Published: February 2024

This study introduces a hybridization of the Bird Mating Optimizer (BMO) with Differential Evolution (DE). The Bird Mating Optimizer exhibits certain limitations, such as a slow convergence rate and a tendency to become trapped in local optima. To address these issues, a new method, BMO-DE, is proposed to enhance the performance of the BMO swarm intelligence algorithm. BMO-DE is a versatile swarm intelligence algorithm applicable to various engineering problems. In this research, it is specifically employed in the optimization of welded beam design, a type of problem characterized by numerous constraints. The penalty function approach is used to handle the constraints associated with welded beam design. Comparative analysis indicates that the proposed BMO-DE method outperforms other swarm intelligence algorithms in tackling this category of problems. Notably, the method demonstrates efficacy in finding optimal solutions with a low number of objective function evaluations, making it a potent and promising approach for addressing such problems.
Predictions of Early Hospitalization of Diabetes Patients Based on Deep Learning: A Review
Authors: Al-Atroshi Chiai , Adnan Mohsin Abdulazeez
Published: February 2024

Unmanaged diabetes can result in a number of complications that need to be hospitalised. Diabetes is a chronic disorder. With preventive treatment, outcomes may be improved through early prediction of diabetes-related hospitalisation using data-driven algorithms. Here, we examine recent advances in deep learning methods for anticipating readmissions and unexpected hospital stays in adult patients with diabetes. Firstly, we present an overview of the main factors that indicate the need for hospitalisation due to diabetic complications. The research on hospitalisation risk prediction using structured health data, such as demographics, prescriptions, test results, etc., using conventional machine learning techniques is then summarised. Using data from insurance claims and electronic health records, we then examine current research that has used deep learning models. It is emphasised that longitudinal data can be included using recurrent neural networks. Model architectures, training methods, and important data modalities are covered. The assessment also addresses deployment difficulty and the model's performance assessment on real-world datasets. Ultimately, potential paths forward include hybrid models that integrate data diversity, explainable predictions, and clinical knowledge. In order to provide evidence-based predictions of the risk of hospitalisation and readmission for diabetes patients, we examine the potential and constraints of recently developed deep learning algorithms in this review.

This study aims to examine the background of the emergence of the sabil war saga and examine the influence of the sabil war saga on the spirit of the Acehnese people's struggle in the Aceh war against the Dutch (1873-1903). The method used is the historical method, so the steps used in this study include heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. Based on the results of the study, it was concluded that in Aceh's war against the Dutch, it gave birth to its own mentality for the people of Aceh, there was resistance to maintain the dignity of the state while at the same time upholding the religion of Islam. The background of the emergence of the sabil war saga was during the Aceh war against the Netherlands. In the face of a prolonged war the sabil war saga became a kind of belief that became a source of strength, enthusiasm, and courage against the presence of the Dutch. Sabil war is jihad fisabilillah against all forms of colonialism that interfere with the religion of Islam and its homeland. The great influence of the sabil war saga has succeeded in igniting the spirit of jihad fisabilillah and is considered a very dangerous subversive work. The law of stable war is fardhu ain, which is obligatory on all believers, men and women, young and old, including children.

JAULUNG WISMAR SARAGIH DAN IDENTITAS GEREJA ETNIK KOMUNITAS KRISTEN SIMALUNGUN SUMATRA TIMUR DALAM ERA POSKOLONIAL
Authors: Hartutik
Published: February 2024

Permasalahan dalam penelitian kepustakaan ini ialah munculnya sosok Jaulung Wismar Saragih (JWS) sebagai pioner dari berdirinya gereja etnik Simalungun Sumatra Timur. Tujuan dari penelitian kepustakaan ini untuk mengetahui biografi JWS, datangnya kristen di Simalungun pada masa Kolonial, dan usaha-usaha JWS dalam mendirikan gereja etnik komunitas kristen Simalungun. Penelitian ini merupakan library research dengan metode penelitian historis melalui tahapan heuristik, kritik, intepretasi, dan historiografi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan JWS merupakan salah satu tokoh penggerak dalam melakukan perubahan-perubahan terhadap tatanan kehidupan umat kristen di Simalungun. Pada masa kolonial, kiprah JWS sebagai penentang kebijakan-kebijakan para zendeling RMG yang terjadi pada beberapa lini kehidupan. Permasalahan muncul ketika orang-orang Simalungun merasa terdiskriminasikan oleh pemerintah kolonial yang mana para pendatang lebih diutamakan dalam keterlibatan administrasi pemerintahan. Permasalahan berlanjut dalam ranah kekristenan antara pendatang dengan penduduk setempat sehingga muncul hegemoni perlawanan kemudian berangsur-angsur dalam era poskolonial berdirilah gereja etnik setempat sebagai simbol penguatan jati diri lokalitas. Sehingga secara nyata dapat kita lihat bahwa JWS dalam hidupnya menerima unsur baru kekristenan melalui zending dan juga gagasan Sosial Progress, serta emansipasi melalui zending beserta kultur Barat-Kolonial yang singgah di daerah Simalungun. Dalam hal itu terdapat proses-proses konfliktual, resistensi dan juga adaptasi terhadap unsur asing yang muncul. Implikasi dari penelitian ini ialah pentingnya sebuah identitas keagamaan suatu etnisitas sehingga dapat menjadi semangat pemersatu secara simbolis. Keterbatasan dalam penelitian ini hanya membahas seputar Simalungun dan gereja etnis dalam era poskolonial dan tinak berlanjut kepada pembahasan terhadap perkembangan kondisi masa kini.

The Influence of English as Medium of Instruction (EMI) on the First and Second Language Acquisition of Bilingual School Students: A Case Study
Authors: Pujiani Tri , Sukmawati Ida Dian , Adzkiyah Maulina
Published: February 2024

English as a Medium of Instruction (EMI) is a term used for learning activities where English is used as the main language. This approach is widely adopted by bilingual schools as it allows learners to learn both their first and second language at the same time. While EMI has many advantages, the impact of this method on children's first and second language acquisition remains largely unknown. Therefore, through a case study, this research aims to examine the effect of EMI on children's first and second language acquisition in bilingual schools. This research will be conducted in a school that applies EMI in the Purwokerto area, namely Tiga Bahasa Putera Harapan School, with a sample of grade 3 students and teachers as respondents. This sample is randomly selected using a convenience sampling technique. Data for this study will be obtained through observations, speaking tests in Indonesian and English, and interviews. The results of this study show that there is no significant difference between the average English score (85.47) and Indonesian score (84.76) of students taught using EMI. Despite its status as an international standard school, national values and love for the country are still instilled through various curricular and co-curricular activities. This shows that with proper management, EMI does not affect the first and second language acquisition of children attending bilingual schools. To improve children's English proficiency, English needs to be introduced early through environmental conditioning that supports the use of English in daily life.

The duration of therapy for 4 days was associated with nausea, vomiting and duration of therapy for 5 days was associated with constipation and dyspepsia.
Conclusion: The use of drugs (type of drug, accuracy of dose and duration of therapy) of NSAIDs in post-appendectomy patients is associated with drug side effects.
Relationship between Islam and the West: From Historical Review to Clash or Cooperation?
Authors: Kurniawan Edi
Published: February 2024

Scholars are divided into two groups in assessing the relationship between Islam and the West. Some see it as a clash, while others propose a tolerance thesis. As a result, there is an ongoing debate. However, this paper will negate both. Therefore, this paperwill contextualize this relationship from a historical standpoint and assess its trajectory. This paper is a literature study that takes the sources from library data. By taking scientific cooperation and conflict, crusades and economic cooperation, imperialismagainst the Islamic world, and tolerance of captive colonialists as examples, this paper shows that the relationship between Islam and the West is not unidirectional but multidirectional. Competition, conflict, and cooperation served both interests simultaneously. The interests of religion, knowledge, politics, economy, and culture before, during, and after colonization made the relationship both competitive, conflicting, and cooperative. Thus, the implication of this article is to refute Huntington’s theory and his critics by some scholars.

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of health education videos based on Islamic purification fiqh on students’ intention to wash their hands using and buying clay soap by applying the theory of planned behavior. A two-armed pre-post intervention was conducted in Banten from February to August 2022. Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention or a control group. The total sample of this research is 187 respondents. This study found that the intention to wash hands using clay soap before and after the short video educational media intervention increased by 4.3%, and the intention to buy it increased by 4.8%. In the three variables that construct the intention to wash hands using clay soap, only the subjective norm variable is related to the behavioural intention to use clay soap. Religious reasons have the potential to increase handwashing behaviour using clay soap. Short video educational media interventions targeting Generation Z can be carried out to increase the intention to practice handwashing.

NOx are harmful pollutants emitted by many industries and must be removed before the gases are released into the atmosphere. Among the various techniques used for NOx removal, reactive absorption by hydrogen peroxide in a packed column has the advantage of being able to transform NOx into nitric acid which can be recycled and reused in the plants. This work aimed at modeling the NOx absorption by means of aqueous solutions of hydrogen peroxide and nitric acid, applied in a packed column operating under different representative conditions. The model established using the Aspen software considers the equilibrium and the kinetics of the reactions taking place both in the gas phase and in the liquid phase as well as the thermodynamic properties of the chemical (molecular and ionic) components estimated using the Electrolyte NRTL model. It allows predicting NOx absorption performances in terms of efficiency and selectivity. The model was validated by comparing simulation results with experimental ones obtained in a pilot-scale absorption column and published previously. The predicted values are in satisfactory agreement with the experimental data showing a deviation between 5 and 8%. Therefore, the model developed in this work could be advantageously used to design industrial-scale reactive NOx absorption columns.

Histiocytic sarcoma is a rare and frequently missed diagnosis. With unusual and varied presentations, it typically indicates a rapid patient decline and poor outcomes. The diagnosis requires a high degree of clinical suspicion. In this case, we explore the progression of illness in a 56-year-old white male who initially presented with a 2-week history of soft-tissue nodules scattered throughout his head, neck, torso, and limbs, as well as shortness of breath and knee pain. After a thorough workup including computed tomography imaging of the neck, chest, and lower extremity, as well as a biopsy of a nodule with immunoperoxidase staining, a diagnosis of histiocytic sarcoma was established. Due to the severity of his malignancy, his hospital course was complicated by a deep vein thrombosis. Clinicians should be mindful of the risk of acute decompensation in such cases and can employ the various tenets of osteopathic theory to improve patient quality of life. Depending on the severity of illness, physicians may proceed to facilitate end-of-life measures with grace and dignity.

Background: Extrahepatic portal venous obstruction accounts for 80% of cases of portal hypertension. Of all cases of portal hypertension (PHT) in developing countries, 40% are due to portal vein thrombosis. No risk factors were found in most of the cases of extrahepatic portal hypertension. To date, numerous observational studies have reported the prevalence of antithrombin III deficiency in patients with portal vein thrombosis. In Bangladesh, a largely populated country, we see a good number of patients with EHPVO every year. But there is a lack of such studies in our country about the frequency of antithrombin III deficiency.
Objective: To find out the frequency of antithrombin III deficiency in children with extrahepatic portal hypertension.
Methods: Over a period of 18 months, this cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out at the Department of Paediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh. Children of either gender diagnosed with cases of extrahepatic portal hypertension were included in this study. Informed written consent was obtained from the parent/caregiver of each child. Data were analyzed by using SPSS 22.0 for Windows 10 (SPSS, Inc, Chicago, IL). In all cases, the significance level of p value was <0.05.
Results: A total of 18 patients diagnosed with extrahepatic portal hypertension were enrolled in this study, out of which 14 (78%) were males. The mean age at presentation was 8.6 ± 4.7 years. The most common (83%) presenting symptom was upper gastrointestinal bleeding manifested as hematemesis and melena. On physical findings, the majority (89%) of patients were pale, splenomegaly was present in 83% of patients. On full blood count, anemia was present in all (100%) patients, leucopenia in 4 (22.2%), and thrombocytopenia in 14 (78%) patients. Cavernous transformation was found in 9 (50%) patients, portal vein thrombosis (PVT) was identified in one (5.6%) patient. All (100%) patients had esophageal varices. Nine (50%) patients had Antithrombin III deficiency.
Conclusion: Antithrombin III deficiency was seen in half (50%) of the studied patients. No significant difference or association was identified between the antithrombin III deficient with the normal group in terms of clinical profile, biochemical parameters, and endoscopic findings.
