Leveraging Random Forest Machine Learning for Subgroup Classification of Medulloblastoma
Authors: Lan Bo
Published: January 2025

Medulloblastoma, the most prevalent malignant brain tumour in children, necessitates precise diagnostic methods due to its heterogeneous molecular subgroups. This study leverages Random Forest machine learning algorithms to classify medulloblastoma subgroups by analysing DNA methylation and gene expression data. Utilising the Gene Expression Omnibus dataset GSE85218 — comprising 763 primary MB samples — the study implements variance threshold feature selection for preprocessing. Models were evaluated based on precision, recall, F1 score, and accuracy — with the highest performance observed in models utilising Top 1% varied combined DNA methylation and gene expression data. Models performed similarly however, meaning only targeted gene expression and DNA methylation data are required for an accurate diagnosis. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) identified significant pathways related to neural processes, underscoring the tumour’s impact on neural development and function. Biomarkers were identified from the most important features identified by the ML model, with possible new biomarkers for subgroup diagnosis being discovered.

The paper further examines the influence of factors such as national policies, the economic environment, social demands, and technological advancements on Shenzhen’s sports city development, and proposes strategic recommendations for promoting the high-quality growth of Shenzhen’s sports sector.
Social Fatigue and the Virtual Self in Relation to Excessive Online Self-Presentation and Its Impact on Real-Life Social Interactions
Authors: Janáček Erik M. , Balázová Lucia J.
Published: January 2025

This paper explores the impact of excessive online self-presentation on social fatigue and the erosion of real-life social interactions. The phenomenon of the “virtual self,” shaped by curated online personas, fosters unrealistic expectations, emotional disconnection, and dependency on digital validation. Hyper-socialization and the cognitive load of maintaining idealized identities contribute to burnout and superficial relationships. The paper also examines cultural and societal norms that amplify or mitigate these challenges, highlighting the importance of offline engagement and authentic connections. Solutions include individual strategies such as digital mindfulness and systemic changes through platform design and policy interventions. By addressing these issues, the balance between virtual and real-world interactions can be restored, fostering healthier relationships and emotional well-being in a hyper-connected world.

Verbal instruction serves as the primary method by which teachers disseminate knowledge, while teacher feedback plays a significant role in ensuring the smooth progression of pedagogical activities. This study investigates teacher feedback language in high school English classrooms, aiming to explore feedback patterns and the preferences of both teachers and students. It also examines whether second language proficiency affects students’ engagement with feedback across affective, cognitive, and behavioral dimensions. Observations of four teachers and online questionnaires administered to students revealed nine distinct feedback patterns. Teachers frequently employed elicitation to guide students in recognizing their own errors and tended to use positive feedback. Questionnaire results showed that students preferred positive feedback over negative feedback and expected feedback to be specific and targeted. The interview indicated that high- and low-level students exhibited differences in their affective, cognitive, and behavioral engagement with teacher feedback. This study contributes empirical evidence to teacher feedback language research and offers valuable insights for English language teaching.

Designing a Novel CNN–LSTM-based Model for Arabic Handwritten Character Recognition for the Visually Impaired Person
Authors: Ayadi Manel , Masmoudi Nesrine , Almuqren Latifa , Saeed Alshahrani Hadeel , Oudah Aljohani Raneem
Published: January 2025

The field of healthcare has undergone a radical change as a consequence of the latest advancements in deep learning. Recently, the development of visual substitutes for visually impaired people (VIP) has significantly aided research on assistive technology (AT). However, there is still little usage of ATs to understand the fundamental meaning of various written substances. This research presents a novel hybrid model of convolutional neural network (CNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM) for Arabic handwritten character recognition (AHCR) to present AT for VIP. This technique offers a practical way to improve accessibility for those who are visually impaired. The CNN’s convolutional layers are used to capture both local and global patterns by extracting hierarchical information from the intricate and varied shapes in Arabic characters. After feeding these features into the LSTM network, the model comprehends the sequential nature of Arabic writing by capturing contextual information. Combining these two architectures allows the model to take advantage of temporal as well as spatial correlations, which improves recognition accuracy for complex Arabic letters. In this work, text-to-speech technology is also used to turn the recognized text into audio. To validate the model performances, we employed the publically available Arabic Handwritten Characters Dataset, which includes a range of writing situations and styles. The proposed CNN–LSTM model outperforms conventional methods for AHCR and achieves the highest accuracy of 98.07% over the state-of-the-art approaches.

Anemotion model for non-player characters inspired by neurotransmitters

Many video games depend solely on pre-written scripts, limiting character interaction complexity to what the writers and developers can explicitly design and implement. Nevertheless, real-life decision-making involves various human elements, particularly emotional relationships, which evolve unpredictably. One way to overcome the restrictions of scripted actions is to have non-player characters capable of simulating human emotions. However, the emotion models found in the literature do not adequately represent the dynamic and complex emotions that arise when an NPC is affected by an action. The Lövheim model has the advantage of associating emotions with the effects of neurotransmitters, which are directly related to what actions provoke in people. However, that model is complicated to associate with the diversity of emotions an NPC should experience in a game. In this paper, we propose a new emotion model for NPCs that combines the dynamics of the Lövheim model with the richness of Plutchik’s wheel of emotions, which we call the Extended Lövheim Cube. The combination of emotions caused by neurotransmitter variations must consider the emotional states’ fuzziness, which we consider using fuzzy logic in our model. We validate our Extended Lövheim Cube model by imposing typical in-game actions on an NPC and comparing the resultant emotions with expected ones. Our results show that the fuzzy logic was to able to keep the desired features while having acceptable accuracy values.

This study analyzes the factors influencing the competitiveness ranking of Brazilian municipalities in 2022. To do so, it uses the indicator from the Center for Public Leadership (CLP). As a quantitative metric, the Generalized Linear Models (GLM) with Tweedie distribution were employed. Data from one municipality among the 415 analyzed were excluded. The explanatory variables include social and economic factors, characteristics of managers, and fiscal management. The results indicate that Own Tax Revenue, the FIRJAN Fiscal Management Index (IFGF), and the level of completed higher education are statistically significant in explaining municipal competitiveness.

THE EXPLANATORY FACTORS OF INTERESTS AS A KEY AUDIT MATTER IN THE SEPARATE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF LISTED EUROPEAN UNION ENTITIES
Authors: Albuquerque Fábio , Gomes dos Santos Paula , Ribeiro Maria
Published: January 2025

This paper aims to identify the factors that may likely explain the identification of the investments in subsidiaries, associates, and joint ventures under International Accounting Standards (IAS) 27 as a key audit matter in the separate financial statements (SFS) of listed European entities. The final research sample is comprised of 243 entities from 18 European countries. The findings from the logistic regression performed particularly found the weight of those interests (the material relevance) within the entities’ SFS as an explanatory factor, as well as the use of the cost as the accounting method for those interests.
Keywords: associates, IAS 27, joint ventures, key audit matters, separate financial statements, subsidiaries.
EFEK PENAMBAHAN LIMBAH BATUBARA PADA LEMPUNG PLASTISITAS TINGGI TERSTABILISASI SEMEN TERHADAP CBR

Published: January 2025

Lempung plastisitas tinggi (CH) mempunyai karakteristik material jelek, seperti kembang susut besar akibat plastisitas yang tinggi sehingga diperlukan perbaikan tanah, contohnya menggunakan semen dan limbah batubara (abu dasar dan abu terbang, BAFA). Tujuan penambahan semen dan BAFA tipe C adalah untuk melihat pengaruh terhadap perubahan nilai CBR tanah. Variasi penambahan BAFA sebesar 4%, 8%, 12% dan 16% dan semen PCC 3% dan 5 %. Prosentase kandungan abu dasar terhadap abu terbang dalam BAFA adalah 2:1. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian terlihat peningkatan nilai daya dukung CBR dari 0,78% pada tanah asli, menjadi 18% pada sampel dengan campuran semen 5% dan BAFA 16% dengan pemeraman 7 hari. CBR sampel S5-B16-C7 merupakan nilai yang terbesar dari seluruh variasi sampel. Kenaikan nilai CBR tersebut sangat besar dari 0,78% sampai dengan 18,73%. Ini membuktikan bahwa kombinasi campuran mampu bekerja efektif untuk meningkatkan daya dukung tanah. Berdasarkan pengujian mikroskopik sampel CBR, dapat dilihat bahwa semakin tinggi kadar BAFA dan semen maka perubahan struktur sampel semakin terlihat lebih kasar dan pucat. Begitu juga sebaliknya, kadar BAFA yang paling kecil dan kadar semen yang paling kecil membuat struktur sampel lebih halus dan warna sampel lebih terang mendekati warna tanah asli. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa BAFA dapat digunakan sebagai campuran bahan perkerasan jalan dan memberikan solusi dampak lingkungan dari limbah industri.

Published: January 2025

Ground Granulate Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) merupakan produk sampingan atau limbah  bukan logam dari proses  produksi besi dan baja. Pemanfaatan GGBFS saat ini sudah banyak diaplikasikan sebagai bahan tambah pada campuran mortar, karena memiliki sifat pozolanik, dapat juga digunakan sebagai bahan untuk stabilisasi tanah subgrade yang tidak masuk dalam persyaratan teknis perkerasan jalan. GGBFS dijadikan bahan geopolimer bersama dengan NaOH dan Na2SiO3 sebagai alkali aktivator untuk menghasilkan ikatan polimer yang padat seperti semen. Konsentrasi NaOH 10 M yang digunakan adalah dengan rasio larutan 2,0 (Na2SiO3 terhadap NaOH), variasi kadar GGBFS sebesar 0% dan 20%, serta variasi kadar S/L (GGBFS terhadap aktivator) sebesar 1/2 dan 1/2,5; yang  dicampur dengan tanah asli untuk membuat sampel kuat tekan bebas/Unconfined Compression Test (UCT),dengan  pemeraman benda uji UCT dilakukan dengan waktu 0, 7, 14, dan 28 hari . Dari hasil pengujian sampel Tanah asli berjenis tanah OH. Hasil pengujian UCT sampel tanah asli tanpa stabilisasi dengan waktu peram 28 hari sebesar 1,59 kg/cm2, sedangkan sampel tanah yang distabilisasi (tanah 80%,GGBFS 20%, alkali activator S/L (1/2,5)) adalah sebesar 29,386 kg/cm2. Hasil pengujian UCT menunjukkan kenaikan nilai kekuatan tanah yang signifikan sehingga geopolimer dengan bahan GGBFS dan (NaOH; Na2SiO3) dapat digunakan sebagai bahan stabilisasi tanah seperti layaknya menggunakan semen Portland.

Salah satu elemen material dalam struktur jembatan adalah beton prategang. Evaluasi kinerja jembatan diperlukan untuk menentukan metode perbaikan jika terdapat potensi kegagalan konstruksi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meninjau desain jembatan beton prategang menggunakan perangkat lunak midas Civil. Struktur jembatan  dimodelkan beserta beban yang bekerja, yang meliputi Dead Load (DL), Super Imposed Dead Load (SIDL), dan beban gempa sesuai dengan SNI 1725:2016 dan SNI 2833:2016. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode analisis riwayat waktu tidak linear (non-linear time history analysis) sesuai dengan acuan NCHRP 44 dan 949. Perangkat lunak midas Civil digunakan untuk analisis. Parameter desain diambilkan dari kedua acuan, yang mencakup regangan material beton, tulangan baja, dan drift pada elemen penahan lateral (pilar jembatan) yang disusun dari material beton bertulang. Jembatan Interchange (IC) Terbanggi Besar STA. 139+925 di Jalan Tol Bakauheni – Terbanggi Besar di Provinsi Lampung digunakan sebagai fokus studi. Dengan metode analisis yang ditetapkan, penelitian ini mengidentifikasi batas kerusakan struktur jembatan pada saat pascagempa untuk menentukan kinerja struktur. Tujuh pasang ground motion dipasang, yang mewakili kondisi pada lokasi jembatan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa tingkat kinerja struktur Jembatan IC Terbanggi Besar berada pada  tingkat kinerja fully operational. Tingkat tersebut menggambarkan kondisi setelah menerima beban gempa. Kondisi jembatan masih dapat beroperasi secara optimal dan struktur jembatan masih dalam keadaan elastis. Penelitian ini mengusulkan penggunaan metode sejenis pada jembatan lain untuk mengevaluasi kinerja jembatan dan mengantisipasi kegagalan bangunan.
