Using Genetic Algorithm to Solve Puzzle Games: A Review
Authors: Bukhori Iksan , Felix Jason , Ali Saddam
Published: January 2024

Puzzles have been recognized for their development as a popular form of entertainment due to their ability to intricately challenge the mind while engendering creativity in the player. The development of puzzle games has given rise to a new generation of puzzle games characterized by diverse sequences and different image variations. With the rapid development of puzzle games, we looked at solving approaches using Genetic Algorithms (GA). In this paper, we try to analyze several puzzle games such as Sliding Blocks, Sudoku, Tic-Tac-Toe, and Jigsaw that can be solved using GA. We found that 120 papers have examined the use of GA for puzzle games, and eliminated into 14 papers. We evaluated these 14 papers for each puzzle game we selected by comparing the chromosome representation, GA operator, GA parameters, and the results. Based on the discussion, the application of GA to solve puzzle games can be effectively executed with a high degree of accuracy. Puzzle games that use measurement methods such as Sliding Block, Sudoku, and Jigsaw run in a similar pattern. What is common to all of them is that the chromosomes are represented as matrices or arrays in all cases, and standard genetic operators such as selection, crossover, and mutation are used. The population size is large, often 1000 chromosomes, and parameters such as mutation rate are kept low, around 5%. On the other hand, the performance of GA for solving Tetris and Tic-Tac-Toe from each publication cannot be compared due to different measurement methods and metrics.

Published: January 2024

Waste detection plays an essential role in ensuring efficient waste management. Convolutional Neural Networks are used in visual waste detection to improve waste management. This study uses a data set that covers various categories of waste, such as plastic, paper, metal, glass, trash, and cardboard. Convolutional Neural Networks are created and trained with refined architecture to achieve precise classification results. During the model development stage, the focus is on utilizing transfer learning techniques to implement Convolutional Neural Networks. Utilizing pre-trained models will speed up and improve the learning process by enriching the representation of waste features. By using the information embedded in the trained model, the Convolutional Neural Network can differentiate the specific attributes of various waste categories more accurately. Utilizing transfer learning allows models to adapt to real-world scenarios, thereby improving their ability to generalize and accurately identify waste that may exhibit significant variation in appearance. Combining these methodologies enhances the ability to identify waste in diverse environmental conditions, facilitates efficient waste management, and can be adapted to contemporary needs in environmental remediation. The model evaluation shows satisfactory performance, with a recognition accuracy of about 73%. Additionally, experiments are conducted under authentic circumstances to assess the reliability of the system under realistic circumstances. This study provides a valuable contribution to the advancement of waste detection systems that can be integrated into waste management with optimal efficiency.

Against Over-reliance on PRISMA Guidelines for Meta-analytical Studies
Authors:   Independent Researcher, Kagawa-ken, Japan, Teixeira da Silva Jaime A. , Daly Timothy ,   Bioethics Program, FLACSO Argentina, Buenos Aires, Argentina,   Science Norms Democracy, Sorbonne Université, Paris, France
Published: January 2024

The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were elaborated to allow authors of such papers to identify quality articles for inclusion in their scholarly work. However, we have identified several issues that point to an over-reliance on the PRISMA guidelines. Firstly, we question the rigor of implementation by authors and the rigor of verification by peer reviewers and editors, and whether they have screened papers to ensure adherence to the PRISMA guidelines. Secondly, we have identified cases where the PRISMA criteria led to as much as 99.97% of the published literature being ignored, suggesting that valid publications meeting these criteria might be at risk of being ignored. Thirdly, we have noted that exclusion is not only a quantitative problem—it is also a qualitative one, since the screening procedure groups all non-conforming literature into one basket. Fourthly, we have noted that seven copies of the PRISMA guidelines exist. This being the case, which one should be cited? To replace over-reliance on PRISMA screening, we encourage authors, peer reviewers, and editors to publish systematic reviews and meta-analyses that respect the dual criteria of scientific plausibility and diversity of included papers.
Determinants of Income Composition Inequality
Authors: Petrova Bilyana , Ranaldi Marco
Published: January 2024

A rich literature examines the determinants of income inequality. Less is known about the distribution of income composition, or the extent to which different socio-economic groups hold different sources of income. This article explores the drivers of income composition inequality (ICI).
Contrary to recent studies, which show that the composition of government has ceased to shape redistribution and income inequality dynamics, this article posits that left-wing parties are associated with lower income composition inequality. We test this expectation with data from thirty European
countries between 2003 and 2017. Our results suggest that the polarization between capital and labor income holders declines under left-wing governments. We establish that this is mainly because left-wing parties seek to broaden access to capital income.

Authors: Allily Rowida , Mouminah Haneen
Published: January 2024

Background: Phthalates are chemical compounds that have the tendency to migrate into food and beverages, thereby leading to negative health consequences. Aims: was to assess the knowledge of phthalates and practices relating to plastic use among adults residing in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, with an emphasis on cheese wrapped in plastic materials. Material and Methods: A total of 435 adult participants completed an online questionnaire consisting of three sections 1) socio-demographic characteristics, 2) knowledge-related phthalates, and 3) practices related to plastic use. All collected data were verified and analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Results: Our findings revealed that 64.1% of the respondents had poor knowledge regarding plastics and phthalates with gender being a significant factor (p=0.0003). The usage rate of plastic material was found to be remarkably high with 38.2% keeping the purchased cheese either in its original plastic wrapping or placed inside plastic boxes. Moreover, 53.6% never viewed the safe plastic number before purchasing the food products. However Interestingly enough, the type of plastics did not influence participant’s decision-making process when it came down to purchasing or consuming cheese (45.1% & 46.2%, respectively). Respondents who had poor practice represented up to 85 %, while those with poor knowledge and practice constituted 65.1%. However, no significant link between these two factors could be established. Conclusions: Poor awareness levels concerning phthalates along with imprudent usage rates for plastics were observed among adults living within Jeddah city's boundaries; thus, appropriate interventions aimed at raising awareness need implementation so as minimize exposure risks associated with this issue.

Published: January 2024

This research tries to analyze the explicit and implicit impact of the smooth supply chain and fairness of the tax system on corporate taxpayer compliance and its implications for state tax revenues. This research uses quantitative methods, using random sampling techniques, and obtained a sample of 100 respondents consisting of various MSMEs registered with the Ministry of Cooperatives and SMEs in 2023 who are taxpayers in South Jakarta City, DKI Jakarta Province, Indonesia. The data obtained from the surveys was utilized in Structural Equation Modelling with Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) for additional analysis. Research results and data analysis show that tax system equity has a direct and significant impact on corporate taxpayer compliance; tax system fairness directly has no and minimal impact on state tax revenues; and corporate taxpayer compliance directly and significantly impacts state tax revenues. A smooth supply chain has a direct and substantial impact on corporate taxpayer compliance. Furthermore, a smooth supply chain has a direct and substantial influence on state tax collections. A seamless supply chain and state tax revenues are largely mediated by corporate taxpayer compliance, which has a substantial impact on both. Furthermore, the relationship between the fairness of the tax system and state tax collections in MSMEs in South Jakarta City is totally mediated by corporate taxpayer compliance.

Objective: Shoulder pain, a common musculoskeletal issue, is most prevalent in patients aged 50-59. It can cause sleep problems, reducing sleep quality. We aimed to explore the relationship between sleep quality, pain, and disability in patients with shoulder pain, despite limited literature on this issue.

Material-Method: Study involved 91 patients aged 18-80 with persistent shoulder pain sought out at a physical medicine and rehabilitation outpatient clinic. Factors such as age, gender, education, symptom duration, body mass index (BMI), occupation, and pain severity were recorded. Severity of pain was assessed using the visual analogue scale (VAS), pain and disability using the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI), and sleep quality using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).

Results: Average age was 54.9. 63% of patients were female and 28% were male. 14% of them had heavy work above shoulder level. A positive correlation was detected between PSQI and VAS and SPADI (p value 0.004 and 0.003, respectively). No significant relationship was found between PSQI and BMI and symptom duration (p value 0.464 and 0.718, respectively). While there was a significant difference in SPADI values between two groups with and without heavy work above the shoulder level, no significant difference was detected in PSQI values (p value 0.021 and 0.36, respectively).

Conclusion: We found that the patient's VAS and SPADI values and sleep quality were negatively related to shoulder pain. Sleep disturbance due to pain at night can also affect daytime disability. Pain and sleep quality disorders can enter a vicious circle.
