Published: July 2024

Kabupaten Tulungagung memiliki jumlah petani yang cukup banyak dengan komoditas yang ditanam adalah cabai. Hal tersebut dapat dilihat dari demografi yang ada dalam bahwa muncul lahan pertanian yang ditanami cabai, namun hal tersebut tidak serta merta membuat petani merasa senang dikarenakan hasil panen yang melimpah tetapi para petani mengalami permasalahan akan hasil panen mereka yang tidak dapat maksimal dikarenakan tanaman mereka terkena hama, jamur pada daun. Hal tersebut diakibatkan cuaca yang sering kali turun hujan sehingga hal tersebut membuat tanaman mereka mudah busuk karena meningkatkan PH tanah didaerah tersebut. Perawatan ekstra juga dilakukan oleh petani yakni dengan melakukan penyemprotan serta memberikan kapur pada tanah untuk mengembalikan PH tanah.  Upaya lain yang dilakukan untuk peningkatkan mutu dari cabai adalah dengan pemberian pupuk organik cair. Pemupukan bermaksud guna memperoleh cabai yang lebat dan besar buahnya. Tipe pupuk yang dikasihkan mesti cocok dengan kondisi, situasi, serta umur cabai. Target dari program pemberdayaan ini merupakan petani cabai yang terletak di area Dusun Waung Kecamatan Boyolangu Kabupaten Tulungagung. Pada proses pemupukan pada tanaman cabai memerlukan cara dan waktu yang tepat. Apabila petani salah dalam pemberian pupuk pada tanaman cabai akan dapat membuat tanaman tidak sehat bahkan mati. Program pemberdayaan ini dilakukan bersama dengan Balai Penyuluhan Pertanian Kecamatan Boyolangu Kabupaten Tulungagung. Dalam upaya pemberian pupuk tersebut merupakan salah satu upaya untuk meningkatkan produktivitas cabai di wilayah tersebut sehingga dapat meningkatkan perekonomian petani.

Deep learning has been proven to be able to provide significant contributions to several fields, including industry. It has also been proven that it has resulted in an outstanding performance for classification, detection, and even segmentation processes. In the leather industry, it also successfully gave valuable results, especially for the leather defect inspection process. However, despite its outstanding performance, it remained a drawback because it produced insignificant results if employed in a small or imbalanced dataset. This research work focuses on the analysis of the implementation of the data balancing method for improving the performance of the deep learning method for classifying the types of leather defects. This research work was done by employing three processes. In the first step, we utilized the data balancing method to balance the data proportion. In the next step, we employed GoogLeNet as a deep learning architecture for training and testing processes. Our experiment was conducted in two scenarios. The first scenario was done by using the original dataset. Whereas the second scenario was accomplished by utilizing the data balancing method before training and testing. According to the experiment results, implementing the data balancing method successfully increased the performance of the deep learning method by more than 15%. It can be inferred that the proportion or the number of data strongly affected the performance of deep learning models.

KONSEP PARENTING ERA SOCIETY 5.0
Authors: Khaidir Muallifah
Published: July 2024

Advances in technology today, make everyone's lifestyle change. One of them is the education sector, the main education that will be given by parents to children. This will be the focus point of this research. The ease of accessing information today is quite troubling because children can easily consume various information in the form of various dimensions (audio, visual and audio-visual). So it is very possible that they will receive hoax information and so on. Namely information that contains negative content. Not only that, children also have a tendency to be so engrossed in playing with their gadgets that they forget the life around them. This is neither unavoidable for parents nor is it the best way to isolate them from this digital advancement. However, parents should better understand and follow the times. Because the wrong educational process will experience deviations so that it slips into something that is not expected. In this era of society 5.0, a technological transformation allows access in virtual spaces that feel like physical spaces. In the era of society 5.0, it is possible for children who study formally directly to deal with robots or applications specifically designed to replace educators or controlled by educators remotely and this is interactive. Therefore, a new concept is needed so that parental education for children remains adaptive, namely smart modeling and techno modeling.

Published: July 2024

With China’s population aging rapidly, the challenge of preserving and enhancing the health of its older citizens has gained paramount importance. Leveraging data from the fourth wave of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study, this study examines the relationship between socioeconomic status and well-being of older adults in the context of China’s evolving demographic landscape. Empirical analysis reveals compelling statistical evidence that underscores the significant influence of socioeconomic status on the health outcomes of older adults. Notably, socioeconomic factors such as education level, place of residence, household registration (hukou [户口]) type, and Communist Party of China membership significantly affect the mental and cognitive well-being of older adults, with a more pronounced impact on mental health. These findings emphasize the need for targeted policies to address disparities and promote holistic well-being as China grapples with an aging population.

Managing Mental Health Challenges in Organizations: An Exploratory Study of the Problems of Misunderstanding, Invisibility and Responsibility
Authors: Ruozzi-Lopez Alberto , Alvarez-Suescun Emilio
Published: July 2024

Despite the increasing number of workers worldwide experiencing mental disorders, many organizations lack knowledge and understanding of how to support them effectively. We argue that this is partially a consequence of three problems surrounding the management of mental health in organizations: misunderstanding, invisibility, and responsibility. This study aims to overcome misconceptions attached to those problems by providing empirical evidence on three issues: a) experiencing mental health challenges leads to inevitably experiencing a disability? b) to what extent do organizations know about their employees’ mental health challenges? c) do mental problems preclude employees from thriving at work and enjoying work-life balance? To do so, we analyze the disclosure of mental health conditions and the levels of anxiety, depression, disabilities, thriving at work, and work-life balance in a sample of 212 employees with and without a diagnosis of mental disorder. Our findings challenge some preconceived notions as they suggest that: a) suffering from a mental disorder does not always lead to higher disabilities, and, on the contrary, even non-diagnosed employees may experience high degrees of disabilities; b) mental health challenges are still notably invisible within organizations; and c) there seems to be an inverse relationship between the severity of mental problems and the degree of thriving at work and work-life balance. Accordingly, we propose future research avenues and practical recommendations to address the problems of misunderstanding, responsibility, and invisibility.

This article presents a methodology to estimate disparities in factor endowments in a dynamic Heckscher-Ohlin model. The model integrates a static approach to intraindustry trade of two goods and two factors. By employing a Cobb-Douglas production function model (2 goods, 2 factors), we identify convergences and divergences in production, influenced by the elasticity of substitution between inputs. Our findings illustrate that, even if factor prices equalize, countries differing only in their initial capital-to-labor ratios may converge or diverge in income levels over time. Divergence can occur for parameter values that would imply convergence in a world of closed economies, and open ones.

Avoiding or Accepting the Unknown: Asylum in the European Union
Authors: Grinaj Michaela
Published: July 2024

Many scholars have already dedicated their attention to the perceived migration crisis in Europe and related phenomena. The objective of the present paper is to examine tendencies of selected European national cultures to accept diversity and people with a migration background. The research hypothesis posits that countries with low Uncertainty Avoidance Index are more likely to accept migrants and refugees in their territory; while, on the contrary, countries that have relatively higher Uncertainty Avoidance Index tend to be more sceptical in regard to accepting migrants and refugees. In the study a variety of qualitative and mixed research methods (such as qualitative desk research, comparative analysis, and cluster analysis) are used. Firstly, applying the Uncertainty Avoidance Dimension by Hofstede, the European Union Member States are separated into four clusters according to their ranking within the Uncertainty Avoidance Index. Next, utilising data collected within the project MAGYC, the EU Member States are ranked according to the number of asylum centres, detention centres or similar facilities per capita. Finally, the countries with the highest Uncertainty Avoidance Index and the lowest number of asylum centres per capita are compared providing a comparison of the countries with the lowest Index and the highest number of asylum facilities per capita. The constructed simplified model allows for answering the question whether certain relation between inclination to avoid the unknown and the willingness of national cultures to accept migrants and refugees exists, concluding that the hypothesis is valid only in the case of several countries.
BOOK REVIEW of
European Democracy and Single Market: 30 Years of the Maastricht Treaty
Authors: Messina Michele
Published: July 2024

The book under review focuses on two of the most important aspects of the development of the EU integration process – the strengthening of the EU founding value of democracy and the achievement of the EU Single market objective following the entering into force of the Maastricht Treaty. The collective volume features authors coming from different national and academic backgrounds. The democracy-market nexus is approached from a number of perspectives, not always much explored in the past. The analyses seems to suggest that a durable evolution of the EU integration process can only be based on basic principles or founding values of the EU, like in the case of democracy, which is one of the most important ingredients for a European Single market, focused more on social and environmental issues rather than economic ones.

Authors: Zheng Xilong , Yan Jinshuo , Wang Yi , Sun Baitao , Li Peng
Published: July 2024

In order to investigate the mechanical properties of polyurethane cement (PUC) composite materials, axial tensile test, acid and alkali corrosion resistance test, bond test with concrete, and bond test with steel bars were conducted. The axial tensile results show that the tensile strength of PUC material is 31.11MPa, the stress-strain curve for axial tensile behavior of the material is obtained through fitting. To explore the durability of PUC materials, acid-alkali-salt corrosion resistance test is carried out, the results show that the PUC material has good resistance to acid and alkali corrosion. The failure mode of the bond test between PUC material and concrete is internal cohesion failure of concrete material, indicating good bond performance of PUC material. Axial tensile test of PUC material is carried out at different temperatures (-40℃~60℃). When subjected to temperatures between 40�C and 60�C, the strength of materials does not deteriorate. However, it is noteworthy that the material�s ability to withstand tensile strain significantly increases as temperatures rise to 60�C. The bonding strength between PUC material and steel bar increases with an increase in protective layer thickness, and at a thickness of 70 mm, the maximum bond stress is achieved at 16.38 MPa. On the other hand, the strength of the bond reduces as the anchorage length increases. Smooth round bars demonstrate a significantly lower bond strength compared to deformed bars, as their maximum bond strength is at approximately 47.4% of that of the deformed bars under the same conditions.

Authors: Kayathri K. , Kavitha Dr. K.
Published: July 2024

This research proposes an integrated approach for automated diabetic retinopathy (DR) diagnosis, leveraging a combination of machine learning and deep learning techniques to extract features and perform classification tasks effectively. Through preprocessing of retinal images to enhance features and mitigate noise, two distinct methodologies are employed: machine learning feature extraction, targeting texture features like Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) and Gray-Level Run Length Matrix (GLRLM), and deep learning feature extraction, utilizing pre-trained convolutional neural networks (CNNs) such as VGG, ResNet, or Inception. Following feature extraction, various classifiers, including Support Vector Machines (SVM), Random Forests, and Gradient Boosting Machines, are trained on the extracted features for DR classification. Alternatively, deep learning classifiers like CNNs or recurrent neural networks (RNNs) may be trained directly on the extracted features or on raw images. This comprehensive framework shows promising potential to improve the accuracy and efficiency of diabetic retinopathy (DR) diagnosis, enabling timely intervention and management of this vision-threatening condition.
A Cascaded H-Bridge Multilevel Inverter with DC Cells Input Fault Tolerance Capability Based on PSC-PWM Control
Authors: Khalili Tajeddine , Raihani Abdelhadi , Kadri Amal , Saghir Soukaina , Oulcaid Mustapha
Published: July 2024

Multilevel inverters have proven their efficiency in generating better AC voltage outputs. This functional quality is mainly due to the use of multi-source DC inputs. Despite the fact that this type of topology is generally reliable, switching faults caused by the complete loss of a switching component or DC input cell may still occur. Such incident may inflict heavy impacts to the conversion chain resulting in a permanent damage to the switching cells or the connected load. This article presents a dynamic switching control strategy capable of tolerating DC cells open-circuit input faults in basic symmetric Cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter architectures. The proposed topology uses a control scheme to overcome the switching cells’ fault by adapting the configured level of conversion and bypassing the flawed unit with no additional switching components. Furthermore, the proposed control strategy is capable of reversing back the inverter configuration to its original functional state after the disappearance of the faut. This research article answers the need for a theorical study of a fault tolerant Cascaded H-Bridge multilevel inverter where the short circuit’s fault types are bypassed by Pulse width modulation alteration only.

In the case of the metropolitan area model, interest rates, consumer price indices, population growth rates, and fertility rates were the main factors influencing the housing sales market. The five metropolitan city models are the main factors influencing interest rates, economic growth rates, and consumer price indices, while the explanatory power of the fertility rate is very low. Considering these results, housing can be classified as an investment product in the metropolitan area, and local cities can be classified as a housing sales market with strong characteristics as a consumer product. Long-term housing sales are not expected to increase significantly due to the recent decline in investment and real demand due to the stabilization of housing prices due to high-interest rates. The housing brokerage market needs to be developed into a convergence field by combining highly relevant management and consulting.

The agricultural sector changed with increased maize production due to the Agropolitan program, but further efforts are needed to improve farmers' income and rural economic diversification. Surveys on community satisfaction revealed improvements in the quality of public services and governance and accountability enhancements. Despite positive achievements, Gorontalo Province still faces challenges in achieving better and sustainable performance in improving community welfare.
