Published: May 2024

Sentiment analysis is a method of analyzing emotions and using text analysis techniques with natural language processing methods. Sentiment analysis uses data from various sources to identify the user’s attitude through different aspects. It is widely used for extracting opinions and recognizing sentiments, which helps Business organizations understand the user’s needs. This paper proposes a simple but compelling sentiment analysis method, showing the combined scores based on positive and negative words. Then, the tweets are categorized as Neutral, Negative, or Positive according to the scores. Sentiment analysis and opinion mining have grown significantly in the last decade. Different studies in this domain try to determine people’s feelings, opinions, and emotions about something or someone. The main objective of this analysis is to determine the sentiment of the review using a machine learning model and then compare the result with the manual review of the data. This would allow researchers to represent and analyze opinions objectively across different domains. A hybrid method that combines a supervised machine learning algorithm with natural language processing techniques is suggested for review analysis. This project aims to find the best model to predict the sentiment of the tweets on airlines. During the research process and considering various methods and variables that should be considered, we found that methods like naïve Bayes and random forest were not fully explored. The proposed system improves an effective and more feasible method for sentimental analysis using machine learning, multinomialNB, linear regression, and regular expression.

Published: May 2024

In the realm of digital imaging, enhancing low-resolution images to high-definition quality is a pivotal challenge, particularly crucial for applications in medical imaging, security, and remote sensing. Traditional methods, primarily relying on basic interpolation techniques, often result in images that lack detail and fidelity. GANSharp introduces an innovative GAN-based framework that substantially improves the generator network, incorporating adversarial and perceptual loss functions for enhanced image reconstruction. The core issue addressed is the loss of critical information during down-sampling processes. To counteract this, we proposed a GAN-based method leveraging deep learning algorithms, trained using sets of both low- and high-resolution images. Our approach, which focuses on expanding the generator network’s size and depth and integrating adversarial and perceptual loss, was thoroughly evaluated on various benchmark datasets. The experimental results showed remarkable outcomes. On the Set5 dataset, our method achieved a PSNR of 34.18 dB and a SSIM of 0.956. Comparatively, on the Set14 dataset, it yielded a PSNR of 31.16 dB and an SSIM of 0.920, and on the B100 dataset, it achieved a PSNR of 30.51 dB and an SSIM of 0.912. These results were superior or comparable to those of existing advanced algorithms, demonstrating the proposed method’s potential in generating high-quality, high-resolution images. Our research underscores the potency of GANs in image super-resolution, making it a promising tool for applications spanning medical diagnostics, security systems, and remote sensing. Future exploration could extend to the utilization of alternative loss functions and novel training techniques, aiming to further refine the efficacy of GAN-based image restoration algorithms.

This study utilized several coupled approaches to create powerful algorithms for forecasting the compressive strength (Cs) of concretes that include metakaolin (MK) and fly ash (FA). For this purpose, three various methods were considered, named random forests (RF), Categorical boosting model (CB), and extreme gradient boosting (XGB) by considering the seven most influential input variables. It was tried to divide the concrete components to binder value (B) to achieve the non-dimensional input variables. Herein, the cutting-edge Tasmanian devil Optimization (TDO) algorithm was linked with RF, XGB, and CB for the purpose of determining the optimal values of hyperparameters (named TD - CB, TD - RF, and TD - XG). It is worth mentioning that developing the mentioned algorithms optimized with TD to estimate the mechanical properties of the concrete containing several important admixtures can be recognized as this study’s contribution to practical applications. The findings indicate that the algorithms possess a notable capacity to precisely forecast the Cs of concrete, which includes MK and FA, with R2 bigger than roughly 0.97. The lower value of OBJ comprehensive index belonged to the TD - CB at 1.5762, followed by TD - XG at 1.9943 and then 2.3317 related to TD - RF with almost 70% reduction. The sensitivity analysis demonstrated that the prediction of Cs is highly influenced by all input parameters, which are higher than 0.8659, but a higher influence from MK/B at 0.9548.

BACKGROUND: Delamanid (DLM) is a relatively new drug for drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) that has been used in Indonesia since 2019 despite its limited safety data. DLM is known to inhibit hERG potassium channel with the potential to cause QT prolongation which eventually leads to Torsades de pointes (TdP). OBJECTIVE: This study aims to analyse the changes of QTc interval in DR-TB patients on DLM regimen compared to shorter treatment regimens (STR). METHODS: A retrospective cohort was implemented on secondary data obtained from two participating hospitals. The QTc interval and the changes in QTc interval from baseline (ΔQTc) were assessed every 4 weeks for 24 weeks. RESULTS: The maximum increased of QTc interval and ΔQTc interval were smaller in the DLM group with mean difference of 18,6 (95%CI 0.3 to 37.5) and 31.6 milliseconds (95%CI 14.1 to 49.1) respectively. The proportion of QTc interval prolongation in DLM group were smaller than STR group (RR=0.62; 95%CI 0.42 to 0.93). CONCLUSION: This study has shown that DLM regimens are less likely to increase QTc interval compared to STR. However, close monitoring of the risk of QT interval prolongation needs to be carried out upon the use of QT interval prolonging antituberculoid drugs.

BACKGROUND: Work-related musculoskeletal disorders for upper limbs (UL-WMSDs) form a complex of occupational diseases common to many professions worldwide. UL-WMSDs are manifested in most cases by pain, resulting in musculoskeletal discomfort. OBJECTIVE: This research aimed to evaluate the perception of musculoskeletal discomfort in workers from the interior of the Brazilian states of Alagoas and Bahia through the construction of a scale to assess musculoskeletal discomfort for upper limb. METHODS: The discomfort assessment scale was constructed from self-reported pain symptoms by 420 workers from the inner regions of the Brazilian states of Alagoas and Bahia. The reliability and dimensionality of the collected data were analyzed by McDonald’s Omega and exploratory factor analysis, respectively. Item Response Theory (IRT) was used to create parameters for the discomfort scale. RESULTS: The musculoskeletal discomfort metric was constructed from the workers’ response with six levels (varying from minimum discomfort to maximum discomfort). At the lowest level of the scale, workers indicated symptoms in the shoulders and wrists were rare. At the highest level of the scale, daily pain symptoms are reported in all regions of the upper limbs. The shoulders are the last region to develop extreme pain symptoms. CONCLUSION: The metric was created to present satisfactory psychometric properties and capable measurement of the workers’ level of musculoskeletal discomfort based on self-reported pain symptoms. Therefore, the metric can support measuring discomfort, contributing to decisions that improve a healthier occupational environment for the worker.

Quantifying the effect of X-ray scattering for data generation in real-time defect detection
Authors: Andriiashen Vladyslav , van Liere Robert , van Leeuwen Tristan , Batenburg Kees Joost
Published: May 2024

BACKGROUND:

X-ray imaging is widely used for the non-destructive detection of defects in industrial products on a conveyor belt. In-line detection requires highly accurate, robust, and fast algorithms. Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) satisfy these requirements when a large amount of labeled data is available. To overcome the challenge of collecting these data, different methods of X-ray image generation are considered.

OBJECTIVE:

Depending on the desired degree of similarity to real data, different physical effects should either be simulated or can be ignored. X-ray scattering is known to be computationally expensive to simulate, and this effect can greatly affect the accuracy of a generated X-ray image. We aim to quantitatively evaluate the effect of scattering on defect detection.

METHODS:

Monte-Carlo simulation is used to generate X-ray scattering distribution. DCNNs are trained on the data with and without scattering and applied to the same test datasets. Probability of Detection (POD) curves are computed to compare their performance, characterized by the size of the smallest detectable defect.

RESULTS:

We apply the methodology to a model problem of defect detection in cylinders. When trained on data without scattering, DCNNs reliably detect defects larger than 1.3 mm, and using data with scattering improves performance by less than 5%. If the analysis is performed on the cases with large scattering-to-primary ratio (1 <  SPR < 5), the difference in performance could reach 15% (approx. 0.4 mm).

CONCLUSION:

Excluding the scattering signal from the training data has the largest effect on the smallest detectable defects, and the difference decreases for larger defects. The scattering-to-primary ratio has a significant effect on detection performance and the required accuracy of data generation.

Interaction design is a multidisciplinary profession in which psychology plays an important role. The purpose of design is to solve the problem, and a better solution can provide a better user experience, so the key to our user experience lies in the user's psychology. As early as the end of the Spring and Autumn period in China, the first theoretical document on design "Kaogong Ji" recorded the "five elements and five colors" (color), and the importance and role of humanistic care for design. Color affects our perceptual system, and color psychology is a subjective feedback to the objective world. On the basis of introducing the concept of color psychology and interaction design, the principles and methods of interaction design are proposed by using color psychology.

The article presents the results of research on the growth dynamics of rainbow trout from fingerling to marketable fish using feeds with different compositions of components and nutrient contents. For the experiment, two age groups of rainbow trout individuals, control and experimental, were formed, which were kept in tanks with a total volume of 30 m3 and fed with feeds with different nutrient contents. For feeding the experimental fish, dry pelleted feed for trout was used, which has an optimal balance of cost and nutritive value, resulting in high growth rates with a low feed coefficient. The feed is made from high-quality Ukrainian ingredients with good nutritional and flavor characteristics, stimulating fish feed intake, and is balanced in terms of essential nutrients and biologically active substances, which positively affects the physiological condition of salmonid fish and their growth rates. The daily ration was determined depending on the fish's weight and the water temperature in the tanks according to the feed manufacturer's recommendations. The effectiveness of using pelleted compound feeds for trout was evaluated based on indicators such as fish survival, fish productivity, and feed consumption. At the same time, the physicochemical parameters were monitored throughout the entire experimental period. The duration of growing rainbow trout fingerlings was 245 days. As a result, 3230 specimens of fingerlings with a mass of 25.6 g were obtained in the control, and 3400 specimens were obtained in the experiment with a mass of 28.5 g. The yield from the cultivation was 76 % and 80 %, respectively. Fish productivity was slightly higher in the basin where the experimental group of fingerlings was kept. The total weight of the harvested fish from the experimental group was greater by 14.2 kg. To obtain marketable products, rainbow trout fingerlings were stocked in 30 m3 tanks. The average weight of fish in the control group at stocking was 25.6 g, and in the experimental group, it was 28.5 g. 3100 specimens of fingerlings were stocked in each tank. The duration of cultivation was 215 days. 2805 specimens were harvested from the tanks, 250.5 g from the control tank, and 268.5 g from the experimental tank. The total weight of the harvested fish and fish productivity were slightly higher in the fish from the experimental group. As a result of the conducted research, it was established that feeding fish with feeds differing in nutritional value contributes to increasing the productivity of rainbow trout farming.
Features of digestion in the middle intestine of the honey bee
Authors: Kovalskyi Yu. , Gavdan R.
Published: May 2024

The midgut of the honey bee is considered the only midgut. Processes related to digestion take place in this department. At the same time, the middle intestine takes part in the processes that indicate the immune status. The purpose of the research was to study the effect of protein feed on the morphometric parameters of the epithelium of the midgut of honeybees and the peretrophic membrane. Two groups of families participated in the study. The first group received bee pollen collected from winter rape with a protein content of 25 % as protein feed. The second group consumed dandelion meal with a protein content of 15 %. After reaching the required age, the insects were taken from the nest, and the midgut was dissected. The conducted studies indicate that the length of the enterocytes of the midgut of a honey bee at the age of 10 days ranges from 18.89 to 34.11 μm. Morphometric differences of midgut enterocytes in the experimental groups did not reveal any significant difference. It has been proven that the thickness of the pertrophic membrane in hive bees is greater than that of flying bees by 22.7 % (P < 0.001). This value depends on the area where it is placed. In particular, in the caudal part, the thickness of the pertrophic membrane is more significant on average by 25.0 % compared to the cranial part (P < 0.01). The decrease in the thickness of the midgut of flying bees is related to the nature of nutrition. Older bees consume less pollen and eat more carbohydrate feed. Along with this, it has been proven that the thickness of the pertrophic membrane depends on the composition of the diet. In hive bees that consumed protein-enriched feed, the thickness of the pertrophic membrane in the caudal part of the midgut is 22.1 % greater (P < 0.001).
Biochemical and hematological characteristics of blood indicators, productivi-ty of piglets under the influence of additional feed “Activo”
Authors: Prudyus T. Ya.
Published: May 2024

The article discusses the issue of the condition of the piglets' bodies before and after weaning after feeding the additional feed “Activo.” The object of the study was piglets born from sows of the large white breed of ADN genetics. Piglets were divided into control (n = 111) and experimental (n = 110). From the 5th to the 43rd day of life, the piglets were given pre-starter compound feed in loose form. In the research group's pre-starter compound feed, “Activo,” was introduced in the amount of 0.2 kg/t of finished compound feed. Blood was collected from the cranial vena cava of the piglets of the control and experimental groups for biochemical and hematological parameters on the 28th and 43rd days of the piglets' life. Productivity control was carried out by weighing animals on the day of birth, at weaning, and on the 43rd day of life. Feed consumption was monitored, and average daily gains and feed conversion were determined. According to the results of the research on piglets before weaning, we can see an increase in the total protein level in the experimental group's blood by 2.85 % compared to the control group. The albumin concentration in the control group's piglets was 47.33 %, and the experimental group was 48.00 %, which is 1.42 % more than the control group. There was also an increase in α-, β-, and γ-globulins in the experimental group. After piglets were weaned, a probable increase in total protein and albumin was noted in the experimental group by 3.96 % and 1.85 %, respectively, in the control group.  At the beginning of the experiment, the piglets of the control and experimental groups had a slight difference in live weight, which was 3.35 % in favor of the control group. Already on the 28th day of life, the piglets of the research group had a live weight statistically higher by 6.58 % (P < 0.001) concerning the control. Thus, for 14 days of the experiment after weaning, the increase in live weight of piglets of the experimental group probably increased by 11.9 % (Р < 0.01), and the difference in the weight of piglets between the control and experimental groups was 0.88 kg, or 8.15 % (P < 0.001). The average daily growth rate of piglets in the experimental group also increased by 11.8 % (Р < 0.01). The difference in feed conversion between the control and experimental groups is 0.19 kg or 10.8 %.
