An Intelligent Mobile Application to Assist in Detecting Metals in Fish and Seafood using Machine Learning and Object Detection
Authors: Qiao Zixiu , Xu-Zhang Alan
Published: November 2024

The fish we eat everyday may well likely contain heavy metals, which are detrimental for one’s health [1]. There are many solutions out there, such as machines and sensors that could detect the amounts of metals in a fish, but for the average person, these solutions are not the most convenient. My app, however, is an easy and convenient way to figure out if your fish has metals. All you need to do is take a picture of your fish and the app will use an AI system to inform you about the levels of metals in the fish and some tips and facts on how to cook the fish. I experimented with the AI accuracy and the accessibility of my app. I can say that the AI is quite accurate and my app is accessible to all IOS devices [2]. Ultimately, my app should be used by everyone because it’s quick, easy to use and access, and doesn’t require any professional knowledge about fish.
Material Visions: Advancing Crystal Structure Prediction with Powerful Text Generation Models
Authors: Maarefdoust Reihaneh , Zhang Xin , Mansouri Behrooz , Song Yuqi
Published: November 2024

The discovery of new materials has been a protracted and labor-intensive endeavor, relying on iterative trial-and-error methodologies. Recently, materials informatics has been transforming this process by employing advanced data science and computational tools to expedite the discovery of novel materials, such as generative design material formulas, and predict material properties. However, predicting crystal three-dimensional structures remains a challenging task rooted in both the fundamental nature of materials and the limitations of current computational methods. Inspired by the power and success of artificial intelligence (AI) models, especially the deep learning techniques and natural language processing (NLP) algorithms, we consider capturing complex atom descriptions and relationships as text information and explore whether we can use the ability of language models to predict atomic coordinates. In this work, we explore multiple text generation models and employ the Longformer-Encoder-Decoder (LED) model to construct preliminary crystal structures based on detailed atom descriptions. Subsequently, these structures are further refined by a random forest regressor, which generates the final crystal configurations. Our experiments show this method excels in capturing the intricate atom relationships and effectively translating these associations into the specified crystal formats. We also focus on optimizing data representation for both atom descriptions and crystal structures and use clear metrics to evaluate accuracy and stability. Our results indicate that this method has promising potential and could improve the prediction of material crystal structures.

Authors: Lu Lauren Peng , Zhou Victor
Published: November 2024

Designify is an innovative application that integrates artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR) to revolutionize interior design [1]. The project leverages Google’s Gemini AI model to provide users with personalized furniture recommendations based on room dimensions and layout, while the AR system allows for real-time visualization and interaction with virtual furniture [2]. Two key experiments were conducted to evaluate the system’s effectiveness: the first tested the accuracy of the AI model across various room layouts, and the second measured the efficiency of user interactions within the AR environment [3]. The results showed that the AI performed well in standard room layouts but struggled with irregular spaces, while the AR system was intuitive for simpler tasks but required refinement for more complex interactions. These findings provide insights for improving both the AI’s spatial reasoning and the AR gesture system, offering a strong foundation for future development and user-centered enhancements [4].

SD2: Synthetic Doppler Spectrum Denoiser using SSM
Authors: A. Manjunatha Koushik , Hsu Morris , Kumar Rohit
Published: November 2024

The increasing popularity of wireless sensing applications has led to a growing demand for large datasets of realistic wireless data. However, collecting such wireless data is often timeconsuming and expensive. To address this challenge, we propose a synthetic data generation pipeline using human mesh generated from videos that can generate data at scale. The pipeline first generates a 3D mesh of the human in the video and then determines the initial synthetic Doppler of the human motion. The initial synthetic Doppler will be noisy due to the uncertainties involved during the mesh generation. To address this, we employ a trained Structured State Space for Sequence Modeling (S4) model to denoise the initial synthetic Doppler to match the Doppler signature from the radar device. We validated our pipeline on synthetic Doppler data from four hand gesture videos and found that the final synthetic Doppler closely resembles the real Doppler, outperforming existing U-Net-based models by 36% or more. Also, with smaller set of denoised synthetic Doppler, the gesture classification model performance increased from 89.5% to 92.7%.

İslam Hukukunda ve Günümüz Türk Medeni Hukukunda Kadınların Miras Payları
Authors: Karayaka Hüseyin
Published: November 2024

İslam hukukunda ve günümüz Türk hukukunda kişinin miras yoluyla mal elde etmesi meşru kazanç yollarından biri olarak kabul edilmiştir. İnsanlık tarihi boyunca hukuk sistemlerinde mirasa dair düzenlemeler önemli bir yere sahip olmuştur. İslam miras hukukunun ilkeleri büyük oranda Kur’an ve sünnette ortaya konmuş ve miras hukuku, sahabe döneminden itibaren başlayarak mezheplerin teşekkül döneminde müstakil bir hukuk dalı olmuştur. Mirasla ilgili meseleler klasik fıkıh kitaplarının ilgili bölümlerinde ele alındığı gibi bu alanda ilk dönemden itibaren müstakil eserler de yazılmıştır. Çağımızda ise İslâm miras hukuku konularını modern hukuk ilminin sistem ve metoduyla, pratik ve anlaşılır tarzda ve modern hukukla karşılaştırmalı olarak ele alan eserler de yazılmıştır. İsviçre Medeni Kanun’u örnek alınarak hazırlanan ve 1926’da uygulanmaya başlanan Türk Medeni Kanunu, yeniden düzenlenerek 4721 sayılı kanun olarak 01 Ocak 2002’de yürürlüğe girmiştir. Günümüz Türk miras hukuku bu kanunda düzenlenmiş ve burada mirasçılar ve mirasın taksimine etki eden ölüme bağlı tasarruflar ele alınarak mirasın nasıl paylaştırılacağı ortaya konulmuştur. İslam miras hukukunu günümüz Türk miras hukuku ile mukayeseli olarak ele alan birçok çalışma bulunmaktadır. Ancak özellikle her iki sistemde kadınların miras paylarını karşılaştırmalı olarak konu edinen bir çalışmanın olmaması bizi bu konuyu incelemeye sevk etmiştir. Çalışmada her iki sistemin kendine has genel ilkelerinden, iki sistem arasındaki mirasçılık sistemlerindeki farklılıklardan ve genel olarak tüm varislerin hak ettikleri paylardan bahsedilmeyecektir. Bu çalışmada sadece her iki sistemde kadınların miras payları karşılaştırmalı olarak ele alıp incelenecektir. Çalışmada karşılaştırmalar İslam miras hukuku açısından üzerinde icma edilmiş görüşler merkeze alınarak, günümüz Türk hukukunda ise yeni TMK ve bu konudaki literatür dikkate alınarak yapılacaktır.

Published: November 2024

Smart tourism has become one of the most researched topics in recent years. There has been an increase in studies examining the main trends, bibliometric structures and networks, and social, intellectual, and conceptual frameworks of the concept of smart tourism within different parameters. The aim of this study is to evaluate bibliometric analysis studies on smart tourism indexed in WoS and Scopus databases by content analysis. In this context, 48 documents were found in the WoS and Scopus databases under the subject headings of "smart tourism" and "bibliometric analysis". This is the first study using content analysis to analyze bibliometric articles on smart tourism in WoS and Scopus databases. These analyses mainly focus on authors' analysis, articles' distribution according to publication years, country collaboration network, co-citation networks of authors and journals, frequency of keywords, and co-occurrence map analysis. Bibliometric analysis studies on smart tourism have gained momentum, especially after 2019, when most studies were conducted in the field. When the keywords of the studies in WoS are analyzed, it is determined that the most frequently repeated keyword is "bibliometrics" in 14 studies, followed by "smart destination" and "smart tourism destination" in 7 studies each, and "smart tourism" in 3 studies. These results show that most of the bibliometric studies in WoS focus on smart destinations.
Traditional and Complementary Medicine in Health Tourism: Cupping and Leech Therapy Case from Kayseri
Authors: Çeşmeci Nihat , Demirtepe Fadime
Published: November 2024

The primary objective of this research is to investigate the potential of traditional and complementary medicine (T&CM) practices, especially cupping and leech therapy, in the context of health tourism. The research aims to ascertain the extent of tourist mobility on national and international levels related to these two practices and identify potential future trends in this field. First, a literature review was undertaken to figure out the role of cupping and leech therapies in health tourism, which informed the development of the qualitative study research design. Subsequently, a semi-structured interview was employed to collect data from twelve health professionals, mostly working in T&CM units within hospitals in Kayseri. Findings obtained after content analysis, demonstrate a growing interest in cupping and leech therapy as T&CM practices in health tourism, particularly after the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the study noted that most health tourists coming to Kayseri for these therapies are expatriates or regional tourists rather than international tourists traveling specifically for these treatments. Based on findings, the study suggests that growth in this area depends on better promotion of these therapies which can also be seen as intangible cultural heritage. Additionally, the findings indicate that T&CM practices, including acupuncture, ozone therapy, homeopathy, and phytotherapy, could have significant potential to contribute to the future development of health tourism.

Authors: Jalon S  , Salahiron N.  , Deloria I
Published: November 2024

This study investigates the use of powdered peanut shells as a sustainable alternative in cement board production. With the growing emphasis on eco-friendly construction materials, exploring alternative resources is essential. Cement boards were fabricated incorporating powdered peanut shells at varying percentages (5%, 10%, and 15% by weight) relative to the total weight of the cement mixture. The preparation involved calculating the sample volume, adjusting the mixture weight to account for the peanut shells, and setting the water-cement ratio to 0.46. The process included grinding the peanut shells, measuring all components, and thoroughly mixing them before molding. The mixtures were cured in a controlled environment to promote proper setting.
The physical, mechanical, and thermal properties of the resulting boards were evaluated according to ASTM standards and analyzed using SPSS. Notably, the 5% mix achieved the highest density (1.60 g/cm³) and demonstrated excellent heat resistance, while the 15% mix exhibited the greatest thickness (1.24 cm) and lowest water absorption (10.99%). The 10% mix resulted in the highest compressive (11.28 MN/m²) and tensile strengths (0.24 N/cm²). The findings suggest that incorporating powdered peanut shells significantly improves the properties of cement boards, presenting a viable and sustainable construction option. Future studies should focus on optimizing these mixtures and assessing their long-term durability.

Authors: S. O. Ukwu  , C. E. Ebieto
Published: November 2024

In the transportation industry, fleet maintenance is essential for ensuring operational efficiency, reducing costs, and extending vehicle lifespan. As fleets age, maintenance challenges escalate, impacting profitability. This study focuses on developing a maintenance reliability program for the Rivers State Transport Company (RTC) to optimize fleet management and enhance financial performance. The aim of this study is to assess RTC’s maintenance activities and design a reliability-based program that minimizes costs and maximizes profits. A mixed-method survey research design was adopted, with secondary data collected from RTC’s maintenance workshop records and financial reports spanning from 2014 to 2023. The dataset includes maintenance costs, replacement costs, and income for three vehicle models (Nissan Urvan, Toyota Hiace, and Ford Transit) across multiple years. The Dynamic Recursive Programming Model was employed to analyze vehicle age, cost, and income trends, and Microsoft Excel was used for data processing. The results show a significant rise in maintenance costs as vehicles age. For example, the Nissan Urvan’s maintenance costs increased from ₦1.2 million in 2014 to ₦2.6 million in 2023, representing a 116.7% increase over 9 years. Replacement costs for the Toyota Hiace surged from ₦4 million in 2014 to ₦8.5 million in 2023. Income generated by older vehicles also declined by approximately 25%, with the Ford Transit generating ₦5.1 million in 2023 compared to ₦6.8 million in 2014 due to frequent breakdowns and reduced reliability. The analysis further revealed that replacing vehicles after 6-7 years of operation would maximize financial returns, based on the balance of maintenance and income. In conclusion, maintaining an aging fleet presents a substantial financial burden, with rising maintenance costs, diminishing income, and increasing replacement expenses. This study recommends that RTC adopt a structured vehicle replacement policy guided by the Dynamic Recursive Programming Model. Furthermore, reliability-based maintenance strategies should be implemented to reduce unnecessary expenses and improve the overall performance and profitability of the fleet.

Police-Perpetrated Domestic and Family Violence: A Scoping Review of Australian and International Scholarship
Authors: Anderson Briony , Farmer Clare , Tyson Danielle
Published: November 2024

The perpetration of domestic and family violence (DFV) by police officers is a serious abuse of power and has generated a growing body of scholarship in Australia and internationally. Police are uniquely positioned to draw on their expertise, training, and access to weapons to perpetrate DFV while often evading accountability and leaving victim-survivors with limited options to seek protection and redress. This paper sets out findings from a scoping review of 54 scholarly articles, chapters, theses, and other papers which address police-perpetrated DFV (PPDFV). The review generates insight into the methodological, theoretical, and critical implications of PPDFV scholarship across policing, criminology, psychology, sociology, and gender-based research. We identify gaps in jurisdictional coverage and understandings of the rates, prevalence, and nature of PPDFV. The importance of intersectional and critical research, which considers the impacts on PPDFV of gender, race, and sexuality, is also signposted.

In Indonesia in 2020 the ratio of state revenue from taxes fell by 1.5% from the previous year. So if fluctuations in tax revenue and an increase in state spending lead to a high budget deficit, and the government needs to find others sources of financing, such as loans to cover the financing shortfall. The type of research used is quantitative. The method used in this study is the Error Correction Model (ECM). The data used is secondary data published by the Ministry of Finance with the type of time series data in the year of observation, namely 2001-2023 in the State of Indonesia. Testing was carried out with the help of the Eviews 10 software application. The results of this study shows that only the state revenue variable has a significant effect on tax revenue in the long term and short term, while the state expenditure variable does not have a significant effect on tax revenue in the long term and in the short term.

Education is the process of imparting knowledge, character development, and producing a more harmonious social order and way of life, including through the development of students' intellectual capital, skills, and intellectual development. One of the innovations brought by the introduction of the 2013 curriculum is the integrative theme learning model. To provide meaningful educational experiences to students, integrative thematic learning connects various disciplines and materials through themes. The 2013 curriculum states that in order to place students as the center of the learning process, teachers must play an active role as facilitators and motivators of learning. This article aims to explain how the 2013 curriculum is applied to integrative thematic learning, and its impact on the teaching and learning process in elementary schools. The implementation of the curriculum in integrative thematic learning shows several challenges, such as difficulties in determining assessment or evaluation criteria for students, teachers' lack of understanding in compiling thematic integrative lesson plans, limited teaching aids, and the use of traditional learning methods that are less varied. The proposed solution is training and education for teachers, principals, and supervisors to acquire skills and knowledge in implementing the curriculum according to students' needs. By implementing a variety of learning methods, it is hoped that it can increase student motivation and independence in the learning process.

Published: November 2024

When it comes to communicating the underlying ideology to the intended audience, textbooks are regarded as an important means of communication. The ideologies that are transmitted through these books are made to be long-lasting through the utilization of a variety of linguistic and semiotic techniques. It is possible for ideologies that are spread through such covert means to leave an indelible mark on the minds of young students for a considerable amount of time. The current research will make use of primary English and Urdu textbooks published by the Punjab Textbook Board (PTB) to conduct an in-depth analysis of green discourses that have been selected for analysis. In the years 2022 and 2023, these books were released to the public. In order to conduct the analysis, linguistic and visual contents that are associated with environmentally friendly discourses will be chosen. When conducting the analysis of the data, the study will make use of a modified research model. For the purpose of conducting an analysis of the chosen data, the Eco-linguistic Discourse Analysis model developed by Stibbe (2015) and the Semiological Discourse Analysis (SDA) model developed by Barthes (1968) will be utilized. An attempt has been made by curriculum designers to raise awareness among young learners about eco-discourses by including environmentally friendly discourses in selected textbooks of PTB at the primary level. This will be revealed by the analysis of the data, which will reveal that this attempt has been made. Furthermore, it will emphasize that primary textbooks are the most effective medium for ideological investment and for molding the mindset of the target audience, which consists of young students who are considered to be the future of a nation, regarding the concept of going green through the incorporation of linguistic and semiotic discourses that are friendly to the environment.
