Abstract
The rapid growth of natural language processing (NLP) applications, such as text summarization, speech recognition, information extraction, and machine translation, has led to the development of structured query language (SQL) for extracting information from structured data. However, due to limited resources, converting Natural Language (NL) queries to SQL in Bengali is challenging. This article proposes an unsupervised machine learning model to find semantically Bengali closed words that can generate SQL from NL queries in Bengali. The main objective of the proposed system is to provide support in the creation of patient-oriented explanations and educational resources by simplifying intricate medical terminology. The major findings of the proposed system are as follows: The use of machine translation in the field of medicine facilitates the dissemination of healthcare information to a diverse international audience and improves the performance of entity recognition tasks, including the identification of medical conditions, drugs, or procedures within clinical notes or electronic health data. This system allows a naive user to extract health-related information from a healthcare-structured database without any knowledge of SQL. The system accepts a query and generates a response according to the query in Bengali language. Query tokenization and stop word removal are carried out in the preprocessing stage, and unsupervised machine learning techniques are implemented to process the input query sentence. Tokenized words are converted into vectors using the skip-gram model, with noise-contrastive estimation (NCE) applied to discriminate between actual and irrelevant words. Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) optimizes the model by randomly choosing a small amount of data from the dataset and using cosine similarity to measure closer words. The semantically closer words are found using an unsupervised learning method to generate the SQL.

Abstract
Contemporary healthcare focuses on assessing the efficacy of dietary and exercise interventions in mitigating metabolic syndrome and its association with sleep apnea. Results demonstrate notable reductions in the HOMA Index and triglyceride levels among treated cohorts, indicating improved glycemic control and lipid profile. Additionally, intervention groups exhibit significant decreases in cholesterol levels, indicative of enhanced lipid profile. Marginal alterations in C-Reactive Protein imply limited impact on systemic inflammation, while consistent uric acid levels suggest potential autonomy from the interventions. Remarkable correlations between clinical parameters and sleep apnea risk underscore the pivotal role of lifestyle modifications in metabolic syndrome management, offering insights into underlying mechanisms.
The aim of this study is to further investigate the underlying mechanisms behind the observed improvements in metabolic parameters following dietary and exercise interventions, with a specific focus on elucidating the relationship between these interventions and the risk of sleep apnea in individuals with metabolic syndrome. These findings elucidate the intricate interplay between metabolic risk factors and sleep apnea susceptibility, thereby informing therapeutic and preventive approaches for individuals with metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
In recent decades, chronic viral infection C (HCV) has posed a major public health challenge globally, considering the morbidity and mortality associated with this condition, as well as the difficulties related to diagnosis and treatment. Recently, significant advances in medical and pharmaceutical research have led to the development of new direct-acting antiviral therapies (DAAs), marking the beginning of a new era in HCV treatment. These treatments promise cure rates of over 90%, an improved safety profile, and a reduced duration of therapy compared to previous interferon-based regimens. This article aims to examine the evolution of HCV treatment, with a special focus on recent innovations in antiviral therapy. We will analyze the mechanisms of action of DAAs, their efficacy and safety, and their impact on populations with limited access to treatment. Additionally, we discuss the remaining challenges in the path to HCV eradication, including late diagnosis, barriers to treatment access, and the need for long-term monitoring of cured patients. By consolidating data from recent clinical studies and reviewing the specialized literature, this article provides a comprehensive perspective on the current landscape of HCV treatment, highlighting significant progress made and underlining the future directions needed to address remaining challenges. Finally, we reaffirm the importance of an integrated approach, encompassing prevention, early diagnosis, and universal access to innovative treatments, as a cornerstone in the fight against HCV.

Abstract
The Eurasian Spoonbill (Platalea leucorodia) is a migratory waterbird. We used the confirmed observations of colour-ringed individuals (2,735 specimens) of the Hungarian population collected outside the Carpathian Basin between May 2003 and February 2023. 546 Spoonbills occurred in 28 countries. They used mainly the Central Mediterranean Flyway, however, some individuals were seen along the East Atlantic Flyway or the East Mediterranean Flyway. Three individuals were observed north of the Alps, too. A small proportion of Spoonbills crossed the Sahara and they occurred in the Sahel zone, between Sudan in the east and Senegal and Mauritania in the west. A few individuals were observed on Saharan wetlands in Algeria during winter. The most important destination for the Hungarian (Pannonian) population during the migration is Tunisia, where many of them spend the winter, primarily in the tidal area of the Gulf of Gabes. The first adults reached North Africa (Tunisia) on 28 July during their southward migration, while the last ones stayed there until 23 April. The first observation of juveniles in North Africa (Tunisia) happened on 31 August. Immature, 2- and 3-cyold birds spend the summer in unknown numbers in Tunisia. The majority of Pannonian Spoonbills migrate through the Balkans and Italy and some stay there to winter, mainly in Italy. Some of the immatures spent the summer in Italy. In southern Europe, the peak of the spring migration was in March, and the peak of the autumn migration was in September. There was also a difference in the migration of different age groups: in Southern Europe, the migration peak of adult birds falls between March and April, while most of the immatures were observed in May and June during northward migration. The peak of the southward migration in all age groups was observed in September. In the southern part of Europe, there may still be adults migrating north on 13 May, while other adults may already migrate southward on 15 May. The earliest juvenile migrating south was documented on 30 June in Italy.

Published: June 2024

Abstract
The endemic Algerian Nuthatch Sitta ledanti, is classified as an endangered species by the IUCN and protected species by Algerian law. Available information on its nesting and breeding biology is sporadic and incomplete, the purpose of which is to provide additional data on the different aspects of multi-site nesting of the species. 22 nests are monitored across five forests, during the nesting season of 2021. An endoscopic camera was used to monitor eggs and nestlings in the nests during the whole study. Most of the nests (n = 20) were constructed in different parts of the dead trees such as trunks or branches of the Atlas cedar Cedrus atlantica, the Algerian oak Quercus canariensis, the African oak Quercus afares or Cork oak Quercus suber. The laying dates were from early April to the end of May when April 28 (± 13 days) is the laying season’s median start date. The average clutch size was 4.6 (n = 21). The mean hatching success was 89.2%, while mean fledging success was 88.2%. The nestling sex ratio was 14 males versus 18 females. Data on clutch dates and fecundity of breeding pairs should be considered in any conservation approach and strategy in the context of habitat management and preservation.

Abstract
The diet of the Atlas Flycatcher, an endemic bird species of North Africa is studied in Northeastern Algeria in the forest of Guerrouch in the Taza National Park. The diet analysis was based on the examination of the faecal sacs of the nestlings (n=150) collected in nest boxes installed in a mixed formation of Algerian oak and African oak (Quercus canariensis and Quercus afares). A total of 854 food items were identified, representing 49 prey taxa. The analysis of centesimal frequencies by class revealed the clear dominance of Insecta with 85.12%, followed by Arachnida 13.34%, Gastropoda 1.28% and Malacostraca 0.23%. Regarding orders, the diet was constituted mainly of Coleoptera 44.37%, followed by Hemiptera 21.89% and Araneae 13.34%. The size of the prey taxa varied between 3 and 14 mm with an average of 7.11±3.14 mm. The best represented size class was that which varies between 3 and 4.37 mm. To test the homogeneity between the 4 nest boxes sampled, an ANOVA test was applied. The results show the presence of 2 distinct groups of nesting boxes concerning the variable number of families / faecal sacs.

ABSTRACT
This paper explores strategies for extending the operational lifespan of flame tubes in turbofan engines – a critical component for maintaining engine efficiency and reliability, in line with global trends aimed at maximizing the use of laid reserves of aircraft engine performance. Utilizing a combination of advanced computational simulations and empirical research, the study meticulously analyzes the internal processes within the flame tube of the AL-31F turbofan engine. A detailed geometric model and finite element grid were created and adapted to simulate various operating conditions and assess their impact on the flame tube’s performance. Special attention is given to understanding the thermal and mechanical stresses that influence its durability and serviceability. The results, compared against experimental data, validate the simulations and are crucial for identifying critical sections prone to damage, thereby facilitating enhanced decision-making regarding maintenance schedules and overhaul practices. This approach not only aims to minimize downtime and reduce maintenance costs but also extends the service intervals for critical engine components, thereby improving thermocyclic durability based on the damage mechanisms identified.

Published: June 2024

ABSTRACT
This paper addresses the persistent challenges in speech processing within the Air Traffic Control (ATC) domain, a field where despite extensive research, issues such as handling noisy environments, accented speech, and the need for strict adherence to standard phraseology continue to undermine conventional language models. Our study employs a hybrid approach that integrates syntactic analysis with advanced machine learning classification algorithms – Logistic Regression, Lagrangian Support Vector Machine, and Naïve Bayes. By mixing and matching algorithms tailored for specific aspects of speech processing, our approach moves away from traditional reliance on a singular integrated system, illustrating through rigorous testing with the ATCOSIM dataset that such a multifaceted strategy markedly improves command recognition accuracy and adapts more effectively to the unique linguistic features of ATC speech. Results highlight the superior performance of Logistic Regression across various command recognition categories, pointing towards a promising direction for future advancements in ATC speech recognition technologies aimed at reducing human workload and increasing automation precision. This paper explores the complexities of the required analysis techniques and underscores the necessity of employing diverse algorithms in the processing pipeline to enhance overall system accuracy.

Published: June 2024

Objective: The objective of this study is to assess the relationship between instrumental leadership, workplace motivation and employee-sustaining values.

Conceptual and Theoretical Framework: Theoretical and empirical evidence was used to formulate a study model that involved instrumental leadership (independent variable), workplace motivation (mediating variable) and employee sustaining values (dependent variable). The independent variable comprises strategic skill and support skill, while the dependent variable comprises task competence and skill development. Several theories were related in this study, such as Leader-Member Exchange Theory, Path-Goal Theory and Social Cognitive Theory.

Method: In this study, cross-sectional methods were employed. The study involved employees in management services groups and professionals from different organizational units. In the data collection process, a total of 345 questionnaires were distributed among the service groups using purposive sampling techniques. Out of the total number of questionnaires that were distributed, only 280 (81.15%) forms that were answered completely were returned to the researcher. All these respondents answered this questionnaire voluntarily and without coercion.

Results and Discussion: This study employed convergent validity analysis, discriminant validity, cross loading and structural model. This study confirms that workplace motivation can function as a significant mediating variable in the relationship between instrumental leadership and employees’ sustaining values. In the context of the study, most respondents felt that the level of instrumental leadership and employees’ sustaining values was high. This situation shows that the leader’s ability to actively involve himself in the organization’s strategic, positive discussions, show high communication skills and set goals will be able to increase workplace motivation in the organization being studied.

Research Implications: Workplace motivation can function as a significant mediating variable in the relationship between instrumental leadership and employees’ sustaining values.

Originality/Value: This study contributes to the literature by adopting several theories such as Social Cognitive Theory and other related theories. It also contributes to the new findings on the IPMA analysis between the instrumental leadership and motivation.
