Authors: Kurdthongmee Wattanapong 
Published: November 2023

Accurate pith estimation is crucial for maintaining the quality of wood products. This study delves into deep learning techniques for precise Parawood pith estimation, employing popular convolutional neural networks (ResNet50, MobileNet, and Xception) with adapted regression heads. Through variations in regression functions, optimizers, and training epochs, the most effective models were pinpointed. Xception, coupled with Huber Loss regression, Nadam optimizer, and 200 epochs, showcased superior performance, achieving a 4.48 mm mean error (with a standard deviation of 3.69 mm) in Parawood. Notably, benchmarking on the Douglas Fir dataset yielded similar results (2.81 mm mean error, standard deviation: 1.57 mm). These findings underscore deep learning's potential for Parawood and Douglas Fir pith estimation, offering substantial benefits to wood industry quality control and production efficiency. By harnessing advanced machine learning techniques, this study advances wood industry processes, promoting the adoption of state-of-the-art technology in forestry and wood science.

Big data collection involves enormous amounts of raw data. To boost the sustainability of corporate value and support business intelligence and decision-making systems, in-depth data analysis is necessary. The data storage, analysis, and visualization methods, as well as the discovery of patterns and linkages, all depend on extensive data analysis. This study aims to process datasets to learn things like how ratings impact market sales transactions and how much of an impact factor connected to consumers and items have on ratings. Elasticsearch and Kibana were used for the dataset processing. This study evaluated traits related to the test parameters using a variety of test procedures. The product is scored as a representation of the product types involved in the sales transaction, and the name is assessed as a reflection of the customer. Kibana and Elasticsearch, a full-text search engine, were used in this work to do extensive data analysis on data sets. It is a visualization tool that is employed in a controlled environment to evaluate how ratings impact market exchanges for electronic goods, and it offers suggestions. The study found a substantial relationship between electronic product sales on the Amazon marketplace from 2012 to 2018. It suggested the importance of buyer constituents as users and how different product categories relate to ratings in business transactions. Doi: 10.28991/HIJ-2023-04-03-09 Full Text: PDF

Published: November 2023

The elderly is the final stage of the life cycle, and degenerative processes occur in various aspects, which result in a greater risk of exposure to diseases such as hypertension which is usually often found in the elderly. Women are closely related to the occurrence of hypertension when experiencing menopause. Menopausal women experience decreased estrogen, which protects blood vessels from damage. One of the things that can be done to keep blood pressure stable is to use Benson relaxation, which is the development of a relaxation response method involving the belief factor to achieve optimal health conditions. The number of elderly who participated in this training was 17 people. Before the training and presentation of the material, data was obtained that 3 elderly people knew the benefits of Benson relaxation, and 14 people did not know about it. After the training, it was found that 10 elderly people understood Benson relaxation, and 7 other people did not understand this, which means that there was an increase in the understanding of the elderly about the benefits of Benson relaxation in hypertension.

Authors: Sari Retma 
Published: November 2023

Errors and mistakes in foreign language use is the reflection of learners’ language learning process. Learners can profit from their errors if appropriate feedback is provided after errors or mistakes have committed by learners. Even in modern times errors have not been tolerated in language classrooms and seen as a deficiency in language use. However, according to important scholars errors present a view which is related with learners’ discovery of a foreign language. Within the light of this perspective the current research aimed to analyze the grammatical problem and overcome the problem with writing journal. Besides, this study investigated grammatical problems and its solution, the participants were third years students of English department.
They The researcher proposes, in this paper, the action research with a quasi quantitative and qualitative design, to provide some important insights into the use of journal writing as a means to improve grammatical accuracy with no prior exposure to journal writing in English. The data on the undergraduates’ grammatical accuracy will be analyzed through their journal entries covering both dialogue-journaling and process-writing entries, while their opinions of journal entries and grammatical accuracy were obtained through their dialogue journaling entries and interview responses. Findings are discussed, and recommendations for future research are made. It is also hoped that journal writing can be another useful learning activity and a teaching alternative to enhance EFL undergraduates’ grammatical accuracy.

Published: November 2023

Manusia hidup tak lepas dari konflik, karena setiap orang memiliki cara hidup yang khas, dan dapat dipastikan konflik seusia dengan peradaban manusia. Konflik dapat diartikan sebagai hubungan antara dua pihak/lebih (individu/kelompok) yang memiliki atau merasa memiliki sasaran, kepentingan dan kebutuhan yang tidak sejalan. Hubungan bertetangga antara kawasan industri dan pemukiman penduduk dapat saling menguntungkan juga sebaliknya dapat saling merugikan. Dinamika konflik yang dimaksud adalah perubahan bentuk konflik yang terjadi, walaupun akar dari konflik-konflik tersebut cenderung sama. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat bagaimana dinamika bentuk konflik yang terjadi dan faktor penyertanya serta penyebab dibalik konflik tersebut. Teori transformasi konflik Simon Fisher berasumsi bahwa, konflik disebabkan oleh masalah-masalah ketidaksetaraan dan ketidakadilan yang muncul sebagai masalah-masalah sosial, budaya dan ekonomi. Akar dari konflik tersebut adalah kesenjangan dan kecemburuan sosial yang terjadi antara kedua belah pihak. Untuk mengelola konflik tersebut adalah dengan mewujudkan komunikasi yang baik dan mengatasi kesenjangan dan kecemburuan sosial yang terjadi.

rganiation culture of higher education institutions is present in leadership, administration and management of the institution and is inu- enced by external social and environmental factors. The culture also is closely linked to the goals, values, and mission of the organization and the criteria by which to measure organization success. The purpose of the article is to analyze how an International Black Sea University is effectively trying to implement dominant culture within various nationalities and functional groups, such as, students, lecturers and admin- istrator groups. he article sees to answer the following uestions: hat is the policy and strategy of the multicultural niersity in creating its dominant culture? How is the culture managed and maintained? Which groups participate in creation process of the organization culture in the course of time? The research focuses on a study of a single phenomenon, as it explores the culture of one particular university. An ethnographic approach has been chosen for the present qualitative study which basically relies on qualitative methods including a long-term observation and interviews. The article deals with the many aspects of University culture management, studies some factors, and mainly the organization’s vision, that help the staff turn into a single unit. S, lie other multi-national organiations, eperiences difficulties in establishing coordinated initiaties in culture management. The university has to meet the expectations of the different groups and subgroups of its clients, such as, students, profes- sors, executives, government, and society. Each of these segments requires a particular management to persuade and stimulate them to share the University’s dominant culture. Universities are directly and heavily affected by political and socio-economic changes in the region. .The core alues S culture is based on are: euity, integrity, euality, tolerance, peaceful co-eistence, respect and appreciation etended to representatives of minorities, strong leadership, struggle for change and innovations to achieve high quality in education. In the era of globali- zation the main goal of each international university should be a development of individual cultural model which will distinguish it from others..
