Customer acceptance of digital banking in Islamic bank: Study on millennial generation

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Different factors may be influencing the use of information and communication technology. One of the important factors is age. A well-known age-based categorization, commonly used especially in the field of economics, the Millennial Generation has some typical behaviours which are different from the older people. This study investigates the extent to which perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use influences the attitude toward product and behavioural intention towards digital banking adoption of the Millennial Generation. An exploratory research design was followed and the data was collected from Millennial Generation Islamic bank customers between the ages of 22 and 38 in Indonesia. A total of 315 useable questionnaires was collected for analysis. The analysis of the data focused on determining attitude and behaviour in the use of digital banking. The methods of model and relationship test like Structural Equation Modelling AMOS were used. Reliability was tested by conducting the Cronbach alpha coefficient analysis. The construct validity was determined by using confirmatory factor analysis. The empirical evidence show that all the variables have significant positive effect. This study will show about why the Islamic banks must boosting the digital banking to increase the millennial generation customers.
Risk Factors for Progression of Keratoconus and Failure Rate After Corneal Cross-linking

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

PURPOSE: To assess the occurrence of risk factors for progression of keratoconus and failure rate after corneal cross-linking (CXL) in patients with progressive keratoconus. METHODS: This retrospective study observed 230 eyes of 173 patients with a minimum follow-up of 36 months after CXL. A total of 185 eyes underwent CXL once (80%) (control) and 45 (20%) underwent this treatment more than once (Re-CXL-group). Subgroup analysis included standard CXL with the Dresden protocol (S-CXL group, n = 120) and accelerated CXL with a reduced radiation time of 10 minutes and a higher radiation power of 9 mW/cm 2 (A-CXL group, n = 110). Risk factors of interest were age, maximum keratometry (Kmax), minimum corneal thickness (MCT), sex, and atopy (including allergic bronchial asthma, food allergy, allergic rhinitis, and neurodermatitis). RESULTS: Follow-up for the control group was 76.0 ± 33.2 months. Re-CXL was performed after 46.2 ± 34.1 months overall and after 62.6 ± 41.9 months in the S-CXL subgroup and 29.2 ± 19.2 months in the A-CXL subgroup ( P = .02). Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed a cumulative prediction rate of success after CXL of 92.5% (S-CXL) and 86.4% (A-CXL) after 36 months ( P = .103). A high preoperative Kmax value (odds ratio = 1.056, P = .003 and odds ratio = 1.067, P = .028) in both subgroups and the presence of neurodermatitis combined with other atopic diseases in the A-CXL group (odds ratio = 11.662, P = .003) were significant risk factors for new progression of keratoconus after CXL. CONCLUSIONS: Risk factors for progression of keratoconus after CXL are both high preoperative Kmax values and the presence of neurodermatitis combined with other atopic diseases. Patients with severe atopy should receive the S-CXL procedure. [ J Refract Surg . 2021;37(12):816–823.]
A grammatical description of Golpa: a dying Yolnu language

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This thesis is the first detailed description of Golpa, a seriously endangered Yolŋu language that is still proudly spoken by very few people on Elcho Island, in the north eastern corner of Arnhem Land, Northern Territory, Australia. Only one the remaining speakers is still fluent. \nYolŋu languages belong to the Pama-Nyungan language family. Within the Yolŋu language bloc Golpa is counted among the Nhaŋu language varieties which have received the leat linguistic attention. Nhaŋu used to be spoken by a number of clans all along the Wessel Islands. The Golpa clan is the only one left from these Nhaŋu speaking Wessel clans. Other Nhaŋu varieties are spoken westwards towards Milingimbi and Maningrida. However, they differ from Golpa (and presumably also from the other already extinct and not documented Wessel Island Nhaŋu varieties) in regard to their lexical and grammatical inventory. The grammatical description is based on the analysis of the morphological and syntactic constructions exhibited in the created text corpus and on data obtained in the course of elicitation. Some data was collected by observing actual conversations in Golpa. The description mainly rests upon data obtained from two fluent speakers and two semi-speakers. Therefore, this grammatical account differs from descriptions based on data from many speakers in a lively speech community. \tLike other Yolŋu languages, Golpa is typologically agglutinative, synthetic and predominantly dependent marking, showing no required order for S, A, V or O. Yolŋu languages mainly differ from each other in regard to their verbal systems. This is also the case when comparing Golpa with other Yolŋu varieties. However, unlike all other languages in that region, Golpa does not have any auxiliaries. Also, there are some distinct grammatical phenomena which appear to be related, at least to some degree, to the infrequent use of the language and the obsolescence process. It is remarkable that despite the very small number of (semi-)speakers and the limited use of the language over the past decades, Golpa still is a fully functional language with no pathological signs. It still shows a great amount of complexity and a large number of categories.
Calcium Phosphate Coatings with Controlled Micro/Nano-Structures for Endothelial Cells Viability

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Hydroxyapatite (HA) scaffolds produced by the accumulation of HA fibers were separately treated hydrothermally in three calcium phosphate solutions to form coatings of different micro/nano-structures. Different micro/nano-structure and morphologies have been regulated on the surface of treated HA scaffolds. Plate-like compromise flower-like morphology was obtained with solution 1 (Ca-sufficient) i.e., ratio: Ca/Ca=1%; Ca/P=1.67. Full coatings (flower-like) morphology treated after Cu-doped coating solution 2 (Cu/(Cu+Ca) = 5%; ratio: (Cu+Ca)/P = 1.67). Furthermore, partial coatings (flower-like) morphology fabricated with solution 3 (Ca-deficient and Cu-replacement), i.e., ratio: Ca/Ca=0.95%; Ca/P=1.58. The results showed the effect of hydrothermal coatings on HA scaffolds. Cultured human endothelial cells spread and proliferated better on the treated HA scaffolds than on the uncoated scaffolds, suggesting a potential effect of calcium phosphate surface morphology on endothelial cell response. Thus, it can provide an appropriate micro/nano-structure approach supporting angiogenesis capacity, which is a necessity to accelerate the time of bone healing and regeneration.
Exploring the Frontiers of Communication With Extended Reality (XR)

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Extended Reality (XR) is changing how we interact with digital information and communicate with each other by transforming how people experience and interact with their surroundings. It can be used to create immersive experiences like virtual tours or to promote companies, products, and brands. Although the industry and scientific community have improved recently, XR must overcome some issues to be fully deployed and understood in multiple areas. For example, it is essential to understand user experience guidelines to create realistic XR applications. Also, those applications require a lot of processing power, which can result in performance issues. Furthermore, integrating artificial intelligence opens a world of possibilities, presenting new research trends to explore. This chapter examines the definition of XR to demonstrate what it is possible to do with it, the emerging challenges, and how XR technologies can be applied to the communication field.

The Impact of Digital Tools on the Economic Empowerment of Rural Women

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

This chapter examines the transformative impact of digital tools on the economic empowerment of rural women, highlighting how mobile phones, internet access, and digital financial services enhance women's access to vital resources, including information, markets, and financial services. Mobile technology, particularly mobile banking and money services, has enabled secure transactions, empowering women to save, borrow, and invest independently. Access to digital tools also bridges the knowledge gap between rural and urban areas by providing women with critical information on market trends, agricultural practices, and more, which supports informed decision making and productivity. Furthermore, digital platforms facilitate ongoing skill development and networking, allowing rural women to engage in collaborative communities. Despite these advancements, challenges such as limited digital literacy, infrastructure, and cultural barriers persist requiring targeted policy interventions to foster inclusive digital empowerment.

A CBR-Inspired Approach to Rapid and Reliable Adaption of Video Game AI

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Abstract. Current approaches to adaptive game AI typically require numerous trials to learn effective behaviour (i.e., game adaptation is not rapid). In addition, game developers are concerned that applying adaptive game AI may result in uncontrollable and unpredictable behaviour (i.e., game adaptation is not reliable). These characteristics hamper the incorporation of adaptive game AI in commercially available video games. In this article, we discuss an alternative to these approaches. In the case-based inspired approach, domain knowledge required to adapt to game circumstances is gathered automatically by the game AI, and is exploited immediately (i.e., without trials and without resource intensive learning) to evoke effective behaviour in a controlled manner in online play. We performed experiments that test case-based adaptive game AI on three different maps in a commercial RTS game. From our results we may conclude that case-based adaptive game AI provides a strong basis for effectively adapting game AI in video games. 1
The relationship between family caregivers’ emotional states and ability to empathize with post-stroke individuals

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Stroke is one of the most prevalent chronic illnesses in Canada. Family caregivers can make a significant contribution toward patients’ recovery. Caregivers’ emotions can impact their motivation to engage in empathy-related helping behaviours. The purpose of this study was to examine relationships among functional deficits of post-stroke individuals, family caregivers’ emotions, and caregivers’ ability to empathize with post-stroke individuals. As guided by Davis’s organizational model on empathy, a correlational descriptive methodology was employed. Participants were requested to complete four questionnaires. Study found that caregiver fatigue was the only factor associated with caregiver empathy-related behaviour. Analyses also found that communication deficits had a linkage with caregivers’ negative emotions. Study results will contribute to the current state of the literature on post-stroke care at home by understanding of the impact of caregivers’ psychological experiences on their empathy-related responses toward post-stroke individuals. Recommendations for clinical practice and future research were made based on this study’s results.
Mapping Anti-Asian Xenophobia: State-Level Variation in Implicit and Explicit Bias against Asian Americans across the United States

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Using national data from Project Implicit, the authors examine state-level variations in implicit and explicit bias against Asian Americans held by non–Asian Americans ( n = 196,678) from 2018 to 2022. The authors also explore state-level sociodemographic correlates of both types of bias. The findings reveal considerable heterogeneity in implicit and explicit bias across states. Moreover, Republican and swing states had higher levels of implicit bias against Asian Americans, and states with older median ages and greater percentages of Asian populations were associated with less explicit bias. This study underscores the importance of state-level variation in and structural factors of biases against Asian Americans as contexts for examining attitudes toward Asian Americans.

Cost modelling of metal laser powder-bed systems

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Additive manufacturing (AM) has been dubbed as the ‘third industrial revolution’ of this age, due to its huge potential in altering the dynamics of the manufacturing market. In particular, this report has chosen to focus on metal AM, because it has shownimmense capabilities to manufacture complex components to high standards for demanding applications in the aerospace and medical sectors. More importantly, AM has brought about distinct advantages, such as supply chain process simplification and its versatile ability to manufacture parts without restriction from conventional design rules. However, widespread adoption of AM has been hindered due to huge costs and a lack of robust cost models to gain visibility into the economics of AM when compared with traditional manufacturing methods. Building on my predecessors’ work, this report aims to address this knowledge gap, through creation of a macro-level broad business framework integrated with microlevel cost models through understanding the needs of the manufacturing industry. The traditional manufacturing method which will be focused on will be machining, since they are most significantly challenging AM’s viability for mass manufacturing. Case studies of various parts will be used to illustrate and validate the process flow and cost models, providing reasonably accurate cost estimates with cost comparisons between AM and machining. The end goal of this project is to equip clients of the Advanced Remanufacturing and Technology Centre (ARTC) with this framework, for them to determine which manufacturing method is the most cost- and time-efficient to manufacture a part.
A Deep Learning Based Approach for Localization and Recognition of Pakistani Vehicle License Plates

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

License plate localization is the process of finding the license plate area and drawing a bounding box around it, while recognition is the process of identifying the text within the bounding box. The current state-of-the-art license plate localization and recognition approaches require license plates of standard size, style, fonts, and colors. Unfortunately, in Pakistan, license plates are non-standard and vary in terms of the characteristics mentioned above. This paper presents a deep-learning-based approach to localize and recognize Pakistani license plates with non-uniform and non-standardized sizes, fonts, and styles. We developed a new Pakistani license plate dataset (PLPD) to train and evaluate the proposed model. We conducted extensive experiments to compare the accuracy of the proposed approach with existing techniques. The results show that the proposed method outperformed the other methods to localize and recognize non-standard license plates.
Effect of Sulfate on Rhenium Partitioning during Melting of Low-Activity Waste Glass Feeds

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The volatile loss of technetium-99 (99Tc) is a major concern of the low-activity waste (LAW) vitrification at Hanford. We investigated the incorporation and volatile loss of Re (a nonradioactive surrogate for 99Tc) during batch-to-glass conversion up to 1100°C. The AN-102 feed, which is one of the representative Hanford LAW feeds, containing 0.59 wt% of SO3 (in glass if 100% retained) was used. The modified sulfate-free AN-102_0S feed was also tested to investigate the effect of sulfate on Re partitioning and retention during melting. After heating of the dried melter feed (mixture of LAW simulant and glass forming/modifying additives) to different temperatures, the heat-treated samples were quenched. For each heat-treated sample, the salts (soluble components in room temperature leaching), early glass forming melt (soluble components in 80°C leaching), and insoluble solids were separated by a two-step leaching and the chemical compositions of each phase were quantitatively analyzed. The final retention ratio of AN-102 and AN-102_0S in glass (insoluble solids) are 32% and 63% respectively. The presence of sulfate in the salt phase between 600 and 800°C leads to a significantly higher Re loss via volatilization from the salt layer. At ≥800°C, for both samples, there is no more incorporation of Remore » into the insoluble phase because: for AN-102_0S there is no salt left i.e., the split into the insoluble and gas phases is complete by 800°C and for AN-102 all the Re contained in the remaining salt phase is lost through volatilization. The present results on the effect of sulfate, although not directly applicable to LAW vitrification in the melter, will be used to understand the mechanism of Re incorporation into glass to eventually develop the methods that can increase the 99Tc retention during LAW vitrification at Hanford.« less
