Ensuring the quality of higher education in Brazil presents a complex challenge, intensified by factors that directly affect students’ academic performance. The pervasive influence of social media and the overconsumption of superficial digital content undermine students’ ability to engage in deep comprehension, critical thinking, and the practical application of knowledge. Furthermore, inadequate preparation during the…

The integration of machine learning techniques in industrial production has the potential to revolutionize traditional manufacturing processes.

Polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent chemicals that accumulate in the body and environment. Although recent studies have indicated that PFAS may disrupt kidney function, the underlying mechanisms and overall effects on the organ remain unclear. Therefore, this study aims to elucidate the impact of PFAS on kidney health using machine learning techniques. Utilizing a dataset…

Mental stress assessment remains riddled with biases caused by subjective reports and individual differences across societal backgrounds. To objectively determine the presence or absence of mental stress, there is a need to move away from the traditional subjective methods of self-report questionnaires and interviews. Previously, it has been evidence that EEG Oscillations can discriminate mental…

Currently, the quality and quantity of product must be inspected before transporting. Currently the popular unsealing box product inspecting is performed by weighing the box where the errors occur according to the tolerance of the weighting machine and tolerance weight of the product. On the other hand, the quantity of product can be inspected automatically…

This paper extends the idea of creating a Quantum Machine Learning classifier and applying it to real weather data from the weather station behind the Pa Sak Jonlasit Dam.

This experiment compared the performance of five machine learning models across three different datasets and six performance indicators. Then…

Different colleges and universities have different approaches to dealing with low-performance learners. However, in most cases, analgesics do not deal with root problems. This research suggests a model of three layers of variables sequentially adaptable to a deep-root issue. The suggested model can identify early pupils who could be at risk because of inaccurate or…

Knowledge of pedestrian and vehicle movement patterns can provide valuable insights for city planning. Such knowledge can be acquired via passive outdoor localization of WiFi-enabled devices using measurements of Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) from WiFi probe requests. In this paper, which is an extension of the work initially presented in WiMob 2021, we continue…

Emotion is the most important component of being human, and very essential for everyday activities, such as the interaction between people, decision making, and learning. In order to adapt to the COVID-19 pandemic situation, most of the academic institutions relied on online video conferencing platforms to continue educational activities. Due to low bandwidth in many…

Electroencephalography (EEG) is one of the most common and benign methods for analyzing and identifying abnormalities in the human brain. EEG is an incessant measure of the activities of the human brain. In contrast, when the measurement of EEG is bounded by time and the EEG is synchronized to an exterior stimulus, is known as…

This paper builds on the realization that since mobile devices have become a common tool for researchers to collect, process, and analyze large quantities of data, we are now entering a generation where the creation of solutions to difficult real-world problems will mostly come in the form of mobile device apps. One such relevant real-life…

Applying black-box ML models in high-stakes fields like criminology, healthcare and real-time operating systems might create issues because of poor interpretability and complexity. Also, model building methods that include interpretability is now one of the growing research topics due to the absence of interpretability metrics that are both model-agnostic and quantitative. This paper introduces model…

With the development of Internet of Things technology and the widespread use of smart devices, artificial intelligence is now being applied as a decision-making tool in a variety of fields. To make machine learning models, including deep neural network models, more interpretable, various techniques have been proposed. In this paper, a method for explaining the…

Internet addiction (IA) has adverse effects on psychophysiological responses, interpersonal relationships, and academic and occupational performance. IA detection has received increasing attention. Although questionnaires enable long-term assessment (over 6 months) and physiological measurements to aid the short-term evaluation (over 2 min) of IA, the lack of algorithms results in an inability to detect IA in…

The Conv-TasNet and Demucs algorithms, can differentiate between two mixed signals, such as music and speech, the mixing operation proceed without any support information. The network of convolutional time-domain audio separations is used in Conv-TasNet algorithm, while there is a new waveform-to-waveform model in Demucs algorithm. The Demucs algorithm utilizes a procedure like the audio…
