Abstract With the increasing growth of online news, fake electronic news detection has become one of the most important paradigms of modern research. Traditional electronic news detection techniques are generally based on contextual understanding, sequential dependencies, and/or data imbalance. This makes distinction between genuine and fabricated news a challenging task. To address this problem, we propose a novel hybrid architecture, T5-SA-LSTM, which synergistically integrates the T5 Transformer for semantically rich contextual embedding with the Self-Attention-enhanced (SA) Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). The LSTM is trained using the Adam optimizer, which provides faster and more stable convergence compared… More >

Abstract Objectives: The evidence remains insufficient and controversial for evaluating modifiable parameters—such as vitamin D, calcium, ferritin, and uric acid—as preclinical biomarkers to contribute to the prevention and early diagnosis of prostate cancer, a disease with a prevalence of up to 10%–20% in men over 50 and strongly associated with environmental factors including diet (high in fat and red meat), obesity, physical inactivity, and carcinogen exposure. This study aims to investigate the potential biomarker role of vitamin D, calcium, ferritin, and uric acids in reducing the risk of prostate cancer (PCa). Methods: The case-control design was… More >

Abstract Smoking is harmful to the lungs and has numerous effects on our bodies. This leads to decreased lung function, which increases the lungs’ susceptibility to asthma triggers. In this paper, we develop a new fractional-order model and investigate the impact of smoking on the progression of asthma by using the Caputo operator to analyze different factors. Using the Banach contraction principle, the existence and uniqueness of solutions are established, and the positivity and boundedness of the model are proved. The model further incorporates different stages of smoking to account for incubation periods and other latent… More >

Abstract The objective of this work is to investigate the dynamics of a self-propelled undulating sheet in a non-Newtonian electrolyte solution inside a wavy channel under the electroosmotic effect. The electrolyte solution, which is non-Newtonian, is modeled as a Carreau-Yasuda fluid. The flow generated by a combination of an undulating sheet and electroosmotic effect is obtained by solving the continuity and momentum equations. The electroosmotic body force term is derived using the Poisson-Boltzmann equation for the electric potential. A fourth-order ordinary differential equation for the stream function is solved under the Stokes flow regime. The dynamics More >

Abstract The configuration of a hybrid energy storage system (HESS) plays a pivotal role in mitigating wind power fluctuations and enabling primary frequency regulation, thereby enhancing the active power support capability of wind power integration systems. However, most existing studies on HESS capacity configuration overlook the self-recovery control of the state of charge (SOC), creating challenges in sustaining capacity during long-term operation. This omission can impair frequency regulation performance, increase capacity requirements, and shorten battery lifespan. To address these challenges, this study proposes a bi-level planning–operation capacity configuration model that explicitly incorporates SOC self-recovery control. In… More >

Abstract Hemoglobin is a vital protein in red blood cells responsible for transporting oxygen throughout the body. Its accurate measurement is crucial for diagnosing and managing conditions such as anemia and diabetes, where abnormal hemoglobin levels can indicate significant health issues. Traditional methods for hemoglobin measurement are invasive, causing pain, risk of infection, and are less convenient for frequent monitoring. PPG is a transformative technology in wearable healthcare for noninvasive monitoring and widely explored for blood pressure, sleep, blood glucose, and stress analysis. In this work, we propose a hemoglobin estimation method using an adaptive lightweight… More >

Abstract Due to its tolerance to water deficit and salinity, sorghum is considered a suitable crop for cultivation in regions affected by these stress conditions, enabling the efficient use of limited water resources. This study evaluated the resilience of the sweet sorghum cultivar BRS 506 under water deficit and salinity stress, focusing on water relations and yield performance in semiarid conditions. A randomized complete block design was employed in a 3 × 3 factorial arrangement with four replicates. Treatments consisted of three levels of irrigation water salinity (1.50, 3.75, and 6.00 dS m⁻¹) and three irrigation levels… More >

Abstract High dropout rates in short-term job skills training programs hinder workforce development. This study applies machine learning to predict program completion while addressing class imbalance challenges. A dataset of 6548 records with 24 demographic, educational, program-specific, and employment-related features was analyzed. Data preprocessing involved cleaning, encoding categorical variables, and balancing the dataset using the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE), as only 15.9% of participants were dropouts. six machine learning models—Logistic Regression, Random Forest, Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbors, Naïve Bayes, and XGBoost—were evaluated on both balanced and unbalanced datasets using an 80-20 train-test split.

Abstract Atrium spaces, common in modern construction, provide significant fire safety challenges due to their large vertical openings, which facilitate rapid smoke spread and reduce sprinkler effectiveness. Traditional smoke management systems primarily rely on make-up air to replace the air expelled through vents. Inadequate calibration, particularly with air velocity, can worsen fire conditions by enhancing oxygen supply, increasing soot production, and reducing visibility, so endangering safe evacuation. This study investigates the impact of make-up air velocity on smoke behaviour in atrium environments through 24 simulations performed using the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS). Scenarios include various fire… More >

Abstract In rapid urban development, outdoor parking lots have become essential components of urban transportation systems. However, the increasing number of parking lots is accompanied by a rising risk of vehicle fires, posing a serious challenge to public safety. As a result, there is a critical need for fire warning systems tailored to outdoor parking lots. Traditional smoke detection methods, however, struggle with the complex outdoor environment, where smoke characteristics often blend into the background, resulting in low detection efficiency and accuracy. To address these issues, this paper introduces a novel model named Dynamic Contextual Transformer… More >
