Suspended atmospheric particulates like haze, mist, and fog greatly degrade captured images, creating considerable challenges for computer vision applications operating in safety-sensitive areas such as autonomous driving, surveillance, and remote sensing. In this paper, we treat the important challenge of single-image haze removal by proposing a novel and robust conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN)-based framework. The proposal utilizes a U-Net-based generator with self-attention and skip connections to preserve spatial fidelity, and a PatchGAN discriminator to enforce local realism. At the heart of our contribution is a carefully weighted multi-component loss function that applies reconstruction, perceptual, edge, structural similarity (SSIM), and adversarial losses to optimize pixel-level accuracy and perceptual quality. We trained and evaluated our proposal on the large-scale real-world LMHaze dataset. Experimental results demonstrate state-of-the-art performance with a peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) of 33.42 dB and SSIM of 0.9590. Our qualitative and comparative analyses further support our claims by assessing our proposed model's capacity to recover clear and artifact-free images from hazy images - outperforming the existing methods on this challenging real-world benchmark.

Wael A. Salah , Anees Abu Sneineh
Nowadays, ensuring the comfort and safety of house users is a top priority, and this may be accomplished by implementing smart technology to lead a convenient and safe life. Leakage of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), which is mostly utilized in the home kitchen for cooking, is one of the frequent risks. Using a gas sensing device, a gas control system, and wireless communication units, the goal of this study is to create an LPG gas leakage warning and management system to prevent the gas from exploding by detecting the leak. When LPG gas is brought near the sensor, it detects the leakage and the buzzer is activated by activating the audio-visual alarm and closing the gas cylinder valve. The system also generates alert messages and sends them to the fire station when the LPG gas leakage has reached a critical level. Testing results of the proposed LPG leakage system show a satisfactory performance of the developed device with a quick response to LPG gas leakage. In addition, powerful audio and visual alarms are activated. An immediate message was sent to homeowners and the fire station department regarding the leakage incident to prevent the risk of gas leakage.

Conventional phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (LEDs) using silicone binders often suffer from yellowing, moisture degradation, and limited spectral tunability, restricting their performance in high-power street lighting. To overcome these limitations, this study aims to develop an advanced LED illumination system integrating a KBr-doped sol-gel/silica phosphor with total internal reflection (TIR) lenses and a reflective housing, encapsulated by an atomic layer deposition (ALD)-coated minilens panel. The sol-gel matrix, synthesized from MTEOS, TEOS, and silica granules, was engineered to achieve uniform KBr particle dispersion, reduced thermal quenching, and improved chromatic stability. The ALD laminate provides an additional moisture and heat barrier, sealing micro-defects and minimizing stress-induced cracking. Optical performance was quantitatively assessed using Monte Carlo beam-tracking simulations under various street configurations, including focal, zigzag, and single-plane pole layouts. Results demonstrated enhanced luminous efficacy, precise glare control, and high uniformity in street illumination. Overall, this integrated sol-gel/ALD LED design effectively addresses the durability and color instability problems of traditional silicone systems, offering a scalable and energy efficient solution for next-generation street lighting.

Investigating relationships between reading comprehension and oral reading fluency through AI-driven tool reading progress

10.11591/ijaas.v14.i4.pp1192-1199
Pham Duc Thuan , Pham Thi Tam
This study investigates the relationship between reading comprehension and oral reading fluency components—accuracy and rate—among 113 Vietnamese EFL university students using the AI-powered tool Microsoft Reading Progress. Over 14 weeks, students engaged in weekly oral reading and comprehension tasks using integrated Microsoft Teams features. Fluency metrics (accuracy and rate) and comprehension scores were automatically collected and analyzed using Pearson correlation. The results revealed weak but statistically significant positive correlations between reading comprehension and accuracy (r = .257, p < .01), and between comprehension and rate (r = .289, p < .01), suggesting that improvements in fluency modestly support comprehension. A strong correlation between accuracy and rate (r = .765, p < .01) was also observed. The study highlights the effectiveness of Reading Progress in capturing fluency data and promoting self-paced improvement. However, limitations such as the short duration, localized sample, and constraints of accent recognition in AI-based speech analysis affect the generalizability and validity of results. The findings support the pedagogical integration of AI tools in EFL instruction while calling for future research with larger samples, extended timelines, and diversified digital tools to further validate and expand on these results.

Monther Tarawneh
The use of physical money continues, posing ongoing challenges in the form of counterfeit money. This problem not only poses a threat to economic stability but also undermines confidence in the financial systems in use. Traditional methods such as manual inspections and testing of security features have become ineffective in detecting advanced counterfeiting techniques on an ongoing basis. This study proposes a hybrid model that harnesses the power of artificial intelligence, combining convolutional neural networks (CNNs), long short-term memory networks (LSTMs), and support vector machines (SVMs) for counterfeit detection. The proposed model leverages the diverse strengths of a number of artificial intelligence techniques, combining the ability to detect counterfeiting, analyse visual aspects, and sequences of banknotes. The proposed model was tested using real Jordanian currency sets of different denominations and datasets generated using generative adversarial networks (GANs). The results showed that the model was able to detect counterfeiting with high accuracy of 98.6%. and minimal errors compared to other methods. This outstanding performance demonstrates the benefits of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and that there is room for development and solutions that can keep up with advanced counterfeiting strategies. The study demonstrates the importance of integrating AI in maintaining the integrity of physical currency transactions.
