Phuchit Laowang , Suntonrapot Damrongpanit
This groundbreaking study unveils critical factors driving research utilization (RU) among Thai educators, offering vital insights for educational policymakers and administrators. Employing an advanced partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) approach, we examined data from 688 teachers under the office of the basic education commission. Our findings reveal a complex interplay of factors influencing RU, with organizational support (SUPP) emerging as the most potent driver (beta=0.570), followed by knowledge and research skills (KNOWS) (beta=0.539), organizational leadership (LEAD) (beta=0.472), and attributes of research (ATTR) (beta=0.391). Interestingly, ATTR showed the highest direct effect (DE) (beta=0.391), while LEAD had the strongest indirect impact (beta=0.429). Surprisingly, organizational climate (ORGA) showed no significant effect, challenging conventional wisdom. The study explains 52.5% of the variance in RU, providing a robust foundation for evidence-based educational reforms. Delve into our analysis to discover how these relationships between knowledge, leadership, and organizational dynamics shape educational RU in Thailand, and explore our recommendations for enhancing research integration in educational practices.

Jakarta, as a rapidly growing urban area, faces challenges in balancing energy demand with supply while addressing environmental concerns associated with traditional energy sources. Electrical energy production prediction in urban environments like Jakarta is crucial for effective energy management, ensuring stable supply, and promoting sustainable development. The prediction of electrical energy production in Jakarta is critical for ensuring stable and sustainable energy supply. This research proposed the application of the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) as a predictive tool specifically tailored for Jakarta's energy production prediction context. The research methodology used in this study is the ANFIS. Five levels make up the architecture of the ANFIS model: output, normalization, defuzzification, rule evaluation, and fuzzification. The fuzzification layer converts input variables into linguistic terms using membership functions, while the rule evaluation layer calculates the activation strength of each rule based on the input values. The predicted results of Jakarta electrical energy production from 2023 to 2028 are 65,288 GWh and there is an annual increase of 5.25%. The error contained in ANFIS is with a root mean square error (RMSE) value of 0.0001058% and a mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) value of 0.00875%.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complicated hormonal condition that is experienced by women. Despite extensive research, the precise reason be hind PCOS remains unknown, and effective treatments are still lacking. Thus, early diagnosis and treatment have a significant positive impact on the health of women. Recently, there has been remarkable performance demonstrated by machine learning (ML)-based detection models for PCOS identification. They are fast and low cost compared to the traditional processes. In this work, a multi stacking PCOS detection model is proposed using K-fold cross validation. The model uses three different ML algorithms namely: na¨ıve Bayes (NB), ran dom forest (RF), and logistic regression (LR) as base classifiers and a neural network, multi-layer perception (MLP) as meta model. This approach utilizes two feature selection techniques and compares the performances on the stack ing methods. Among the two feature selection techniques, Pearson correlation approach performed better with average 98.79% accuracy, 99.17% sensitivity, 98.40% specificity, and 98.79% f1-score.

Suresh Jaganathan , Karthika Veeramani
The increasing use of resource-constrained devices such as the internet of things (IoT) in various applications has led to the need for an optimized blockchain framework for these devices. Blockchain-based IoT networks allow businesses to access and share IoT data within their organization without centralized authority. However, existing frameworks are not designed for IoT applications and lack features like decentralization, scalability, and network overhead. To overcome these limitations, a new blockchain framework is proposed: ledger on internet of things (LIoT), which has a new consensus-based leader election algorithm to address the challenges of existing algorithms with high block creation time and communication overhead. Moreover, a novel data structure has been developed to reduce the storage size of the ledger effectively. The proposed framework also employs a docker for deployment, which provides an efficient and easy setup of blockchain nodes without requiring the individual configuration of each machine, increases the efficiency of the consensus process, and enables convenient deployment and management of the blockchain framework on resource-constrained devices. Furthermore, the performance of the proposed consensus method is analyzed using various performance parameters, including CPU usage, memory usage, transaction execution time, and block generation time.

The medical visual question answering (MVQA) system takes the advantage of both computer vision (CV) and natural language processing (NLP) to accept the medical image and corresponding question as input and generates the respective answer as output. One step further, the MVQA system capable of generating the answer based on the semantics has a distinct place and hence semantic based medical visual question answering (SMVQA) system is proposed in this research. In SMVQA, the semantics for input image and question are generated using layerwise relevance propagation explainable artificial intelligence (LRP XAI) technique and the answer is derived using deductive reasoning method. For this, seven MVQA datasets are used for model creation, testing and validation. The training phase of the SMVQA system is implemented using VGGNet, long short-term memory (LSTM), LRP XAI, ResNet and bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) to generate a model file. Then the inference is derived in the testing phase based on the generated model file for the test set. Finally, the answer is derived from the inference using natural language toolkit (NLTK) library, term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF), cosine similarity, best match25 (BM25) techniques along with deductive reasoning. As a result, the proposed SMVQA system gives improved performance then the existing MVQA system especially for abnormality type samples.
