Sentiment Analysis on Banking Feedback and News Data using Synonyms and Antonyms
Sentiment analysis is crucial for deciphering customers enthusiasm, frustration, and the market mood within the banking sector. This importance arises from financial datas specialized and sensitive nature, enabling a deeper understanding of customer sentiments. In todays digital and social marketing landscape within the banking and financial sector, sentiment analysis is significant in shaping customer insights, product development, brand reputation management, risk management, customer service improvement, fraud detection, market research, compliance regulations, etc. This paper introduces a novel approach to sentiment analysis in the banking sector, emphasizing integrating diverse text features to enable dynamic analysis. This proposed approach aims to assess the sentiment score of distinct words used within a document and classify them as positive, negative, or neutral. After rephrasing sentences using synonyms and antonyms of unique words, the system calculates sentence similarity using a distance control mechanism. Then, the system updates the dataset with the positive, negative, and neutral labels. Ultimately, the ELECTRA model utilizes the self-trained sentiment-scored data dictionary, and the newly created dataset is processed using the SoftMax activation function in combination with a customized ADAM optimizer. The approachs effectiveness is confirmed through the analysis of post-bank customer feedback and the phrase bank dataset, yielding accuracy scores of 92.15% and 93.47%, respectively. This study stands out due to its unique approach, which centers on evaluating customer satisfaction and market sentiment by utilizing sentiment scores of words and assessing sentence similarities. 2023, Science and Information Organization.

Serendipitous detection of an intense X-ray flare in the weak-line T Tauri star KM Ori with SRG/eROSITA
Weak-line T Tauri stars (WTTS) exhibit X-ray flares, likely resulting from magnetic reconnection that heats the stellar plasma to very high temperatures. These flares are difficult to identify through targeted observations. Here, we report the serendipitous detection of the brightest X-ray flaring state of the WTTS KM Ori in the eROSITA DR1 survey. Observations from SRG/eROSITA, Chandra X-ray Observatory, and XMM-Newton are analysed to assess the X-ray properties of KM Ori, thereby establishing its flaring state at the eROSITA epoch. The long-term (1999-2020) X-ray light curve generated for the Chandra observations confirmed that eROSITA captured the source at its highest X-ray flaring state recorded to date. Multi-instrument observations support the X-ray flaring state of the source, with time-averaged X-ray luminosity reaching at the eROSITA epoch, marking it the brightest and possibly the longest flare observed so far. Such intense X-ray flares have been detected only in a few WTTS. The X-ray spectral analysis unveils the presence of multiple thermal plasma components at all epochs. The notably high luminosity , energy (erg), and the elevated emission measures of the thermal components in the eROSITA epoch indicate a superflare/megaflare state of KM Ori. Additionally, the H line equivalent width of from our optical spectral analysis, combined with the lack of infrared excess in the spectral energy distribution, were used to re-confirm the WTTS (thin disc/disc-less) classification of the source. The long-duration flare of KM Ori observed by eROSITA indicates the possibility of a slow-rise top-flat flare. The detection demonstrates the potential of eROSITA to uncover such rare, transient events, thereby providing new insights into the X-ray activity of WTTS. The Author(s), 2025.

Series solutions for an unsteady flow and heat transfer of a rotating dusty fluid with radiation effect
A theoretical analysis of free convective MHD flow of an unsteady rotating dusty fluid under the influence of hall current and radiation effect is carried out. The fluid flow is considered in the porous media under the influence of periodic pressure gradient and the fluid is assumed to be viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting with uniform distribution of dust particles. The governing partial differential equations are solved analytically using perturbation technique and the expressions for skin-friction is also derived. Further the effect of various pertinent parameter like magnetic parameter, rotation parameter and Hall current parameter on velocity of both fluid and dust phases are depicted graphically and the effect of radiation parameter, Grashof number and Prandtl number on temperature profile is also discussed in detail. 2017, Univerzita Komenskeho.

Serverless Data Processing System and its Design Space Consideration
Serverless computing is becoming increasingly important in data-processing applications in science and business. The scheduler is at the centre of serverless data-processing systems, allowing for dynamic decisions on job and data placement. The complex design space, which is influenced by various user, cluster, and workload variables, presents problems for developing high-performance and cost-effective scheduling structures and processes. To make this exploration easier, we present Sched-Probe, a framework that includes a conceptual model and simulator for systematic design space exploration. Using the Sched-Probe framework, we evaluate the performance of three scheduling systems and two techniques using real-world workloads. Our open-source software is now available on ExDe, allowing system designers to collaborate on delving into the complexity of serverless scheduling, paving the way for optimised and efficient data-processing systems. 2024, Iquz Galaxy Publisher.

Service request scheduling based on quantification principle using conjoint analysis and Z-score in cloud
Service request scheduling has a major impact on the performance of the service processing design in a large-scale distributed computing environment like cloud systems. It is desirable to have a service request scheduling principle that evenly distributes the workload among the servers, according to their capacities. The capacities of the servers are termed high or low relative to one another. Therefore, there is a need to quantify the server capacity to overcome this subjective assessment. Subsequently, a method to split and distribute the service requests based on this quantified server capacity is also needed. The novelty of this research paper is to address these requirements by devising a service request scheduling principle for a heterogeneous distributed system using appropriate statistical methods, namely Conjoint analysis and Z-score. Suitable experiments were conducted and the experimental results show considerable improvement in the performance of the designed service request scheduling principle compared to a few other existing principles. Areas of further improvement have also been identified and presented. Copyright 2018 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science. All rights reserved. -
Sesquiterpenoid-rich Java Ginger rhizome extract prompts autophagic cell death in cervical cancer cell SiHa mainly by modulating cellular redox homeostasis
Java Ginger or Curcuma zanthorrhiza Roxb. has long gained focus among tribal people of Java, for its medicinal properties mainly against gynaecological challenges. The present study aims to identify the most potent phytocompound present in the extract and determine primary mode of action accountable for cytotoxic activity of Curcuma zanthorrhiza rhizome extract against HPV16-positive SiHa cervical cancer cells. The phytochemically-rich extract of rhizome (CZM) was capable to inhibit proliferation of target cells in a dose-dependent manner with an IC50 of 150?g/ml. Dysregulation of intercellular antioxidant defence system resulted to surges in ROS and RNS level, increased calcium concentration and compromised mitochondrial membrane potential. Nucleus got affected, cell cycle dynamics got impaired while clonogenicity and migration ability diminished. Expression of viral oncogenes E7 and E6 decreased significantly. Accumulation of toxic cell metabolite and decrease in level of essential ones continued. Finally, alteration in PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling route was followed by onset of autophagic cell death concomitant with the upregulated expression of Beclin1, Atg5-12 and LC3II. Curcumin and a novel crystal as well as few phyto-fractions were isolated by column chromatography. Of these, curcumin was found to be most potent in inducing cytotoxicity in SiHa while two other fractions also showed significant activity. Thus, CZM acted against SiHa cells by inducing autophagy that commences in compliance to the changes in PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway mainly in response to oxidative stress. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report of Curcuma zanthorrhiza Roxb. inducing autophagy. 2022, King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology. -

SETTING NARRATIVE THROUGH INSTAGRAM POSTS: A STUDY OF BBC'S REPORTAGE ON AFGHANISTAN
Media organizations have an immense role to play in disseminating informa-tion and shaping perspectives across borders. Though the information revolution pro-vides us with many new opportunities, it also helps in establishing a single narrative through the cultural cultivation of popular media over time. Orientalism, in this manner, presents an image that the West created of the Near East centuries ago and these second-hand experiences are enhanced over the years by the powerful states and media organi-zations to maintain the established hegemony. This current study focuses on understanding the British Broadcasting Corporation's narrative and its ability to include and exclude certain historical facts while reporting on the Taliban's takeover of Afghanistan through Instagram posts. The study found BBC portraying a favorable image for the role played by the NATO allies in Afghanistan and described the Taliban as a sheer group of terror, barbaric, and inhumane organization, following extreme Sharia laws. 2022 Pluto Journals.

Sex determination using finger print ridge density among the medical students of NIMS medical college, Jaipur
To determine the sex of an individual plays an important role among forensic pathologists and scientists particularly when the fingerprints recovered from the crime scene does not match any of the criminal record so in that case fingerprint ridge density plays an important role in determining the sex of an individual. The present study was done among the 100 medical students of NIMS Medical college (50 males and 50 females) shobha nagar, Jaipur. Finger ridge density was counted on the radial border of each print. Result of the study shows that females have higher number of finger ridge density count as compared to males. Application of Bayes theorem suggests that finger print ridge density count <14ridges/25mm2 is more likely to be male while finger print ridge density count >14ridges/25mm2 is more likely to be female. 2016, World Informations Syndicate.

Sexual health and safety of adolescents with intellectual disability: Challenges and concerns among special educators in India
Sexual health education among adolescents with intellectual disabilities is an area of concern among parents and educators. Special educators play a vital role in teaching sexual health and safety to their students with disabilities. The present study explores special educators' concerns in teaching sexual health among adolescents with intellectual disabilities. The participants included 35 special educators working with adolescents with intellectual disabilities in India. Summative content analysis of the data collected using a semi-structured interview schedule highlights the neglect of the issues related to sexual health among adolescents with disabilities. Special educators reported the challenges in providing sexual health education. Teachers lacked skills in imparting sexual health education. Developmentally and culturally appropriate sexual health education can help adolescents with a disability learn healthy life skills. The paper emphasizes the need for professional support and training among special educators on sexual health education. The Author(s) 2022. -
Sexual Narcissism among Men with Sexual Dysfunctions: An Exploratory Study
Objective: Previous studies have associated sexual narcissism with aggressive behaviours prevalent among most Cluster B populations. Recent evidence shows that certain characteristics of sexual narcissism could be beneficial for sexual and marital satisfaction. The present study is an exploration of the role of narcissism in Sexual dysfunctions. Method: A cross-sectional design involving a sample of 62 men aged 2260 years was used for the study. The sample consisted of 31 men having sexual dysfunctions and a matched control group of 31 men free from sexual dysfunctions. Tools used were the International Index for Erectile Functioning, Modified MINI, Sexual Dysfunctional Beliefs Questionnaire, Sexual Narcissism Scale, and Questionnaire for Cognitive Schema Activation in Sexual Context. Scores were subjected to discriminant analysis, and relevant variables were correlated to assess the strength of the association. Results: Results indicated that beliefs about Female Sexual Power (FSP), Helplessness Schema, and Exploitative behaviours of Sexual Narcissism were the best predictors that differentiated the two groups. The higher the scores on these variables, the lower the erectile functioning. FSP shared a positive correlation with both Exploitation and Helplessness, while the latter two variables were unrelated. Conclusions: A higher need to stick to traditional gender roles and fear of being overpowered could be contributing to sexually exploitative behaviours and relationship distress, which in turn, could affect self-efficacy and contribute to Sexual dysfunction.

Sexual Relationship Decision Making Based on Entertainment Media: A Qualitative Perspective Among Young Couples
As important as physical, mental, or social health is sexual health. Teenage pregnancy, STDs/STIs, and unsafe abortions are just a few of the population health issues that can arise from the absence of adequate sex education for young people. The purpose of this study is to investigate the process of sexual decision-making as influenced by media intervention among couples. Entertainment education (EE) is an approach that uses storytelling to influence large-scale behaviour change. EE has been used as a potent tool to educate, enlighten, and influence society and individual behaviour change worldwide. Through entertainment education, people have been taught about themes like HIV, family planning, pregnancy and child health, violence against women, and other subjects. Web series or movies that are accessible on the online subscription service, Netflix was taken into consideration for this study. Although there is a great deal of research on adolescent sexuality, studies of sexual decision-making have traditionally been gendered, meaning that men and women have been examined separately. This study is designed for a qualitative investigation using a phenomenological approach. Thematic analysis was employed to analyse semi-structured interviews of couples in a heterosexual romantic relationship. The findings will reveal the influence of entertainment education on young couples choices in their intimate relationships. 2024, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG. -
Sexual Selection, Signaling and Facial Hair: US and India Ratings of Variable Male Facial Hair
Objective: The objective of this study was to address the putative ancestral social signaling value of male facial hair, in concert with variable cultural meaning. The ability to grow facial hair might have served as an honest ancestral signal of male age, social dominance, strength and health. Male facial hair may also have had signaling value for attractiveness, though these might be less strong than effects tied to male-male competition. Male facial hair can also be modified, giving rise to cultural variation in its potential signaling function. Methods: We surveyed N= 252 US men and women and N= 280 Indian men and women, ages 1825, about sociodemographics and attitudes toward male facial hair. Participants rated a randomized series of nine images of a composite male model with facial hair with respect to: preferred style, estimated age, attractive to potential partners, assertive, physically strong, friendly, and healthy. Types of facial hair were group into three categories: clean shaven, partial (e.g., Van Dyke, soul patch, stubble) and beard. Results: Supporting hypothesized differences, results show that more male facial hair was positively associated with age estimates and negatively with friendliness, and positively related to assertiveness and physical strength. Supporting hypotheses, women preferred less facial hair and rated less facial hair as more attractive. Some sample differences arose, such as Indian participants perceiving greater age range estimates than US respondents. Conclusion: These data indicate patterned variation in evaluations of male facial hair that can be situated within an evolutionary and culturally evolved signaling framework. 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG. -
Sexual violence in cyberspace: breaking the silence of international law
The increasing dependence of the world on digital technology and the internet has consequently led to the juxtaposition of the problematic social structure in online transactions and communications. This has resulted in increasing cases of cybersexual violence against women. The article argues that the effects of cybercrimes are transnational and, therefore, the traditional domestic criminal law is rather inept in preventing crime and punishing offenders. This increases the obligation of international law, which has so far remained silent on the issue. The articles conclusion suggests that the proposed World Convention on Cybercrime should include cybersexual violence as a core crime. This would serve as a beginning for addressing the threat, effect, and extent of the crime of cybersexual violence. The article concludes that the masculinist normative structure of international law is to blame for its culture of silence. Copyright 2024 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd. -

Shared Mobility and Indias Generation Z: Environmental Consciousness, Risks, and Attitudes
Shared mobility platforms have built scalable digital marketplaces that facilitate the allocation and sharing of transportation and promote sustainable urban travel. Generation Zs attitude toward shared consumption is closely linked to their perceptions of the importance of sustainability. This study identifies Generation Zs awareness of shared mobility platforms in India and the factors that influence their use. Data were collected from 318 respondents from Generation Z in India and analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling. Findings indicate that Generation Zs intention to use shared mobility is influenced by environmental consciousness, social aspects, economic benefits, and perceived risks. Results also show that perceived risks have an indirect effect on intention, which is mediated by attitude. The novel conceptual model developed and tested in this research can be used to inform policies and business models for the adoption of shared mobility services for Generation Z, ultimately promoting more sustainable transportation systems and improved urban mobility. 2024 by the authors.
