Investigating Personalized Learning Paths to Address Educational Disparities Using Advanced Artificial Intelligence Systems
This innovative study reimagines the role of Natural Language Processing (NLP) in individualized education by highlighting the critical need to incorporate cultural subtleties. While natural language processing (NLP) offers great potential for improving classroom instruction, current research frequently fails to account for the complex issues caused by cultural variation. This research fills a significant need by providing a novel framework for the detection and incorporation of cultural subtleties into individualized learning programs. Further research into common biases is driving the development of natural language processing models with greater cultural sensitivity and awareness, such as gender bias in Named Entity Recognition (NER) and sentiment bias in cultural preferences. In order to correct past biases and promote gender neutrality in educational content, the research makes use of an adaptive NER algorithm and a diverse training dataset. Similarly, to guarantee nuanced and fair sentiment evaluations, the study suggests regularly evaluating and retraining sentiment algorithms with datasets that represent multiple cultures. A Cultural Relevance Score of 0.9, Adaptive Content Embedding vectors [0.3, 0.6, -0.2.], and an impressive Cosine Similarity of 0.85 are some of the evaluation measures that highlight the effectiveness of the research. These measurements show encouraging gains, which confirms that the research might help make schools more welcoming and sensitive to different cultures. The research has the potential to revolutionize individualized education by making it more accessible and engagingfor students from all backgrounds. 2024 IEEE. -

Volatility Spillover Effects in Cryptocurrencies
Cryptocurrencies' growing use has increased investors and decision- makers interest. Cryptocurrencies' volatility and how it impacts others is most intriguing. Arguments include speculative pressures, valuation uncertainty, and lack of regulation. These traits cannot fully explain cryptocurrency volatility and volatility spillovers, suggesting other relevant factors. In this study, currency volatility and spillovers, as well as their relationship with the sentiment of global investors, were investigated. The study analysed 22 cryptocurrencies from 01/01/2018 to 31/12/2022. The study used FIGARCH and FIEGARCH, a GARCH family model to analyse the long-memory and leverage effects on cryptocurrency volatility, the ADCC-GARCH framework, and the Diebold-Yilmaz spillover index to analyse cryptocurrency volatility spillovers. The long-memory and leverage impacts on bitcoin volatility were analysed using the FIGARCH and FIEGARCH models from the GARCH family. Both the Chow-test and the Pai-Berron Test found structural breaks in the cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrencies such as Adacordono, Aertinity, ARK, BAT, BCH, BNT, BTC, Dogecoin, Ethereum, Funtoken, ICON, KMD, KNC, NEO, PIVX, QTUM, SNT, TRX, ZCASH, have positive (difference) FIGARCH coefficient values. It indicates a long memory in currencies, and volatility shocks affect future volatility. On the other hand, the FIGARCH coefficient of BTG cryptocurrency (difference) is negative (-0.035), which suggests that the individual has a short memory. In this scenario, the effects of volatility shocks are only temporary. When extreme volatility is promptly followed by low volatility or vice versa, this indicates anti- persistence. The study also found that both positive and negative news has a significant impact on the volatility of specific cryptocurrencies such as BCH (0.015), BNT (0.0016), BTG (0.01972), DOGE (0.2296), EOS (0.0112), KNC (0.0366), PIVX (0.0021), TRX (0.0013), Adacordono (- 0.027), Aertinity (-0.0393), ARK (-0.0377), BAT (-0.028058), and BTC (-0.0665). Ethereum has the largest spillover (4.09), followed by QTUM (4.06), EOS (4.05), Adacordono (4.05), and Dogecoin (2.4). All cryptocurrencies show fundamental instabilities (P-values less than 0.05). Hence the alternative hypothesis is accepted, and the null hypothesis is rejected. The hill estimator tail index value is ? > 0, fat tail or heavy tail; high chance of catastrophic event which is observed in all the 22 cryptocurrencies. Both investors and speculators can use sentiment analysis to forecast market volatility and generate gains. Policymakers can also utilize this information to establish laws that reduce market volatility. As a result, the study contributes to the ongoing discussion on the factors that cause bitcoin's volatility.3 -

Exploring perceptions of psychology students in Delhi-NCR Region towards using mental health apps to promote resilience: a qualitative study
Background: Mental health apps (MHapps) have the potential to become an essential constituent for addressing mental health disparities and influencing the psychological outcomes of students in India. Though lauded as a practical approach to preventing various mental health issues, there are concerns that developing and utilizing MHapps standardized on Western populations produce ineffective results for the natives of Asian countries such as India due to a wide range of cultural differences. This research was conducted on psychology students living in the Delhi-NCR region of the Indian subcontinent. The study explored psychology students perceptions, needs, and preferences regarding mental health apps that promote resilience, identified barriers and facilitators for developing effective mental health apps, and explored the cultural relevance of the development of MHapps in India. Methods: This was an exploratory study utilizing focus group discussions among psychology students. Psychology students were sampled using snowball sampling from Delhi-NCR region colleges to participate in FGDs. We conducted six focus groups, which included a representation of 30 psychology students from full-time UG/PG courses. The study used a reflexive thematic analysis framework using the six-step Braun and Clarke process to develop themes. Results: Psychology students valued MHapps for their easy accessibility, 24*7 functionality, affordable costs, highly engaging features, and the option of being anonymous. However, students preferred the apps based on established psychological frameworks with strong empirical evidence and the availability of remote mental health professionals with relevant qualifications and training. The main barriers to using MHapps identified by students included difficulties in differentiating between real and fake MHapps, lack of progress tracking of the users due to minimal human interactions, and ethical and data privacy concerns. Students also emphasized the cultural relevance of MHapps. The interpretation of our findings indicates that students demanded transparency regarding the authenticity of MHapps. Conclusion: The findings of this exploratory investigation offer a better understanding of how college students perceive the usage of MHapps to improve resilience. This study highlights that further research should explore the specific needs and preferences of university students for developing and implementing effective MHapps for different contexts.

Design of Triple Tuned Passive Harmonic Power Filter - A Novel Approach
Nowadays, there is a race between active and passive harmonic filters and still ambiguity persists. It is a proven fact that active harmonic filters (AHFs) are costly solutions though have proved better than passive harmonic filters. Except sizing and resonance problems, tuned passive harmonic filters (TPHFs) are proved to give economical solutions with little compromise on their performance. The accurate design of TPHFs gives a greater impact on its performance. The triple-TPHF (TTPHF) is essential to alleviate first three dominant ac side current harmonics simultaneously at the high voltage direct current (HVdc) converters and it is proved better than the single and double TPHFs. Existing equivalent methods of TTPHF design failed to give satisfactory performance under dynamic conditions. Hence, this article introduces a novel parametric method-based design of TTPHF, which will give better performance under static and dynamic loading conditions. The results also reveal that the proposed TTPHF design method will perform better than the existing methods. 2021 IEEE. -

Facile synthesis of Bi2WO6-NiO nanocomposite for supercapacitor application
In order to prepare for future high-power storage-related applications, a tremendous amount of studies have been conducted on the manufacturing of high-performance supercapacitor electrodes. The hydrothermal technique was used to synthesize Bi2WO6NiO nanocomposite (NC), which was examined using FTIR, XRD, HR-TEM, EDX, FESEM, and XPS techniques. Furthermore, the Bi2WO6-NiO NC performs with an elevated specific capacity of 398.2C/g at 10 mV/s. The charge transfer resistance (Rct) and solution resistance (Rs) of Bi2WO6-NiO NC were determined as 0.81 and 0.23 ? using electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS). Bi2WO6-NiO NC extended the chargedischarge time and rate capacities, as shown by the galvanostatic chargedischarge (GCD) analysis. Even after 2000 cycles, Bi2WO6-NiO NC cyclic stability was superior with a capacitive retention of 89.3 %. A power density of 6750 W/kg resulted from the constructed asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) device based on Bi2WO6-NiO/AC, exhibiting an energy density of 32.5 Wh/kg. Additionally, the ASC maintains high cyclic stability with 90.8 % of initial capacity, even after 2000 chargedischarge cycles in a row. 2024 Elsevier B.V.
