AI-Based Risk Profiling of Online Human Trafficking Victims: A Multimodal Framework for Proactive Detection
subject: ethical AI; Human trafficking detection; multimodal AI; social network analysis; victim risk profiling; weakly supervised learning
description: Human trafficking is still a major worldwide crime that is made easier by digital channels, including social media, job advertisements, and websites that offer escort services. This study offers a thorough examination of artificial intelligence (AI) approaches to human trafficking detection and prevention, with a focus on identifying the most susceptible groups. From authorship attribution and geolocation extraction to social network analysis and multimodal detection, we analyze around 20 scholarly papers that include text, photos, audio, and network data. Lack of victim-focused profiling, data scarcity, bias in AI, and ethical deployment issues are some of the main research needs. In response, we provide a conceptual AI system that uses publicly available signals to evaluate individual vulnerability by combining network analysis, natural language processing, and weakly supervised learning. This work emphasizes the importance of ethically grounded AI systems to assist NGOs, law enforcement, and policymakers proactively identify at-risk individuals and prevent exploitation before it occurs. 2025 IEEE.

Energy Intelligence: The Smart Grid Perspective
description: Smart grids enable a two-way data-driven flow of electricity, allowing systematic communication along the distribution line. Smart grids utilize various power sources, automate the process of energy distribution and fault identification, facilitate better power usage, etc. Artificial Intelligence plays an important role in the management of power grids, making it even smarter. With the help of Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things, smart grids can optimize the energy consumption, provide continuous feedback on usage, and monitor live usage statistics, thereby making the energy intelligent. Smart grids require specific hardware to continuously monitor and adapt to the requirements of the system. By enabling energy intelligence, we empower building-level and city-level optimizations that make use of green energy, thereby contributing more toward sustainable development. Thus, the multifaceted energy management system uses sustainable and renewable energy sources, combined with smart devices to provide a two-way communication system to optimize the end-to-end distribution of energy, beneficial to both suppliers and consumers.

Security Aspects for Mutation Testing in Mobile Applications
subject: Android; GeneTic; Mobile apps; Mutation testing
description: Due to the increase in the number of Android Platform Devices, there are more and more applications being developed across various domains. It is interesting to see the involvement of bugs/crashes even in the deployed applications even though it has been through various test phases. Unit tests are essential in a well-trusted testing environment; however, it does not guarantee that the range of test caries every component of the application. This writes up discusses the overview of mutation testing method concerning Android Applications. Even though mutation testing is found out to be very effective in other applications, it is not that easy to implement the same for an Android Developed Application because of additional resources it would hold. Further, various measures for mutation testing are discussed with types of mutant operators, tools etc. The current studies of mutation analysis mainly focus on testing all the functionalities irrespective of the resource usage. However, the target of the future mutation tests must be also to evaluate the efficiency of the applications under the same test cases. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

Elementary Methods for Generating Three-Dimensional Coordinate Estimation and Image Reconstruction from Series of Two-Dimensional Images
description: The increase in computational power in recent years has opened a new door for image processing techniques. Three-dimensional object recognition, identification, pose estimation, and mapping are becoming popular. The need for real-world objects to be mapped into three-dimensional spatial representation is greatly increasing, especially considering the heap jump we obtained in the past decade in virtual reality and augmented reality. This paper discusses an algorithm to convert an array of captured images into estimated 3D coordinates of their external mappings. Elementary methods for generating three-dimensional models are also discussed. This framework will help the community in estimating three-dimensional coordinates of a convex-shaped object from a series of two-dimension images. The built model could be further processed for increasing the resemblance of the input object in terms of its shapes, contour, and texture. 2021 Naived George Eapen et al.

A Worldwide Test of the Predictive Validity of Ideal Partner Preference Matching
subject: attraction; close relationships; human mating; ideals; matching hypothesis
description: Ideal partner preferences (i.e., ratings of the desirability of attributes like attractiveness or intelligence) are the source of numerous foundational findings in the interdisciplinary literature on human mating. Recently, research on the predictive validity of ideal partner preference matching (i.e., Do people positively evaluate partners who match vs. mismatch their ideals?) has become mired in several problems. First, articles exhibit discrepant analytic and reporting practices. Second, different findings emerge across laboratories worldwide, perhaps because they sample different relationship contexts and/or populations. This registered reportpartnered with the Psychological Science Acceleratoruses a highly powered design (N = 10,358) across 43 countries and 22 languages to estimate preference-matching effect sizes. The most rigorous tests revealed significant preference-matching effects in the whole sample and for partnered and single participants separately. The corrected pattern metric that collapses across 35 traits revealed a zero-order effect of ? =.19 and an effect of ? =.11 when included alongside a normative preference-matching metric. Specific traits in the level metric (interaction) tests revealed very small (average ? =.04) effects. Effect sizes were similar for partnered participants who reported ideals before entering a relationship, and there was no consistent evidence that individual differences moderated any effects. Comparisons between stated and revealed preferences shed light on gender differences and similarities: For attractiveness, mens and (especially) womens stated preferences underestimated revealed preferences (i.e., they thought attractiveness was less important than it actually was). For earning potential, mens stated preferences underestimatedand womens stated preferences overestimatedrevealed preferences. Implications for the literature on human mating are discussed. 2024 American Psychological Association

Sustainability and Gender Equality: SDG5Gender Differences in Bargaining in the Housing Market
description: This chapter investigates whether gender differences exist in bargaining behaviour in the housing market. The impact of personality dispositions, location preferences and other such variables on the individuals willingness and ability to bargain and obtain a concession is studied. The variables were estimated using a 5-point Likert scale, and the final dataset was analysed by implementing logistic regression model. Findings suggest that gender, product knowledge, bargaining disposition, role of agent and reference price significantly impact bargaining behaviour. The study validates the need to attain the fifth Sustainable Development Goal, i.e. Gender Equality. The current emphasis is to ensure full participation of women in decision-making capabilities by 2030 (UN Women, Progress on the sustainable development goals: the gender snapshot, UN Women, New York, 2022), but it is found that men bargain more than women in the rental housing market. The chapter contributes to existing literature by studying gender differences in the rental housing market and justifies the findings with the help of primary data analysis. 2024 The Author(s).

Information and communication technology integration in education by harare secondary school teachers in relation to school technology culture and their educational leader competencies
subject: Education
description: Information and Communication Technology (ICT) integration in education refers newlineto using technology in teaching and learning processes. The use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the classroom would solve a lot of the problems related to Zimbabwean secondary school education. It motivates students to learn by providing a variety of learning activities such as watching videos, viewing pictures and models and online quizzes. This interests students who are digital natives and is more applicable to their everyday experiences. newlineStudent participation increases when ICT is used in the classroom as students are newlineconversant with the use of technology. ICT integration in education also allows students to learn in circumstances where there are shortages of teachers. The culture which exists in a school and the competencies of the educational leaders cannot be ignored when planning for and assessing the outcome of ICT integration programs. This study focused on Information and Communication newlineTechnology Integration in Education by Harare Secondary School Teachers, in relation to School Technology Culture and their Educational Leader Competencies . A survey was carried out in government and private secondary schools in Harare, Zimbabwe during the period from October 2012 to mid-2013. The population was all the secondary school teachers in Harare district of Zimbabwe. According to the data obtained from the Ministry of Education in October 2012, the target population of secondary school teachers in Harare was 4 244. The sample size was calculated based on an equation cited from Camorin and Calmorin (2007:230). This newlinegave a sample of 248 teachers from Harare secondary schools. 140 were females and 108 males. Four research instruments were used for data collection: a proforma on demographics, the ICT Integration questionnaire (ICTIQ), the School Technology Culture (STC) Scale and the Educational Leader Competency (ELC) scale.

Spectroscopic Study of Late-type Emission-line Stars Using the Data from LAMOST DR6
subject: Line: identification; Stars: activity; Stars: late-type
description: Low-mass emission-line stars belong to various evolutionary stages, from pre-main-sequence young stars to evolved stars. In this work, we present a catalog of late-type (F0 to M9) emission-line stars from the LAMOST Data Release 6. Using the scipy package, we created a Python code that finds the emission peak at H? in all late-type stellar spectra. A data set of 38,152 late-type emission-line stars was obtained after a rigorous examination of the photometric quality flags and the signal-to-noise ratio of the spectra. Adopting well-known photometric and spectroscopic methods, we classified our sample into 438 infrared (IR) excess sources, 4669 post-main-sequence candidates, 9718 Fe/Ge/Ke sources, and 23,264 dMe sources. From a crossmatch with known databases, we found that 29,222 sources, comprising 65 IR excess sources, 7899 Fe/Ge/Ke stars, 17,533 dMe stars, and 3725 PtMS candidates, are new detections. We measured the equivalent width of the major emission lines observed in the spectra of our sample of emission-line stars. Furthermore, the trend observed in the line strengths of major emission lines over the entire late-type spectral range is analyzed. We further classified the sample into four groups based on the presence of hydrogen and calcium emission lines. This work presents a large data set of late-type emission-line stars, which can be used to study active phenomena in late-type stars. 2024 National Astronomical Observatories, CAS and IOP Publishing Ltd.

subject: Big Data; Business intelligence; data analytics; Database; Deep Learning; Finance marketing
description: In the modern world, data is the unavoidable word. The digital environment in almost all our day to day life is linked with digital data. Effective data management is one of the important tasks. The gradual growth of technology in recent years, the generation of data has increased exponentially. Everything, ranging from sending a mail to simply browsing the internet generates data and this is collected and stored. This data has countless uses in various fields such as medicine, business, agriculture and marketing, but most of the time it goes unused.

Towards Smarter Warehouse Layouts: Simulation-Driven Insights on Congestion and Forklift Flow Patterns
subject: Behavioral Flow Modeling; Discrete Event Simulation; Forklift Logistics; Replication-Based Analysis; Warehouse Slotting Optimization
description: In high-mix, make-to-order warehouse environments, slotting decisions in constrained warehouse settings affect flow dynamics, yet their behavioral implications remain underexplored. This study employs discrete event simulation (DES) using the software FlexSim to evaluate three slotting strategies: baseline reflecting current operations, a benchmark informed by heuristic frequency-based clustering, and a proposed layout based on a learned configuration within a forklift-operated warehouse characterized by narrow aisles, unidirectional traffic, and spatial contention. Instead of emphasizing throughput alone, the study takes a closer look at how forklifts operate on a day-to-day basis, specifically how their time is divided between active movement, waiting due to blockages, and idling with no task assigned. Each strategy was tested over 20 simulation replications. Notably, the proposed layout cut blocked time by more than 30% and allowed forklifts to remain idle (and ready) more often, without reducing overall utilization. These patterns held consistently across runs. Statistical analysis confirmed that the differences in forklift behavior were significant, and Levenes tests showed that performance didnt become more erratic. These findings demonstrate that the improvements are systematic, not random. The work presents a simulation-based method for diagnosing layout effectiveness by looking at behavior, not just outputs, connecting slotting choices to real operational flow and system stability. This approach supports more resilient warehouse designs in settings with limited space and high product mix. 2025 IEEE.

Pluronic f127 encapsulated titanium dioxide nanoparticles: Evaluation of physiochemical properties for biological applications
subject: Biomedical application; Green synthesis; Nanomaterials; Optical properties; Structural analysis
description: The infections caused by bacteria that are resistant to drugs are very bad for human health and kill thousands of people every year. Also, both human actions and natural processes make surface waters more likely to have drug-resistant bacteria grow and spread in the environment. Because of this, researchers need to find new ways to treat bacterial infections quickly becoming resistant to drugs as soon as possible. Drug delivery systems based on nanoparticles have enhanced biocompatibility, biocidal properties, pharmacokinetics, tumor targeting, and stability while exhibiting non-toxicity to normal cells and overcoming drug resistance. In the present work, the pluronic-F127 encapsulated titanium dioxide (PF127/TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by a green process using Morinda citrifolia leaf extract. X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD) revealed that synthesized NPs exhibit an anatase structure. FESEM and TEM images of synthesized PF127/TiO2 NPs showed a polymorphic structure and an average particle size of 5060 nm. The chemical composition of the prepared NPs, which included elements like carbon, titanium, and oxygen, was identified using the EDAX spectrum. With the DLS spectrum, the hydrodynamic sizes of PF127/TiO2 NPs were 176 nm. In the FTIR spectrum, the metal oxide stretching bands like O-Ti-O were located at 664 cm?1 for PF127/TiO2 NPs. The surface defects, including Ti and O vacancies, were studied using the photoluminescence spectrum. The prepared PF127/TiO2 NPs exhibited significant microbial activity for inhibiting hospital pathogenic bacterial and fungal strains, specifically (Staphylococcus aureus) S. aureus, (Streptococcus pneumoniae) S. pneumonia, (Klebsiella pneumoniae) K. pneumonia, (Shigella dysenteriae) S. dysenteriae and (Candida albicans) C. albicans. In addition, PF127/TiO2 NPs had highly anti-cancer properties against human blood cancer (MOLT-4) cell lines. Furthermore, we found that synthesized PF127/TiO2 NPs exhibited anti-inflammatory acti…

Evaluation of physicochemical and biological properties of SnO2 and Fe doped SnO2 nanoparticles
subject: Anticancer; Doping concentration; Green synthesis; Nanoparticles; Structural analysis
description: In recent decades, nanoparticle synthesis has been used for various physical and chemical methods. However, different toxic chemicals are used during this synthesis process to address these concerns, which has multiple effects on environmental toxicity and high cost. To avoid these problems, we need a cost-effective and environmentally friendly approach. In this study, green synthesis was used to make tin oxide (SnO2) and ferrous doped tin oxide (SFO) nanoparticles (NPs) from Morinda citrifolia leaf extracts. The X-ray diffraction patterns of SnO2 and SFO NPs reveal a tetragonal crystalline structure. From the FESEM image of synthesized SnO2 and SFO NPs, their spherical structure and chemical composition were identified by EDX spectrum. Through the DLS spectrum, the hydrodynamic size was observed at 66 and 61 nm for SnO2 and SFO NPs, respectively. In the FTIR spectrum, the OSnO stretching vibration peak arises at (606 & 509 cm?1 for SnO2 NPs) and (613 & 538 cm?1 for SFO NPs). Photoluminescence is used in materials to detect surface defects and impurity levels. The antibacterial activity of the SnO2, SFO NPs, and conventional antibiotics like amoxicillin NPs is effectively inhibited against S. aureus and E. coli bacterial strains. SFO NPs exhibit a higher antibacterial activity as compared to SnO2 and amoxicillin. The anticancer efficacy of increased SFO NPs compared to SnO2 NPs was tested against (MDA-MB-237) human breast cancer cells. These results suggest that Fe ions modified SnO2 NPs could be used in healthcare industrial applications to improve human health. 2022 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.

Mediation of Perceived Innovation Characteristics on ERP Adoption in Industrial Cluster
subject: absorptive capacity; Cluster institutional isomorphic pressures; ERP adoption; industrial cluster; perceived innovation characteristics
description: An industrial cluster, due to its close network of institutions, will experience various pressures that force the industry to have a homogeneous structure, norms, and practices. These pressures can also lead to adoption of innovative technologies. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is perceived as a sophisticated technology and diffuses across the cluster by its innovative characteristics. However, firms in the industrial cluster will have different rate of adoption of technologies due to the varying level of knowledge spillover and a heterogeneous absorptive capacity. This study empirically tests how absorptive capacity mediates the institutional forces and the perceived innovation characteristics towards the ERP adoption in an industrial cluster. Mediation effect and the model validity are tested using SEM technique. The results show that absorptive capacity complements the forces of institutional pressure and the perceived innovation characteristics on ERP adoption. The implications of managing the absorptive capacity for better ERP adoption are discussed. 2016 World Scientific Publishing Company.
