This article discusses the relationship between bone mineral density and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Nugroho et al. (2024) identified factors associated with bone mineral density (BMD) and osteoporosis risk in patients with T2DM. A total of 49 patients with T2DM were involved in this study, and it was found that 61% of them had decreased...Read More

Jeong and Jung (2024) researched the prediction of roads that can pass in narrow alleys using ultrasonic sensors. They focused on developing a system to improve emergency response time in South Korea by utilizing ultrasonic sensors integrated into personal devices to measure the width of narrow alleys. The system aims to overcome the challenges posed...Read More

This article emphasizes the importance of protecting data privacy in the digital age. We highlight the potential damage that hackers can cause, both internal and external to the organization. If hackers manage to steal sensitive data, it can cause financial losses, compromise individual privacy, and damage an organization’s reputation. Research by Jamal et al. (2024)...Read More

The Aquila optimizer (AO) algorithm is a nature-inspired optimization algorithm that can be used to determine the optimal parameters of a proportional integral derivative (PID) controller to control the speed of a DC motor. The hunting behavior of Aquila, a bird of prey in the northern hemisphere inspires the AO algorithm. It has been shown...Read More

Assegie et al. (2022) explored a dataset of heart disease images using machine learning models to predict heart disease. They used recursive feature elimination with cross-validation (RFECV) to analyze the significance of heart disease features on the output generated by the model. The dataset for this experiment was obtained from the University of California Irvine...Read More

The maturity level of digital technology competence (DTC) in vocational education was analyzed by Astuti et al. (2022) to measure the difference between teachers and students in mastering DTC. They conducted research in public and private vocational schools in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, with a total of 233 respondents. Data were collected using a Likert scale questionnaire...Read More

Factors that influence childbirth services in Indonesia include geography, education, and economics. Non-resident women tend to use private health facilities rather than institutionalized health facilities that are more accessible. Putri and Laksono (2022) emphasized the importance of empowering women so that they can take advantage of safe childbirth at health facilities. The challenges faced by...Read More

Synergistic control is applied to a piezoelectric positioning mechanism or piezoelectric actuator (PEA) to improve its stability and performance. This technique is based on the LuGre model. The model works by capturing most of the physical phenomena in the system and then identifying them using particle swarm optimization (PSO). The synergistic control method shows the...Read More

Sunardi et al. (2022) conducted research by implementing augmented reality (AR) in video conference-based learning during the COVID-19 pandemic in higher education. They surveyed 170 students from various majors and regions. They found that performance expectation, hedonic motivation, and habit were the most significant factors influencing the acceptance of AR in video conference-based learning. The...Read More

Greetings, fellow Nawala! May you always be in good health. This is the IAES Nawala from the Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science. Today, we will share news about the role of machine learning. It has been mentioned in the previous post, that machine learning (ML) includes algorithms and techniques that allow computers to learn...Read More
