The Vulnerability of the Construction Ergonomics to Covid-19 and Its Probability Impact in Combating the Virus

Currently, the world encounters the outbreak of an unprecedented epidemic named novel coronavirus COVID -19. World Health Organization (WHO) advises maintaining social distancing, preserving personal hygiene, and staying informed with the latest guidelines. WHO also reports the patients with robust immunity can combat the virus. However, the workers in the construction industry work and live in a crowded and non-hygiene environment. Moreover, they are characterized by illiteracy, a dearth of awareness, and chronic health problems that prove weak immunity. Therefore, this study aims to find the relationship between the virus and the prevailing conditions and the environment of the construction industry, under focus, and study so that the construction industry is not a vulnerability gap that may exacerbate the crisis. An extensive literature exploration for the latest research deals with coronavirus, the construction industry ergonomics, and its relevant diseases. This study makes robust alerts to motivate the governments, organizations, and individuals to collaborate to find solutions to close the gap between the current situation in the construction of ergonomics and the required precaution to avoid the outbreak of the virus. This study makes a crucial and novel contribution by paving the way for providing solutions to save humanity worldwide. The management system should review the conventional risk assessment procedures, and developed criteria must be introduced and become an everyday practice of all construction projects. This will help identify the gaps within the safety procedures associated with the COVID – 19 protection aspects. This article also introduces a framework in this regard.

The static model of inventory management without a deficit with Neutrosophic logic

In this paper, we present an expansion of one of the well-known classical inventory management models, which is the static model of inventory management without a deficit and for a single substance, based on the neutrosophic logic, where we provide through this study a basis for dealing with all data, whether specific or undefined in the field of inventory management, as it provides  safe environment to manage inventory without running into deficit , and give us an approximate ideal volume of inventory. Since the ideal size is affected by the rate of demand for inventory, we present in this paper a study of the rate of demand for inventory when it is not precisely defined, and we find that the  indeterminate values ​​of the demand rate cannot be ignored, because they actually affect determining the ideal size of inventory and calculating its costs, thus affecting on the efficiency of the facility and achieve great profits for it.

Data with Turiyam Set for Fourth Dimension Quantum Information Processing

Recently, neutrosophic set is considered as one of the prominent tool to deal with human cognition in three-way fuzzy space. This set has given a way to characterize the human cognition in conscious, unconscious, or indeterminate state. The problem arises when a person realizes all of three states independently as silent mode. It is observed at voting time of Indian democratic system where some people vote in a favor of a party, do not vote in favor of a party, being absent and choose none of the above. The last consciousness is turiyam state which is independent from all. It also observed at time of feedback or rating given by an expert towards which used to based on internal communication rather than true, false and uncertain activity. The internal communication which prvodies the opinion towards rating about any organization or employee is called as Turiya or Fourth dimension cognition. This paper try to introduce this fourth dimension of human cognitions as a new set called as Turiyam set with its graphical visualization via an illustrative example.

Customer Churn Prediction using Sandpiper Optimization with Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit for Business Intelligence

Recent innovation in business intelligence (BI) assists companies to stay successful and competitive with the increasing business trend. Businesses have started to examine the succeeding level of data analytics and BI solution. At the same time, Customer Churn Prediction (CCP) is an essential procedure involved in business decision making that effectually determines the churn of clients and performs adequate processes to retain customers. With this motivation, this paper presents a sandpiper optimization with the bidirectional gated recurrent unit (SPO-BiGRU) for CCP on BI applications. The SPO-BiGRU model aims for determining the occurrence of customers into churners or non-churner. In addition, the SPO-BiGRU technique involves pre-processing, classification, and hyperparameter optimization. Followed by, the BiGRU model is applied to perform the predictive process. At last, the SPO algorithm is applied to optimally adjust the hyperparameters involved in the BiGRU model. For validating the enhanced performance of the SPO-BiGRU method, a wide range of simulations take place and the results are inspected under varying aspects. The experimental results portrayed the supremacy of the SPO-BiGRU technique over the recent state of art approaches.

Neutrsophic Health Analysis in Times of COVID-19

The current COVID-19 pandemic represents a danger for which efforts have been joined to find an effective treatment. This pandemic has evolved so quickly that new data emerge daily on the number of sick and fatal cases. As of September 2021, more than 180 countries with positive COVID-19 cases have been notified to the World Health Organization, including 228,807,631 confirmed cases, including 4,697,099 deaths. So far, the Americas region is the most affected with a total of 88,207,746 confirmed cases, and during this period, Ecuador has reported 246 new infections on average each day, for a total of 507,003 infections and 32,661 deaths. To date, dissimilar methods and treatments have been used to mitigate its effects. However, no effective treatment option has been found against it, generating uncertainty, social panic, and impacts on the population's mental health as a result of the fear of infection and death. That is why the present work focuses on analyzing and determining the alternatives for the control of detection of the pandemic, through the processing of the neutrosophic TOPSIS method. It offers many benefits in the analysis of neutralities to the study of indeterminacies in the field of Medicine. The processing using neutrosophic methods allowed obtaining the best alternative to fight against COVID-19.

Vocal Analysis and Sentiment Discernment using AI

One of the major factors for personal development and growth is understanding human emotions, and therefore it plays an important role in imitating human intelligence. Vocal and Sentiment analysis are the major focus points for advancement in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Sentiment analysis provides major help to data analysts of big enterprises to measure public opinion, conducting market research, understanding customers experience and viewing brand and product reputation. Emotion recognition provides an opportunity to grasp the general people’s sentiments about social events, marketing strategies, political views and product liking. In this paper, we have used various AI models on a variety of audio datasets to recognise and analyse the sentiments of the speaker. Our dataset includes some audio songs sung by some singers and some audio clips of few actors. We trained CNN and LSTM models to analyse our dataset and predict their accuracy. The ever-growing need of sentiment analysis coincides greatly with the extension of social media such as forum discussions, social networks like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and many other similar platforms.
