In this research, an intelligent and cost-efficient system has been proposed to detect the improper sitting posture of a person working at a desk, mostly in offices, using machine learning classification techniques. The current era demands to avoid t...
Vancomycin is a commonly used antimicrobial in hospitals, and therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is required to optimize its efficacy and avoid toxicities. Bayesian models are currently recommended to predict the antibiotic levels. These models, howev...
Some of the most extensive terrestrial biomes today consist of open vegetation, including temperate grasslands and tropical savannas. These biomes originated relatively recently in Earth's history, likely replacing forested habitats in the second hal...
Incident detection is fundamental for freeway management to reduce non-recurrent congestions and secondary incidents. Recently, machine learning technologies have made considerable progress in the incident detection field, but many still face challen...
The growth and implementation of biofuels and bioenergy conversion technologies play an important part in the production of sustainable and renewable energy resources in the upcoming years. Recycling sources from waste could efficiently ease the risk...
