Cross-Domain Behavioral Pattern Analysis in Real World Intelligent Systems Using Heterogeneous Time Series Datasets

Authors: Raafat Talib Hashim ABSTRACT: In real life intelligence systems, there is a steady flow of various and dynamic time-series data that describe the observed behavior over time. Although predictive or learning-based approaches are frequently employed for the analysis of such data, relatively little work has focused on descriptive behavioral analysis across domains with fundamentally different temporal […]

Two Teachers, One Classroom: Special Education Teachers’ Perceptions of Co-Teaching–Facilitated Small-Group Learning and Its Influence on Learner Confidence and Engagement in Philippine Inclusive Classrooms

Author: Norben Pabondia Agas ABSTRACT: Purpose. The Philippine Inclusive Education Act of 2022 shifted the teaching of disabled students to general education classrooms wherein collaboration between the special education (SNEd) teacher and the general education teacher shall be an ordinary condition of basic education. The benefit of international synthesis, however, is that they highlight that […]

The Formation and Development of Chinese Civilization and Culture

Author: Vadim Rozin ABSTRACT: This article analyzes China’s historical development through the lens of its shifting social forms: dynasty, empire, and state. Drawing on the seminal work *China: A Short Cultural History* by Charles Patrick Fitzgerald, the author questions the universal applicability of the Western concepts of “empire” and “emperor” to Chinese civilization. In the […]

Wasserstein-Regularized Low-Rank Adaptation (OTLoRA): Mitigating Representation Drift and Catastrophic Forgetting in Small Language Models

Authors: Tran Thanh Hoa, Nguyen Minh Sang Abstract: The decentralized deployment of Small Language Models (SLMs) in domain-specific downstream tasks requires continuous parameter adaptation while strictly preserving fundamental linguistic representations. Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) has emerged as the premier Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) paradigm due to its minimal trainable parameter footprint (<1%) and negligible storage overhead. However, […]

Class-Conditional Conformal Prediction with Uncertainty-Triggered Selective Explainability for High Stakes Imbalanced Tabular Decisions

Authors: Pham Manh Trung Nguyen Abstract: Machine learning models deployed in high-stakes clinical and financial decision-making conventionally output uncalibrated point predictions and soft probabilities that exhibit unwarranted overconfidence. When applied to severely imbalanced tabular distributions—such as acute stroke events or rare cardiovascular disorders—traditional classification objectives incentivize models to minimize global risk by predicting the dominant […]

Integrating eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) and Deep Learning in Real-Time Network Intrusion Detection Systems: A Multi-Context Feature Shift Evaluation

Authors: Luong Truong An ABSTRACT: The exponential growth of network data and sophisticated cyber threats requires Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) to possess both high accuracy and clear interpretability. This research proposes a comprehensive IDS framework that combines a hybrid Deep Learning architecture (CNN-LSTM) with the Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) to efficiently identify anomalous behaviors.
