International Transactions in Operational Research, Год журнала: 2024, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Июль 31, 2024

Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) as a disruptive technology is not new. However, its recent evolution, engineered by technological transformation, big data analytics, and quantum computing, produces conversational generative AI (CGAI/GenAI) human‐like chatbots that disrupt conventional operations methods in different fields. This study investigates the scientific landscape of CGAI human–chatbot interaction/collaboration evaluates use cases, benefits, challenges, policy implications for multidisciplinary education allied industry operations. The publications trend showed just 4% ( n = 75) occurred during 2006–2018, while 2019–2023 experienced astronomical growth 1763 or 96%). prominent cases (e.g., ChatGPT) teaching, learning, research activities computer science (multidisciplinary AI; 32%), medical/healthcare (17%), engineering (7%), business fields (6%). intellectual structure shows strong collaboration among eminent sources business, information systems, other areas. thematic highlights including improved user experience human–computer interaction, programs/code generation, systems creation. Widespread usefulness teachers, researchers, learners includes syllabi/course content testing aids, academic writing. concerns about abuse misuse (plagiarism, integrity, privacy violations) issues misinformation, danger self‐diagnoses, patient applications are prominent. Formulating strategies policies to address potential challenges teaching/learning practice priorities. Developing discipline‐based automatic detection GenAI contents check proposed. In operational/operations areas, proper CGAI/GenAI integration with modeling decision support requires further studies.

A Comparative Analysis of Virtual Education Technology, E-Learning Systems Research Advances, and Digital Divide in the Global South

Informatics, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 11(3), С. 53 - 53

Опубликована: Июль 23, 2024

This pioneering study evaluates the digital divide and advances in virtual education (VE) e-learning research Global South Countries (GSCs). Using metadata from bibliographic World Bank data on development (R&D), we conduct quantitative bibliometric performance analyses evaluate connection between R&D expenditures VE/e-learning GSCs. The results show that ‘East Asia Pacific’ (EAP) spent significantly more (R&D) achieved highest scientific literature publication (SLP), with significant impacts. Other GSCs’ expenditure was flat until 2020 (during COVID-19), when funding increased, achieving a corresponding 42% rise SLPs. About 67% of ‘Arab States’ (AS) SLPs 60% citation impact came produced global north other GSCs regions, indicating high dependence. Also, 51% high-impact were ‘Multiple Country Publications’, mainly non-GSC institutions, collaboration impact. EAP, AS, ‘South Asia’ (SA) regions experienced lower disparity. In contrast, less developed countries (LDCs), including ‘Sub-Sahara Africa’, ‘Latin America Caribbean’, ‘Europe (Eastern) Central Asia’, showed few dominant higher divides. We advocate for increased educational to enhance innovative GSCs, especially LDCs.

Digital Virtual Simulation for Cultural Clothing Restoration: Case Study of Tang Dynasty Mural ‘Diplomatic Envoys’ from Crown Prince Zhang Huai’s Tomb

Journal of theoretical and applied electronic commerce research, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 19(2), С. 1358 - 1391

Опубликована: Июнь 3, 2024

The advent of 3D virtual presentation technology for clothing has led to the gradual popularisation digital in modern fashion industry. However, there remains a gap between application this and integration cultural attributes field communication traditional clothing. Consequently, objective paper is propose establishment fusion system integrating archaeological research on culture with emerging technology. This draws inspiration from replicability easy dissemination products combine archaeology aim provide ideas diversity heritage. object Diplomatic Envoys, Chinese mural painting Tang Dynasty that depicts friendly exchanges countries. divided into two stages. A CLO3D software-based restoration test was conducted reproduce costumes officials foreign envoys depicted mural. FAHP model employed verify accuracy results. experiment demonstrated digitally reconstructed exhibited high degree similarity unearthed figure object. Furthermore, result passed credibility verification, resulting ‘credible’ outcome. simulation methods offers key advantages. Firstly, comparison methods, enables rapid assessment effect, thereby reducing likelihood secondary damage relics due manual errors. Secondly, benefits facilitate convenient storage, replication, data information. Data can not only be extended online exhibition halls but also game animation, production, other fields purposes creative redesign information dissemination. these penetrate education industry disseminate public through all-round display models explanations.

An Analysis of Occupational Hazards Based on the Physical Ergonomics Dimension to Improve the Occupational Health of Agricultural Workers: The Case in Mayo Valley, Mexico

Safety, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 10(3), С. 61 - 61

Опубликована: Июль 8, 2024

The occupational health and safety of agricultural workers is a topic that has direct impact on the sector worldwide. For this reason, investigations into ergonomic factors are relevant to workers. In study, nine variables physical–ergonomic dimension were analyzed determine which represent risks for in Mayo Valley, Mexico. A sample 200 people was considered. separated by gender divided groups according age. closed-ended survey developed validated assess physical ergonomics using five-level Likert scale. Using Principal Component Analysis, it found there affect male more than female (the risk carrying heavy objects, PE3, performing repetitive movements, PE4). It also certain not perceived as hazardous inappropriate materials, PE9). addition, various research findings discussed implications recommendations improving
