By Rupam Bhattacharyya

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijieeb.2025.02.02, Pub. Date: 8 Apr. 2025

There is a growing interest in multilingual tweet analysis through advanced deep learning techniques. Identifying the sentiments of Twitter (currently known as X) users during the IPO (Initial Public Offering) is an important application area in the financial domain. The number of research works in this domain is less. In this paper, we introduced a multilingual dataset entitled as LIC IPO dataset. This work also offers a modified majority voting-based ensemble technique in addition to our proposed dataset. This test-time ensembling technique is driven by fine-tuning of state-of-the-art transformer-based pretrained language models used in multilingual natural language processing (NLP) research. Our technique has been employed to perform sentiment analysis over LIC IPO dataset. Performance evaluation of our technique along with five transformer-based multilingual NLP models over this dataset has been reported in this paper. These five models are namely a) Bernice, b) TwHIN-BERT, c) MuRIL, d) mBERT, and e) XLM-RoBERTa. It is found that our test-time ensemble technique solves this multi-class sentiment classification problem defined over the proposed dataset in a better way as compared to individual transformer models.

By Trisya Septiana Dikpride Despa Fadil Hamdani Deny Budiyanto Reza Andrea

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijieeb.2025.02.03, Pub. Date: 8 Apr. 2025

The University of Lampung is one of the universities mandated to run the Professional Engineer Program (PPI) through the Past Learning Recognition (RPL) pathway. Individuals following this RPL path must have at least five years of experience in the engineering field, where their education, work, and training data from formal and informal institutions can be converted into six courses totaling 24 credits. The RPL data assessment process, if conducted manually, takes a long time and hampers the administrative process in PPI. Therefore, an effective and efficient assessment process is automated through a web-based application by developing an RPL data final grade processing system (E-RAPEL), which addresses common problems in PPI and facilitates grade administration. The system development adopts the Scrum method to enhance product performance, teamwork, and the work environment. Data collection in this study was conducted through interviews and direct observation, and the results indicate that the system facilitates the final assessment process of RPL data using black box testing. The findings show that all test components functioned as expected and reduced the time required for the RPL data final assessment process in PPI.

By Atiqur Rahman Sadia Hossain Samsuddin Ahmed Md. Toukir Ahmed

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijieeb.2025.02.06, Pub. Date: 8 Apr. 2025

Optimizing energy management for household appliances is essential for maximizing domestic energy utilization and enabling preventive maintenance. Recent studies indicate that traditional forecasting approaches frequently lack the necessary accuracy and real-time learning capabilities required for effective management of household energy. This study demonstrates the implementation of a comprehensive strategy that integrates Internet of Things (IoT) data, machine learning (ML), and explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) to improve the accuracy and interpretability of predicting energy usage in residential buildings. Our research focuses on the rising issues faced by IoT-based smart systems, partic- ularly the deficiencies in the performance of current solutions. Therefore, as compared to the other 17 models that were examined, polynomial regression demonstrated outstanding performance. Our solution utilizes a non-intrusive sensor to collect data without disrupting its operation. Real-time data collecting is achieved through a Flask-based web page with Ngrok for external access.The efficacy of the proposed system was assessed using many metrics, yielding highly satisfac- tory results: the root mean square error (RMSE) was 0.03, the mean absolute error (MAE) was 0.02, the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) was 0.04, and the coefficient of determination (R²) was 0.9989. However, modern cutting-edge methods still face considerable hurdles when it comes to interpretability. In order to tackle these problems, we include XAI techniques such as SHAP and LIME. Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) improves the interpretability of the model by elucidating the impact of various variables on energy consumption forecasts. Not only does this increase the effectiveness of the model, but it also promotes comprehension of the data and enables them to identify the elements that influence home energy usage.

Data Deduplication-based Efficient Cloud Optimisation Technique: Optimizing Cloud Storage through Data Deduplication

By Ranga Kavitha Mahaboob Sharief Shaik Narala Swarnalatha M. Pujitha Syed Asadullah Hussaini Samiullah Khan Shamsher Ali

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijieeb.2025.02.07, Pub. Date: 8 Apr. 2025

Effective storage management is crucial for cloud computing systems' speed and cost, given data's exponential increase. The significance of this issue has increased as the amount of data continues to increase at a disturbing pace. The act of detecting and removing duplicate data can enhance storage utilisation and system efficiency. Using less storage capacity reduces data transmission costs and enhances cloud infrastructure scalability. The use of deduplication techniques on a wide scale, on the other hand, presents a number of important obstacles. Security issues, delays in deduplication, and maintaining data integrity are all examples of difficulties that fall under this classification.  
This paper introduces a revolutionary method called Data Deduplication-based Efficient Cloud Optimisation Technique (DD-ECOT). Optimising storage processes and enhancing performance in cloud-based systems is its intended goal. DD-ECOT combines advanced pattern recognition with chunking to increase storage efficiency at minimal cost. It protects data during deduplication with secure hash-based indexing. Parallel processing and scalable design decrease latency, making it adaptable enough for vast, ever-changing cloud setups.The DD-ECOT system avoids these problems through employing a secure hash-based indexing method to keep data intact and by using parallel processing to speed up deduplication without impacting system performance. Enterprise cloud storage systems, disaster recovery solutions, and large-scale data management environments are some of the usage cases for DD-ECOT. Analysis of simulations shows that the suggested solution outperforms conventional deduplication techniques in terms of storage efficiency, data retrieval speed, and overall system performance. The findings suggest that DD-ECOT has the ability to improve cloud service delivery while cutting operational costs. A simulation reveals that the proposed DD-ECOT framework outperforms existing deduplication methods. DD-ECOT boosts storage efficiency by 92.8% by reducing duplicate data. It reduces latency by 97.2% using parallel processing and sophisticated deduplication. Additionally, secure hash-based indexing methods improve data integrity to 98.1%. Optimized bandwidth usage of 95.7% makes data transfer efficient. These improvements suggest DD-ECOT may save operational costs, optimize storage, and beat current deduplication methods.

By Vilianty Rafida Ita Arfyanti Irfan Hidayat

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijieeb.2022.04.01, Pub. Date: 8 Aug. 2022

Widya Collection Store is a business that provides sports clothing, as well as one of the producers in the Samarinda area. Sales management is still not optimal because it still uses paper notes and is still being written which makes it easy for errors to occur in writing prices, quantities of goods and total prices so that it takes a long time to process transactions, both from payment in full or receivables. In addition, managing stock of goods is also more difficult because it is not recorded in the database. Therefore, a Sales Management application was made at the Web-Based Widya Collection Store to process item data, sales transactions, make complete notes and reports and make the transaction process faster. The long-term goal to be achieved is that the stock management process has been recorded in order to know the stock that must be ordered from the supplier. In addition, to simplify and expedite activities in searching for sales transaction data if one day it is needed. In this study, the method used to build a Sales Management Application at a Web-Based Widya Collection Store is the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) development stage which consists of needs analysis, system design, and implementation.

A Review on Data Analytics for Supply Chain Management: A Case study

By Anitha P Malini M. Patil

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijieeb.2018.05.05, Pub. Date: 8 Sep. 2018

The present study bridges the gap between the two intersecting domains, data science and supply chain management. The data can be analyzed for inventory management, forecasting and prediction, which is in the form of reports, queries and forecasts. Because of the price, weather patterns, economic volatility and complex nature of business, the forecasts may not be accurate. This has resulted in the growth of Supply chain analytics. It is the application of qualitative and quantitative methods to solve relevant problems and to predict the outcomes by considering quality of data. The issues like increased collaboration between companies, customers, retailers and governmental organizations, companies are adopting Big Data solutions. Big Data applications can be linked for Supply Chain Management across the fields like procurement, transportation, warehouse operations, marketing and also for smart logistics. As supply chain networks becoming vast, more complex and driven by demands for more exacting service levels, the type of data that is managed and analyzed also becomes more complex. The present work aims at providing an overview of adoption of capabilities of Data Analytics as part of a “next generation” architecture by developing a linear regression model on a sales-data. The paper also covers the survey of how big data techniques can be used for storage, processing, managing, interpretation and visualization of data in the field of Supply chain.
