This study analyzed the impact of land-use/land-cover change on land surface temperature in Adama Zuria Woreda, Ethiopia between 1989-2016 using remote sensing and GIS techniques. Landsat images from 1989, 1999 and 2016 were classified to map land-use/land-cover and calculate normalized difference vegetation index and land surface temperature. Results showed expansion of settlement and cropland areas and decrease of grassland and forest lands. Land surface temperature increased over time, with higher temperatures associated with urban and cropland areas compared to vegetated areas. The findings indicate land-use/land-cover change influenced local climate by increasing land surface temperature in the study area.

There are three main reasons to monitor dams: safety, comparing actual performance to predictions, and improving general knowledge of dam behavior. Instrumentation provides monitoring for these reasons and helps validate design assumptions. The primary functions of instrumentation are construction control, post-construction performance assessment, service performance/surveillance, and research. Key parameters monitored are seepage, settlement, deformation, pore pressure, and stress. Instrument types and locations vary depending on the dam type and objectives. Regular surveillance is also needed to detect issues and schedule maintenance. A balanced instrumentation and monitoring plan is developed by defining objectives and appropriate observations at critical locations over time.

Dams are classified based on their purpose, materials used, and hydraulic design. The main types are embankment dams made of earth or rock, and concrete dams including gravity, buttress, and arch dams. Embankment dams use local natural materials and have lower foundation requirements but greater risks of overtopping. Concrete dams can better withstand overtopping but require stronger foundations and transportation of materials. Both dam types have advantages and disadvantages depending on the site conditions and purposes.

precisely delineate tumor boundaries from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
scans holds profound implications for diagnosis. This study presents an ensemble convolutional neural network (CNN) with transfer learning, integrating
the state-of-the-art Deeplabv3+ architecture with the ResNet18 backbone. The
model is rigorously trained and evaluated, exhibiting remarkable performance
metrics, including an impressive global accuracy of 99.286%, a high-class accuracy of 82.191%, a mean intersection over union (IoU) of 79.900%, a weighted
IoU of 98.620%, and a Boundary F1 (BF) score of 83.303%. Notably, a detailed comparative analysis with existing methods showcases the superiority of
our proposed model. These findings underscore the model’s competence in precise brain tumor localization, underscoring its potential to revolutionize medical
image analysis and enhance healthcare outcomes. This research paves the way
for future exploration and optimization of advanced CNN models in medical
imaging, emphasizing addressing false positives and resource efficiency.

Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoring
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
