 Abstract

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into Business Analytics (BA) is fundamentally transforming how organizations derive insights and make strategic decisions. This study explores AI's pervasive impact, moving beyond descriptive analytics to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of data processing, and enabling advanced predictive and prescriptive capabilities. Drawing from recent literature, this paper addresses key research gaps, including the challenges in measuring AI's Return on Investment (ROI), ensuring explainability (XAI), navigating ethical considerations and bias, mitigating skill gaps, and overcoming integration complexities with legacy systems. Through a systematic secondary data analysis, this research aims to synthesize current knowledge, identify best practices, and propose actionable strategies for organizations to effectively leverage AI in their business analytics functions, fostering a data-driven culture and addressing potential pitfalls.

 Abstract

This study evaluated and assessed the competencies of Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) personnel and the challenges encountered in managing fire incidents in the National Capital Region (NCR) from 2015 to 2024. Employing a quantitative-correlational research design, the study aimed to establish the relationship between BFP personnel competence and fire incident outcomes--specifically in classifying fire incidents, managing casualties, and containing property damage. Data were gathered using survey questionnaires, key informant interviews, and documentary analysis, with a total of 357 respondents from various. BFP units across the NCR, selected through stratified sampling and Cochran's formula. The findings revealed that BFP personnel were generally competent, earning mean ratings ranging from 4.42 to 4.43. Fire incidents ranged from 12,070 to 19,292 cases annually, with casualties peaking at 448 in 2019 and damages reaching ?13.07 billion in 2023. A significant negative correlation was found between BFP competence and casualties (r = -0.713, p = 0.016), while relationships with fire classifications and property damage were weak and statistically insignificant. The NCR was chosen as the study locale due to its high population density, rapid urbanization, and frequent fire occurrences. The region's urban complexity and infrastructure challenges heightened its vulnerability to fire hazards, making it an appropriate site to assess the performance of fire protection personnel. The study also reviewed existing fire prevention measures such as public awareness campaigns, inspections, drills, and policy enforcement Challenges identified included lack of equipment (86.83%), personnel shortages (81.51%), poor public cooperation (53.78%), inadequate water supply (49.86%), and disorganized urban planning (47.06%). To address these, proposed action plans included equipment procurement (?7.5M), recruitment and training (?5M), awareness campaigns (?750K), hydrant installation (?3M), and urban planning coordination (?1M). The study concluded that while BFP personnel in the NCR demonstrate competence in fire management, significant gaps in logistics, infrastructure, and public engagement remain. It recommends continuous training, strategic resource allocation, infrastructure upgrades, and multi-sectoral collaboration to improve fire safety and governance in the region.

 Abstract

This study explores dystopian and post-apocalyptic literature as profound reflections on human resilience amidst societal collapse, oppression, and trauma. These narratives examine how suffering - whether inflicted by authoritarian regimes, technological control, or catastrophic events - shapes individual identities, responses, and moral development. Central to these works are themes of trauma, pain, and their dual roles as tools of control and catalysts for resistance, illustrating the complex interplay between oppression and agency. By portraying characters' transformative journeys through adversity, the literature underscores the capacity for resilience, growth, and self-discovery, emphasizing that suffering can serve as both a dehumanizing force and a pathway to renewal. These stories critique socio-political structures, reveal the psychological impacts of trauma, and highlight the enduring human quest for meaning. Ultimately, dystopian and post-apocalyptic narratives reflect on the capacity for hope and renewal in the face of chaos, offering insights into the human condition and the transformative potential of suffering.

 Abstract

This study presents a practice-based methodological framework designed to overcome the error in dynamic communication (Generative application paradox) in design ideation and application. The process of creativity is often misunderstood, with many equating it to mere knowledge or technical skill during the time of academic evaluation. The intent of being spontaneous has been generalized as one of the major eyes of creativity. An act of unpredictability causes the mind to think of something very interesting and be able to create something new (an unexplored set of combinations). But creativity comes over the top of this combination, where the elemental particles have transformed themselves to create something brightly ominous. In the field of fashion illustration, creativity is frequently constrained by rigid educational systems that prioritize technique over subconscious, fluid ideation. This paper explores the stages of creative thought, highlighting how patterns, which initially serve as guides, can hinder progress once they become ingrained. The nonexistence of a practical design application method creates a paradox of path. As Trying to find an act of impossible elemental transformation, which is continually repeatable in any sort of creative problem is absurd. The SwaFlow method is proposed as a solution, fostering oscillation between the Executive Control Network (ECN) and Default Mode Network (DMN), which enhances cognitive flexibility and helps break through mental barriers (especially for Avante Garde deigning). By bridging the gap between chaotic and structured thinking, the SwaFlow method encourages designers to move beyond traditional approaches and unlock deeper creative potential. Ultimately, this framework offers a fresh approach to overcoming mental blocks and facilitating innovative, original design solutions in fashion illustration.

 Abstract

A remarkable depiction of a female Greta's difficult battle between her damaged thoughts and her everyday life can be found in the story To Reach Japan. For the stunning portrayal of her inner yearning, identity quest, and desire for a profession was elucidated. Identity crises are common among women in society as they struggle with traditional roles, social expectations, and the need to define themselves. This difficulty may result from their relationships - wife, mother, and daughter - defining them more so than their own identities and goals. A woman's sense of self is shaped by her social roles, cultural standards, and personal experiences; when these factors conflict, it can result in an identity crisis. By examining Greta's condition and achieving her goal with tenacity, this piece aims to demonstrate the primary female character's quest for individuality.

 Abstract

Mushroom cultivation presents considerable nutritional, ecological, and economic advantages, especially in developing countries. However, poor management of agricultural waste raises significant environmental concerns and threatens food security. This study aimed to explore the optimal substrate selection for cultivating Pleurotus spp. The experimental design utilized a completely randomized design (CRD) methodology, incorporating three replicates for each substrate and mushroom species combination. The data collected underwent a thorough descriptive statistical analysis, emphasizing yield comparison and colonization efficiency. The highest yield was observed with rice straw (760 g/kg) for P. ostreatus, followed by wheat straw (780 g) for P. florida and soybean straw (600 g) for P. djamor. This species exhibited clear substrate preferences, with soybean straw consistently identified as one of the most effective options, yielding high outputs and biological efficiency (BE) across various studies. These findings underscore the critical role of substrate selection in optimizing the cultivation of Pleurotus mushrooms

Abstract: The sources of transmitting information to audience at large and staying informed through online platforms is termed as social media. Websites and applications that facilitate communication, community based input, interaction, content sharing and collaboration connotes the Social media platform. It is found instrumental to disseminate information and influence public opinion on a large scale, shaping cultural norms, political discourse and individual and mass behaviours including increase in women's awareness and flexibility of works. It can play a significant role in promoting women's empowerment by raising awareness about gender gap issues and showcasing effectiveness of women in socio economic transition of the society. Women's empowerment through the movement of women Self Help Groups has also been getting impetus through rapid growth of the array of mass media. Women are being empowered by their involvement in and access to Self Help Group; and self-expression as well as decision-making that are exposed and influenced by social media platform. This paper seeks to enquire how the women SHG members use social media platform and to search how they are being benefitted and empowered. On the basis of quantitative and qualitative assessment through a case study in this paper discourses the role of mass media in women empowerment. The findings asserted that women SHG members are getting impetus for social and economic empowerment.
