Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutomobile Spray Paint Dust and Human Health: A Multi-Site Environmental Health Risk Assessment of Carcinogenic and Non-Carcinogenic Effects in South-Eastern NigeriaAdindu Ihuoma Blossom, Ubouh Emmanuel Attah, Obasi Kalu Omokorie, Raimi Morufu OlalekanInformal automobile spray-painting operations release metal-laden dust, posing occupational and residential health risks. Seasonal variations, receptor-specific exposure, and metal composition influence non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic hazards, yet data from South-Eastern Nigeria remain limited. This study quantified heavy-metal exposure in automobile spray-paint dust, assessed receptor-specific non-carcinogenic (HI) and carcinogenic (ILCR) risks, examined seasonal and metal-specific trends, and evaluated source attribution to inform … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 22 Jun 2026 · 1,563 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementation and Performance Evaluation of YOLOv8 for Wheat Fungal Disease DetectionShivani Sood, Shallu Duggal, Monika Sethi et al.Among the many difficulties in producing wheat, a vital food source for the world, there are biotic variables like fungal diseases, which drastically lower crop output. Around the world, biotrophic fungi particularly, leaf rust, powdery mildew, and yellow rusts-have become a constant threat to wheat production. Traditional methods of identification and mitigation are labor-intensive, slow, and imprecise, limiting therefore early … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 2 May 2026 · 1,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSmart and Secure Anomaly Detection in IoT Using Quantum Inspired Kernel Ensemble LearningAbrar M. AlajlanThe exponential growth of the Internet of Things networks has greatly increased the attack surface for cyber threats, necessitating the use of strong and perceptive anomaly detection systems. Traditional intrusion detection systems often struggle with high false alarm rates, limited generalization, and inefficiency in processing high-dimensional heterogeneous IoT data. To address this issue, a novel Hybrid Quantum-Enhanced Kernel Ensemble Learning … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 12 Mar 2026 · 1,769 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficiency and Sustainability of Alternative Protein Sources for Livestock Production in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Systematic Review and Meta-AnalysisOlusegun Oyebade Ikusika, Bulo Luvuyo, Jaja Ishmeal FestusSub-Saharan Africa (SSA) faces growing challenges in sustainable livestock production due to high costs and limited availability of conventional protein sources such as soybean meal and fishmeal. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the nutritional efficiency and sustainability of locally available alternative protein sources for livestock feed in SSA. Following PRISMA guidelines, systematic searches were conducted across five databases (PubMed, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 19 Feb 2026 · 1,849 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Analysis of Five Decomposition Techniques for Monthly Rainfall Time Series from 1991 to 2020 in Guinea (West Africa)Noukpo Médard Agbazo, Oumar Keita, Alpha Oumar Baldé et al.The selection of an optimal time series decomposition’ technique is crucial for enhancing rainfall prediction by using sophisticated methods as deep learning hybrid approaches. This study evaluates the effectiveness of five times series decomposition techniques in analyzing monthly rainfall datasets across Guinea geographical regions (Lower-Guinea (Boké, Conakry, Kindia), Middle-Guinea (Labé, Mamou), Upper-Guinea (Faranah, Kankan) and Forest-Guinea (Nzérékoré)) and identifies the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 27 Jan 2026 · 3,047 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeavy Metals Content of the Grassland Soil around Katima Mulilo Municipal Solid Wastes Dumpsite, NamibiaJ. Abah, P. Mashebe, S.A. OnjefuThe effects of open wastes dumpsites on the immediate vicinity continue to generate safety concern. This study determined the levels of lead, chromium, cadmium, arsenic, nickel, cobalt, copper and manganese in soil samples collected at two depths: 0-15 and 15-30 cm within and around Katima Mulilo municipal solid wastes dumpsite and a control site. The samples were digested according to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 18 Mar 2017 · 7,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimizing Mobile Edge Computing Efficiency through Multidimensional Generative Adversarial NetworkAnitha Premkumar, Sowmya Vemagal Lakshminarayana, Shankar Rajagopal et al.Big data Processing and the IoT have recently gained popularity as study topics in MEC and thorough research is sought for well-informed decisions. Mobile edge equipment, such as base stations, routers, and edge servers, usually have limited processing capabilities compared to traditional data centers. According to this perspective, this research constructs MEC using Intelligent Outlier Detection with a Multidimensional Generative … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 18 Jan 2025 · 4,692 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Heavy Metals in Gadus morhua and the Associated Cancer RisksKayode Idowu Ogungbemi, Margaret Bose Adedokun, Josephine Nneamaka Onyeka-UbakaGadus morhua is a good protein source but some methods of its preservation can be a source of heavy metals contamination. Gadus morhua samples were collected from nine major markets for the identification and quantification of heavy metals. An Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS) from an analytical and consultancy laboratory in the Department of Soil Resources Management, University of Ibadan was … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2025 · 5,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBone Microarchitecture by Dentistry Digital X-Ray (BµA-DDX) Software: A Pilot Study of the Analysis of Bone Density using Digital Dental X-RaysAdriane Yaeko Togashi, Adair Santa Catarina, Lucas Renato Piana Batistussi, Guilherme CoelhoThe Bone Microarchitecture by Dentistry Digital X-Ray (BµA-DDX) software was designed to determine jaw bone quality using digital dental X-rays. In order to identify patients with a suspicion of low bone density, a system was developed to evaluate bone microarchitecture through the analysis of samples collected in digital panoramic X-rays. The samples were collectedat two sites of the mandible: alveolar … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 23 Feb 2016 · 7,474 accessesView PDFCite
