Volume 3, Issue 4 - 4 Articles

This issue presents four innovative studies that tackle diverse challenges across multiple domains. One paper introduces a novel modular approach for precise estimation of elbow joint motion, with potential applications in human-machine interfaces. Another explores the efficacy of e-assessment platforms, integrated with AI-powered tools, in enhancing student learning experiences and performance. A comprehensive investigation delves into the factors influencing riverbank slope stability along the Yellow River in China, underscoring the crucial role of vegetation. Additionally, a computational model is developed to identify comorbidities associated with COVID-19, offering prospects for improved patient management strategies. These interdisciplinary researches exemplify the transformative potential of cutting-edge methodologies and technological integration, advancing scientific understanding and practical solutions across biomechanics, education, environmental science, and healthcare.

Estimation of Elbow Joint Movement Using ANN-Based Softmax Classifier
by Abdullah Y. Al-Maliki, Kamran Iqbal and Gannon White
Journal of Engineering Research and Sciences, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page # 1-9, 2024; DOI: 10.55708/js0304001
Abstract: Estimating the natural voluntary movement of human joints in its entirety is a challenging problem especially when high accuracy is desired. In this paper, we build a modular estimator to estimate the elbow joint motion including angular displacement and direction. Being modular, this estimator can be scaled for application to other joints. We collected surface… Read More

Comprehensive E-learning of Mathematics using the Halomda Platform enhanced with AI tools
by Philip Slobodsky and Mariana Durcheva
Journal of Engineering Research and Sciences, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page # 10-19, 2024; DOI: 10.55708/js0304002
Abstract: The method of assessment affects on learning by determining how students manage their time and prioritize subjects. It is widely accepted that students may demonstrate different skills in different assessment formats. The authors demonstrated how e-assessment through the Halomda educational platform can not only improve student learning outcomes, but also enrich their learning experiences. In… Read More

Computational and Bioinformatics Approaches for Identifying Comorbidities of COVID-19 Using Transcriptomic Data
by Shudeb Babu Sen Omit, Md Mohiuddin, Salma Akhter, Md. Hasan Imam, A. K. M. Mostofa Kamal Habib, Syed Mohammad Meraz Hossain and Nitun Kumar Podder
Journal of Engineering Research and Sciences, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page # 32-41, 2024; DOI: 10.55708/js0304004
Abstract: Comorbidity is the co-existence of one or more diseases that occur concurrently or after the primary disease. Patients may have developed comorbidities for COVID-19 that cause harm to the patient’s organs. Besides, patients with existing comorbidities are at high risk, since mortality rates are strongly influenced by comorbidities or former health conditions. Therefore, we developed… Read More
