Turning Waste into Value: Sustainable Business with Corn-Based Paper Innovation

In an era where sustainability is at the heart of business operations, eco-friendly packaging is gaining increasing attention. This research explores sustainable business models for alternative packaging, focusing on the case of corn-based paper, an innovation that effectively replaces conventional plastic packaging. The study analyzes key factors that enable businesses using natural raw materials to remain competitive in the market, as well as the growth potential of sustainable packaging compared to plastic-based alternatives. Additionally, it examines the factors influencing consumer behavior in choosing eco-friendly products and evaluates the impact on profitability and social responsibility. This research employs both qualitative and quantitative methods, including case studies of businesses utilizing alternative materials, in-depth interviews with industry experts, and consumer behavior surveys. The findings are expected to provide insights into the business potential of corn-based packaging, strategies for market expansion, and approaches for long-term sustainability. The results of this study will serve as a valuable reference for entrepreneurs seeking to develop green businesses and policymakers aiming to promote sustainable packaging in the market.

VIDEO-BASED EMOTION DETECTION FROM FACIAL EXPRESSIONS WITH ROBUSTNESS TO PARTIAL OCCLUSION

Facial Expression Recognition (FER) has attracted considerable attention in fields such as healthcare, customer service, and behavior analysis. However, challenges remain in developing a robust system capable of adapting to various environments and dynamic situations. In this study, the researchers introduced an Ensemble Learning approach to merge outputs from multiple models trained in specific conditions, allowing the system to retain old information while efficiently learning new data. This technique is advantageous in terms of training time and resource usage, as it reduces the need to retrain a new model entirely when faced with new conditions. Instead, new specialized models can be added to the Ensemble system with minimal resource requirements. The study explores two main approaches to Ensemble Learning: averaging outputs from dedicated models trained under specific scenarios and using Mixture of Experts (MoE), a technique that combines multiple models each specialized in different situations. Experimental results showed that Mixture of Experts (MoE) performs more effectively than the Averaging Ensemble method for emotion classification in all scenarios. The MoE system achieved an average accuracy of 84.41% on the CK+ dataset, 54.20% on Oulu-CASIA, and 61.66% on RAVDESS, surpassing the 71.64%, 44.99%, and 57.60% achieved by Averaging Ensemble in these datasets, respectively. These results demonstrate MoE’s ability to accurately select the model specialized for each specific scenario, enhancing the system’s capacity to handle more complex environments.

The Designing of 3D-Printed Modular Artificial Reef through Design Thinking Framework: A Case study in Koh Khai, Chumphon Province, Thailand

This study explores the design, production, and installation of 3D-printed modular artificial reefs (3DMARs) at Koh Khai, Chumphon Province, Thailand, through a design thinking framework. Collaborating with SCG Co., Ltd. and the Department of Marine and Coastal Resources, the research establishes design criteria and installation methods, utilizing content analysis and qualitative research. Key principles such as modularity, flexibility, environmental sustainability, and usability are identified. The user-centered approach optimizes the 3DMARs for transport and deployment, enabling local community involvement and fostering sustainable practices. The modular design supports scalability, enhancing marine habitats and coral larval settlement. Furthermore, underwater monitoring techniques enable site-specific data collection, allowing for the generation of digital twin models. This research offers a practical framework for marine ecosystem restoration and empowers coastal communities in Thailand and beyond
