Enhancing the efficiency of in-ear monitors for hearing-impaired musicians

Abstract

Some musicians are hearing impaired, some have finished their careers, but some continue to work, and it is much harder for them to be deaf than for musicians who are not. Some use hearing aids in their daily lives and use in-ear monitors in their live performances, which seem normal, but in their in-ears they only hear the metronome and drums. How can we improve the performance of in-ear monitors to near normal?

Objective

นักดนตรีบางคนที่พิการทางการได้ยิน บางคนจบอาชีพการงาน แต่บางคนยังคงทำงานต่อไปโดยที่หูหนวกนั้นยากกว่านักดนตรีปกติมาก บางคนใช้เครื่องช่วยฟังในชีวิตประจำวันและใช้เครื่องช่วยฟังแบบอินเอียร์ในการแสดง สดซึ่งดูเหมือนปกติ แต่ในอินเอียร์ของพวกเขา ได้ยินเพียงเครื่องเมตรอนอมและกลองเท่านั้น ถ้าพวกเขาสามารถใช้อินเอียร์มอนิเตอร์ในการทำงานได้แต่ยังไม่สามารถทำได้อย่างเต็มประสิทธิภำพเกิดจากอะไรและแก้ไขอย่างไร

Development of Credit Card Customer Churn Prediction Model

This report is part of applying the knowledge gained from studying machine learning models and methods for developing a predictive model to identify customers likely to cancel their credit card services with a bank. The project was carried out during an internship at a financial institution, where the creator developed a model to predict customers likely to churn from their credit card services using real customer data through the organization's system. The focus was on building a model that can accurately predict customer churn by selecting features that are appropriate for the prediction model and the unique characteristics of the credit card industry data to ensure the highest possible accuracy and efficiency. This report also covers the integration of the model into the development of a website, which allows related departments to conveniently use the prediction model. Users can upload data for prediction and receive model results instantly. In addition, a dashboard has been created to present insights from the model's predictions, such as identifying high-risk customers likely to cancel services, as well as other important analytical information for strategic decision-making. This will help support more efficient marketing planning and customer retention efforts within the organization.

Characteristics and nutrition values of cereal bar fortified with Asian sea bass bone bio-calcium powder.

Bio-calcium powders were extracted from Asian sea bass bone by heat-treated alkaline with fat removal and bleaching supplementary method. Cereal bars (CBs) were fortified with produced bio-calcium at 3 levels: (1) increased calcium (IS-Ca; calcium ≥10% Thai RDI), (2) good source of calcium (GS-Ca; calcium ≥15% Thai RDI), and (3) high calcium (H-Ca; calcium ≥30% Thai RDI) which were consistent with the notification of the Ministry of Public Health, Thailand: No. 445; Nutrition claim issued in B.E. 2023. Moisture content, water activity, color, calcium content and FTIR analysis of bio-calcium powders were measured. Dimension, color, water activity, pH and texture of fortified CBs were determined. Produced bio-calcium could be classified as a dried food with light yellow-white color. Calcium contents in bio-calcium powder was 23.4% (w/w). Dimension, weight and color except b* and ΔE* values of fortified CBs were not different (P > 0.05) from those of the control. Fortifying of bio-calcium resulted in harder texture CBs. An increase of fortified bio-calcium amounts decreased carbohydrate and fat but increased of protein, ash and calcium in the fortified CBs. Shelf life of CBs was to be shorten by fortification of bio-calcium powder because of the increment of moisture, water activity and pH. Yield of bio-calcium production was 40.30%. Production cost of bio-calcium was approximately 7,416 Bth/kg while cost of fortified CBs increased almost 2-3 times compared to the control. Calcium contents in IS-Ca (921.12 mg/100g), GS-Ca (1,287.10 mg/100g) and H-Ca (2,639.70 mg/100g) cereal bars could be claimed as increased calcium, good source of calcium and high calcium, respectively. In conclusion, production of cereal bar fortified with Asian sea bass bone bio-calcium powder as a fortified food was possible. However, checking the remained hazardous reagents in bio-calcium powder must be carried out before using in food products and analysis of calcium bioavailability, sensory acceptance and shelf life of the developed products should be determined in further studies.

DESIGNING AND DEVELOPING INNOVATIONS TO ENHANCE THE EFFICIENCY OF ANALYZING QUALITY OF SERVICE MONITORING FOR MOBILE PHONE SERVICES

Under The National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC), the Telecommunication Enforcement Bureau collects a lot of data on service quality by monitoring and controlling the quality of telecommunications services, mainly by assessing mobile network infrastructure. The NBTC used Microsoft Excel for data analysis but became ineffective and slow. We used Python programming for preparation, analysis, and data processing to address this. Raw data was obtained from the Syberiz program in CSV format, processed in Python, and displayed on a dashboard. The dashboard, developed using Power BI, meets NBTC's telecommunications quality standards. It features maps, test results, and graphical representations. This method enhances the dashboard's appearance and usability and speeds up data processing and visualization compared to Microsoft Excel. This project is primarily designed to help the Telecommunication Enforcement Bureau's operations by making data processing and display for telecommunications quality monitoring faster, more effective, and easier to use.
