Microbiological Quality of Bread Incorporated with Selected Bread Improvers

Authors: Ukoro, F.O, Ibuh, S.G., Atondo, M.V., Ortese, V.

Science Laboratory Technology
Paper ID: CRSIJ26000170
Pages: 648-661

Abstract:

Bread is widely consumed as a staple food, but its high moisture and nutrient content make it susceptible to microbial contamination and spoilage. This study evaluated the microbiological properties of bread incorporated with selected bread improvers. In order to determine the influence of these imp... Read more
Improved Electric Eel Foraging Optimization-Based Convolutional Neural Network for Two-Level CAPTCHA Authentication Using Facial Emotion Recognition

Authors: Adeyemi, Biliqees Temitope, Makinde, Oladayo Ezekiel, Ojo, Olufemi Samuel

Computer Sciences
Paper ID: CRSIJ26000180
Pages: 312-325

Abstract:

This study describes an Improved Electric Eel Foraging Optimization-Based Convolutional Neural Network (IEEFO-CNN) for two-level CAPTCHA validation based on facial expression recognition. The traditional CAPTCHAs are no longer resistant to the attacks of artificial intelligence, so the need for a mo... Read more
Generative AI-Driven Modeling of Household Fuel Transitions and Climate Adaptation in Abakaliki, Nigeria

Authors: Henry Chibueze Ivo

Household Fuel Transitions
Paper ID: CRSIJ26000189
Pages: 642-647

Abstract:

Household biomass fuel dependence remains a critical intersection of energy poverty, public health, and climate vulnerability in sub-Saharan Africa. This study develops and applies a generative AI-driven modelling framework to simulate household fuel transition dynamics and generate climate adaptati... Read more
Robust Multimodal Authentication Under Adverse Conditions: An Optimised Neural Fusion Model Integrating Fingerprint, Facial and OCR Verification

Authors: Adeyemi, Biliqees Temitope, Ipeayeda Funmilola W., Oyediran Mayowa O.

Computer Sciences
Paper ID: CRSIJ26000204
Pages: 503-518

Abstract:

With the advent of learning moving to the digital realm, there is an increased threat of security at educational institutions, necessitating a more efficient method beyond just passwords. Unimodal biometric systems offer an alternative but inherit a single point of failure that degrades under advers... Read more
Determination of Growth Rates on Collisional Dust-Ion Acoustic Instability in Unmagnetized Dusty Plasmas

Authors: Umo, Emem E. A., Akpabio, Louis E., Antia, Akaninyene D.

Plasma Physics
Paper ID: CRSIJ26000239
Pages: 165-177

Abstract:

In this study, the determination of growth rates on collisional dust-ion acoustic instability in un-magnetized plasmas in the presence of applied zero-order electric field E_0 was examined. Using the continuity and momentum equations, supplemented by the charge neutrality condition, the dispersion r... Read more
Impact of Data Preprocessing and Missing-Value Handling on Machine Learning-Based Heart Disease Prediction

Authors: Rebecca Nneka Oguzor, Dr. Chinagolum Ituma, Favour Ngozi Okoro

Data Science Machine Learning Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare omputational Healthcare
Paper ID: CRSIJ26000336
Pages: 607-627

Abstract:

The reliability of machine learning-based heart disease prediction depends not only on the choice of predictive models but also on the quality and preparation of the underlying clinical data. Missing values, inconsistent variable representations, and differences in feature scales can affect the reli... Read more
The Gbenga Gideon Integral Transform and Its Application to Third-Order Ordinary Differential Equations

Authors: G. G. Oyetoro, O. A. Afolabi, A. S. Oyefusi, D. A. Abraham

Mathematics
Paper ID: CRSIJ26000344
Pages: 33-49

Abstract:

This study presents a four-parameter generalization of the Laplace transform, here called the Gbenga Gideon (G.G.) integral transform (GGIT), with kernel pv^m 〖{e〗^(-qv^w t)}, and develops its operational calculus for the solution of third-order ordinary differential equations. Elementary transform... Read more
Effects of Selected Bread Improver on the Physicochemical and Proximate property of Wheat-Cassava Composite Bread

Authors: Ukoro Frank Onyeka, Tyotom, Destiny Dooshima, Abubakar Salisu Ahmed, Ortese Vershima

Laboratory Technology
Paper ID: CRSIJ26000396
Pages: 424-432

Abstract:

Wheat flour with cassava flour substitution was done which weakens the continuous gluten network needed for gas retention and loaf development. This study examined the incorporation of guar gum, ascorbic acid, Panok® and STK Royal as improvers in bread prepared from a 90:10 wheat-cassava composite f... Read more
Aquifer Characterisation Using Vertical Electrical Sounding in Parts of Nasarawa State, Nigeria: Resistivity, Thickness and Overburden Mapping

Authors: Paul Amade EMMANUEL , Olugbenga Tajudeen ADEEKO, Ado Umar FAROUQ

Applied Geophysics
Paper ID: CRSIJ26000405
Pages: 489-503

Abstract:

Groundwater in the Precambrian Basement Complex of Nasarawa State is governed by strong lithological and structural heterogeneity, so reliable aquifer characterisation is essential if groundwater development is to be sustainable. With that in mind, this study set out to evaluate the geo electrical c... Read more
Efficacy of Station-Rotation-Blended Learning Strategy in Mitigating Anxiety and Enhancing Motivation and Performance in Ecology Concepts among Secondary Schools' Low Achieving Students in Zaria, Kaduna, Nigeria

Paper ID: CRSIJ26000419
Pages: 554-565

Abstract:

Students in low-achieving groups in science classes in secondary schools often face high levels of test anxiety, a lack of academic motivation, and low academic achievement due to traditional teacher-centered instruction. This research assessed the impact of a Station-Rotation Blended Learning Strat... Read more
