A Review of AI-Based Intrusion Detection Systems for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs)
Abstract: Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) comprise wireless networks that lack any conventional infrastructure . Their chief features include highly changing network topologies, lack of centralized administration, and open nature of communication, which collectively result in making MANETs of the wireless kind very susceptible to a diverse range of cyber-attacks like blackhole, greyhole, wormhole, flooding, Sybil and denial-of-service (DoS) among others. Conventionally, Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) relying on static rule-based methods …

Assessment of Agricultural Potentials and Constraints of Natural Resources Management for Research Implementation in Gedeo Zone South Ethiopia Region
Abstract: This study aimed at assessing agricultural potentials and constraints of natural resources management for research implementation in Gedeo zone south Ethiopia Region. The result indicates that the use of organic and inorganic fertilizers was not efficient and the crop yield was decreasing from year to year. Use of organic fertilizer is for only high value crops of enset and coffee without determined rate. Farmers were not practiced organic fertilizers like …

Predicting Dielectric Constants of Polymers Using Molecular Structural Descriptors and Explainable Machine Learning: A Data-Driven Approach
Abstract: Accurate prediction of dielectric constants in polymeric materials is fundamental to the rational design of advanced electronic components, energy storage capacitors, flexible substrates, and high-frequency communication circuits. Conventional approaches to identifying suitable polymer dielectrics rely on extensive experimental synthesis and characterisation, which are both time-consuming and resource-intensive. In this work, an explainable machine learning framework is developed to predict the dielectric constant of polymers directly from molecular structural descriptors derived …

Understanding the Role of Remote Sensing Techniques in Monitoring Air Quality for Effective Adherence to Environmental Impact Assessment Practices in Nigeria
Abstract: The paper reviews the Nigerian Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Act, outlining the established air quality thresholds and emission caps for stationary sources. The standard applies to; common pollutants like sulphur dioxide, carbon monoxide, ozone, particulate matter and nitrogen oxides; toxic metals such as arsenic, nickel, cadmium and mercury; as well as volatile organic compounds, ammonia, antimony, zinc, formaldehyde and radon.It also describes the major classifications of remote sensing applications, including …
