Post-publication name change policies are vital for safeguarding privacy and equity for authors navigating identity changes, including gender transitions, within academic publishing. Before the introduction of these policies in 2019, trans, non-binary, and gender diverse authors faced significant barriers, often risking privacy violations and disruptions to their academic records. This study employs thematic content analysis to assess the publicly available name change policies of nine academic journal publishers, examining their structure, discoverability, and alignment with inclusivity principles. Key findings reveal a lack of standardization across policies, with notable variation in content and accessibility. While privacy and correction mechanisms are commonly addressed, critical themes such as author engagement and broader industry context remain underdeveloped. The policies’ discoverability on publisher websites also varies widely, potentially limiting their utility to those who need them most. These gaps highlight covert marginalization embedded in policy design and communication. By situating this analysis within an ethic of care and the broader context of digital identity management, this study reveals how publishing policies intersect with web-based systems of scholarly communication. The findings urge academic publishers, technologists, and policymakers to co-create inclusive solutions that align with emerging metadata standards and ethical frameworks. This research lays a foundation for understanding how academic infrastructure can evolve to better serve diverse author communities in a connected and equitable web ecosystem.

The rapid growth of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), particularly in the post-COVID-19 era, has transformed education and led to a substantial increase in student-generated reviews. However, manual analysis of these reviews is impractical due to their sheer volume, and traditional binary sentiment analysis lacks the granularity needed to extract actionable insights. This study proposes a novel framework leveraging Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) to classify MOOC reviews into seven critical aspects. The model was trained on a 100,000-review dataset from Coursera and a manually annotated 10,000-review dataset from Udemy. Various machine learning techniques were evaluated, with the final model integrating Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and Support Vector Machines (SVM). The SVM achieved notable performance, with accuracy rates of 93.7% for sentiment prediction and 88.64% for aspect classification on the Coursera dataset, and 73.91% for sentiment prediction and 66.95% for aspect classification on the Udemy dataset. These results underscore the model's efficacy in delivering a comprehensive and platform-independent approach to analyzing MOOC reviews, providing valuable insights for educators and course developers.

The rapid expansion of online financial transactions has escalated the risk of fraud, posing significant challenges for banks and financial institutions, particularly in Sri Lanka. Traditional rule-based fraud detection systems often find it challenging to balance speed and accuracy, rendering them less effective against advanced and evolving fraud schemes. This study proposes a hybrid machine learning model combining decision trees and neural networks to enhance fraud detection performance. The model incorporates advanced preprocessing techniques, including feature scaling and outlier detection, to improve data quality. It employs supervised learning to achieve high accuracy and adapt to emerging fraud patterns. Additionally, explainable AI (XAI) is incorporated to ensure transparency in detection outcomes, where the user would be entrusted to make the final decision on the transaction, thereby fostering user trust and compliance with regulations in the financial sector. The model is designed to process large volumes of transactions efficiently, which demonstrates its scalability and suitability for high-volume banking environments.

Bias in Natural Language Processing (NLP) models pose urgent ethical and societal challenges by perpetuating stereotypes and inequalities. This review provides a comprehensive overview of state-of-the-art Explainable AI (XAI) techniques—such as LIME, SHAP, and Integrated Gradients—for detecting and mitigating bias. We detail our methodology for selecting relevant studies and analyze key NLP datasets (e.g., StereoSet, CrowS-Pairs) to uncover specific limitations like language coverage and intersectional gaps. Moreover, we highlight emerging challenges in scalability, cultural diversity, and regulatory compliance. By integrating these findings, we propose actionable strategies for fair and transparent NLP systems, positioning this work as a foundation for ongoing improvements in equitable AI solutions.

Jazz reharmonization is a complex musical technique that improves harmonic frameworks by inventive chord progressions, augmenting the depth and emotional resonance of pieces. This paper examines the use of artificial intelligence, namely transformer networks, in the automation of jazz reharmonization, ensuring melodic coherence and artistic fidelity. This review compiles current research to highlight essential approaches, including early rule-based systems, neural networks, and advanced transformer models while emphasizing their benefits and limits. Particular emphasis is placed on the difficulties associated with dataset preparation, assessment measures, and the adaptation of AI systems to the intricacies of jazz harmony. The evaluation, via a critical examination of previous studies, identifies areas for enhancement, including real-time applications, multi-modal data integration, and cross-genre adaptation. The insights provided seek to direct future research and position transformers as a revolutionary instrument in computational musicology. This document is an extensive reference for scholars and professionals investigating the convergence of artificial intelligence and jazz music.

This paper explores the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) combined with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to assist instructors in identifying course-wide student challenges through topic modeling. Unlike previous studies that primarily generate personalized resources for individual students, this research focuses on analyzing reflections from an entire class to inform curriculum design and intervention strategies. Using the LLaMa-3.1-8B model, experiments across varying cosine similarity thresholds reveal both the strengths and limitations of integrating retrieval-based models. While RAG did not consistently outperform standalone LLMs, it offers key insights into the complexities of applying retrieval-augmented approaches in educational settings.

In modern medical diagnostics, machine learning (ML) has emerged as a transformative tool, reshaping healthcare practices. This study investigates the application of ML for the timely and accurate detection of bone fractures, a critical aspect of orthopedic care. Delayed diagnosis can result in complications such as malunion or non-union, underscoring the need for real-time, precise identification of fracture types and locations. While X-ray interpretation relies heavily on the expertise of medical professionals, poor image quality often poses significant challenges. To address these issues, this research introduces a novel ML-based model for fracture segmentation and classification. The model leverages advanced architectures, including ResNet, DenseNet, and U-Net, to perform fracture segmentation and classification with high accuracy. Additionally, image enhancement and preprocessing techniques are incorporated to mitigate the limitations posed by low-quality radiographic images. The findings highlight the potential of ML in improving diagnostic precision and efficiency, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes in orthopedic care.
