    Breathing is one of the human physiological activities that catch the interest of researchers especially in the area of medical diagnosis and human physiological performance. Mostly, the measurement and data are in form of pressure and volume variables of air intake and outflow. However, using airflow pressure and volume require installment of certain sensor usually on subject's mouth which could discomfort the subject. Another possible method for assessing the breathing pattern is through human respiratory muscles, which are via electromyography signal. In this paper, experiment is done on acquiring the electromyography signal from four respiratory muscles namely sternocleidomastoid, scalene, intercostal muscle and diaphragm with subjects performing four different breathing tasks. Analysis-of-variance test has been done on the Electromyography (EMG) feature data of the four muscles for the four breathing tasks. Results of ANOVA analysis, show that the p-values has a significant different in the four breathing tasks for each muscle.

    Visual appearance is the main source of information that can be used for quality assessment of mango. In this study, a non-destructive ripeness level estimation for mango of the cultivar Harumanis based on digital image analysis was employed. The changing peel and flesh colour of mango is strongly correlated to ripeness that can be measured as a sensual quality parameter. This measurement of ripeness level has been determined by image analysis technique which needs to attribute external and internal colour feature from image segmentation Multilevel thresholding technique is proposed for colour image segmentation to extract the mango region from the background which every channel of five colour spaces have been applied. Colour analysis technique and Total soluble solids (TSS) is used to compare and evaluate for the prediction. The optimal results were obtained that a∗ channel from L∗a∗b colour space has given more logical and better performance of prediction which is more than 92% accuracy.

    The cultivation of Harumanis mango (Mangifera indica) is of significant agricultural importance, especially in tropical regions like Malaysia, where it is renowned for its exceptional taste and quality. Maximizing mango yield and maintaining fruit quality are vital aspects of successful cultivation, relying on optimal soil nutrient management, particularly nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). In this research, the soil nutrient test value - relative yield relationship for Harumanis mango is investigated using a modification arcsine-log calibration curve. Traditional linear calibration curves may not fully capture the nonlinearities observed in crop responses, potentially leading to inaccurate nutrient requirements for optimal yield. By employing the innovative modification arcsine-log calibration curve, a more precise and robust relationship between soil nutrient test values and relative mango yield is established. Soil samples are collected from mango orchards, and NPK levels are measured using standardized laboratory techniques, alongside corresponding relative mango yields. This study advances precision agriculture by offering precise soil nutrient recommendations for mango farmers. Utilizing calibrated curves improves mango yield, minimizes nutrient waste, and encourages sustainable farming. In conclusion, the modified arcsine-log calibration curve reveals vital insights for optimal Harumanis mango production, benefiting the industry and sustainability.

    Device-free localization (DFL) has become a hot topic in the paradigm of the Internet of Things. Traditional localization methods are focused on locating users with attached wearable devices. This involves privacy concerns and physical discomfort especially to users that need to wear and activate those devices daily. DFL makes use of the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) to characterize the user’s location based on their influence on wireless signals. Existing work utilizes statistical features extracted from wireless signals. However, some features may not perform well in different environments. They need to be manually designed for a specific application. Thus, data processing is an important step towards producing robust input data for the classification process. This paper presents experimental procedures using the deep learning approach to automatically learn discriminative features and classify the user’s location. Extensive experiments performed in an indoor laboratory environment demonstrate that the approach can achieve 84.2% accuracy compared to the other basic machine learning algorithms.

    In recent years, there has been a proliferation of technology and sport science utilized within an athlete’s physical activity and exercise. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of two strength and conditioning exercises, namely, a customized free-weight exercise and plate-loaded machine exercise, on the lower limb muscle activities of the amateur high jumpers. Six amateur high jumpers were divided into two groups, a customized free-weight group and plate-loaded machine group (control group) and performed exercises as instructed by the coach. The EMG signal of the Rectus Femoris and Bicep Femoris muscles were recorded during the exercises. Metronome was used to control the speed of the exercise and it was standardized for all subjects. The harmstring’s cable pull exercise (customized free-weight) triggered Bicep Femoris more compared to the leg curl exercise (plate-loaded exercise). Similarly, in the case of Rectus Femoris muscle, the front squat exercise (customized free-weight exercise) triggered higher muscular activities compared to the leg extension exercise (plate-loaded exercise). In conclusion, the customized free-weight exercise has indicated higher muscle activities compared to the plate-loaded exercise.

    This study investigates the nutrient requirements of Harumanis mango (Mangifera indica L) during different vegetative shoot growth stages by analyzing the soil nutrient test value-relative growth relationships. The research utilizes the Mitscherlich Law to model the response of mango yield in relation to varying nutrient levels. The data came from experimental plots, and the results show the asymptotic behavior of mango yield for three essential nutrients: nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). For vegetative shoot growth1, the asymptotic yield was estimated at 665.5 with a decline rate of -3.39 concerning N, -2.17 concerning P, and -1.35 concerning K. The coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.934, indicating a high goodness of fit for the model. Similar trends were observed for vegetative shoot growth2 and 3, where the asymptotic yields and nutrient decline rates varied accordingly. This study provides crucial insights into Harumanis mango nutrient needs across growth stages, aiding orchard management for sustainable yields. Applying the Mitscherlich Law enhances our understanding of how nutrients affect mango growth. These findings support targeted fertilization, boosting productivity and orchard efficiency. Future research can explore more growth factors and long-term nutrient impacts.

    Extreme learning machine (ELM) is a special type of single hidden layer feedforward neural network that emphasizes training speed and optimal generalization. The ELM model proposes that the weights of hidden neurons need not be tuned, and the weights of output neurons can be calculated by finding the Moore-Penrose generalized inverse method. Thus, the ELM classifier is suitable to use in a homogeneous ensemble model due to the untuned random hidden weights which promote diversity even with the same training data. This paper studies the effectiveness of the ELM ensemble models in solving small sample-sized classification problems. The research involves two variants of the ensemble model: the normal ELM ensemble with majority voting (ELE), and the random subspace method (RS-ELM). To simulate the small sample cases, only 30% of the total data will be used as the training data. Experiment results show that the RS-ELM model can outperform a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) model under the assumptions of a Friedman test. Furthermore, the ELE model has similar performance as an MLP model under the same assumptions.

    Harumanis is a famous green eating mango cultivar that has been commercially cultivated in Malaysia's state of Perlis. A variety of nutrients are found in soil, all of which are necessary for plant growth. Micronutrients such as Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K) are essential for Harumanis mango (Mangifera Indica) to growth. The importance of soil fertility in achieving high plant productivity and quality cannot be overstated. It should be used in a moderate amount and in a balanced manner. Predicting appropriate nutrients and the right timing to satisfy the tree's demands is critical. The aim of this study is to create a fuzzy logic-based system to analyse the results of soil tests for nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) in the Harumanis mango orchard. The interpreted data are used to estimate N-P-K nutrient levels and indicate the optimal fertilizer solution and application timing for each Harumanis growth stages. The system utilizes Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) to predict the nutrients demand for Harumanis mango growth. Results shows the system able to calculate and predict values of required N-P-K fertilizer for optimal growth. Thus, assist farmers in predicting the proper amount of N-P-K to apply to Harumanis mango soil.
