Artificial neural network-salp-swarm algorithm for stock price prediction by Zuriani, Mustaffa, Mohd Herwan, Sulaiman, Azlan, Abdul Aziz

“…The results show that the SSA-ANN model outperforms other models when applied to normalized data. Additionally, the SSA-ANN model is compared with other two hybrid models: the ANN optimized by the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA-ANN) and Moth-Flame Optimizer (MOA-ANN), as well as a single model, namely the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA). …”

Technological transmission of knowledge in Neolithic northwestern China: mineralogical and chemical analyses of Yangshao and Majiayao painted ware by Spataro, M, Hein, A

“…SEM–EDX was also used to measure the chemical composition of the clays and the paint (black, or in one case, red and white) applied to the ceramic surfaces. The analyses were carried out to detect differences or similarities in the chaînes opératoires of ceramic production at the three sites, in particular, to examine the clay types selected to make the three main categories of wares for which Yangshao and Majiayao are known, namely painted fine wares, burnished fine wares, and unpainted coarse wares. …”

Humour as an act of deracination and native resistance through alterity, subaltern and negritude in selected plays by Francis Davis Imbuga by A. Majeed, Abdulhameed

“…The research achieved three objectives, namely (1) To explore the native Kenyan cultural identity as a manifestation of tradition that contradicts with British modernity culture in the selected plays, (2) To investigate the Kenyan society as being negritude which is perceived as subaltern ethnicity attempting to resist the colonial persecutory alterity by applying Taussig’s concept of alterity and Spivak’s concept of subaltern, and (3) To examine Imbuga’s depiction of native Kenyan cultural tradition that resists the colonial modernity through humour deracination to empower their inherited identity by applying Fanon’s concept of deracination. …”
