Investigation of the Top Scopus-Indexed Journals in Agricultural and Biological sciences Across Diverse Asian Countries: A Bibliometric Analysis

Wed, 03 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0700

This article presents bibliometric data of major Asian Scopus-indexed journals in agricultural and biological sciences. The study aimed to compare top cited articles published in the top ranked journals in agricultural and biological sciences across different countries. Another purpose is to compare keywords, authors, and country collaboration of in the top ranked journals in agricultural and biological sciences across different countries. The data were collected from two sources, the Scimago Journal Ranking (SJR) 1999-2022 for yearly citation and publications and Scopus database for bibliometric data. The methodology included content analysis and bibliometric analysis of the selected journals, including the top-ranked journals located in China, Japan, and India. The instruments used were fundamental statistics and VOS viewer which was used for crafting author collaboration and keyword map. The analysis revealed that research on the 2019-nCoV virus, plant resilience, and fish genetics received most citations. While keyword analysis revealed similarities in the content of the journals, variations exist in the number of citations and publications. In addition, distinctions arise in authors and international collaboration. Typically, featured authors in each journal are predominantly researchers from the country where the journal is based. Finally, the political standings of each country also affected the publication.

Thai Word Segmentation using a Replacing the English Alphabet Approach to Enhance Thai Text Sentiment Analysis

Vuttichai Vichianchai, Sumonta Kasemvilas — Wed, 03 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0700

Thai word segmentation is an important method used that is in several document analysis applications. Dictionary-based techniques are popular for Thai word segmentation because of their high accuracy. However, these techniques are prone to errors, especially when some words are not in the dictionary. A solution to this problem is to add more vocabulary to the dictionary. Moreover, traditional techniques cannot be applied to segment misspelled words. Therefore, this research proposes a new Thai word segmentation method that replaces Thai letters with English letters. Replacing the English alphabet (REA) is a novel approach for generating short English character sequences using various formats with the same Thai writing structures. This approach improves the accuracy of Thai word segmentation, thus increasing the accuracy of Thai text classification and sentiment analysis. An evaluation is performed using Thai social media messages and Thai post comments on Pantip. These datasets are labeled by their sentiments (positive, neutral, or negative). The performance of the REA approach with the TF-G and RF techniques is better than that of the other methods, and the experimental results may be acceptable upon comparison with those of earlier well-known studies.

Siriporn Noiumkar — Wed, 03 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0700

The research aimed at 1) developing an online exhibition through inquiry-based learning management for Book Fair at Academic Resource Centre, Mahasarakham University case study, 2) evaluating the quality of the online exhibition, and 3) studying the visitors’ perception towards the online exhibition through inquiry-based learning management. By using Krejcie and Morgan table to determine the sample size, there were 132 Mahasarakham University students participating in the study. The research tools included 1) the online exhibition through inquiry-based learning, 2) the questionnaire for experts regarding the quality of the online exhibition, and 3) the questionnaire for visitors' perception towards the online exhibition based on the principles of inquiry-based learning. The research findings indicated that the online exhibition using inquiry-based learning management consists of 1) the aspect of engagement, 2) the aspect of exploration, 3) the aspect of explanation, 4) the aspect of elaboration, and 5) the aspect of evaluation. The exhibition was presented in a three-dimensional virtual reality format where visitors could experience the content of the online exhibition by navigating through the virtual world as if they were walking through an actual exhibition. The evaluation results of the online exhibition’s quality was at excellent level with the mean value of 4.61. The students’ perceptions when visiting the online exhibition was at high level with the mean value of 4.35. It indicated that the online exhibition could convey its content and story very well. It also allowed visitors to have interactions through chats, conversations, virtual walking in a 3D virtual reality, and freely explore the desired content that were presented in the forms of videos, images, texts, and live broadcasting. This could greatly enhance visitor’s perception and create new experience for them.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the distribution of sound intensity and its relationship over time with the livelihoods of people in three communities surrounding Samui Airport, consisting of Ban Bang Rak, Ban Plai Laem, and Ban Chaweng. By utilizing geographic information systems (GIS) to perform spatial interpolation, the study found that the maximum sound intensity level during the morning period from 08:00 to 11:00 was 93.72 decibels. There are 4,650 households that have been impacted by noise levels exceeding 70 decibels. During the afternoon period from 13:00 to 16:00, the maximum sound level recorded was 88.69 decibels. There are 3,260 households impacted by noise levels exceeding 70 decibels. During the evening period from 18:00 to 21:00, the maximum sound level recorded was 86.06 decibels. There is a total of 4,957 households impacted by noise levels exceeding 70 decibels. In conclusion, the study revealed that the most significant impact of noise on the well-being of individuals in the neighborhoods surrounding Samui Airport occurs during the evening hours from 18:00 to 21:00. This observation corresponds with the survey findings. Because this timeframe coincides with peak flight activity and is also when individuals typically seek leisure and tranquillity, it is during the evening period that noise has the most significant impact on the community's quality of life.
