Anomaly Detection For Multi-System Bug Triage, Gibran Miguel Zavala Gamero, Hayoung Cheon, Mustafa Iqbal Mar 2026

Anomaly Detection For Multi-System Bug Triage, Gibran Miguel Zavala Gamero, Hayoung Cheon, Mustafa Iqbal

SMU Data Science Review

Large-scale software systems produce vast volumes of logs and telemetry, making manual incident triage slow and error prone. This study presents an unsupervised anomaly detection pipeline that fuses logs, metrics, and traces through late fusion. Using Hybrid Ensemble modeling with Isolation Forest, and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) Deep Learning model, the system detects cross-service anomalies producing and assigning a composite triage score reflecting severity and impact. Ranked alerts are categorized into Critical, High, or Medium priorities for review. A retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) layer enriches results with contextual summaries for explainable triage. Evaluated on synthetic multi-service datasets, the pipeline …

Reducing Range Anxiety Through Predictive Modeling Of Ev Battery Degradation, Caleb Thornsbury, Christian Castro, Bivin Sadler Mar 2026

Reducing Range Anxiety Through Predictive Modeling Of Ev Battery Degradation, Caleb Thornsbury, Christian Castro, Bivin Sadler

SMU Data Science Review

Electric Vehicles (EV) range anxiety remains one of the top barriers for broader adoption. Range anxiety can be attributed to battery pack age and degradation over time. This paper plans to explore how to address this issue by creating a machine learning model that can predict degradation based on usage, temperature, battery chemistry, charging habits and exploring whether other factors tie into range degradation. This research will be using real world charging data along with lab tested chemistry data to build a model that can be chemistry specific for degradation. This paper will help perspective used-EV buyers learn about battery …

Al-Qadisiyah Medical Journal

The clinical presentation of COVID-19 varies greatly from case to another, with host characteristics playing a pivotal role. The immune system is a pivotal function in establishing the course of SARS-COV-2 infection. Severe instances of COVID-19 and the resulting death are caused less by the virus itself than by the destructive unrestrained immune response. Among the host determinants for poor disease prognosis is probably genetic vulnerability to dysregulated immune response. The objective of this work is to examine some of the host genetic variables that are being studied in relation to the severity of COVID-19. The complex relationship between autoimmunity …

Angiotensinogen Gene Polymorphism In Iraqi Patient With Essential Hypertension, Ahmed Sultan

Al-Qadisiyah Medical Journal

Different genetic and environmental variables contribute to the complicated condition known as essential hypertension. The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is thought to play a role in controlling blood pressure. In the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), the AGT is a protein that binds to renin to create angiotensin I, the prohormone of angiotensin II. It is angiotensin II (Ang II)'s precursor, angiotensinogen (AGT), that is responsible for its biological effects. The research took place between July 2022 and July 2023 at the Al-Diwaniyah teaching hospital and the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics in the College of Medicine at the University of Al-Qadisiyah in …

Association Between Aldosterone Renin Ratio And Response To Valsartan In Iraqi Patients With Essential Hypertension, Israa Mohammed Mahdy, Bassim I Mohammad Mar 2026

Association Between Aldosterone Renin Ratio And Response To Valsartan In Iraqi Patients With Essential Hypertension, Israa Mohammed Mahdy, Bassim I Mohammad

Al-Qadisiyah Medical Journal

Damage to the heart and blood vessels, as well as to other organs and premature death, have all been related to hypertension, a multifactorial, progressive cardiovascular disease. The aldosterone-renin ratio (ARR) is a useful screening measure for secondary hypertension, which can be caused by primary aldosteronism. Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB) are the most often utilized medications that influence the renin-angiotensin system. These drugs prevent the physiological effects of angiotensin II by binding to AT1R. Blood pressure can be lowered by inhibiting AT1 receptors, as this results in decreased production of vasopressin and aldosterone and subsequent relaxation of blood vessels. …
