Decision tree method (Flexibility in adaptation - FIA) for evaluating the flexibility of flood risk adaptation options in Lad Krabang, Thailand
Abstract: Flexibility in planning and implementation of responses to prevent and adapt to flooding can be achieved using methods such as Real in Option (RIO), Adaptation Tipping Point (ATP) and Adaptation Pathway. However these methods lack the ability to evaluate the degrees of flexibility of the adaptation measures. Hence, this paper proposes a method for evaluating and making a comparison between a numbers of different flood prevention plans in terms of …

Vani-Adapt: A Zero-Shot Accent Trans-Adaptation Framework for Robust Indic Speech Recognition
Abstract: In countries like India with multilingual and accent-rich dialects, speech-based human–computer interaction is important to expand digital services for better accessibility. Even with recent advancements in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), existing systems are still very reactive to regional accents and non-standard speech patterns which is not suitable for seamless experience. Traditional perspectives rely on accent-specific fine-tuning, which is unrealistic for real-world deployment and requires a lot of labeled data, which …

A Review on Adaptive Back Stepping Sliding Mode Control on Type 1 Diabetics
Abstract: Making the system state "slide" along a predetermined surface is the goal of the robust controlmethod known as sliding mode control. The sliding surface ensure that the system remains stable evenin the presence of uncertainties or disturbances. Backstepping is a recursive control design methodthat breaks down complex control problems into simpler subsystems. It constructs a series ofLyapunov functions to stabilize each subsystem, eventually achieving stability for the entire system.Based on …

Enhancing the Selection Process for Adaptive Reuse
Abstract: Adaptive reuse initiatives aim to enhance the economic, environmental, and social performance of buildings while maximizing the reuse and retention of existing structures and fabrics. The majority of publications in the literature deal with the planning stage, whereas few deal with the pre-project stage and the fewest deal with the implementation stage. More emphasis on thepreparation phase implies that the execution phase will be simpler. A comprehensive adaptive reuse selection …
