Center for Sustainable Development – Batangas State University TNEU
Centered on the theme “Leadership in Collaborative Innovations for a Stronger Nation” Supreme Student Council (SSC) Alangilan, the Office of Student Organizations, the Center for Innovations in Engineering Education (CIEE), and the College of Engineering organized the Sustainable Development Forum on the second day of celebrating the World Engineering Day 2023. The forum shed light...
BS Development Communication students in collaboration with the Center for Sustainable Development staged a one-day exhibit that highlighted the University’s sustainable initiatives in the achievement of the 17 UN SDGs. DevCom students featured various sustainability efforts through a wide array of IEC materials such as pamphlets, brochures, dioramas, charts, and diagrams as well as videos...
Batangas State University (BatStateU), through its Center for Sustainable Development, facilitated the draft presentation of the “BatStateU Policy Guidelines for Sustainable Development” on November 25, 2022. The event was held at the Seminar Room, 5th Floor of the SSC II Building, BatStateU-Pablo Borbon Campus. The initiative aligns with the university’s commitment to sustainability and supports...
Pest infestation is one of the serious problems of the agricultural sector in crop production and may even pose health hazards to humans. Aphis fabae, normally known as black bean aphid, is one of the main culprits that predominantly damage growing crops particularly beans, celery, and peas and may carry diseases as they multiply. Kakawate...
This paper aims to simulate performance efficiency of carrier suppressed non return to zero line coding based FSO transceiver systems under light rain conditions with amplification units at 40 Gbps. The max. Q, BER and total optical power are simulated and demonstrated after FSO channel and PIN Photodetector Receiver under light rain weather conditions at maximum reach...
This study clarifies the data error rates optimization for OFC/OWC channels based on different transmission codes. These codes that are namely multi bits/symbol digital pulse interval modulation (DPIM), multi bits/symbol pulse position modulation (PPM), nonreturn to zero inverted (NRZI), 4 bit data symbol/5 bit code (4B5B), and Manchester for upgrading optical wired/wireless communication systems. The optical power...
Deep learning and computer vision revolutionized a new method to automate medical image diagnosis. However, to achieve reliable and state-of-the-art performance, vision-based models require high computing costs and robust datasets. Moreover, even with the conventional training methods, large vision-based models still involve lengthy epochs and costly disk consumptions that can entail difficulty during deployment due...
Construction industry covers more than 70 percent of the total work strength of Philippines. This entails clear regulations and working conditions among its workers. In an attempt to discover the current condition of the workers, this study determined the demographic and socio-economic profile of construction workers in Malvar, Batangas, Philippines. Further, this also determined the...
This work reports a simple approach to prepare toughened 3D-printed polymethacrylate (PMA) composites using surfactant-modified chitosan (SMCS) particles at loadings between 2–10 wt%. Chitosan (CS) is modified with anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate, via ionic complexation to facilitate compatibility and dispersion of CS to PMA matrix by non-covalent interactions between the components. The study successfully...
In this work, we empirically evaluated the efficiency of the recent EfficientNetB0 model to identify and diagnose malaria parasite infections in blood smears. The dataset used was collected and classified by relevant experts from the Lister Hill National Centre for Biomedical Communications (LHNCBC). We prepared our samples with minimal image transformations as opposed to others,...
