Spatial Distribution and Pollution Assessment of Metals in Sediments of the Babon River, Central Java, Indonesia.

Background: The Babon River is one of the drainage channels in Semarang, Indonesia, that is used for drinking water, irrigated agriculture of paddy fields and gardens, fish farming media, and the disposal of industrial wastewater. This study aimed to assess the spatial distribution of metals in the sediment of the Babon River through the utilization of different pollution indices. These indices included concentration factor (Cf), contamination factor (CF), enrichment factor (EF), geoaccumulation index (Igeo), sediment pollution index (SPI), threshold effect level (TEL), and probable effect level (PEL).

Active self-treatment of a facial wound with a biologically active plant by a male Sumatran orangutan.

Although self-medication in non-human animals is often difficult to document systematically due to the difficulty of predicting its occurrence, there is widespread evidence of such behaviors as whole leaf swallowing, bitter pith chewing, and fur rubbing in African great apes, orangutans, white handed gibbons, and several other species of monkeys in Africa, Central and South America and Madagascar. To the best of our knowledge, there is only one report of active wound treatment in non-human animals, namely in chimpanzees. We observed a male Sumatran orangutan (Pongo abelii) who sustained a facial wound.

A deep learning framework for non-functional requirement classification.

Analyzing, identifying, and classifying nonfunctional requirements from requirement documents is time-consuming and challenging. Machine learning-based approaches have been proposed to minimize analysts' efforts, labor, and stress. However, the traditional approach of supervised machine learning necessitates manual feature extraction, which is time-consuming.
