Association Between Physical Fitness, Body Fat, BMI, and Physical Activity Level with Learning Outcomes in Elementary School Students
The main problem in achieving learning outcomes in physical subjects at the primary school level is very complex. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between physical fitness, body fat, BMI, and physical activity levels with physical education learning outcome in elementary school students. A cross-sectional study was conducted to answer the research questions. This...
Seedling Growth and Survival of the Endangered Pterocarpus indicus Willd. (Fabaceae) as Affected by Provenances and Biofertilizer Amendments
The endangered Pterocarpus indicus Willd., or narra, is one of the priority species for biodiversity conservation and protection in the Philippines. However, no studies were conducted about the impact of provenance in the seedling performance and survival of narra. The present study aimed to address this gap and study the impact of seed sources and...
Exploring the Performance Impact of Neural Network Optimization on Energy Analysis of Biosensor
With the popularization of new energy vehicles, lithium battery systems, as the main components of new energy vehicles, have the characteristics of short life cycles and harmful substances inside. The green treatment of lithium battery systems has become a research hotspot. Disassembly and recycling are essential means of reusing waste in lithium battery systems. Due...
A multi-vision monitoring framework for simultaneous real-time unmanned aerial monitoring of farmer activity and crop health
Current remote sensing technologies employing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for farm monitoring have shown promise in characterizing the environment through diverse sensor systems, including hyperspectral cameras, LiDAR, thermal cameras, and RGB sensors. However, these solutions often specialize in either activity recognition or crop monitoring, but not both. To address this limitation and enhance efficacy, we...
