An Evaluation of Cutting Forces in CNC Machining Processes Using Machine Learning Approach: A Review
type: item
description: Cutting forces play a pivotal role in determining the efficiency, accuracy, and quality of CNC machining processes. Accurate prediction and control of these forces are essential for optimizing tool life, surface finish, and energy consumption. Traditional modeling approaches, such as analytical and empirical methods, often fall short in capturing the complex, nonlinear interactions among machining parameters. In recent years, machine learning (ML) has emerged as a powerful alternative, offering data-driven solutions capable of modeling intricate relationships in real time. This review explores the application of various ML techniques—including Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Support Vector Machines (SVM), Random Forests, and Deep Learning models such as Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks—for predicting cutting forces in CNC machining. It evaluates the methodologies used for data acquisition, preprocessing, and model training, and compares the performance of different approaches using key metrics like RMSE and R². The paper also discusses current limitations, such as data scarcity and generalization issues, and proposes future directions including real-time deployment, hybrid models, and integration with digital twins. The review concludes that ML offers significant potential for advancing intelligent machining systems by enabling accurate, adaptive, and real-time force prediction.

The Evolution and Role of Ar-Rahnu in Malaysia's Financial System
type: item
description: This mini-review investigates the development and functional significance of ar-rahnu, Malaysia’s Syariah compliant pawnbroking system, within the broader framework of Islamic finance and financial inclusion. Initiated in the early 1990s, ar-rahnu has served as an accessible microcredit facility primarily targeting low-income earners and micro-entrepreneurs. It utilizes gold as collateral and operates without charging interest, adhering strictly to Islamic legal principles. Over time, the model principally operated by cooperatives and Islamic financial institutions has proliferated across the country, establishing itself as a viable ethical substitute to conventional pawnbroking. This review specifically analyzes ar-rahnu's contribution to Malaysia’s financial inclusion agenda and assesses the prospective role of digital innovations, particularly AI tools like ChatGPT, in enhancing service delivery. Although AI integration in Islamic finance remains nascent, preliminary findings suggest its potential to support user education, automate routine inquiries, and optimize operational processes. Nonetheless, concerns persist regarding the precision of citations and content completeness. The paper identifies a significant research gap in harmonizing digital innovation with traditional Islamic finance mechanisms and emphasizes the necessity for further inquiry into the ethical, legal, and technological dimensions. Synthesizing key themes from existing scholarship, this review offers insights into the evolving role of ar-rahnu as a pillar of inclusive financial systems in Malaysia, while proposing directions for technological enhancement aligned with Syariah compliant development.

Integration of Palm Oil Supply Chain Information System in Langkat Regency with Prospective Artificial Intelligence for Price Predictioand Distribution Optimization
type: item
description: The palm oil supply chain in Indonesia faces persistent challenges, including price fluctuations, long distribution channels, and the weak bargaining position of smallholder farmers. This study analyzes the palm oil smallholder supply chain in Langkat Regency using the Food Supply Chain Network (FSCN) framework and designs a marketing information system prototype to improve transparency and efficiency. The proposed system allows farmers, traders, and palm oil mills (PKS) to access real-time price information and conduct transactions digitally, thereby reducing dependency on intermediaries and improving farmers’ income share. Although the current study focuses on the development of an information system, it also highlights the potential integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies. AI can be applied in price prediction, demand forecasting, and logistics optimization, which will strengthen decision-making and enhance supply chain performance. The findings suggest that while the prototype provides an initial solution for improving transparency, the integration of AI in future development presents significant opportunities to address systemic inefficiencies. This study contributes to the discussion on the role of digital transformation and AI in agricultural supply chains, particularly in improving smallholder welfare and market competitiveness.

Pest Detection on Oil-Palm Leaves Using the K-Nearest Neighbor Algorithm and Image Analysis
type: item
description: Oil palm is a strategic commodity whose productivity is often threatened by leaf‐feeding pests such as bagworms and nettle caterpillars, underscoring the need for rapid, objective early detection. This study develops an image-based pest detection system using the K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) algorithm with Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) texture features—energy, contrast, homogeneity, and correlation—extracted from images of healthy and infested leaves. The workflow comprises preprocessing (resizing, grayscale conversion, thresholding), GLCM feature extraction, normalization, and KNN classification with Euclidean distance and an empirically selected k. Performance is assessed on three classes (healthy, bagworm, nettle caterpillar) using a confusion matrix alongside precision, recall, and F1-score, with cross-validation to gauge generalization. The model reliably distinguishes classes, with classwise metrics ranging from 0.71 to 0.83 evaluation on new samples yields predictions consistent with ground truth. These findings indicate that the GLCM–KNN combination is an effective and affordable approach for early pest detection in oil-palm leaves, supporting timely, data-informed decisions in the field. Future improvements include enlarging and diversifying the dataset, parameter optimization and feature selection, comparative baselines with SVM/CNN, and integration into IoT and UAV monitoring pipelines for plantation-scale surveillance.

The Influence of Leadership Styles on Employee Performance and Motivation in Modern Organizations: A Descriptive Literature Study
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the influence of leadership styles on employee performance and motivation in modern organizations using a descriptive literature review method. The research focuses on three main leadership styles—transformational, transactional, and participative and their effects on employees’ intrinsic and extrinsic motivation as well as work performance. Data were collected from primary and secondary literature, including academic books, scientific journals, research articles, organizational documents, and credible online sources. The analytical technique employed is qualitative descriptive analysis, which includes categorizing the literature based on themes and research variables, constructing descriptive narratives, and examining the relationships among variables. The findings show that transformational leadership significantly enhances intrinsic motivation and employee performance through inspiration, recognition, and potential development. Transactional leadership is effective in improving short-term performance through rewards and punishments but is less supportive of intrinsic motivation and creativity. Meanwhile, participative leadership boosts motivation, job satisfaction, and team collaboration by involving employees in decision-making processes. Employee motivation plays an important mediating role between leadership style and performance. The study concludes that a combination of transformational and participative leadership styles yields optimal results in enhancing employee motivation and performance in modern organizations. These findings are expected to serve as a reference for managers, organizational leaders, and future academic research.

Exploring Work Motivation Phenomena Among Field Workers to Improve Performance
type: item
description: This study explores the dynamics of work motivation among field workers in PTPN IV Kebun Gunung Bayu, a major palm oil plantation in Simalungun Regency, North Sumatra, Indonesia. Motivation in plantation environments is shaped not only by individual capability but also by relational, structural, and contextual conditions embedded in daily field operations. Using a qualitative exploratory design, data were collected through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and field observations involving 20 workers and supervisory personnel. Analysis using open, axial, and selective coding identified five dominant themes: worker capability and contextual self-efficacy, clarity of communication and role certainty, supervisory leadership and emotional climate, motivational drivers and barriers, and the connection between motivation and performance. The findings show that motivation is highly dynamic and strongly influenced by communication consistency, supervisory fairness, environmental challenges, and perceptions of justice in workload allocation. Leadership emerged as the most significant factor affecting emotional readiness and daily enthusiasm, while communication clarity played a central role in strengthening confidence and task orientation.

Economic Resilience and Inclusiveness of Indonesian Growth 2014–2023
type: item
description: This study aims to analyze the dynamics of Indonesia’s macroeconomic and social indicators from 2014 to 2023, with a focus on the resilience and inclusivity of economic growth during the COVID-19 pandemic and its recovery phase. Using a descriptive quantitative approach with longitudinal time-series analysis, secondary data were collected from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) website. The research covers six key indicators: foreign exchange reserves (USD billion), broad money supply M2 (IDR trillion), economic growth rate (%), poverty rate (%), labor force participation rate (%), and inclusive growth (proxied by poverty and labor participation trends). The analysis comprises three stages: trend analysis, comparative analysis between the pre-pandemic (2014–2019) and pandemic-recovery periods (2020–2023), and descriptive econometric interpretation based on Keynesian theory, Friedman’s monetary theory, and inclusive development theory. Results indicate significant increases in foreign reserves and M2, a temporary poverty spike in 2020, stable improvements in labor force participation, and a sharp economic rebound from -2.1% (2020) to 5.1% (2023). Novelty lies in integrating macroeconomic stability and social inclusion perspectives within a single longitudinal framework. Limitations include the absence of micro-level household data, which restricts the depth of distributional impact analysis. Findings highlight the importance of adaptive fiscal-monetary coordination to sustain stability while ensuring inclusive growth.

Implementing Tawarruq in Digital Ar-Rahnu
type: item
description: The incorporation of tawarruq mechanisms within digital ar-rahnu systems signifies a pivotal transformation in the architecture of Shariah-compliant financial services. This mini-review critically investigates the convergence between tawarruq-based financing frameworks and emerging digital technologies namely artificial intelligence (AI), mobile applications, and blockchain infrastructure through the lenses of operational potential, regulatory complexity and Shariah alignment. Technological advancements such as ChatGPT and other AI-driven models are evaluated for their capacity to streamline operational efficiency, facilitate automated Shariah compliance screening and enhance consumer interaction. However, the implementation of these tools also introduces critical concerns related to citation reliability, jurisprudential depth and adherence to Islamic legal ethics. Major challenges encompass disparities in digital literacy, the commodification of personal data under surveillance capitalism, and threats to digital sovereignty. On the contrary, digital innovations like decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) and inclusive blockchain-based financial platforms offer promising avenues for expanding access to Islamic financial services. The review further assesses the efficacy of AI-generated content in Islamic finance, recognizing its value in preliminary knowledge dissemination while highlighting its deficiencies in scholarly rigor. This paper contributes to the evolving discourse on digital Islamic finance by emphasizing the necessity of rigorous Shariah governance to ensure ethical and effective integration of technology in tawarruq-driven financial instruments.
