abstract = {Evolving fuzzy systems (EFS) offer an incremental learning, making them promising for fault diagnosis (FD) in industrial processes, where unknown faults and changing operation conditions are common. The evolving fuzzy structure enables incremental rule adaptation while maintaining interpretability and reduced computational complexity compared with deep learning approaches. However, the performance of EFS depends heavily on the preprocessing of input data. This study evaluates eight preprocessing strategies for EFS applied to the Tennessee Eastman benchmark process. A one-vs-rest EFS architecture was implemented for ten representative faults (IDV1, IDV2, IDV4, IDV5, IDV6, IDV7, IDV8, IDV10, IDV13 and IDV14) in order to make a comparison with other FD techniques. This approach uses seven variables selected by using the least angle regression. Preprocessing methods were applied to highlight fault signatures. Using the Daubechies-4 in the preprocessing achieved the best overall F1-score (73.68%) with a sensitivity of 97.37%, outperforming the no-preprocessing baseline (F1 = 70.67%). Per-fault analysis showed high performance for faults IDV6, IDV7, and IDV14, while IDV1, IDV2, IDV5, and IDV8 exhibited high sensitivity but lower specificity. These findings indicate that wavelet preprocessing significantly enhances EFS for FD, and that the choice of wavelet should be guided by application priorities: Daubechies-4 is recommended for maximum detection and fewer false alarms. The obtained results demonstrate that wavelet preprocessing substantially improves classification robustness and fault discrimination compared with the non-preprocessed baseline.},

The method combines windowed feature construction, supervised learning, and stability-oriented regularization, while enabling optional topological and structural diagnostics to corroborate detected transitions. A reproducible pipeline trains models, calibrates decision thresholds, and preserves artifacts for transparent validation, including metrics, figures, and segment-level summaries. Experiments show consistent discrimination, improved reliability under distributional change, and interpretable latent representations that support operational monitoring. The results demonstrate that integrating robustness principles with structured diagnostics yields actionable early-warning signals for complex dynamic systems in practice.},

abstract = {The rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and affective computing technologies into organisational environments is transforming workplace dynamics. However, their impact on employee well-being and productivity remains fragmented and insufficiently synthesised. This study addresses this research gap through a systematic review of AI-powered emotional intelligence systems. It focuses on their effects across three core dimensions: employee attitudes (job satisfaction, motivation, adaptability), workplace behaviours (performance, creativity, technology adoption), and organisational dynamics (leadership, trust, team cohesion). Following the PRISMA framework, this study conducts a systematic evaluation and comparative analysis of the state-of-the-art literature. It identifies key patterns, methodological trends, and underexplored areas. The findings suggest that emotional AI systems may enhance employee engagement and organisational productivity when implemented within ethically grounded and transparent frameworks. However, the review also highlights critical challenges related to privacy, emotional surveillance, algorithmic bias, and employee trust. This study contributes a structured framework that clarifies the role of emotional AI in organisational contexts and outlines actionable, scalable strategies for real-world application. By consolidating dispersed evidence and proposing directions for future research, this study is intended to provide a benchmark for subsequent investigations into AI-driven emotional intelligence and its implications for sustainable, human-centred workplaces.},

abstract = {Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly embedded in esports, shaping training, performance, and player experience. While much attention has been given to technical applications, less is known about how AI-mediated systems affect psychological well-being. This Perspective Article introduces the concept of synthetic happiness, defined as a technology-mediated form of subjective well-being that emerges through adaptive feedback, motivational regulation, and cognitive reappraisal in digital environments. We propose two conceptual models to situate synthetic happiness within established psychological theories: the Synthetic Happiness Pyramid and the AI-Happiness Loop. The Pyramid extends Maslow's hierarchy by incorporating AI-driven adaptation as a determinant of resilience, motivation, and flourishing in esports contexts. The Loop illustrates the dynamic cycle through which biometric and behavioural monitoring inform adaptive interventions, sustaining flow, supporting Self-Determination Theory's needs of autonomy, competence, and relatedness, and mitigating burnout risk. Beyond theory, we highlight ethical concerns related to biometric data privacy, cognitive autonomy, and youth protection, emphasizing the need for transparent and responsible design. By integrating sport psychology, motivation science, and AI ethics, this article outlines a research agenda for empirically testing synthetic happiness models and developing frameworks that ensure AI promotes—not undermines—long-term well-being in competitive digital sport.},

This paper examines the ethical and philosophical dilemmas associated with research on and applications of CTM, with particular attention to human enhancement, privacy, consent, moral responsibility, and free will. It also considers how CTM intersects with longstanding philosophical debates on consciousness and personal identity, while addressing challenges raised by alternative perspectives, such as embodied cognition.

abstract = {Smart cities aim to integrate technological, infrastructural, and socio-environmental systems in order to improve urban sustainability and quality of life. To qualify as both smart and sustainable, a city is generally expected to pursue self-sufficiency through the adoption of sustainable practices in energy production, water supply, and food systems. Such cities also seek to reduce operational costs for both private operators and municipalities, while aiming to enhance the quality of life of their residents. Within this context, the relevance of a web-based application becomes particularly apparent. An application equipped with predefined indicators can provide a structured and measurable framework for assessing the current status of a city or town in relation to smart and sustainable development. This framework allows for the evaluation of the extent to which a city aligns with established criteria associated with smart and sustainable urban models. This paper introduces a Python-based web application, developed using Python version 3.10, designed to assess or support the self-assessment of a city’s alignment with identified smart and sustainable development indicators. This study does not claim empirical validation or benchmarking performance; the proposed system is presented as a proof-of-concept framework. The work does not propose new smart city indicators. Rather, it presents an integrative system that seeks to operationalise existing smart and sustainable city indicators within a unified and modular web-based assessment framework, designed to support cross-domain evaluation and citizen-accessible self-assessment.},

abstract = {Water losses in distribution systems constitute a significant global challenge, undermining water resource sustainability, increasing operational costs, and threatening the water security of millions. In Latin America, up to 40% of treated water is reportedly lost due to leaks, ruptures, and defective connections (Xylem, 2025). At the household level, silent leaks—particularly in toilet flushing systems—can waste over 37,850 litres annually per dwelling (US EPA, 2024). Various international studies have addressed early leak detection using intelligent systems. In Europe, wireless sensor networks and machine learning models such as Random Forest, Support Vector Machines, and neural networks have been deployed for anomaly detection in urban networks. Asian research has demonstrated detection accuracies exceeding 97% through convolutional neural networks trained on acoustic and vibrational signals, enhanced by contrastive learning to address data scarcity. Hybrid approaches combining hydraulic modelling with AI have been applied in the Middle East and China, whereas logic-based and anomaly detection algorithms have been integrated into real-time platforms in Australia and Canada. Sensor placement optimisation via graph partitioning has further improved coverage efficiency. Despite their effectiveness, these solutions often require substantial investment and advanced infrastructure, limiting their applicability in resource-constrained environments. This study proposes a cost-effective, perceptron-based model for detecting silent leaks in household toilets, integrated within an Internet of Things (IoT) framework. The system employs a Hall-effect flow sensor to capture high-resolution filling-time and pulse-count data, processed through supervised learning to discriminate between normal consumption and leakage. Experimental results under real-use conditions achieved 98% classification accuracy, demonstrating both technical feasibility and operational suitability. This approach offers a practical, computationally efficient solution for domestic contexts in Latin America, enabling real-time monitoring and immediate user alerts, thus supporting water conservation efforts through accessible intelligent detection.},

One of the most pressing issues in corn cultivation is inadequate weed management, which reduces productivity and increases production costs. This article proposes an autonomous system for weed detection and removal in corn fields, integrating artificial intelligence algorithms, real-time computer vision, and a robotic arm equipped with a laser and herbicide sprayer. Following a systematic review, the YOLOv8m model was selected for its real-time detection capabilities and its balance between accuracy and efficiency. The proposed system employs machine learning algorithms in Python, achieving over 80% accuracy in distinguishing corn plants from weeds. Preliminary results demonstrate precise weed control, reduced environmental impact, and feasibility of field integration with minimal human intervention. This project marks a significant advancement toward more efficient and sustainable precision agriculture. As future work, the hybrid tool will apply selective treatments based on the size and location of the weeds, further minimizing herbicide use.},

abstract = {Air quality in Guadalajara has deteriorated in recent years, becoming a serious health concern for the local population. In response, this project seeks to mitigate the impact of pollution by developing a prediction platform based on ARIMA models implemented in Python.



The system will analyse historical pollutant levels—including PM₂.₅, PM₁₀, SO₂, NO₂, O₃ and CO—enabling the anticipation of high-pollution episodes. Armed with this information, both citizens and authorities will be able to take timely preventative measures.



Given the growing interest in air quality and its implications for health, this tool will furnish valuable data for informed decision-making. Moreover, it will facilitate trend analysis and permit short-term forecasts, helping to identify potential pollution episodes before they occur.},

abstract = {The transformation of traditional energy systems into smart energy systems has ushered in an era of efficiency, sustainability and technological growth. In this paper, we propose a new definition for “Quality of Energy Service” that focuses on ensuring optimal power-supply quality, encompassing factors such as availability, speed (i.e., the time to restore or adjust supply following interruptions or load changes) and reliability of sup-ply. We explore the integration of advanced algorithms specifically tailored to enhance the Quality of Energy Services. By concentrating on key aspects—reliability, availability and operational efficiency—the study reviews how various algorithmic approaches, from machine learning models to classical optimisation techniques, can significantly improve power grid management. These algorithms are evaluated for their potential to optimise load distribution, predict system failures and manage real-time adjustments in power supply, thereby ensuring higher service quality and grid stability. The findings aim to provide actionable insights for policymakers, engineers and industry stakeholders seeking to advance smart grid technologies and meet global energy standards. Fur-thermore, we present a case study to demonstrate how these models can be integrated to optimise grid management, forecast energy demand and enhance operational efficiency. We employ multiple machine learning models—including Random Forest, XGBoost version 1.6.1 and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks—to predict future energy demand. These models are then combined within an ensemble learning framework to improve both the accuracy and robustness of the forecasts. Our ensemble framework not only predicts energy consumption but also optimises battery storage utilisation, ensuring continuous energy availability and reducing reliance on external energy sources. The proposed stacking ensemble achieved a forecasting accuracy of 99.06%, with a Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of 0.9364% and a Coefficient of Determination (R2) of 0.998345, highlighting its superior performance compared to each individual base model.},

A key contribution is the introduction of synthetic happiness—a form of well-being facilitated or enhanced by AI rather than naturally occurring processes. By reviewing current advancements, the study highlights AI’s positive impact on life satisfaction while addressing ethical concerns and potential drawbacks. The paper explores AI’s role in personalised healthcare, mental health support, and adaptive education, demonstrating how it fosters environments conducive to happiness. It further analyses synthetic happiness as a novel perspective on AI-driven well-being, discussing its benefits and risks, including reduced human interaction and over-reliance on artificial systems. While AI presents transformative opportunities to enhance happiness, it must complement rather than replace genuine human experiences. This paper provides a foundation for understanding AI’s role in well-being and offers insights for future research and applications.},
