Optical Character Recognition (OCR) systems often struggle to extract text accurately from images captured at various distances, particularly under challenging conditions such as blurriness, noise, or poor lighting. These issues are common in real-world scenarios and limit the effectiveness of existing OCR technologies. This study addresses these challenges by applying Gaussian blur after the grayscale conversion. This method reduces noise for the image's clarity without sacrificing the original algorithm's key features. Results revealed that the enhanced OCR algorithm significantly outperformed existing methods in terms of accuracy and confidence levels. It demonstrated the ability to read signages with higher precision, even in difficult conditions such as intricate designs, poor lighting, and long distances. This advancement enables more reliable text recognition and translation, offering practical applications for public signage translation, cross-cultural communication, and improved accessibility in multilingual environments.

This study conducts an exploratory data analysis combined with machine learning techniques to identify early signs of student depression. We investigated various factors affecting mental health among students, including sleep duration, dietary patterns, history of suicidal thoughts, family history of mental illness, and their relationships with depression across age groups and academic pressure. The study also examined the influence of gender on academic stress levels. Three machine learning models such as Random Forest, Support Vector Machine (SVM), and K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) were utilized to predict depression. The performance of these models was evaluated, achieving accuracy rates of 84.97% for Random Forest, 84.85% for SVM, and 81.16% for KNN. The findings highlight the effectiveness of these models in predicting student depression and underscore the importance of targeted mental health interventions based on key factors influencing mental health among students.

This Community Service activity is motivated by a phenomenon that occurs,especially among teenagers, which is closely related to the desire to always exist in all things, which sometimes has a negative impact on the development of attitudes and behavior in life. Without considering and realizing that their abilities do not match their parents' abilities, this gives rise to an insecure attitude, always wanting to be fashionable or follow trends, even though this does not necessarily suit their character. Generation Z's lifestyle is that they don't want to be left behind by developments in social media information. This phenomenon is known as FOMO where teenagers who are affected by it always want to appear updated and don't want to be left behind with developments, whether it's fashion or trending styles. Fomo is an abbreviation of Fear Of Missing Out. Generally, teenagers feel Fomo when they miss a trend in their social life. Fomo has a negative impact because affected individuals or teenagers try to satisfy themselves with the development of social media. Fomo will become a syndrome where teenagers lose their identity due to low self-identity, if they don't follow the trend, they will feel confused and give rise to an attitude of feeling ostracized.

Dumping, characterized by selling goods at below-market prices in export markets, poses significant ethical and economic concerns in global trade. Islamic law (shariah), with its emphasis on justice, equity, and harm reduction, provides a unique lens for analyzing such practices. This review synthesizes insights from scholarly works to explore the compatibility of Islamic legal principles with anti-dumping measures. Key findings include Islamic jurisprudence’s proactive stance against predatory pricing (siyasah al-ighraq) for its potential to harm market stability and marginalize smaller producers. Studies show that Islamic law prioritizes public welfare (maslahah) and promotes ethical market behaviors, offering alternative regulatory perspectives to address trade malpractice. Through case studies like Indonesia’s WTO defense on paper dumping and comparative analyses with Saudi trade laws, this review highlights the robust ethical foundation Islamic law brings to contemporary international trade debates. The synthesis concludes by advocating integrative frameworks to harmonize Islamic ethics with global trade governance.

Adolescence is a transitional period from childhood to adulthood, where individuals begin to question the phenomena that occur around them to form self-worth. One of the phenomena that is developing among adolescents is the hedonistic lifestyle, which is increasingly influenced by advances in technology and social media. In this lifestyle, the search for instant pleasure becomes the main goal, which often encourages adolescents to pursue pleasure without considering the long-term impacts. Social media, which displays a glamorous lifestyle and unrealistic standards of pleasure, plays a major role in influencing adolescents' consumer behavior and desire to follow certain trends. This phenomenon is influenced by social factors, family environment, and technological advances, which create behavioral patterns that are more oriented towards instant pleasure. The impacts are seen in social, mental, and educational aspects, such as reduced deep emotional relationships between adolescents, mental health problems such as anxiety and depression, and decreased motivation to learn that can interfere with their academic development. However, a hedonistic lifestyle can also encourage creativity and the development of social skills. This study aims to explore more deeply the causal factors, impacts, and challenges that arise due to changes in the hedonistic lifestyle among adolescents, as well as efforts to overcome its negative impacts through character education and the formation of a supportive social environment.

The utilization of natural resources in the current era is an important concern, especially in supporting environmental sustainability. The development of awareness of environmental issues also affects the economic cycle, especially the production process of environmentally friendly goods. The running of environmentally friendly goods production in Indonesia is evidenced by the existence of various product innovations that utilize waste or natural materials, one of which is JEcoware. The existence of JEcoware is also a means of supporting business actors to carry out sustainable product innovations. One of the popular JEcoware product innovations is the utilization of teak leaves and used cardboard. The type of method used is descriptive observation with a qualitative approach. All data for this observation was obtained through literature reviews by analyzing information from various sources, as well as through the analysis of production practices carried out periodically at JEcoware. Based on the results of the discussion, it is known that the utilization of teak leaves is influenced by the season and the availability of materials to produce JEcoware products. The change of seasons also affects the quality of teak leaves due to irregular rainfall. Therefore, seasonal changes significantly impact the quality of raw materials and the JEcoware production process, ultimately influencing the production of high-quality and sustainable products.
