Background: The development of industrial technology in the Industry 4.0 era has encouraged the implementation of intelligent monitoring systems to improve machine reliability and operational efficiency. However, machine fault diagnosis systems based on artificial intelligence often face limitations in terms of interpretability because the models used are complex and difficult to explain. Objective: This study aims to develop a deep learning-based industrial machine fault diagnosis system integrated with an Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) approach to improve diagnostic accuracy while providing interpretable insights for users. Method: The research method involves collecting data from industrial machine sensors consisting of vibration signals, temperature measurements, and acoustic signals, followed by data preprocessing and feature extraction processes. The processed data are then used to train a deep learning-based diagnostic model, after which explainability methods such as SHAP or LIME are applied to analyze the contribution of each feature to the model’s prediction results. Model performance is evaluated using accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score metrics. Results: The results indicate that the proposed deep learning model achieves better performance compared to conventional machine learning methods such as Support Vector Machine and Random Forest. Furthermore, the explainability analysis reveals that vibration amplitude, increases in machine component temperature, and anomalies in acoustic signals are the main factors influencing machine fault detection. Therefore, the proposed system not only improves the accuracy of machine fault diagnosis but also provides transparency in the decision-making process, thereby supporting the implementation of predictive maintenance in smart manufacturing environments.

This study aims to classify customer payment methods at 17 Coffee & Eatery using machine learning algorithms, namely Naïve Bayes and Support Vector Machine (SVM). The increasing use of digital and non-cash payments has generated large volumes of transaction data that are rarely analyzed optimally, even though such data contain valuable information for business decision making. This research used secondary transaction data collected from January to March 2025, consisting of 10,147 transaction records. The dataset included several attributes such as order time, payment time, transaction type, total sales, number of items, and payment method. Data preprocessing was performed through data cleaning, feature engineering, normalization, and label encoding before being divided into training and testing sets with an 80:20 ratio. The Naïve Bayes and SVM models were then trained and evaluated using accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and ROC–AUC metrics. The results show that both algorithms were able to classify payment methods effectively, but SVM achieved higher accuracy and more stable performance than Naïve Bayes. These findings indicate that SVM is more suitable for handling complex and heterogeneous transaction patterns. The implementation of machine learning for transaction classification can support more efficient financial management and data-driven decision making for small and medium enterprises in the culinary sector.

Anesthesiology and emergency care require rapid and accurate clinical decision-making. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers substantial potential to support triage, monitoring, and decision-making in critical and emergency anesthesiology settings. This scoping review maps the use of AI in clinical decision-making and emergency patient management in anesthesiology and identifies existing research gaps. A literature search was conducted in ScienceDirect, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar for articles in Indonesian or English published between 2020 and 2025. Study selection followed Tricco’s scoping review framework, and methodological quality was assessed using Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) tools. Ten articles met the inclusion criteria. AI was shown to improve triage accuracy and efficiency (predictive accuracy up to 99.1% and reductions in waiting time of around 30%). Machine learning models effectively predicted critical care needs and emergency risk, while AI-based clinical decision support systems (CDSS) enhanced the speed and quality of clinical decisions. Key challenges include data bias, ethical and privacy issues, clinician readiness, and integration with hospital information systems. AI and CDSS have strong potential to improve patient safety and clinical decision-making in emergency anesthesiology. Strengthening AI literacy, supportive regulation, and transparent, context-appropriate predictive models are needed for safe and sustainable implementation.

This comparative study analyzes the models of character education by comparing the implementation of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) in Finland and the Akhlak (Moral) Curriculum within Islamic Religious Education (PAI) in Indonesia. Modern education demands not only cognitive intelligence but also emotional and moral maturity, highlighted by rising issues like bullying and mental health problems in adolescents. Finland's success is attributed to the strong integration of SEL, a psychological method focusing on five core competencies (self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making) that fosters a positive school climate. In contrast, Indonesia's PAI Akhlak Curriculum aims to form character rooted in theological-spiritual values (piety and obedience). Using a descriptive qualitative comparative method through literature review and content analysis, the study found that despite sharing the core objective of cultivating moral character , their foundations differ: SEL is secular-humanistic for well-being, while Akhlak is theological-spiritual. Furthermore, Finland's system employs a low-pressure, integrated, formative evaluation, supported by teacher autonomy, while Indonesia's PAI implementation faces challenges from a dominant focus on quantitative cognitive assessment. The study recommends that PAI adopt the structured SEL framework as a methodological bridge to translate Akhlak values into concrete student behavior and promote active, affect-focused learning.

This article discusses the modernity of educational instruments, along with the phenomenon of technological progress, particularly the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI), and its implications for educators in the 21st century. Rapid advances in AI have led to fundamental shifts in teaching strategies and resources, shifting from traditional models to personalized and adaptive learning environments. Through automated assessments, curriculum customization, and the implementation of virtual assistants that enhance accessibility, artificial intelligence (AI) in education aims to improve efficiency and effectiveness. However, this modernity requires educators in the 21st century to change. Teachers now play the role of facilitators, designers of learning experiences, and mentors in ethics, in addition to being providers of knowledge. Teachers need to master AI literacy and focus on teaching students the four Cs of the 21st century: communication, creativity, critical thinking, and teamwork. The integration of AI raises ethical issues related to data privacy, the digital divide, and the dangers of plagiarism, but it also offers significant potential. Therefore, the effective integration of AI technology with irreplaceable human qualities is crucial for the success of contemporary educational technology. AI is an important tool for educators in the 21st century to develop a generation of technologically literate and moral individuals.
