Among the many approaches to studying color harmony tried so far, a relatively recent method is to leverage a large number of human-created and ranked color palettes, such as those hosted at colourlovers.com. Analysis of these large datasets could provide insights into the nature of color harmony but is usually overwhelming because of the sheer number of slightly differing colors. It is possible to quantize the colors in these color palettes to a manageable set of discrete colors without significantly affecting the harmony perception of the palette. Considering the quantized colors as words and the palettes as sentences, it is possible to form and compute the probabilities of n-Grams in the sentences. In this study, we create bigrams and trigrams from the corpus of highly ranked color palettes and use them to predict new color combinations.  Respondents were asked to like or dislike the patterns colored with these color combinations. It was found that the new color combinations thus formed were almost as harmonious and pleasing as the originals.

In the development of massive activities, transportation is needed to carry out mobility so as to facilitate each individual in carrying out his daily work and activities. The vehicle used by most people is a motorized vehicle, this vehicle is a vehicle that is used and obtained by purchasing it through cash or credit. In the case of buying on credit itself, there are many problems, namely the debtor who pays the installments is not necessarily smooth in making payments, this certainly creates losses for the creditor who provides the motorbike on credit.

In the current era of very tight business competition, companies are required to improve their financial performance. To be able to assess the company's financial performance, all interested parties need to know the company's financial condition as seen from the company's financial reports. To assess the company's financial performance, it can be shown through the financial reports presented by the company management. The importance of the liquidity ratio for financial performance is because liquidity has a fairly close relationship with the company's ability to earn profits (profitability), namely liquidity shows the level of availability of working capital needed for operational activities. Having sufficient working capital makes it possible for the company to operate optimally and not experience difficulties due to the financial crisis. However, excessive working capital actually shows that there are unproductive funds and gives the impression that the company is releasing them to make a profit. Ideally, the company's working capital should be available in sufficient quantities to finance the company's various activities, which means there is no shortage of capital and no idle resources. In this way, the company's ability to improve its financial performance on its assets is maximized, and the current ratio is one of the components of the liquidity ratio used in this research.

One of the causes of acne vulgaris is stress. According to the WHO (World Health Organization), almost more than 350 million people in the world experience stress, while in Indonesia, the population aged more than 15 years who experience mental emotional disorders or stress reaches 37,728 people based on Riskesdas (Riset Kesehatan Dasar) 2018. Stress can stimulate acne vulgaris by activating the HPA (Hypothalamic Pituitary Adrenal) thereby increasing CRH (Corticotrophin-Releasing Hormone), CRH will increase the production of androgen hormones which trigger the formation of sebum which can clog the sebaceous glands. Acne vulgaris have a psychological impact on teenagers such as dissatisfaction with appearance, lack of confidence, and social dysfunctions like reducing/avoiding social interaction with peers and the opposite sex. Therefore, this study was conducted to find out whether there is a correlation between stress levels and the severity of acne vulgaris at Class III Students of SMAN 1 Makassar in 2021/2022 Period. A cross-sectional, observational analytical methodology is used in this work. The sample size for the study was 102 students. In this study, a dermatologist evaluated the physical severity of acne vulgaris, and Perceived Stress Scale questionnaire was used to evaluate the level of stress. The p-value obtained from the Spearman's rho test employed in this inquiry was 0.317. to come to the conclusion that stress levels and severity of acne vulgaris at Class III Students of SMAN 1 Makassar in 2021/2022 Period are unrelated.
