The Effect of Product Display on Consumer Attention and Purchase Intention in Europe: A Comparative Analysis of Western and Eastern Europe

Product displays play a pivotal role in shaping consumer behavior in retail environments, influencing attention and purchase intentions. This study examines the differential effects of product display strategies on consumer attention and purchase intention in Western and Eastern Europe, exploring variations driven by cultural, economic, and technological factors. Using a mixed- methods approach, including eye-tracking experiments, surveys, and statistical analysis, we compare consumer responses to ordered versus disordered displays, in-store versus online settings, and the influence of visual merchandising elements. Results indicate significant regional differences, with Western European consumers showing greater sensitivity to ordered displays and Eastern European consumers responding more strongly to vivid, innovative displays. Implications for retailers and marketers are discussed, along with suggestions for future research.

Survey Paper on Advancements in Dysarthric Speech Recognition Systems

Dysarthria, a motor speech disorder resulting from neurological injuries, severely impairs intelligibility, making automatic speech recognition (ASR) a vital tool for enhancing communication. Over the years, significant research has explored computational approaches to improve ASR performance for dysarthric speech, from early rule-based models to deep learning architectures. This survey presents a comprehensive review of the evolution of ASR techniques tailored to dysarthric speech, categorizing methods by architecture type (HMM, DNN, CNN, LSTM, Transformers), learning paradigm (supervised, self-supervised, meta-learning), and input modality (audio-only, multimodal). The study examines the role of acoustic features like MFCC, PLP, and raw waveform-based learning. It compares key models, including Wav2Vec2.0, TDNN, and UTran-DSR, across UA-Speech, TORGO, and CommonVoice datasets. A critical evaluation of strategies like speaker adaptation, transfer learning, end-to-end pipelines, and contrastive learning is provided, along with their impact on accuracy and generalization. The paper highlights emerging trends such as emotion-aware ASR, multimodal fusion, and personalized adaptation, while addressing persistent challenges including data scarcity, speaker variability, and real-time deployment. This survey aims to provide a clear roadmap of the progress and ongoing efforts in dysarthric ASR, guiding future research toward more inclusive and intelligent speech interfaces.

Glamour Industry and Global Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought difficult situations for citizens of nations across the world. While this pandemic affects different dimensions of life and society, this paper examines the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the entertainment industry of India. The entertainment industry was almost hit when the lockdown was imposed all over the country. Film and TV producers were under pressure to mitigate the impact of delayed release schedules, closure of theatres, and production stoppages. This industry is one of the famous industries of India, which has had to face many losses as well. Rapid changes in consumer behaviour and consumption, cancellation of events and sports, and cuts in advertisement expenditure have impacted a lot of companies. The result of the pandemic on these industries has ranged from lowered attendance at film festivals and music concerts, disruptions in film distribution, to delayed or cancelled movie releases and curtailed on-location film shoots. We could also see how different actors were coming up and helping the government with funds and posting leads on the internet to help the people in need. Also, there were many of them who were seen as breaking the pandemic laws implemented by the government. However, a lack of policies at the national level and fewer regulatory measures from the government have further complicated this issue.

Treatment of Kitechen Waste Water by Phytoremediation Method Using Canna Indica Plant

The treatment of wastewater is a critical environmental issue, and Phytoremediation is a promising method for addressing this challenge. This project looks at how plants might help clean dirty water. It talks about how this idea works and where it can be used. The study looks at how well plants can clean different kinds of used water, like water from homes, farms, and factories. It also looks at what things can make this process better or worse like the kind of plants used, what’s in the water, and how much nutrition is there for the plants. The paper also talks about the good sides and the not-so-good sides of using plants this way. In the end, it says using plants to clean water could be a smart, low-cost, and nature-friendly way, and that more work should be done to make it even better in the future. Overall, this method could help both the environment and the economy.

Mechanical Performance of Concrete with EOF Steel Slag as Partial Replacement for Coarse Aggregates

All Steel manufacturing industry generates by-products today, and one such by-product is Energy Optimized Furnace slag, i.e, EOF, steel slag. But EOF steel slag is less used in cement manufacturing. This study examines the feasibility of using EOF steel slag to replace natural aggregates in concrete, with the intention of minimizing waste disposal and conserving natural resources. Standardized tests were conducted to evaluate the physical, chemical, and mechanical characteristics of EOF steel slag. The results thus obtained were compared with those of natural aggregates. Concrete mix proportions were formulated in this research to obtain M30 grade concrete. The natural coarse aggregate in the designed mix was replaced with EOF steel slag aggregate at different percentages, from 0% to 100% in steps of 10%. Experimental studies were carried out to analyze the properties of fresh and hardened concrete, such as workability, compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, and flexural strength, for various replacement percentages of EOF steel slag aggregate. The best replacement ratio was found considering the outcomes of fresh and hardened concrete characteristics. Moreover, the correlation between flexural strength, splitting tensile strength, and compressive strength was investigated. The mechanical characteristics of EOF steel slag aggregates are similar to those of natural coarse aggregates. Nevertheless, the greater water absorption and surface roughness of EOF slag affect the workability of concrete. The mechanical characteristics of concrete made using a full replacement of natural aggregate with EOF steel slag are quite similar to those of normal concrete. From this study, one learns that concrete made from 100% replacement of EOF Steel slag as coarse aggregate has better strength characteristics. By utilizing EOF steel slag as a substitute for natural coarse aggregate in concrete, the issue of unsafe, environment-degrading practice of dumping steel slag can be avoided. In addition, an industrial byproduct like steel slag is utilized in an eco-friendly way. Use of EOF steel slag in concrete is an eco-friendly, useful, and cost-saving step. Use of EOF steel slag in concrete is an eco-friendly, useful, and cost-saving step.
