A geographically and demographically diverse growing global community of learners taking to MOOCs signals that ‘one size fits all’ will not hold water in the MOOCs realm. Plurality of learners makes it imperative to understand the customer segments and their specific needs. Understanding customer segmentation can enable companies in the MOOCs sector to design MOOCs to cater to the needs of diverse customer segments. This will help companies to achieve their objective of achieving high order of scalability in this sector. This study endeavors to identify the customer segments for MOOCs using the technique of cluster analysis. One major criticism of MOOCs is the high attrition rate of learners. Given the plethora of MOOCs available and their emerging popularity, the time is ripe to understand customer profiles and their preferences to make the M (massive) in the acronym achievable.","PeriodicalId":426354,"journal":{"name":"2022 Interdisciplinary Research in Technology and Management (IRTM)","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115407579","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study departed from an exploratory question in the data mining context: “What information can be revealed regarding women entrepreneurs in e-commerce?” This study adopted a data mining approach, implemented through the Cross-Industry Standard Process for Data Mining framework, using Knime Analytics Platform as a data analysis tool. The context of data analysis is in Indonesia, and the unit of analysis is a province in which the e-commerce related data were aggregated per province. The result revealed that women e-commerce entrepreneurs were likely to have higher educational backgrounds and were younger than men entrepreneurs. In provinces where the percentage of e-commerce firms is low, women entrepreneurs contributed more than men. The finding provided evidence of the role of women e-commerce entrepreneurs in the country context. The policymakers and agents promoting woman empowerment might focus on facilitating women to enter e-commerce, especially in provinces with lowe-commerce adoption.","PeriodicalId":426354,"journal":{"name":"2022 Interdisciplinary Research in Technology and Management (IRTM)","volume":"109 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124740925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Currently, the use of technology for credit score is not universally adopted by financial institutions because there is lack of evidence to ensure the effectiveness of this alternate method. Thus, the aim of this research is to recognize the impact or effect on the financial institutions which they have experienced post integrating AI in their institution for generating credit scores for the lending process. The data was collected from 68 Credit Officers/Credit Managers working in Financial Services Provider companies. The semi structured questionnaire was used to understand the use of AI and the perception of Credit Managers towards using AI in the lending process. The primary and secondary data were analysed to evaluate the impact of using AI in calculating Credit score. The research suggested that the financial institutions consider time saving with lesser workforce, Increase in Revenues and Business, Default rate reduction and Skill upgrade along with not breaching privacy of their customers. The FinTech companies can understand the factors in a better manner to develop their products for the financial services providers. And the financial institutions can make a better use of AI to reach out to more prospective customers and provide better.","PeriodicalId":426354,"journal":{"name":"2022 Interdisciplinary Research in Technology and Management (IRTM)","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129377237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

So, it is very important that all the aspects related to the electric motor should be carefully designed and modelled. In the case of a pure electric vehicle, the motor losses are the major contributor among all other losses. So, it becomes inevitable to minimize those losses and extract maximum possible efficiency, in order to prominently reduce the energy consumption of the vehicle. In this paper, an overall optimized loss equation of an Induction motor is proposed. Modified Particle Swarm Optimization is applied to get the desired value of stator flux reference, electromagnetic torque, and operating speed such that the motor losses are minimum. These values can be employed as reference control signals to implement control strategies of a power train in an electric vehicle. The optimization is realistically validated by obtaining the required motor parameters that are commercially available from JMAG, in order to have good accuracy and reliability.","PeriodicalId":426354,"journal":{"name":"2022 Interdisciplinary Research in Technology and Management (IRTM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125925180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
