Pneumonia is a type of acute respiratory infection caused by microbes, and viruses that affect the lungs. Pneumonia is the leading cause of infant mortality in the world, accounting for 81% of deaths in children under five years of age. There are approximately 1.2 million cases of pneumonia in children under five years of age and 180 000 died in 2016. Early detection of pneumonia can help reduce mortality rates. Therefore, this paper presents four convolutional neural network (CNN) models to detect pneumonia from chest X-ray images. CNNs were trained to classify X-ray images into two types: normal and pneumonia, using several convolutional layers. The four models used in this work are pre-trained: VGG16, VGG19, ResNet50, and InceptionV3. The measures that were used for the evaluation of the results are Accuracy, recall, and F1-Score. The models were trained and validated with the dataset. The results showed that the Inceptionv3 model achieved the best performance with 72.9% accuracy, recall 93.7%, and F1-Score 82%. This indicates that CNN models are suitable for detecting pneumonia with high accuracy.

Decent work and economic growth are fundamental elements for the sustainable development of a society, with Sustainable Development Goal 8 (SDG8) being one of the key objectives of the United Nations’ 2030 Agenda. The 5G network has great potential to contribute significantly to the achievement of SDG8, offering faster and more reliable connectivity, which opens up new possibilities for innovation, operational efficiency, and job creation. The present study aimed to investigate the role of 5G technologies concerning decent work and economic growth (SDG8). As part of the method, 265 articles extracted from main databases such as Scopus, IEEExplore, and ScienceDirect were analyzed using the PRISMA methodology, resulting in 74 relevant articles after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. As a result, a greater contribution to the use of the 5G network was identified in sectors such as manufacturing, health, and transportation, generating greater economic growth and job creation. It was also found that the technological applications with the greatest contributions are “Internet of Things” and “Artificial intelligence”. Finally, it was concluded that the results of this review are useful for future research on technologies that support 5G networks, contributing to economic growth and equitable and sustainable decent work in a wide range of sectors and rural areas.

Today, web content such as images, text, speeches, and videos are user-generated, and social networks have become increasingly popular as a means for people to share their ideas and opinions. One of the most popular social media for expressing their feelings towards events that occur is Twitter. The main objective of this study is to classify and analyze the content of the affiliates of the Pension and Funds Administration (AFP) published on Twitter. This study incorporates machine learning techniques for data mining, cleaning, tokenization, exploratory analysis, classification, and sentiment analysis. To apply the study and examine the data, Twitter was used with the hashtag #afp, followed by descriptive and exploratory analysis, including metrics of the tweets. Finally, a content analysis was carried out, including word frequency calculation, lemmatization, and classification of words by sentiment, emotions, and word cloud. The study uses tweets published in the month of May 2022. Sentiment distribution was also performed in three polarity classes: positive, neutral, and negative, representing 22%, 4%, and 74% respectively. Supported by the unsupervised learning method and the K-Means algorithm, we were able to determine the number of clusters using the elbow method. Finally, the sentiment analysis and the clusters formed indicate that there is a very pronounced dispersion, the distances are not very similar, even though the data standardization work was carried out.

Unit short-term memory (LSTM) is a type of recurrent neural network (RNN) whose sequence-based models are being used in text generation and/or prediction tasks, question answering, and classification systems due to their ability to learn long-term dependencies. The present research integrates the LSTM network and dropout technique to generate a text from a corpus as input, a model is developed to find the best way to extract the words from the context. For training the model, the poem "La Ciudad y los perros" which is composed of 128,600 words is used as input data. The poem was divided into two data sets, 38.88% for training and the remaining 61.12% for testing the model. The proposed model was tested in two variants: word importance and context. The results were evaluated in terms of the semantic proximity of the generated text to the given context.

Currently in the world the use of technology is increasing and even more so in the time of Covid-19, when digitization is vital, essentially in education, more technological tools are being used to improve academic performance and learning. The study that was carried out is a review of the scientific literature, 127 articles were collected from the different databases; IEEE Xplore, ScienceDirect, EBSCO, Scielo, and Scopus. Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the systematization used, only 53 have been used, allowing the identification of technologies that improve the academic performance of different students around the world.
