An Exploratory Study on Cross-Belt Sorters in the Delivery Supply Chain Industry to Enhance Operational Efficiency
This research examines the effects of using cross-belt sorters on the efficiency of logistics and distribution operations in Metro cities in India thriving supply chain businesses. Due to the rising need for effective goods management and the growing intricacy of supply chains, there is an increasing need for cutting-edge solutions to improve efficiency and save expenses. Cross-belt sorters have become a favourable option, providing automated sorting capabilities that speed up order fulfilment procedures. This paper investigates the application of cross-belt sorters in specific logistics facilities in India using Qualitative & Quantitative techniques. By doing Quantitative & Qualitative analysis, this examines the degree to which these solutions enhance workflow, reduce mistakes, and enhance overall operational efficiency. The study understands the type of cross belt sorts are using in the supply chain operation in logistic operation. The results demonstrate significant improvements in

Many companies still fail to see the value of influencer marketing, star ratings, and customer reviews due to ignorance and a lack of understanding. Researchers are interested in the topic of The Relevance of Influencer Marketing, Ratings and Customer Reviews on Purchasing Decisions because it shows how important it is to have a strategy that combines influencer marketing with positive customer interactions and a good product reputation to influence consumer purchasing decisions. Preprocessing, feature extraction, and model training are all part of the suggested method. Additional measures were taken to guarantee the data's accuracy and relevancy during the SQL data preprocessing phase. Word bags, TF-IDF, and chi-square are the building blocks of feature extraction. During the whole training process, the Prophet-ARIMA-LSTM model was continually employed. This novel approach outperforms ARIMA and LSTM with an average accuracy of 92.72%.

By analyzing the performance of machine learning-powered chatbots and virtual assistants, this approach seeks to automate customer support. To keep up with the ever-increasing need for scalable, efficient, and quick customer service, businesses are increasingly relying on DL and other innovative technologies. These technologies are being utilized to enhance customer support operations, and this proposal compares their effectiveness to that of more traditional types of assistance. Preprocessing, feature selection, and model training are all part of the suggested method. The purpose of preprocessing is to convert it into identically lengthened sequences of numbers. Problems with intuition and specification make up feature selection. During the whole training process, the Stacked A-GRU-BiLSTM model was continually employed. Compared to GRU and BiLSTM, this cutting-edge approach achieves a mean accuracy of 93.29%.
