The impact of artificial intelligence in our society is important due to the innovation of processes through data science to know the academic and sociodemographic factors that contribute to late payments in university students, to identify them and make timely decisions for implementing prevention and correction programs, avoiding student dropout due to this economic problem, and ensuring success in their education in a meaningful and focused way. In this sense, the research aims to compare the performance metrics of classification models for late payments in students of a private university by using AutoML algorithms from various existing platforms and solutions such as AutoKeras, AutoGluon, HyperOPT, MLJar, and H2O in a data set consisting of 8,495 records and the application of data balancing techniques. From the implementation and execution of various algorithms, similar metrics have been obtained based on the parameters and optimization functions used automatically by each tool, providing better performance to the H2O platform through the Stacked Ensemble algorithm with metrics accuracy = 0.778. F1 = 0.870, recall = 0.904 and precision = 0.839. The research can be extended to other contexts or areas of knowledge due to the growing interest in automated machine learning, providing researchers with a valuable tool in data science without the need for deep knowledge.

With the continuous progress of technology, the subject of life science plays an increasingly important role, among which the application of artificial intelligence in the medical field has attracted more and more attention. Bell facial palsy, a neurological ailment characterized by facial muscle weakness or paralysis, exerts a profound impact on patients' facial expressions and masticatory abilities, thereby inflicting considerable distress upon their overall quality of life and mental well-being. In this study, we designed a facial attribute recognition model specifically for individuals with Bell's facial palsy. The model utilizes an enhanced SSD network and scientific computing to perform a graded assessment of the patients' condition. By replacing the VGG network with a more efficient backbone, we improved the model's accuracy and significantly reduced its computational burden. The results show that the improved SSD network has an average precision of 87.9% in the classification of light, middle and severe facial palsy, and effectively performs the classification of patients with facial palsy, where scientific calculations also increase the precision of the classification. This is also one of the most significant contributions of this article, which provides intelligent means and objective data for future research on intelligent diagnosis and treatment as well as progressive rehabilitation.

How to use AI to Predict Success of Email Campaigns Testing email marketing effectiveness is an active research area because email remains an important channel for customer acquisition and retention. Email open rates are a key measure of campaign effectiveness. Scholars identify three predictors of open rates: recipients' characteristics, headline characteristics, and sending time. The industry-favored A/B testing has three drawbacks: it takes hours, depletes lists available for main campaigns, and limits testable email versions because of sample size and power requirements. These limitations continue to motivate researchers to build and improve open rate prediction models. Although they reduce testing time, models developed in marketing use only recipients' past open rates as predictors. By contrast, models in computer science typically use only email headline characteristics as predictors. Consequently, current models' open rate prediction errors are high. The authors address the limitations of both literature streams and use all three predictors and machine learning to build an email open rate predictor (EMOP) based on their universal emotion detector (UED). They test EMOP on data from four brands and set state-of-the-art prediction results. Experimental validation shows that EMOP can pick the best headline from a set of professionally generated headlines. Also, UED ranked second at the SemEval 2018 Task 1 E-c competition as of January 5, 2023. History: Olivier Toubia served as the senior editor for this article.
