Abstract

In modern, high-speed work settings, the significance of mental health disorders is increasingly acknowledged as a pressing health issue, with potential adverse consequences for organizations, including reduced productivity and increased absenteeism. Over the past few years, various mental health management solutions, such as biofeedback applications, have surfaced as promising avenues to improve employees' mental well-being.

Abstract
Spatio-temporal prediction tasks play a crucial role in facilitating informed decision-making through anticipatory insights. By accurately predicting future outcomes, the ability to strategize, preemptively address risks, and minimize their potential impact is enhanced. The precision in forecasting spatial and temporal patterns holds significant potential for optimizing resource allocation, land utilization, and infrastructure development. While existing review and survey papers predominantly focus on specific forecasting domains such as intelligent transportation, urban planning, pandemics, disease prediction, climate and weather forecasting, environmental data prediction, and agricultural yield projection, limited attention has been devoted to comprehensive surveys encompassing multiple objects concurrently. This article addresses this gap by comprehensively analyzing techniques employed in traffic, pandemics, disease forecasting, climate and weather prediction, agricultural yield estimation, and environmental data prediction. Furthermore, it elucidates challenges inherent in spatio-temporal forecasting and outlines potential avenues for future research exploration.

Abstract
This study investigates the impact of class imbalance and its potential interplay with other factors on machine learning models for transportation mode classification, utilising two real-world GPS trajectory datasets. A Random Forest model serves as the baseline, demonstrating strong performance on the relatively balanced dataset but experiencing significant degradation on the imbalanced one. To mitigate this effect, we explore various state-of-the-art class imbalance learning techniques, finding only marginal improvements. Resampling the fairly balanced dataset to replicate the imbalanced distribution suggests that factors beyond class imbalance are at play. We hypothesise and provide preliminary evidence for class overlap as a potential contributing factor, underscoring the need for further investigation into the broader range of classification difficulty factors. Our findings highlight the importance of balanced class distributions and a deeper understanding of factors such as class overlap in developing robust and generalisable models for transportation mode detection.
