(AAPL), Cisco Systems, Inc. (CSCO), Meta Platforms, Inc. (META), Microsoft Corporation (MSFT), and Tesla, Inc. (TSLA). The dataset spans from July 2019 to July 2023, with models evaluated using key performance metrics such as Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), and R-squared (R²) values. The results show that GRU models consistently achieve the lowest MAE, indicating superior precision in stock price prediction. In contrast, LSTM models, while showing slightly higher error rates, are particularly effective in capturing long-term trends and the variance in stock prices, as evidenced by higher R² values. Transformer models, which utilize self-attention mechanisms, showed promise in handling complex relationships but struggled with the volatility of certain stocks, such as TSLA, leading to higher errors and lower R². These findings provide valuable insights for financial analysts and investment professionals, offering guidance on selecting the most suitable deep learning models based on specific market conditions and forecasting needs. This study also lays the groundwork for further exploration into model optimization and hybrid approaches for more robust financial forecasting.</p> 2025-05-25T00:00:00+01:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Asaad Sendi, Foyzul Hoque, Md Tamjidul Hoque https://journals.scholarpublishing.org/index.php/TMLAI/article/view/18801 The Future of Freight Pricing: AI Negotiation Agents Transforming RFPs and Spot Markets 2025-05-10T06:36:53+01:00 Mukesh Kumar kansal.muk@gmail.com <p>The freight industry demands rapid, equitable pricing solutions as 20% of loads move via volatile spot markets where shippers manually check rates through emails and bids and the rest rely on slow RFP processes. AI-powered negotiation agents revolutionize both by deploying real-time rate benchmarking, dynamic discount negotiation, and risk-adjusted pricing. For spot freight (1 in 5 loads), agents instantly align quotes with $150 billion in market data, keeping rates within 5% of the median ($50-$100/load savings), replacing hours of emails with seconds of precision. In RFPs, this shrinks timelines from months to days. Agents also negotiate spot discounts e.g., 7% off $1,000/load for 200 annual spot loads ($14,000 savings) and embed risks like 15% fuel swings into terms (e.g., 4% surcharge), ensuring stability across both channels. These innovations cut manual effort, boost transparency, and optimize profitability for shippers, brokers, and carriers. Despite hurdles like data access and adoption, AI negotiation agents herald a pricing future that unifies spot and contract logistics into an agile, data-driven ecosystem.</p> 2025-05-25T00:00:00+01:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Mukesh Kumar https://journals.scholarpublishing.org/index.php/TMLAI/article/view/18845 Industry 4.0, AI and Big Data: Technological Progress and Ethical Responsibilities 2025-05-15T00:54:53+01:00 Tara Vickers tara.vickers@ubalt.edu Mohammed Ketel mketel@ubalt.edu <p>Marking a new phase in digital transformation, Industry 4.0—also referred to as the Fourth Industrial Revolution—incorporates advanced technologies like IoT, AI, Big Data, robotics, cloud computing, and cybersecurity to revolutionize production systems, making them smarter, more efficient, and more flexible.

El-Haridi nourhanelharidi@gmail.com <p>The idea of artificial intelligence has changed as a result of technological developments and a better comprehension of the human mind. It now focuses on simulating human behavior rather than just carrying out intricate computations. As a result, there are numerous initiatives to incorporate AI technology into the architecture domain, interior designs encompassing design, administration, construction, real estate, and urban planning. The majority of AI solutions in this field are only somewhat intelligent at the moment, and crucial jobs still need a great deal of human supervision and involvement. There is Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Architectural Design and Construction wish provide more opportunities and challenges and could help in shaping a new design process through the integration of the artificial intelligent uses with the design process. This research highlights analytics for the ability of AI in Architecture by offering a new approach that could serve as new guidelines in designing building and inhabit our world</p> 2025-05-25T00:00:00+01:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Nourhane M. El-Haridi https://journals.scholarpublishing.org/index.php/TMLAI/article/view/18855 Detailed Analysis of AI Agents in Carrier Outreach for Freight Brokerage and Carrier Operations 2025-05-16T20:51:34+01:00 Mukesh Kumar kansal.muk@gmail.com <p>In the $1 trillion freight brokerage industry, securing the right truck at the right time and price depends on labour-intensive carrier outreach, where reps send daily bid emails to 1,000–3,000 carriers in a "spray and pray" approach, yielding only 10–15% booking rates after 4–6 hours of manual effort (Transport Topics, 2023). This paper investigates how AI agents, powered by Large Language Models (LLMs), can enhance this process by up to 80% in efficiency. These agents automate bid distribution by generating personalized emails using TMS data, parse carrier replies with 95% accuracy (NLP Benchmarks, 2024), respond to 80% of queries instantly, and negotiate rates in real time against $150 billion in DAT benchmarks (DAT, 2024), integrating seamlessly with load boards. Simulations of 20 loads across 2,000 carriers show response rates rising from 10% to 20%, bookings from 15% to 25%, and time dropping to 48–72 minutes daily, saving $50–$100/load ($1,000–$2,000 daily) based on $3.50/gallon fuel costs (EIA, 2024). In this automated world, brokers cover loads 25% faster, while carriers receive tailored bids, cutting outreach effort by 50%. Despite 6–12 month integration challenges (Gartner, 2024), AI agents transform carrier outreach into a proactive, data-driven ecosystem, optimizing the 20% of freight on spot markets (DAT, 2024) and beyond in a competitive landscape.</p> 2025-06-10T00:00:00+01:00 Copyright (c) 2025 Mukesh Kumar
