    Conflict in Thailand's peripheral regions remains a persistent challenge, particularly in provinces such as Ubon Ratchathani, where inequalities, cultural marginalization, and resource pressures intersect to shape local tensions. Despite growing attention to conflict analysis, existing approaches often struggle to combine contextual understanding with predictive capability, limiting their usefulness for timely and effective policy intervention. To address this gap, this research introduces a hybrid framework integrating the Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) method with the Random Forest (RF) algorithm. Using primary data from 400 respondents across urban and rural communities in Ubon Ratchathani, the framework combines stakeholder-informed causal mapping with data-driven prediction. DEMATEL identifies and structures relationships among key conflict dimensions, while RF evaluates and predicts these relationships using empirical data. The findings reveal that cultural and identity issues are the primary drivers of conflict, shaping political and economic marginalization, whereas resource-related conflicts emerge as downstream effects. The RF model demonstrates excellent predictive performance (MSE = 0.0120; RMSE = 0.1097), indicating that these relationships can be reliably translated into predictive insights. This enables policymakers to move beyond reactive responses toward early identification of conflict risks and more targeted interventions. Effective interventions, however, must be coordinated across sectors and tailored to local contexts to achieve lasting impacts. By linking causal understanding with predictive capability, the proposed framework offers a practical tool for conflict monitoring and more inclusive governance aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). While promising, the framework should be tested in other regions to assess its broader applicability.

    Diabetic retinopathy is a prevalent condition and a major public health concern due to its detrimental impact on eyesight. Diabetes is a root cause of its development and damages small blood vessels caused by prolonged high blood sugar levels. The degenerative consequences of diabetic retinopathy are irrevocable if not diagnosed in the early stages of its progression. This ailment triggers the development of retinal lesions, which can be identified for diagnosis and prognosis. However, lesion detection is challenging due to their similarity in intensity profiles to other retinal features, inconsistent sizes, and random locations. This research evaluates a custom deep learning network for classifying retinal images and compares it with the state-of-the-art classifiers. The novel preprocessing method is introduced to reduce the complexity of the diagnostic process and to enhance classification performance by adaptively enhancing images. Despite being a shallow network, the proposed model yields competitive results with an accuracy of 87.66% and an F1-score of 0.78. The evaluation metrics indicate that class imbalance affects the performance of the proposed model despite using the weighted cross-entropy loss. The future contribution will be the inclusion of generative adversarial networks for generating synthetic images to balance the dataset. This research aims to develop a robust computer-aided diagnostic system as a second interpreter for ophthalmologists during the diagnosis and prognosis stages.
