What is the uniqueness of this paper compared to previous papers?) as the basis of the new research question, statements of the new scientific article, and main research problems (novelty).

Example of novelty statement or the gap analysis statement at the end of Introduction section (after the state of the art of previous research survey): '........ (short summary of background)....... A few researchers focused on ....... There have been limited studies concerned on ........ Therefore, this research intends to ................. The objectives of this research are .........'.

5. Methods

Or are there any differences?
