    (IEEE, 2020-12-10) Mahroof, A; Gamage, V; Rajendran, K; Rajkumar, S; Rajapaksha, S, K; Wijendra, D
    Education is one of the fast-growing fields in the global perspective. Advancement of technology can be used in this sector to provide an effective and a valuable education system. In general, the students are more attracted to displays rather than the textbooks. In Sri Lanka, there is an inadequacy of resources and teachers cannot provide one on one attention to the students. Sri Lanka is not equipped with any platform to self-learn or self-evaluate their performance using an application either. Fortunately, “Edubot” acts as a solution for the stated research gap by providing a self-learning and self-evaluating AI based chatbot platform for Ordinary Level students in Chemistry domain. The self-learning component will provide the students a classroom environment by providing interactive tutorials. Explanatory responses would be given by Edubot by capturing doubts raised by the students and the self-evaluating component will provide an exam-based environment in which the Edubot auto generates the question and answers. The research finding shows that each component has an accuracy of more than 70 percent and helps to achieve the main goal of increasing the resources available to the ordinary level students in the Chemistry domain. This would then lead to an increase in the pass rate of the chemistry subject in the G.C.E Ordinary Level exam.

    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2026-05-29) Senanayake, K; Panagoda, P; Dharmapriya, S; Chathurya, R; Wijendra, D; De Silva, H; Jayawardana, D
    The manual microscopic examination of urine is a crucial step in diagnosis of urinary tract and renal diseases. However, the process is time-consuming and operator dependent. Most of the existing automated urinalysis techniques only consider the microscopic examination of individual components or the black-box-based prediction models. There is a lack of a comprehensive framework that incorporates the microscopic examination of the microscopic components with the clinical diagnostic logic. In this regard, the present work proposes an artificial intelligence-based urinalysis system for the microscopic examination of the components in the urine sample to generate diagnostic outcomes. In the proposed system, the microscopic components like white blood cells, red blood cells, bacteria, yeast, crystals, and casts are detected and analyzed to generate the diagnostic outcomes for the diagnosis of urinary tract infection, kidney stone risk, hematuria causes, and casts-related renal diseases. In the proposed system, efficient lightweight models ensure precision and effectiveness in identifying various biological entities. White blood cells are detected with a mAP@0.5 score of 0.96, yeast with over 0.94, and crystals with more than 0.91, yielding a classification accuracy of 99.41% for crystals. The system detects microscopic elements like casts with a mAP@0.5 score of 0.80. The system also incorporates auxiliary clinical data to enhance diagnostic results for various diseases.

    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2026-05-21) Megasooriya, E; Rajapaksha, H; Rajapaksha, H; Bandara, A; Krishara, J; Wijendra, D
    Agriculture plays a vital role in food security, yet Aloe vera cultivation remains vulnerable to environmental variability, nutrient imbalance, disease occurrence, and unstable market conditions. This study presented AloeGreen, a crop-specific AI-IoT smart agriculture framework designed to support Aloe vera cultivation through integrated sensing, forecasting, and decision-support modules. The system combined real-time IoT-based field monitoring with machine learning models for yield prediction, environmental forecasting, disease detection, fertilizer recommendation, and price forecasting. A key contribution of the study was a forecast-informed yield prediction strategy in which short-term environmental forecasts were incorporated into the yield estimation pipeline to support future-aware decision-making. In addition, domain-specific agronomic features, including water stress and heat stress indices, were introduced to better represent Aloe vera growth conditions. For the yield prediction module, the cleaned hourly cultivation dataset contained 1,048,330 observations after removing missing critical fields and duplicates. Experimental results showed that XGBoost achieved the best yield prediction performance with an RMSE of $\mathbf{1 0. 0 2}$ and an $\mathbf{R}^{\mathbf{2}}$ of $\mathbf{0. 8 9 2}$, while the environmental forecasting module achieved strong performance for temperature and humidity prediction, although rainfall prediction remained comparatively weaker. The disease detection module achieved balanced classification performance of approximately 77% accuracy, and Random Forest performed best in both price forecasting and fertilizer recommendation tasks. Overall, the findings showed that integrating IoT sensing with intelligent analytics in a unified Aloe vera cultivation platform can improve decision support, reduce uncertainty, and contribute to more sustainable smart agriculture practices.

This research presents a novel multi-disease prediction system leveraging advanced deep learning techniques for early detection of DR, AMD, Glaucoma, and RVO. The study utilized publicly available datasets, including retinal fundus images from repositories such as RFMiD, IDRiD, APTOS validated by medical professionals to ensure diagnostic reliability. These images were preprocessed and augmented to train robust convolutional neural network (CNN) models tailored to each disease. The predictive models were developed and optimized using hybrid architectures, integrating attention mechanisms and feature fusion for enhanced performance. This approach achieved high accuracies 93% for DR, 92% for AMD, 94% for Glaucoma, and 94% for RVO demonstrating robustness and consistency across diverse retinal conditions. To validate real-world applicability, the models underwent further testing in clinical settings using a Sri Lankan dataset, reflecting local disease prevalence and imaging conditions. By combining validated public data with clinical testing, this scalable system supports ophthalmologists in early diagnosis, reducing diagnostic delays and improving patient outcomes. This work offers a reliable, innovative solution to mitigate the burden of blindness in Sri Lanka and beyond.

    Automated Customer Care Service System for Finance Companies
    (NCTM, 2014-12-16) Warnapura, A. K; Rajapaksha, D. S; Ranawaka, H. P; Fernando, P. S. S. J; Kasthuriarachchi, K. T. S; Wijendra, D
    In general, to obtain information about a product one should visit the company or contact the company via a phone call or some sort of a communication type, for example E-mail. Even so under normal circumstances the customer will receive the necessary information sent by a human being. There can be many disadvantages in this method. At the onset if a particular customer gives a phone call to the company the customer will have to wait for a considerable time. This is obvious because due to lack of human resources and phone lines there may be a question of customers waiting to get connected to the company line. On the other hand if a customer sends an email, the reply for the email will take time because the particular email should be perused by another human being at company in order to reply. These are few disadvantages apart from human errors that can happen. Ultimately as a result of above detrimental facts a faithful customer could get unsatisfied and lose confidence on a particular company. However, in the system that we are going to introduce, a particular customer can get any type of information in real time by the Aid of the Artificial Intelligence in the form of text/voice or E-mails. The advantages over the other method are that the customers will not have to wait for a reply, there are no space for human error and more importantly the company can use their human resources in other activities while the system takes care of the Customer care unit at least partially. Further, this system will be help to people who needs the immediate customer care assistance and will be able to get help by their own without involved human agent in another party for their assistance

    (IEEE, 2022-12-26) Senarathne, K.H.I.R.; Nirash, J.M.I.; Herath, H.M.C.P.; Bandara, V.D.; Wijendra, D; Krishara, J
    Voice assistants are programs on digital devices that listen and respond to verbal commands. In this dynamic world, users can use these voice assistants to manage daily tasks, plan their day, get answers to problems, and for entertainment purpose. Most of existing voice assistant applications functioned using the English language. Since Sinhala is the native language in Sri Lanka, it is not recognized internationally as well as within Sri Lanka for technical applications. As Sri Lankans are more inclined to use the Sinhala language, it is expected to develop this for the benefit of all the Sri Lankans despite their age and to use their native language through a technical application. Furthermore, the lack of English knowledge will lead to the decline of Information technology literacy. This project expects to take the Sinhala language forward to a standard where it is recognized locally and internationally. Thus, building a mobile application that supports Sinhala voice commands will solve the above-mentioned issues. It will facilitate the individuals to do daily activities efficiently and effortlessly within a less time. Machine Learning and Natural Language Processing are the man technologies used in this project. A computer vision-based algorithm from face detection technology is trained. This application is capable of answering questions and following the instructions for daily tasks and also can be used for entertainment. Apart from the mentioned specialty, it also supports and responds to the Sinhala language that will be shown off on a display.

    Cinnamon is one of the most economically significant export crops in Sri Lanka. However, its cultivation is challenged by plant diseases, nutrient deficiencies, and inefficient harvesting practices, which reduce yield quality and productivity. Traditional methods for identifying plant health issues are time-consuming and require expert evaluation, often inaccessible to rural farmers. To address these limitations, this study introduces an AI-driven intelligent monitoring system for sustainable cinnamon cultivation, a mobile-based solution specifically designed to enhance cinnamon farming practices. The system leverages Artificial Intelligence (AI), Deep Learning (DL), and Image Processing techniques to support real-time plant health diagnostics. It integrates multiple AI-powered components for early detection of bark diseases such as Rough Bark Disease (RBD) and Canker Disease (CD) using a contrastive learning-based model, severity prediction of leaf diseases, including Leaf Gall and Leaf Blight, using the YOLO model, identification of nutrient deficiencies, particularly Magnesium and Potassium, through transfer learning and prediction of cinnamon bark maturity and quality grades utilizing spatial attention mechanisms based on diameter and color. Each model is optimized for mobile deployment to provide real-time feedback and enable efficient decision-making. This AI-driven approach enhances disease management and improves yield quality while promoting sustainable, data-driven cinnamon cultivation in Sri Lanka.

    Enhancing Conversational AI Model Performance and Explainability for Sinhala-English Bilingual Speakers
    (IEEE, 2022-12-09) Dissanayake, I; Hameed, S; Sakalasooriya, A; Jayasinghe, D; Abeywardhana, L; Wijendra, D
    Natural language processing has become essential to modern conversational tools and dialogue engines, including Chatbots. However, applying natural language processing to low-resource languages is challenging due to their lack of digital presence. Sinhala is the native language of approximately nineteen million people in Sri Lanka and is one of many low-resource languages. Moreover, the increase in using code-switching: alternating two or more languages within the same conversation, and code-mixing: the practice of representing words of a language using characters of another language, has become another major issue when processing natural languages. Apart from natural language processing, the explainability of opaque machine learning models utilized in chatbots has become another prominent concern. None of the existing modern chatbot development platforms supports explainability and relies on a performance score such as accuracy or f1-score. This paper proposes a no-code chatbot development platform with a series of built-in novel natural language processing, model evaluation, and explainability tools to tackle the problems of processing Sinhala-English code-switching and code-mixing natural language data and model evaluation in modern chatbot development platforms.

    In our country, skin diseases are more common than other diseases because of the climate. Skin diseases are occurring almost on all groups of ages among people. It is one of the most common types of diseases where some can be painful, and some can cause fatal to human life. The delay of the disease detection, difficulties of identify the infected area, Ignorance of the spread of the disease and treatments may threat to the patient’s life. Most of the time this process is performed manually which can lead to human errors and takes days for providing the results. This paper reports a smart solution that assists the patients by detecting the disease, identify the current infected area of the disease, recommend best doctors, provide community-based prevention guidelines, and predict the future risk. Also due to this economic crisis, we suggest that it’s much easier if the patient can do these skin check-ups systematically to continuously monitor and detect skin disease to get proper medical attention. As treatment procedures can be different from each doctor and impact will be different, we are working on community-based platform where we can get patients’ reviews about doctors and preventive guidelines. Depending on the performance evaluations, the results obtained from the proposed method for disease identifications are in the range of 90% - 95% of accuracy.

    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025-07-03) Sellapperuma M.S; Wasana, K.H. I; Dhananjana, B.K. T; Anuruddhika, D. L. N; Krishara, J; Wijendra, D
    This research presents a hybrid deep-learning system to enhance kinesthetic math education for Grade 4 and 5 students in low-resource Sri Lankan classrooms, addressing addition, subtraction, and time-telling skills in Sinhala. Integrating fine-tuned You Only Look Once version 11 (YOLOv11) for real-time abacus recognition and pre-trained Spatial Transformer Network (STN) with Residual Network 50 (ResNet50) for analog clock analysis, the system bridges physical manipulatives with digital feedback. Optimized for low-cost hardware via post-training quantization, it reduces model sizes by up to 56.6% and inference times by 45.9%, enabling deployment on standard PCs. The methodology employs YOLOv11 to detect abacus beads (mean Average Precision, mAP50-95: 0.898) and STN + ResNet50 to correct clock perspectives (95.2% accuracy on SynClock), delivering immediate Sinhala feedback through a culturally adapted interface. The system was evaluated on an Intel Core i5 PC with 8GB RAM and achieved sub-second inference (YOLOv11: 170.1 ms, STN + ResNet50: 32 ms post-quantization) while retaining accuracy. A pilot study with 20 students showed a 25% improvement in arithmetic scores and 30% in time-telling accuracy, with 85% reporting higher engagement. These findings demonstrate the system's efficacy in boosting numeracy and interaction in resource-scarce settings, aligning with the Visual, Aural, Read/Write, Kinesthetic (VARK) framework. Despite challenges like hardware constraints and real-world variability, this scalable, offline-capable solution offers a novel approach to educational technology, with potential for broader deployment in Sri Lanka and similar contexts, addressing gaps in artificial intelligence-driven kinesthetic learning tools. ©

    A Mobile Based Garbage Collection System
    (IEEE, 2022-12-29) Wijendra, D; De Silva, D. I.; Gunawardhena, N. M.; Wijayarathna, S. M.; Aluthwaththage, J. H.
    Garbage disposal and collection is an ongoing global crisis amplified by the increasing world population, lack of funds and public awareness, and recently because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Information Technology can be utilized as a solution for the existing garbage collection methods that are old-fashioned, time-consuming, and energy-consuming due to the lack of a unified and consistent system that incorporates all the parties involved in garbage production and collection. A mobile-based garbage collection system is proposed to overcome the issues aforementioned through route and schedule optimization, AI chatbot, and optimized GPS tracking. The route and schedule optimization is achieved through vehicle routing problem with time windows(VRPTW) with synchronization and precedence that was optimized using LNS; the total travel cost went from 172 minutes to 144 minutes. The AI chatbot feature facilitates reporting garbage collection issues and complaints and enquiring about waste management tips (reduce, recycle, and reuse tips) to be used at home. The most prominent role of developing this AI chatbot is replacing the manual process of reporting garbage collection issues in Sri Lanka with an efficient and interactive way. The chatbot has waste management tips Q and A. In Optimized GPS Tracking, the user can use the map to find the nearest garbage disposal place based on the type of rubbish they generate. The truck driver can find the optimal path to the closest current garbage disposal centres and public trash bins and view the location of Homeowners on the map. The optimized path between two points is displayed based on distance, time, and fuel consumption. The main goal of the component is to show the location of garbage disposal bins and the optimal paths for truck drivers using Linear regression and the Node2vec algorithm.

    Software Complexity Reduction through the Process Automation in Software Development Life Cycle
    (IEEE, 2021-11-29) Wijendra, D; Hewagamage, K. P
    Numerous software complexity metrics have been introduced to quantify the software complexity in terms of different attributes considered in its written source code. Although the complexity determination is bounded with its source code, it should be expressed beyond its code base level, since the software is implemented as a combination of different phrases inside the Software Developments Life Cycle. The automation of the processes involved in software implementation procedure will mitigate the human effort taken during the phrases, resulting that the overall complexity of the software will also be reduced. The proposed system has the capability to demonstrate the requirement analysis, design, defects tracking, quality analysis and the complexity computation with respective to the different complexity metrics without restraining the software complexity evaluation into several quality attributes within the source code.

    System to Improve the Quality of Water Resources in Sri Lanka Using Machine Learning and Image Processing
    (IEEE, 2022-12-09) Liyanage, M. H. S; Gajanayake, G.M.B. S; Wijewickrama, O; Fernando A, S.D.S. A; Wijendra, D; Gamage, A. I
    Water covers approximately 71% of the earth’s surface, but only 1.2% of it can be used for drinking. However, due to the amount of waste water released into water resources, the presence of harmful microorganisms, and natural occurrences such as eutrophication, even that water cannot be used directly for drinking purposes without purification. One method of purifying water is chlorination. However, if the chlorine level exceeds the standard, it can cause both long-term and short-term illnesses. As a result, a system is imposed to solve four problems: predicting the pH value of chlorinated drinking water, determining the quantification value of active sludge in a wastewater plant, detecting microorganisms in drinking water, and predicting the percentage of eutrophication in a water resource.
