Publication Embargo NoFish; Total Anti-Phishing Protection System(2020 2nd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2020-12-10) Atimorathanna, D.N.; Ranaweera, T.S.; Pabasara, R.A.H.D.; Perera, J.R.; Abeywardena, K.Y.Phishing attacks have been identified by researchers as one of the major cyber-attack vectors which the general public has to face today. Although many vendors constantly launch new anti-phishing products, these products cannot prevent all the phishing attacks. The proposed solution, “NoFish” is a total anti-phishing protection system created especially for end-users as well as for organizations. This paper proposes a machine learning & computer vision-based approach for intelligent phishing detection. In this paper, a realtime anti-phishing system, which has been implemented using four main phishing detection mechanisms, is proposed. The system has the following distinguishing properties from related studies in the literature: language independence, use of a considerable amount of phishing and legitimate data, real-time execution, detection of new websites, detecting zero hour phishing attacks and use of feature-rich classifiers, visual image comparison, DNS phishing detection, email client plugin and especially the overall system is designed using a level-based security architecture to reduce the time-consumption. Users can simply download the NoFish browser extension and email plugin to protect themselves, establishing a relatively secure browsing environment. Users are more secure in cyberspace with NoFish which depicts a 97% accuracy level.Publication Embargo Vehicle Recommendation System using Hybrid Recommender Algorithm and Natural Language Processing Approach(2020 2nd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2020-12-10) Boteju, P.; Munasinghe, L.Owning a vehicle has become a mandatory requirement in the modern world. Automobile industry investing a lot on producing different car models to cater the needs of their customers with different social and economic backgrounds. Thus, Auto makers constantly produce similar car models with different features. In Sri lanka, total number of new vehicles registered at Sri Lanka Registry of Motor Vehicles(RMV) during the period of seven years (from 2008 to 2015) has been increased from 265,199 to 668,907 which is nearly 2.5 times growth. This figure shows the rapid growth of the domestic vehicle market. For a new customer, choosing the most appropriate vehicle requires an extra effort/time and has become a challenging task. For example, matching personal interests and economy with number of available options is a quite complex task. Thus, most of the customers seek support from experts who provide consultancy services. However, customers frequently making complains about the existing services which offers consultancy for new vehicle buyers. The key issues are the people involved in the consultancy are not technically sound and pay minimal attention to customer requirements. Their main focus is to sell the vehicle. Thus, the customers face numerous difficulties before and after buying their vehicle. To address this problem, this research presents a novel vehicle recommender system which guides and gives suggestions to the customers using machine learning technologies. Here, we trained a neural network model using data collected from vehicle users and vehicle sellers. Other than the neural network model, the proposed recommendation system uses natural language processing (NLP) to produce more personalized recommendations. The results shows that the recommendations made by the proposed vehicle recommendation system achieves 96% accuracy in recommending vehicles.Publication Embargo PatientCare: Patient Assistive Tool with Automatic Hand-written Prescription Reader(2020 2nd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2020-12-10) Kulathunga, D.; Muthukumarana, C.; Pasan, U.; Hemachandra, C.; Tissera, M.; De Silva, H.Most people in the world prefer to be conscious of the medications prescribed by physicians. Especially, the importance of handwritten prescriptions is prodigious in Sri Lanka because they are widely used in the healthcare sector. However, due to the illegible handwriting and the medical abbreviations of the physicians, patients are unable to find the prescribed medication information. This research is an attempt to assist the patients in identifying the prescribed medicine information and minimizes misreading errors of medical prescriptions. When a patient uploads the image of a prescription, the system converts it into unstructured text data by using OCR and segmentation, then NER is used to categorize medical information from given text. According to the other research, some solutions exist in other domains for the above mechanisms. But they gave less accuracy when tried to apply for this research due to the domain specialty. Therefore, as a solution to overcome the above discrepancy this approach allows users to scan handwritten medical prescriptions and blood reports and obtain analyzed reports in medical history. Results have shown that this approach will give 64%-70% accuracy level in doctor's handwriting recognition and 95%- 98% accuracy in medical information categorization of the prescription format.Publication Embargo EasyTalk: A Translator for Sri Lankan Sign Language using Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence(2020 2nd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2020-12-10) Kumar, D.M.; Bavanraj, K.; Thavananthan, S.; Bastiansz, G.M.A.S.; Harshanath, S.M.B.; Alosious, J.Sign language is used by the hearing-impaired and inarticulate community to communicate with each other. But not all Sri Lankans are aware of the sign language or verbal languages and a translation is required. The Sri Lankan Sign Language is tightly bound to the hearing-impaired and inarticulate. The paper presents EasyTalk, a sign language translator which can translate Sri Lankan Sign Language into text and audio formats as well as translate verbal language into Sri Lankan Sign Language which would benefit them to express their ideas. This is handled in four separate components. The first component, Hand Gesture Detector captures hand signs using pre-trained models. Image Classifier component classifies and translates the detected hand signs. The Text and Voice Generator component produces a text or an audio formatted output for identified hand signs. Finally, Text to Sign Converter works on converting an entered English text back into the sign language based animated images. By using these techniques, EasyTalk can detect, translate and produce relevant outputs with superior accuracy. This can result in effective and efficient communication between the community with differently-abled people and the community with normal people.Publication Embargo Deepfake Audio Detection: A Deep Learning Based Solution for Group Conversations(2020 2nd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2020-12-10) Wijethunga, R.L.M.A.P.C.; Matheesha, D.M.K.; Al Noman, A.; De Silva, K.H.V.T.A.; Tissera, M.; Rupasinghe, L.The recent advancements in deep learning and other related technologies have led to improvements in various areas such as computer vision, bio-informatics, and speech recognition etc. This research mainly focuses on a problem with synthetic speech and speaker diarization. The developments in audio have resulted in deep learning models capable of replicating naturalsounding voice also known as text-to-speech (TTS) systems. This technology could be manipulated for malicious purposes such as deepfakes, impersonation, or spoofing attacks. We propose a system that has the capability of distinguishing between real and synthetic speech in group conversations.We built Deep Neural Network models and integrated them into a single solution using different datasets, including but not limited to Urban- Sound8K (5.6GB), Conversational (12.2GB), AMI-Corpus (5GB), and FakeOrReal (4GB). Our proposed approach consists of four main components. The speech-denoising component cleans and preprocesses the audio using Multilayer-Perceptron and Convolutional Neural Network architectures, with 93% and 94% accuracies accordingly. The speaker diarization was implemented using two different approaches, Natural Language Processing for text conversion with 93% accuracy and Recurrent Neural Network model for speaker labeling with 80% accuracy and 0.52 Diarization-Error-Rate. The final component distinguishes between real and fake audio using a CNN architecture with 94% accuracy. With these findings, this research will contribute immensely to the domain of speech analysis.Publication Embargo Aspect Based Sentiment Analysis for Evaluating Movies and TV series Publisher: IEEE Cite This PDF(2020 2nd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2020-12-10) Cooray, T.; Perera, G.; Chandrasena, D.; Alosius, J.; Kugathasan, A.Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) is used in different fields for analyzing customer reviews to project an overall customer opinion on certain products. With the expansion of the internet, people are provided with an inexpensive and time-saving method to express their opinion to a larger audience, while various industries are handed with the opportunity to gather free information from it to obtain market value. The implementation of machine learning methods for the evaluation of aspects related to movies and television series has not been commenced, and it could be a new development for the industry. This study focuses on conducting an ABSA on a movie or a television series based on genre, story as well as cast and crew aspects. The data collected from social media through web scraping is processed to produce adequate results to get a broad understanding on how the popularity of the movie or the television series related to above mentioned aspects. Then, each aspect is further analyzed to gather precise information belonging to each aspect. The accuracy of the results of the proposed system has been achieved over 79%. The results proved that the solution is highly successful than the former works with high business value.
