Publication Embargo Evaluating the Success of Digital Learning in Sri Lankan Tertiary Education(IEEE, 2022-12-09) Weerapperuma, J; Nawinna, D; Gamage, NThis paper takes a social capital perspective to explain the underlying mechanisms that drive the success of digital learning in tertiary education in an emerging economy. It is crucial to explore ways in which the success of tertiary education can be maximized since these students will immediately contribute to the economy. Although digital-learning initiatives have advanced in developed countries, it is still in its early phases in many developing countries, including Sri Lanka. This study focuses on structural, relational, and cognitive dimensions of social capital and provides a new theoretical framework to examine its relationship to digital educational success. The study uses a quantitative approach where the data is collected from University students in Sri Lanka using a survey deployed online. The model is validated using the structural equation modeling technique. The findings of this study indicated that the three dimensions of social capital positively influence the success of digital education at the tertiary level. Further, this paper contributes to the existing literature on Social Capital Theory and provides valuable insights and recommendations for policymakers in the educational sector on improving digital learning achievements.Publication Embargo Solution to Measure Employee Productivity with Employee Emotion Detection(IEEE, 2022-12-09) De Silva, T.R.S.; Dayananda, K.Y.; Galagama Arachchi, R.C.; Amerasekara, M.K.S.B.; Silva, S; Gamage, NHealth and safety of workers has become a top priority in modern businesses. The reason is that it will have an impact on both individual and team output. In the last few decades, automatic facial expression analysis using machine learning has emerged as a promising and bustling field of study. In this study, the system primarily evaluates the efficiency of workers and, through the detection of their emotional states, determines their levels of motivation. The task completion rate of employees is measured by the system in the first component, and the system predicts the level of satisfaction that the employees will have. In place of linear regression, this component makes use of random forest regression, which boasts a higher degree of precision than its counterpart. The performance of workers on their tasks will be evaluated periodically, about once every fifteen minutes, and the results will be shown on a dashboard. The system will pick up on the emotions of the staff members throughout the second phase of the process. These characteristics will be used to assess the level of motivation inside the organization, with the end goal of increasing overall productivity. The accuracy of this emotion detection will also be checked periodically, namely once every fifteen minutes. The following part of the process monitors the use of the PC and calculates the level of productivity. It will be possible to get an increase in productivity if one monitors and keeps track of the application usage of each employee. The final components monitor the websites that employees visit and how they use the network. This component makes it easier to generate reports based on the utilization of the internet and the network, as well as information on performance and reports that summarize website traffic. When it is fully operational as an integrated system, most businesses will rely on this system as their primary driver of success.Publication Embargo LAWSUP - A Smart Platform to Assist Stakeholders of Business Law(IEEE, 2022-12-09) Sulakshi, U L H; Opatha, S D; De Silva, K S D; Sandeepa, M M A D N; Nawinna, D; Harasgama, H; Gamage, NCorporate law, sometimes known as business law, is the body of law that governs the rights, relationships, and behavior of persons, corporations, organizations, and businesses. Business Organizations, employees/laborers, and the public are involved in this area of the law accompanying lawyers, and legal advisors. Business organizations need legal advice. Employees face many difficulties and injustices at their workplaces. People who wish to start a new business, search for legal guidance. When one of these parties needs support, they must seek a lawyer, go to the lawyer, and get legal support. When delivering legal support to clients, lawyers are still going through a manual process. There are very few systems that have been implemented for the law domain so far, and those only search engine types of systems that are unable to support every stakeholder of this domain. There is no common platform for all these stakeholders to find solutions, connect with a good lawyer and get support. We have identified the main issues faced by business organizations, employees that need legal support, the general public, and lawyers, and developed a web solution by implementing Machine Learning, Classification Algorithms, Text mining, Natural Language Processing, and Web Crawlers.Publication Embargo A Smart Aquaponic System for Enhancing The Revenue of Farmers in Sri Lanka(IEEE, 2022-10-19) Ekanayake, D; de Alwis, P; Harshana, P; Munasinghe, D; Jayakody, A; Gamage, NSri Lanka's agricultural sector confronts serious challenges from fertilizer shortages and agriculture-related chemical scarcity. Innovations comparable to aquaponic systems may be offered to Sri Lankan farmers to overcome these difficulties using IoT and ML technology. This research scope is to implement a smart and secure aquaponic environment monitoring system to forecast plant and fish growth factors, provide Sri Lankan farmers with insights into the environment's behaviors, and take measures according to the predictions utilizing control mechanisms. In this research, more exact predictions have been generated by the Random Forest algorithm model rather than the LSTM model, and most of the investigated parameters given good accuracy according to the absolute mean error (Media TDS-1.95, Media pH-0.06, Media Temperature-0.49, Env. Temperature- 0.94, Env. Humidity-2.70) except the environment light intensity (64.11). The ML solution studied in this research paper would increase the quality of traditional agriculture in Sri Lanka for greater productivity and economic benefit.
