    Smart Agriculture Prediction System for Vegetables Grown in Sri Lanka
    (IEEE, 2021-10-27) Gamage, R; Rajapaksa, H; Sangeeth, A; Hemachandra, G; Wijekoon, J; Nawinna, D. P
    Agriculture planning plays a dominant role in the economic growth and food security of agriculture-based countries such as Sri Lanka. Even though agriculture plays a vital role, there are still several major complications to be addressed. Some of the major complications are lack of knowledge about yield and price resulting in the farmers selecting crops based on experience. Machine learning has a great potential to solve these complications. To this end, this paper proposes a novel system comprises of a mobile application, SMS (Short Message Service), and API (Application Programming Interface) with yield prediction, price prediction, and crop optimization. Several machine learning algorithms were used for yield and price predictions while a generic algorithm was used to optimize crops. The yield was predicted considering the environmental factors while the price was predicted considering supply and demand, import and export, and seasonal effect. To select the best suitable crops to cultivate, the output of yield and price prediction have been used. Yield prediction has been implemented using elastic net, ridge, and multilinear regression. R2 of yield prediction is varied from 0.74 to 0.89 while RMSE value is between 15.69 and 35.05. Price prediction has been implemented using the algorithms of Gradient Boosting Tree, Random Forest, Facebook Prophet, and R2 is varied from 0.72 to 0.92 while RMSE value is between 26.81 and 140.72. Crop optimization has been implemented using the genetic algorithm.

    Smart Crop and Fertilizer Prediction System
    (IEEE, 2019-12-05) Wickramasinghe, C. P; Lakshitha, P. L. N; Hemapriya, H. P. H. S; Jayakody, A; Ranasinghe, P. G. N. S
    Agricultural industry plays a major role in the process of economic development as well as the Gross Domestic Product of Sri Lanka. One of the significant issues in the industry is lacking an accurate way to identify the best crop that can be grown with the available soil fertility in a particular land. Since most of the farmers have a lack of knowledge about soil nutrients, they start cultivations by believing myths in society and few of them use scientific approaches. This research mainly focuses on suggesting the best crop according to soil fertility of land and also it recommends a fertilizer plan to optimize the amount of fertilizers applied for suggested crops. The paper presents a tool with embedded sensors that measure soil fertility and developed a cross- platform mobile application to suggest the best crops according to available soil fertility. Further, a fertilizer plan will be suggested to optimize fertilizer usage in order to increase profitability and avoid soil degradation. To evaluate the final product, the same soil sample was tested in the lab and using sensors embedded tool. Results obtained by those tests proven that both generate approximately equal Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K) values.

    AI Based Cyber Threats and Vulnerability Detection, Prevention and Prediction System
    (IEEE, 2019-12-05) Amarasinghe, A. M. S. N; Wijesinghe, W. A. C. H; Nirmana, D. L. A; Jayakody, A; Priyankara, A. M. S
    Security of the computer systems is the most important factor for single users and businesses, because an attack on a system can cause data loss and considerable harm to the businesses. Due to the increment of the range of the cyber-attacks, anti-virus scanners cannot fulfil the need for protection. Hence, the increment of the skill level that required for the development of cyber threats and the availability of the attacking tools on the internet, the need for Artificial Intelligence-based systems, is a must to the users. The proposed approach is an automated system that consists of a mechanism to deploy vulnerabilities and a rich database with known vulnerabilities. The Convolutional Neural Networks detects the vulnerabilities and the artificial intelligence-based generative models do the prevention process and improves reliability. The prediction procedure implemented using the algorithm called “Time Series” and the model called “SARIMA”. These implementations give an output with considerable accuracy.
