Publication Embargo Revolutionalize Your Learning Experience with EQU ACCESS(IEEE, 2024-07-25) Raveenthiran, G; Sivarajah, K; Kugathasan, V; Chandrasiri, S; Mohamed Riyal, A. A; Rajendran, KThis paper introduces a novel approach aimed at enhancing online education by placing a central focus on students' emotional well-being and improving their learning experiences. The approach integrates four key machine learning technologies: behavioral expression analysis, a personalized chatbot for emotional support, voice stress detection, and visual content description. Through empirical findings, the study illustrates the effectiveness of these methods in bolstering students' emotional well-being and academic performance. By providing a roadmap for the advancement of online education and emotional support, this research holds promise for delivering substantial benefits to learners worldwide. The study showcases notable advancements in online education, reporting a 30% rise in perceived emotional support and a 25% increase in overall satisfaction. The personalized emotional support chatbot achieved an 85% accuracy in addressing students' emotional needs, while voice stress detection boasted a 90% accuracy in identifying anxiety. Additionally, visual content description led to a 20% improvement in comprehension. These findings highlight the approach's potential to elevate both emotional well-being and academic performance in online learners.Publication Embargo AI Solution to Assist Online Education Productivity via Personalizing Learning Strategies and Analyzing the Student Performance(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2022-10-29) Liyanage, M.L.A.P.; Hirimuthugoda, U.J; Liyanage, N.L.T.N.; Thammita, D.H.M.M.P; Koliya Harshanath Webadu Wedanage, D; Kugathasan, A; Thelijjagoda, SHigher productivity in online education can be attained by consistent student engagement and appropriate use of learning resources and methodologies in the form of audio, video, and text. Lower literacy rates, decreased popularity, and unsatisfactory end-user goals can result from unbalanced or inappropriate use of the aforementioned. Prior studies mainly focused on identifying and separating the elements affecting the quality of online education and pinpointing the students' preferred learning styles outside of in-person and online instruction. This has not been able to clearly show how to enhance and customize the online learning environment in order to benefit the aforementioned criteria. This case study will primarily concentrate on elements that can be personalized and optimized to improve the quality of online education. With the aid of various algorithms like logistic regression,Support Vector Machines (SVM), time series forecasting (ARIMA), deep neural networks, and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), which make use of machine learning and deep learning techniques, the ultimate result has been attained. To increase application and accuracy, the newly presented technique will then be presented as a web-based software application. Contrary to what is commonly believed, this applied research proposes a new all-in-one Learning Management System (LMS) for students and tutors that acts as a central hub of all the learning resources.Publication Embargo Sales Optimization Solution for Fashion Retail(2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Ganhewa, N.B.; Abeyratne, S.M.L.B.; Chathurika, G.D.S.; Lunugalage, D.; De Silva, D.The Fashion industry is one of the extensive, changeable, and growing businesses to exist. It encompasses fashion retailing which functions as a mediator between the manufacturers and clients. On account of the inconsistency of this industry, maximizing sales has been a crucial task. The objective of this research study is to analyze and explore product and consumer behavior and thereby maximize sales in the fashion retail industry for women’s clothing to overcome the struggles regarding gaining sales confronted by the industry. The emergence of big data and machine learning has a positive influence on fashion retailing. ML has been utilized in this research to implement a web application that aids in optimizing sales. It comprehends sales forecasting, customer segmentation, and customer demand analytics. Each research component obtains diverse inputs to initialize the prediction and visualization procedure. The models are built employing the Extra Trees Regressor algorithm, K-means algorithm, and Naïve Bayes algorithm. Finally, for specified inputs, results will be predicted that comprise sales forecasts for products, segmentation of consumers, and forecasts about most demanded fashion item’s characteristics. This paper portrays the proceedings of data preparation, model development, and results of each research component.Publication Embargo Computer-Vision Enabled Waste Management System for Green Environment(2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Hewagamage, P.; Mihiranga, A.; Perera, D.; Fernando, R.; Thilakarathna, T.; Kasthurirathna, D.Waste management has become a critical requirement to maintain a green environment in Sri Lanka as well as other countries. Town councils have to regularly collect different types of wastes to clean cities/towns. Hence managing the waste of the cities is a challenging task. However, most of the urban councils currently use a manual approach to managing waste. However, it results in many difficulties for the people and cleaning staff who involve in the process by following strict guidelines. Issues due to waste contamination, no proper information management of waste collection, and no punctuality in removing waste from the garbage bins are some of the significant issues arising from the manual process. Due to the drawbacks of the manual approach, social issues, environmental issues, health issues can occur easily. This paper proposes a better solution to replace this manual system with an automated system to overcome these issues. Hence, the main objective of this research is to introduce an ICT-based innovative design that can be used to develop an effective waste management system in town councils. In the proposed model, we will introduce a Computer Vision-based smart waste bin system with real-time monitoring that incorporates various technologies such as computer vision, sensor-based IoT devices, and geographical information system (GIS) related technologies. Our proposed solution consists of a waste bin system, which is capable of automated waste segregation. Our design facilitates the admin users to expand the waste bin kit by adding more waste categories in a user-friendly manner, making our product adaptive in any environment. At the same time, waste bins can notify the real-time waste status. Our system generates the optimum collection routing path and displays it in a mobile app using those real-time status details. We also demonstrate a lowcost prototype.Publication Embargo Comparative analysis of the application of Deep Learning techniques for Forex Rate prediction(IEEE, 2019-12-05) Aryal, S; Nadarajah, D; Kasthurirathna, D; Rupasinghe, L; Jayawardena, CForecasting the financial time series is an extensive field of study. Even though the econometric models, traditional machine learning models, artificial neural networks and deep learning models have been used to predict the financial time series, deep learning models have been recently employed to do predictions of financial time series. In this paper, three different deep learning models called Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Temporal Convolution Network (TCN) have been used to predict the United States Dollar (USD) to Sri Lankan Rupees (LKR) exchange rate and compared the accuracy of the models. The results indicate the superiority of CNN model over other models. We conclude that CNN based models perform best in financial time series prediction.
