    Non-Verbal Bio-Markers for Automatic Depression Analysis
    (IEEE, 2021-12-02) Yashodhika, G. B. O; De Silva, L. S. R.; Chathuranaga, W. W. P K; Yasasmi, D. L. R; Samarasinghe, P; Pandithakoralage, S; Piyawardana, V
    Detection of early depression risk is essential to help the affected individual to get timely medical treatment. However, automatic Depression Risk Analysis has not received significant focus in prior studies. This paper aims to propose an Automatic Depression Risk Analyzer based on non-verbal biomarkers; facial and emotional features, head posture, linguistic, mobile utilization, and biometrics. The analysis has shown that facial and emotional features can learn to identify depression risk better when compared with the head pose and emotional features. Moreover, the study shows that Depression Risk Analysis based on linguistic performed well with 95% accuracy for Sinhala content and 96% accuracy for contextual in English. Identifying the depression risk based on the biometrics, the sleep pattern analysis obtained 95% accuracy with the K Nearest Neighbour (KNN). Further, the mobile utilization analysis with the KNN model achieved 81% accuracy towards the Depression Risk Analysis. The accuracy of Depression Risk Analysis can be improved by extending analytic models to work as a single model. Furthermore, The models have been integrated with a mobile application that allows users to get a comprehensive Depression Risk Analysis based on each biomarker. These additional methods will function together to provide a more accurate on assessing depression risk.

    Skeleton Based Periodicity Analysis of Repetitive Actions
    (IEEE, 2022-04-07) Wedasingha, N; Samarasinghe, P; Seneviratne, L; Puiatti, A; Papandrea, M; Dhanayaka, D
    This paper investigates the problem of detecting and recognizing repetitive actions performed by a human. Repetitive action analysis play a major role in detecting many behavioral disorders. In this work, we present a robust framework for detecting and recognizing repetitive actions performed by a human subject based on periodic and aperiodic action analysis. Our framework uses focal joints in the human skeleton for the analysis of repetitive actions which are substantiated by the principles of human anatomy and physiology. Using Non-deterministic Finite Automata (NFA) techniques, in this paper, we introduce a novel model to transform repetitive action count to differentiate the periodicity in human action. Experimental results on a dataset consisting of 371 video clips show that our algorithm outperforms the state-of-art (RepNet) [1] in simultaneous multiple repetitive action counts. Further, while the proposed model and RepNet give comparable results in counting periodic repetitive actions, our model performance surpass RepNet significantly on analysing non-periodic repetitive behavior.

    Analysis on the Risk and the Categorization on Test Automation in Sri Lankan Software Industry
    (IEEE, 2021-12-09) Sundaralingam, S; Rajapaksha, S. K
    Delivering quality software to customer is the key objective of software industry. One of the essential fragment of life cycle of software is software testing. In software testing test automation is playing a major role. If test automation cannot be practiced in proper way the delivery of the software quality would impact directly and leads to loss of customer, which is a failure of business. Test automation has several problems which needs to address in each stage. Test automation cause several issues when execute test automation in a company. All these issues need to be handled by different people, therefore initially issues need to be identified and classified and then solve properly. This research is to identify the improvements to categorize the problems automatically and find the solution for the problem in test automation process and hence to practice the test automation in healthier way in order to achieve better software quality. Test automation issue are analyzed and the solutions are proposed. On which stage, the test automation is causing problems and how to solve them are recommend in this research, Test automation issues are categorized and under relevant category therefore issues can be solved speedily. The issues are passed as sentence and they are categorized under the relevant category to fix them quickly. The sentences are preprocessed and conducted feature selection using filter methods and predict under appropriate category. The issue has been cleaned in preprocess stage. Implemented LSTM base algorithm using filter method to categorize the issues. In this research an implementation to categorize test automation problems are formed. Recommendation and solutions are proposed on test automation which would aid to practice test automation in better way and that would leads to better software quality delivery.

    Analysis and performance of CMA blind deconvolution for image restoration
    (Wiley Online Library, 2015-09) Samarasinghe, P; Kennedy, R. A
    In this paper we study the applicability of classical blind deconvolution methods such as constant modulus algorithm (CMA) for blind adaptive image restoration. The requirements such as the source to be white, uniformly distributed and zero mean, which yield satisfactory convergence in the data communication application context, are revisited in the image restoration context, where a linear deblur kernel needs to be blindly adapted to compensate for an unknown image blur kernel with the objective to recover a source ground truth image. Through analysis and performance studies, we show that the performance of CMA is adversely affected by the intrinsic spatial correlation of natural images and by any deviation of their distribution from being platykurtic. We also show that decorrelation techniques designed to overcome spatial correlation cannot be effectively applied to rectify CMA performance for blind adaptive image restoration
