    Ayurvedic Knowledge Sharing Platform with Sinhala Virtual Assistant
    (2019 1st International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2019-12-05) Jayalath, A.D.A.D.S.; Nadeeshan, P.V.D.; Amarawansh, T.G.A.G.D.; Jayasuriya, H.P.; Nawinna, D. P.
    Apart from western medicine methods Ayurveda medicinal system is a very huge and better resulting medicinal technique. In these Ayurveda methods identification of indigenous plants to predict the medicines is very important and must do very carefully. Generally main components that we use to identify a plant are leaf, flower, trunk and root etc. Among these features, we use images of leaves and flowers. To do this we are using deep learning based CNN approaches and machine learning and technologies. Those are OpenCV, and Tensorflow classification algorithm. According to the evidences that we gathered from surveys and interviews that we conducted with the responsible parties we could find out that lots of people don’t have much knowledge about indigenous medicinal plants and their Ayurveda treatment methods. To overcome this problem we implemented Ayurveda information centralized chatbot which is able to answer user’s questions relevant to the Ayurveda and indigenous medicinal plants. Chatbot will analyze the question that user asks and will provide answers according to that. Another useful feature of this system is it provides relevant information of Ayurveda doctors. So users can find doctors according to their needs and they are able to rate and give recommendations for the doctors. That will be help others to find doctors more easily and efficiently without any doubt.

    Comparative analysis of the application of Deep Learning techniques for Forex Rate prediction

    Forecasting 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.
