    Recognition and translation of Ancient Brahmi Letters using deep learning and NLP
    (IEEE, 2019-12) Wijerathna, K. A. S. A. N; Sepalitha, R; Thuiyadura, I; Athauda, H; Suranjini, P. D; Silva, J. A. D. C; Jayakodi, A
    Inscriptions are major resources for studying the ancient history and culture of civilization in any country. Analyzing, recognizing and translating the ancient letters (Brahmi letters) from the inscription is a very difficult work for present generation. There is no any automatic system for translating Brahmi letters to Sinhala language. However, they are using manual method for translating inscriptions. The method that used in epigraphy is being taken a long period to decipher, analyze and translate the inscribed text in inscriptions. This research mainly focuses on recognition of ancient Brahmi characters written the time period between 3 rd B.C and 1 st A. D. First, we remove the noise, segment the letters from the inscription image and convert it into the binary image using image processing techniques. Secondly, we recognize the correct Brahmi letters, broken letters and then identify the time period of the inscriptions using Convolution Neural Networks in deep learning. Finally, the Brahmi letters are translated into modern Sinhala letters and provide the meaning of the inscription using Natural Language Processing. This proposed system builds up solution to overcome the existing problems in epigraphy.

    AI Based Depression and Suicide Prevention System
    (2019 1st International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2019-12-05) Kulasinghe, S.A.S.A.; Jayasinghe, A.; Rathnayaka, R.M.A.; Karunarathne, P.B.M.M.D.; Silva, P.D.S.; Anuradha Jayakodi, J.A.D.C.
    Suicide is a major issue in the world. The number one reason for suicide is untreated depression. That is why it was decided to focus on depression symptoms more and identify them in order to prevent suicidal attempts. To cure depression, the best way is to talk about their feelings with someone they trusted and release their pain inside of them. Because of that this system has a Chat-bot for the user to interact with. Chat-bot will gather information about the users feelings through text and voice analysis. Also by analyzing their Facebook statuses and recent web history, the application gather more information about their mental state so that the system take more accurate conclusions. After analyzing all the information from each component the back brain will decide on how the chat-bot should act on the user. At the end, the product was able to give more than 75% accurate results for each component.
