Also, it is one of the best income sources in Sri Lanka. It makes a considerable amount of money directly and indirectly through contributing to the government budget, job market and foreign exchange earnings. Same as foreign visitors, a significant amount of domestic travelers contributes to the economy in Sri Lanka. Hence, the tourism industry is popular in Sri Lanka; this research aims to enhance travelers’ travelling experience. When considering today’s travel communities, there are a set of unanswered questions that travelers tend to find answers manually from forums and social media because of the lack of features in the current apps. This paper discusses the development of the “Voyager – Smart travel guidance mobile application” to fulfil the gap between current apps and user requirements. The mobile application mainly focuses on the following features; smart travel plan within the desired travel period, shortest and scenic path options, automatic review categorizing and rating system, place tagging and place feature extracting system, fuel data analyzer, and one-tap emergency guidance feature. Despite the previous mentioned features, the final mobile application includes a friends system between app users, group travel planning, and an in-app chat system. As a result of the research project, this user-friendly mobile application will provide a better user experience when travelling, and it will help to develop the tourism culture in Sri Lanka.Publication Embargo Use of Natural Language Processing and Deep Learning towards Guiding Healthy Cholesterol Free Life(2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Sasanka, D.; Malshani, H.

Elderly kidney patients, kidney transplant patients who passed the risk level after the surgery are not treated in the emergency clinic. These patients are handed over to their families to take care of them. In any case, it is impossible to tackle a portion of the issues that emerge regarding the patient at home. It is hoped to enter patient’s data from home every day and to develop a system that can use that entered data to predict whether a patient is in an essential circumstance or not. Additionally, individuals in high-hazard regions cannot know whether they are in danger of creating kidney disappointments or not and individuals in danger of creating kidney sickness because of Diabetes Mellitus. Thus, we desire to emphasize the framework to improve answers for this issue. The research focuses on developing a system that includes early kidney disease prediction models involving machine learning classification algorithms by considering the relevant variables. In predictive analysis, six machine learning methods are used: Support Vector Machine (SVM with kernels), Random Forest (RF), Decision Tree, Logistic Regression, and Multilayer Perceptron. These classification algorithms' performance is evaluated using statistical measures such as sensitivity (recall), precision, accuracy, and F-score. In categorizing, accuracy determines which examples are accurate. The experimental results reveal that Support Vector Machine outperforms other classification algorithms in terms of accuracy.Publication Embargo Stress Analysis and Care Prediction System for Online Workers(2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Amarasinghe, A.A.S.M.; Malassri, I.M.S.; Weerasinghe, K.C.N.; Jayasingha, I.B.; Abeygunawardhana, P.K.W.; Silva, S.Working from home (WFH) online during the covid-19 pandemic has caused increased stress level.

The incapacity to evaluate the knowledge acquired is a flaw in education. Due to the current situation, traditional evaluation and examinations are not possible. In a developing country like Sri Lanka, the conduct of online examinations has not been efficient, resulting in cheating at examinations due to vulnerabilities resulting from organizational policies and the difficulty to track down candidates who are prone to cheating, therefore use of facial features for candidate verification and to monitor the background interactions the use of audio and video is taken into consideration with the aid of two cameras; the system mounted camera and a wearable camera containing a microphone allowing audio detection. In this research, we suggest using the training data set generated from individuals to undertake a training approach to improve the robustness for background interactions through audio and video to detect the level of cheating of candidates.Publication Embargo Smart Monitoring and Disease Detection for Robotic Harvesting of Tomatoes(2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Pasindu, I.; Viraj, S.; Dilshan, R.; Kalhara, A.; Senaweera, O.; de Silva, R.; Jayawardena, C.Tomato is a one of the most popular produced and extensively consumed vegetables in the world. Typical agricultural systems make extensive use of human labor which is more costly and less effective. This research explores the minimization of human labor through automation. The diseases infected by tomato plants are hard to detect. Identifying these diseases in advance would save the cultivation of the disease from spreading, thereby saving the crop.It is also a difficult task to recognize the ripe harvest and experienced labor is required. The efficiency of the harvesting method will be increased by automating the identification process of ripened fruits. Manually picking tomatoes can cause some harm to the fruits during plucking due to inconsistencies in human labor. Such damage will be reduced through a better implemented robotic scheme. This paper presents the development of autonomous system for tomato harvesting and disease detection.Publication Embargo Smart Intelligent Floriculture Assistant Agent (SIFAA)(2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Samaratunge, U.S.S.; Amarasinghe, D.H.L.; Kirindegamaarachchi, M.C.; Asanka, B.L.Technology has become a vital aspect for various functional purposes throughout the world and some industries like floriculture have not adapted technology to solve and facilitate currently facing problems and provide the supply to the demand.

These highly sensitive data has become an easy target for cyber attackers due to the poor cyber resiliency strategies exercised by Healthcare Organizations. The reasoning behind the poor cyber security management in the healthcare sector sums to the collective impact of budgetary restriction, lack of cyber security competency and talent in the domain, prioritizing convenience over security, and various work culture malpractices. Further-more, a substantial number of data breaches in the healthcare sector are known to be caused by human errors, security misconfigurations, and information mismanagement. Secondly, the increasing prevalence of ransomware and botnet attacks has hampered the efficiency and availability of healthcare services. As a result, in order to provide a holistic security mechanism, this paper presents "SentinelPlus," a machine learning-based security management suite.
