Publication Embargo Ayurvedic Knowledge Sharing Platform with Sinhala Virtual Assistant(IEEE, 2019-12-05) Jayalath, A. D. A. D. S; Nadeeshan, P. V. D; Amarawansh, T. G. A. G. D; Jayasuriya, H. P; Nawinna, D. PApart 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.Publication Embargo Predictive Analytics Platform for Organic Cultivation Management(IEEE, 2019-12-05) Rathnayake, R. M. S. M; Ekanayake, E. W. L. M. B; Kahandawala, K. A. I. P; de Silva, W. G. S. C; Nawinna, D. P; Kasthurirathna, DThere is an increasing demand for organic farming as an environmentally friendly alternative to industrial agricultural system. It is a method of farming that does not involve pesticides, fertilizers, genetically modified organisms, and growth hormones. Organic farming yields vital benefits such as preservation of soil's organic composition, fertility, structure and biodiversity, reduce erosion and reduce the risks of human, animal, and environmental exposure to toxic materials. This paper presents design and development of a software platform for supporting sustainability of organic agriculture system, which has been implemented as a proof of concept in Sri Lanka. The predictive analytics based service platform that not only supports farming decisions of organic farmers but also offers an electronic market place for organic foods. The proposed system is capable of predicting organic harvests, prices and provide decision support on crop selection for upcoming cultivations. To implement this system, machine learning and optimization techniques have been used. In addition, it uses block chain technology to maintain authentication and identity management of organic farmers so that the consumers can trust they get genuine organic food.
