    Comparative analysis of the application of Deep Learning techniques for Forex Rate prediction
    (2019 1st International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2019-12-05) Aryal, S.; Nadarajah, D.; Kasthurirathna, D.; Rupasinghe, L.; Jayawardena, C.
    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.

    DenGue CarB: Mosquito Identification and Classification using Machine Learning
    (2020 2nd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2020-12-10) Mohommed, M.; Rajakaruna, P.; Kehelpannala, N.; Perera, A.; Abeysiri, L.
    This research paper discusses a web-based application that assists Public Health Officers in the dengue identification process. The mosquito classification is done using image processing and machine learning techniques. The training models are developed using Convolutional Neural Networks Algorithm, Support Vector Machine Algorithm, and K-Nearest Neighbors Algorithm to validate the results to determine the most accurate and suitable algorithm. this paper discusses the previous related research work on its significance and drawbacks while highlighting design, methods, and implementation in the solution. We conclude that the CNN algorithm provides the highest accuracy among the machine learning techniques used.

    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. Online workers/students have been affecting by the crisis according to new researches. Natural response of body, to external and internal stimuli is stress. Even though stress is a natural occurrence, prolonged exposure while working Online to stressors can lead to serious health problems if any action will not be applied to control it. Our research has been conducted deeply to identify the best parameters, which have connection with stress level of online workers. As a result of our research, a desktop application has been created to identify the users stress level in real time. According to the results, our overall system was able to provide outputs with more than 70% accuracy. It will give best predictions to avoid the health problems. Our main goal is to provide best solution for the online workers to have healthy lifestyles. Updates for the users will be provided according to the feedback we will have in the future from the users. Our System will be a most valuable application in the future among online workers.
