Publication Embargo ALEXZA: A mobile application for dyslexics utilizing artificial intelligence and machine learning concepts(IEEE, 2018-12-05) Rajapakse, S; Polwattage, D; Guruge, U; Jayathilaka, I; Edirisinghe, T; Thelijjagoda, SDyslexia can be explained as a neurological learning disability which causes difficulties in reading, word decoding, comprehension, short-term memory, writing, spelling, and speaking. People who are diagnosed with dyslexia tend to show signs of low self-esteem and anxiety since they can't interact with the society in a way that their peers do. Many applications available in this domain help them by correcting their issues by playing games and reading some hard-coded texts or pdf books. This correcting process takes time and dyslexics become helpless when coping with their day-to-day activities. This paper describes results of an evaluation of a prototype mobile application which helps the dyslexic users to deal with their reading difficulties in real life successfully, while they are receiving proper treatments. This prototype can identify the texts around them and read it loudly so that user can understand and will be allowed to customize the chunking, scrolling and highlighting of words according to their disability levels. By integrating dictionary support with the phonic and morphological structure of the word, the user will be able to comprehend difficult and complex words easily. In addition, the study also explores the use of a machine learning approach to improve the effectiveness of the learning dyslexic complex words.Publication Embargo JESSY: An Intelligence Travel Assistant(2021 3rd International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC), SLIIT, 2021-12-09) Dilshan, K.K.D.N.; Parussella, U.M.D.M.; Herath, H.M.C.J.; Chandranath, C.A.J.P.; Thelijjagoda, S.; Jayalath, T.Sri Lanka has a lengthy history as a tourist destination, but due to political and social forces, there have been numerous ups and downs.

When tourists visit Sri Lanka, some of them utilize package-based services provided by travel companies, whereas backpackers are independent budget travelers who book hotels, modes of transportation, meal plans, and destinations independently. Thus, ‘JESSY’, the intelligent travel assistant has been proposed with the intension to help independent travelers to travel around the country safely. Accordingly, the ‘JESSY’ is a collection of all the items that a traveler should carry with them every times. The main objective of the research team was to develop a mobile application which includes a leisure time planner, a trustworthy travel guide recommendation for booking, a virtual guide experience for travelers, a chatbot that offers automatic replies by analyzing and assessing data and information, utilities, resources, and safety. 'JESSY' is available for both Android and IOS operating systems.
