Real-Time Tracking System of Public Vehicles Using Global Positioning System (University of Ilorin Case Study). [PDF] Ayobami P Olatunji—The tracking system of vehicles is an electronic
system that enables vehicle owners or third-party users to locate
the position of vehicles. The paper proposed a real-time vehicle
tracking system that uses a global positioning system (GPS) with
a global system mobile (GSM) module embedded in it to solve
problems such as time-wasting, vehicle theft, and road
accidents. The selection of GPS was based on its global, ever-
growing acceptability and crashing cost of the technology and
implementation. The GPS module tracks the vehicle's location
and transmits coordinated information to a server via SMS
using an embedded SIM card. This data is then processed and
displayed on a web interface. The results demonstrate that GPS,
compared to other technologies, offers a highly effective solution
for enhancing time management and productivity in
transportation.
Transliterating Urdu to Roman Urdu using neural network [PDF] Wajahatullah KhanTransliteration is a process of converting a word from the alphabet of one lan-guage to another language. Previously used techniques are related to statistical, phrase level and rule-based approaches but Neural Machine Translation (NMT) has replaced it because of its heterogeneous, scalable and dynamic structure. NMT is used for rich resource languages e.g. German, Vietnam, Chinese and also performing well for poor resource languages like Myanmar, Hindi, and Roman-Urdu. Urdu is a low resource language and there is no sig-nificant work done to transliterate using NMT models. In this paper, we are working on Urdu to Roman-Urdu transliteration using sequence-to-sequence and attention-based models. This model uses the Encoder-Decoder architecture that takes one language as input (source) and decoder transforms it to desire output (target). Its results are phenomenal for rich resource languages, provid-ing context aware and scalable solutions. In the field of language translitera-tion, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Bi-directional models are com-monly employed to effectively deal with long-term dependencies. To handle unseen data, a combination of Byte Pair Encoding (BPE) and subword tech-niques is utilized, employing a hybrid approach that incorporates both word and character level embeddings. In order to evaluate the performance of the transliteration system, experiments are conducted on a parallel corpus consist-ing of 60k samples, which were generated from scratch. The system undergoes extensive testing to fine-tune the hyperparameters, ultimately achieving state-of-the-art results measured by the BLEU score on both the training and testing datasets. Additionally, the NMT model provides scalable, robust, context aware structure and can handle out-of-vocabulary (OOV) words.

3D PRINTED STANDARDIZED GROSS ANATOMICAL MODEL OF THE THORAX OF SOUTHERN NIGERIAN MALE [PDF] Ebieto, C. E., Fawehinmi, H. B., Okoh, P. D., Oghenemavwe, L. E., Oparaocha, C. A., David, L. K., Amadi, M. A., and Asiwe, N.The study aims to print a standardized 3D gross anatomical model of the thorax of a southern Nigeria male. The study adopted a cross-sectional study design to collect anthropometric data for the design of 3D printed gross anatomical model. The anthropometric data were obtained via direct measurements and data was analyzed using IBM SPSS version 25. Using polylactic acid filament, CAD software, and a 3D printer, the study followed a three-step process: modeling the thorax digitally, slicing the model into printable instructions, and finally printing the model. The study focused on 3D printing a 20% scaled-down model of the human thorax, including the vertebral column. Challenges with accuracy and stability arose due to the model's irregular surfaces, requiring support-based printing. To address these issues, the thorax was divided into smaller segments for printing, then assembled with hot adhesives. The completed model, showcasing an S-shaped spinal column typical of mammals, was mounted on a wooden base for display and could be scaled up with larger printers. The utility of 3D anatomical models has increased among medical students and health programs for hands-on understanding of complex relationships in anatomy.
IMPROVING THE PERFORMANCE OF AD-HOC NETWORK USING ENHANCED INTERIOR GATEWAY ROUTING TECHNIQUE [PDF] AHUCHAOGU NNAMDI, EZEKIEL NNAMERE ANEKEMobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs) are an emerging class of network architectures that are characterized by their highly dynamic topology, limited resources (i.e bandwidth and power), and lack of fixed infrastructure. The primary motivation for such networks is increased flexibility and mobility. There are number of paths in ad hoc network for communication between the nodes and selection of the shortest path from those paths is one of the key issues. One of the particularly important networking issues in mobile ad hoc network is Routing. This research explores the use of bandwidth estimation and path selection model in determining the transmission paths with the minimum and maximum delay metric. Furthermore, the delay metrics was identified to be above the threshold of ≤ 5ms. A modified shortest path algorithm using an Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Technique was developed to reduce the delay, routing over-head caused by flooding,and mitigate the re-routing problems in ad hoc network. A database was also developed using Microsoft structured query language software and class C Internet Protocol (IP) address to enhance easy identification and accessibility of files by the nodes and to checkmate intruders to the network using their Media Access Control (MAC) address. A performance improvement of about 5% was recorded as shown in the simulation result. The developed algorithm has a smaller end-to-end delay when compared to existing ones as it provided a reduced delay metric and enhanced the performance of ad hoc network when implemented. A moderate packet size should be used in ad hoc networks since a larger packet size take a higher time for transmission.
PRECISE SENTIMENT ANALYSIS FOR COVID-19 VACCINATION RESPONSES USING BILSTM-MCNN MODEL [PDF] Md. Abdur Rahman Al-Mahadie, Rubaiyat Yasmin, Mousumi Haque, Mirza A. F. M. Rashidul HasanIn the past three years, the COVID-19 pandemic has become the main threat to mankind diversely affecting people all over the world. To mitigate the risk, the COVID-19 vaccination is now continuing throughout the world. COVID-19 vaccination has been an important topic of discussion throughout the world since the start of vaccination campaigns. In this paper, we have worked through a system methodology to evaluate public sentiment toward COVID-19 vaccination using social media platform such as Twitter dataset. This system methodology has analyzed the public sentiment using a lexicon-based approach named Valence Aware Dictionary for sEntiment Reasoner (VADER). To evaluate public sentiment more perfectly, we partitioned the sentiments into five classes named Very Negative Impression, Negative Impression, Neutral Impression, Positive Impression, and Very Positive Impression rather than the three sentiments used in general named positive, negative, and neutral. To classify the sentiment more perfectly, we have proposed the BILSTM-MCNN model which is a combination of Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BILSTM) and Multiple Layers Convolutional Neural Network (MCNN). The Proposed BILSTM-MCNN model exhibits superior performance with a 96.82% accuracy for the Twitter dataset as well as outstrips other Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) models. This research provides a good projection of the thoughts of the mass population about COVID-19 vaccination and supports the aim of vaccinating most of the people worldwide.
