Due to hectic schedules and daily struggles, time is limited for parents. For that reason, the AI-powered child protection system helps protect children from modern cyber-attacks while offering parents more control over their children. Keyloggers, keystroke and mouse movement loggers help to collect data and can record user behaviour and find patterns. Furthermore, the use of those records is able to detect children’s improper behaviour and reveal children’s emotional states. Behavioral Data Extractor and Risk Analysis systems can analyze huge numbers of URLs and web content recorded by proxy, as well as application usage and screen times collected by background service. The Smart Resource Restricter is designed to help parents and children navigate the web safely and appropriately. The research can identify and prevent child predators. Indeed, cyberbullying and phishing attacks cross many boundaries, causing great harm to the community. It blocks outside threats and notifies parents of sexual and other online predators that often target children. The PandaGuardian successfully achieved its goal with the assistance of different algorithms and the respective outcomes. The model evaluation report, which compares all the methods, is a guardian companion.

Based on the detected number of victims and activity of disasters, emergency response unit can dispatch manpower more efficiently, which could save more lives. However, most of existing disaster detection methods fall into the class of single-task learning, which can either detect victim or classify disaster. In contrast, this paper proposes a YOLO-based multi-task model which performs the aforementioned tasks simultaneously. This is accomplished by attaching a disaster classification head model to the backbone of a victim detection model. The head model is inherited from the MobileNetv2 architecture, and we precisely select the backbone feature map layer to which the head model is attached. For the victim detection, results reveal that the solution achieves up to 0.6938 and 20.31 in terms of average precision and frame per second, respectively. Whereas for the disaster classification, the algorithm is comparable with most deep learning models that are specifically trained for single task. This shows that our solution is flexible and robust enough to handle both victim detection and disaster classification.","PeriodicalId":127072,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 12th Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference (UEMCON)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128259220","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There have been an attempt to implement the calling system over a wireless network, but the scale of coverage was very tiny. This project is based on a unified WiFi network which highly accessible and cheap to found, thus making it one of the cheapest approaches in this domain.

This research deals with detecting visual pollutants from the street images collected using Google Street View. For this experiment, we chose the streets of Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh, to build our image dataset, mainly because Dhaka was ranked recently as one the most polluted cities in the world. However, the methods shown in this study can be applied to images of any city around the world and would produce close to a similar output. Throughout this study, we tried to portray the possible utilisation of Google Street View in building datasets and how this data can be used to solve environmental pollution with the help of deep learning. The image dataset was created manually by taking screenshots from various angles of every street view with visual pollutants in the frame. The images were then manually annotated using CVAT and were fed into the model for training. For the detection, we have used the object detection model YOLOv5 to detect all the visual pollutants present in the image.

However, using a respiration sensor device for continuous monitoring is inconvenient and expensive. In this paper, an approach to acquire the respiration signal from the wrist electrocardiogram (ECG) is proposed. An analog front end (AFE) sampled at 100 Hz is used to collect ECG signals from the wrist to compute and verify the corresponding heart rate (HR) with a commercial ECG device. Signal processing mechanisms are applied on the raw data to denoise the ECG signal. The captured ECG signal is further processed to extract a breathing pattern to calculate a respiration rate (RR) in breath per minute (BPM). The extracted BPMs are compared with a commercial respiration monitor to validate the data by following a protocol at 5 different BPMs (12, 15, 20, 24 and 30). For each BPM, commercial respiration monitor is validated at first. Then, data are taken simultaneously wearing wrist electrodes and commercial respiratory device to validate the performance of our proposed method at different BPMs. The results indicate high accuracy of the proposed system which is low-cost, simpler to implement, can be integrated with a wearable device and remove the demand of any dedicated sensor for RR measurements.","PeriodicalId":127072,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 12th Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference (UEMCON)","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116670977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The approach is flexible and works with a limited and controlled number of subcarriers and can significantly improve peak power statistics of the optimized transmit signal. The traditional partitioning strategy of the PTS method allows all subchannels/subcarriers to contribute in the reduction of the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). Therefore, the traditional scheme is ineffective for controlling the nonlinear property, which may produce other peaks by rotating all subchannels of the OFDM signal. Although the PTS method can optimize the value of PAPR, the effect of the nonlinear property of the PTS method has not been properly addressed in the literature. In this paper, we examine the number of actual parameters/rotations used in the PTS method by suitably testing the nonlinear property on the rotated partial sequences. In contrast to the traditional partitioning strategy, the proposed strategy involves rotating half of the separated subcarriers to eliminate the effect of producing other peaks. The traditional and proposed schemes are compared through simulation results with respect to the required system complexity and the minimum PAPR of the OFDM transmit signal. Finally, it is shown that the controlled partitioning scheme is closer to the theoretical limit of PAPR optimization, and it also requires less system complexity than the traditional scheme.","PeriodicalId":127072,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 12th Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference (UEMCON)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122049913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
