Thus, the convergence of Semler's style, the expectations of today's work-force and Machine Learning that provides supportive and corrective functions can indeed define the organizational structure and culture required for success today and tomorrow.","PeriodicalId":277894,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Digitization (ICD)","volume":"128 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128148350","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}

Today, the advertisement industry is more dynamic and widespread than ever before; thousands of products are launched every day, to cater to the changing needs and demands of its users the advertisement industry also needs to evolve. Heeding to the need for more effective advertising, this paper tries to establish the idea of perceptive advertising- a responsive advertising system based on facial recognition. This paper proposes a system that captures, identifies and analyses facial features of a person to estimate the gender (86% accuracy). The gender estimated will then be used to model another system which would display advertisements appropriate to that gender, as identified by the previous system strategy. The posited idea will make individuals the focal point of advertising, helping businesses reach the right audience with ease, eventually increasing their sales and profit. Consumers can avoid irrelevant ads and get quick access to the products and services they might need.

There have been numerous techniques that were proposed in 5G cellular technology for sustainability and enhancing the lifespan of centralized power sources in mobile and future IoT devices. Throughout this research paper, a literature review of the main current advancements of EH technology and SWIPT techniques will be presented as well as its achievements. An implementation of one of the Energy Harvesting techniques which is the SWIPT, in a cooperative relay scenario is presented in this paper and it is applied with a proper simulation tool. The simulation will mainly be implemented in MATLAB, which is divided into several functions computing the essential primary values for the proposed EH network. Firstly, the relay scenario that comprises a base station and two receivers with one receiver acting as a relay station while the other act as the final receiver for both transmissions. Secondly, the SWIPT technique is implemented in the Relay stations, where the AF protocol is utilized. Finally, the last receiver will receive both signals which represent the information decoding and the EH signals from the relay stations. The evaluation of the simulation results will be discussed in the final stages of the research. The outcome of this research will be the simulation results in which the estimation of the EH efficiency is evaluated based on two factors including; the number of EH subcarriers in the final receiver, and the average allocated power for EH transmission received by the final receiver. The idea behind this research paper was to search for an efficient method to harvest energy from the next nominated waveform of the 5th generation mobile communication OFDM. The anticipated outcome of this paper is beneficial in minimizing the cellular operation cost, extending the user equipment (UE) battery life, and creating an overall conserving green communication.","PeriodicalId":277894,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Digitization (ICD)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133526616","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}

Therefore, there is an essential need to analyze this data for many purposes. In this paper, a deep analysis on Facebook comment volume prediction have been conducted to demonstrate the effect of the number of comments on marketing. The data used consists of 603,813 observations provided by Facebook. It includes fifty-three input attributes that have been used to predict the number of comments a post is going to have in the next H hours. Moreover, several Machine Learning techniques have been applied to analyze this considerable amount of data. For instance, Stepwise Linear Regression, Gradient Boosting, Neural Network, and Decision Tree models. Findings indicate that Neural Network model outperformed the other models used in previous studies with the smallest error; when Stepwise Linear Regression is used as a variable selection for it. However, Gradient Boosting outperformed other models with a Hits@10 score of 6.7. Additionally, one of the most crucial outcomes of this study is determining the most significant variables. Particularly, it was found that the publication day of the post, number of check-ins, shares or likes on the page, and the number of comments in the last 24 or 48 hours were the most important variables. These variables contribute to garner more comments, which results in more viewers and higher profit for the marketer. The study concludes with some limitations and suggestions for future research.","PeriodicalId":277894,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Digitization (ICD)","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128591093","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}

It is a major hub for investments in various sectors from several countries. The focus on digitization initiated by the Government of India has taken off over the past decade for both individual citizens and business firms. The initiatives for business is already transforming the way commerce is conducted and is expected to position the country among the top seven globally to go entirely digital. However, this cannot be done by ignoring the unorganized, small and medium scale enterprises. Several aspects and functions of business are now monitored and regulated digitally. The procurement of funds to run the business is no exception. There is significant scope for digital lending platforms to fund MSMEs (Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises) who are ill-equipped to deal with the procedures and lead time involved. These platforms often serve as ‘white knights’ to firms in distress. Digital lending platforms have gained in prominence recently as there is a funding crisis in India due to a sharp downturn in the banking and non-banking- financial services (NBFC) sectors. Access to funding, at viable cost and when needed has become a critical success factor for the MSME sector. Digital lending as an industry by itself or a segment of a broader industry owes its growth to the power of IT and acceptance of digital financial transactions by regulating authorities like central banks. IT has made evaluating creditworthiness smarter and quicker. The increased penetration of smartphones and websites has enhanced access to customer data (individual and corporate) and processing at speeds not experienced before. This gives digital lenders a competitive advantage of efficient evaluation of credit risk in lending to MSMEs and start-ups. The focus of this paper is the study of traditional lending practices for MSMEs and identifying the potential for digital lending to the MSME sector in India.","PeriodicalId":277894,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Digitization (ICD)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116756314","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}
