Many countries around the world are implementing IoT in their infrastructure and have become an integrated part of the workings of society. The study will focus on implementing a solution that uses AIoT, data gathered from IoT devices and machine learning in producing a solution that can accurately predict and suggest a suitable lighting technique.

As a result, many methods have been used in the literature to detect and monitor human lifelogs. Despite the plethora of applications, the classification and detection of human behaviours, which may result in inappropriate reactions and responses, still need to be more accurate. For instance, conventional machine learning techniques employ hand-crafted features based on a classification strategy. However, deep learning methods have shown improved recognition rates with better performance. Thus, this study was aimed at presenting a detailed overview of recent and state-of-the-art supervised and unsupervised human daily lifelog classification techniques. In addition, a comprehensive analysis will be presented of how various design parameters, such as the volume of features and other data fusion techniques from different sensor locations, can affect the overall recognition performance. Furthermore, with the rapid advancement of body-worn sensing technology and modelling approaches, the widespread usage of wearable sensors is anticipated to provide countless opportunities for precise and reliable inferences across a broad range of human activities.","PeriodicalId":283631,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on IT Innovation and Knowledge Discovery (ITIKD)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121988587","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}

With the emergence of digital platforms, their impact has skyrocketed, with mobile applications replacing more cumbersome physical cards with unique identification numbers on embedded magnetic strips or smart chips. However, these programs generally suffer from two major drawbacks that limit their growth. Firstly, physical cards and mobile applications are restricted to particular merchants and programs. There is no mechanism for customers to transfer their loyalty points between programs or to other customers (although airlines are pioneering efforts in this direction). Secondly, the payoffs of participating in these programs and transactions are not fair to all players (customers, merchants and program operators). Finally, the operational mechanisms of such programs are rarely transparent and traceable; hence, disputes are not easily mediated. Using the innovative strengths of blockchain technology, we present a conceptual architecture for a meta or universal customer loyalty program that supports the design principles of transparency, accountability, fairness and ethics.","PeriodicalId":283631,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on IT Innovation and Knowledge Discovery (ITIKD)","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130226566","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, various countries invest significantly in the heath sector to acquire state of the art health infrastructure. It may be noted that not all the countries are economically strong to meet the growing need of health services. Moreover, it is not possible that all countries have same medical experts available. In such case, patients have sometimes been shifted to other countries for treatments. This is an expensive process, whereas if the desired equipment is available locally, then it is possible to carryout treatment. The problem with such an arrangement is that the expertise of medical doctors may sometimes not available locally, whereas they need to be the part of treatment or surgery. The use of advanced technologies can help in achieving such goal. This research proposed and developed a simulator that can take voice commands to present visualized simulation for the guidance of the on-site surgeon to conduct surgery. The surgery is supposed to be done in supervision of expert surgeon connected remotely and the instruction passed by remote surgeon is translated and simulated for better results in surgery. The proposed simulator is devised and tested on four different types of surgeries and the results are very promising in achieving the desired goals.","PeriodicalId":283631,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on IT Innovation and Knowledge Discovery (ITIKD)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133345041","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}

Several techniques are thus used to optimize these algorithms such as resources clustering. In this paper, we propose a comparative study of some of most popular algorithms in order to highlight the situations in which each algorithm is more suitable.

The traditional mode of transportation, particularly on land, is now application-based. This provides several advantages, including flexibility, convenience, speed, and security. This is also influencing payment methods for these app-based transportation services. Transportation service providers, including one of them, continue to promote the use of this cashless method through promotion or a loyalty point program for service users. This is undeniably appealing to its users, particularly those born after the year 2000. The purpose of this study is to examine the behavior of users who switch to cashless payment methods and the impact on their behavior. Using SmartPLS 3.0 structural modeling and 120 participants in Jakarta, we used application-based transportation services from generation Z. According to the findings of this study, four hypotheses are accepted and three are rejected. This study specifically explains that switching costs have a significant impact on switching decisions. Furthermore, this study demonstrates that the decision to switch has a significant impact on user satisfaction. User satisfaction is significantly influenced by attitude promotion. According to the study's other findings, attitude toward promotion does not moderate the effect of switching costs on switching decisions. The limitations of this study stem from the use of variables that only use transitional forming factors, and satisfaction is based solely on attitude variables and transitional drivers from the promotion aspect. Meanwhile, other variables such as price competition from application-based transportation service providers or the number of competitors may have a different impact, enriching the study's findings. Another suggestion for future research is to cover research areas with sample sizes from different generations.","PeriodicalId":283631,"journal":{"name":"2023 International Conference on IT Innovation and Knowledge Discovery (ITIKD)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121656553","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}
