With the use of motion-tracked controllers, the application allows users to grab and assemble bones within the virtual environment to learn about the location and orientation of the different bones within a human skeleton while also educating them on the names of the bones being interacted with. We aim to bring a new experience to users by providing an interactive and immersive environment that makes learning more intriguing while also providing different difficulty modes to keep users engaged and challenged. We further discuss students’ feedback in a VR class to identify the limitations of our approach and evaluate its usefulness. While aiming at human anatomy, our interactive puzzle assembly application can be extended to other research and application domains such as chemical compound structure assembly and structure-based drug design.","PeriodicalId":341589,"journal":{"name":"The 12th International Conference on Advances in Information Technology","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127796310","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}

In this work, we focus on primary skin lesion classification, particularly early-stage detection, and present a deep learning approach to classify images containing skin lesions, macule, nodule, papule, plaque pustule, wheal, and bulla. We applied deep learning techniques for classifying such images into seven classes covering the aforementioned types of lesion. In particular, we performed experiments on pre-trained deep convolutional neural network models to find the most accuracy one.

However, traditionally the Computer Science (CS) researchers have investigated the technical aspects of cybersecurity, focusing on the encryption and network security mechanisms. The human aspect although very important is often neglected. In this work we carry out a scoping review to investigate the take of the CS community on the human-centric cybersecurity paradigm by considering the top conferences on network and computer security for the past six years. Results show that broadly two types of users are considered: expert and non-expert users. Qualitative techniques dominate the research methodology employed, however, there is a lack of focus on the theoretical aspects. Moreover, the samples have a heavy bias towards the Western community, due to which the results cannot be generalized, and the effect of culture on cybersecurity is a lesser known aspect. Another issue is with respect to the unavailability of standardized security-specific scales that can measure the cybersecurity perception of the users. New insights are obtained and avenues for future research are presented.","PeriodicalId":341589,"journal":{"name":"The 12th International Conference on Advances in Information Technology","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128456099","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}

Twitter has been a rapidly growing microblogging social networking website where people express their opinions in a precise and simple manner of expressions. It has also become a platform for governmental, non-governmental and individual opinions and policy announcements. Detecting sentiments from tweets has a wide range of applications including identifying the anxiety or depression of individuals and measuring the well-being or mood of a community. In addition, the sentiment classification becomes complex when the tweet is written in codemix language which is a mix of two different languages. The main objective of this paper is to classify tweets written in mix of Tamil and English language into positive, negative, or neutral. This is achieved by fine tuning a pretrained multilingual text representation model as well as deep learning transformers. The proposed approach is experimented with large scale of tweets collected for societal issues in India. We also provide a comparative study of different machine learning and deep learning models. The proposed architecture based on neural linguistic representation provides significant accuracy in classifying both Tamil and codemix tweets.","PeriodicalId":341589,"journal":{"name":"The 12th International Conference on Advances in Information Technology","volume":"165 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116047820","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}

Accurate building load predictions are useful for energy efficient building design selection and demand-side management initiatives. Using historical building energy consumption data has allowed researchers to develop machine learning models to improve the accuracy of such predictions, beyond inefficient traditional approaches otherwise used by the building sector. This work examines gradient boosting machine learning models, namely LightGBM, CatBoost, and XGBoost, for the purpose of comparing their performance on a select dataset. These gradient boosting models are popular in Kaggle machine learning contest solutions but have not been compared formally for the application of building energy consumption predictions. This work applies the three gradient boosting algorithms to a synthesized dataset for a large office building in Chicago. Preliminary results from the presented comparison demonstrate that XGBoost performs better than LightGBM and CatBoost when trained on the selected dataset.","PeriodicalId":341589,"journal":{"name":"The 12th International Conference on Advances in Information Technology","volume":"272 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131691590","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}

In this paper, we design an interface to visualize students’ weekly journal entries collected as formative educational assessments from an undergraduate data visualization course and a statistics course. Using these qualitative data, we present an interactive WordStream and word cloud to show the temporal and topic-based organization of students’ development during instruction and explore the patterns, trends, and diversity of student ideas in a context-specific way. Informed by the Technology Acceptance Model, we used an informal user study to evaluate the perceived ease of use and usefulness of the tool for instructors using journal entries. Our evaluation found the tool to be intuitive, clear, and easy-to-use to explore student entries, especially words of interest, but might be limited by focusing on word frequencies rather than underlying relationships among the student’s ideas or other measures in assessment.

When using a single robot in a large working space like a factory, the performance and robustness are needed to be increased. Multi-Agent Robot System (MAR) is introduced to meet this requirement. MAR could increase productivity and flexibility while works in a dynamic environment because it is modular and can work simultaneously. When MAR combines with Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) technology, it can explore and discover the indoor environment cooperatively and simultaneously. Each robot creates its map with different initial poses and path planning. The main issue of a Multi-Robot SLAM (MRSLAM) is how to combine maps from different robots correctly. In this research, we will focus on algorithms of map merging. SIFT and ORB descriptors are selected along with some image processing techniques, and a proposed approach including the algorithms is verified by general benchmark map data. The results will be shown and discussed. Then, the proposed approach will be deployed into a real robot platform based on Robot Operating System (ROS). Experiments will be conducted to prove the feasibility and the limitation of the proposed approach in the real-world scenario.","PeriodicalId":341589,"journal":{"name":"The 12th International Conference on Advances in Information Technology","volume":"111 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115126199","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}

Hence, users may prefer to publish their stream to multiple service endpoints simultaneously to increase visibility. However, most service providers prefer to monopolize their services. Hence, a study of a suitable architectural design of a streaming service that supports multiple streaming endpoints has not gained lots of attention. In this study, the effect of adopting different architectural design on developing a live streaming service over LTE network which can supports multiple streaming endpoints are investigated. Two major designs are selected which are a selective forwarding unit based architecture, and a non-selective forwarding unit based architecture. The results suggest that a selective forwarding unit architecture has an advantage over a non-selective forwarding unit based architecture on keeping overall average streaming end-to-end delay to be minimum., while a fluctuation in an end-to-end delay occurs in a non-selective forwarding unit based architecture in our experiment testbed.
