With the decreasing cost of traffic cameras and rapid advancement in computer vision and artificial intelligence, developing robust traffic surveillance systems has become more feasible and practical. These systems can easily outperform traditional human monitoring systems, as they can collect and analyze traffic data coming from multiple cameras efficiently. A good understanding of this data allows the detection easily road anomalies in real time and in an autonomous way. Therefore, an intelligent traffic system typically consists of three components: object detection, object tracking, and behavior analysis components. In this paper, we present a review of some of the well-known object detection techniques used in traffic video surveillance. The review begins with a brief introduction to the history of object detection and the evolution of its techniques. Then we review separately the two main approaches of detection, which are traditional and deep learning approaches of detection. Finally, an experimental analysis has been conducted to evaluate and compare the performance of some of the recent relevant detection methods in terms of speed and precision, in detecting vehicles in a traffic scenario.

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is an integral part of internet-of-things (IoT), where a large scale of data transmission and various complex services are identified to be delivered. In order to facilitate these services, energy efficiency is one critical demand for resource-constraint sensor nodes. Carrier sense multiple access (CSMA) has been considered for effective traffic management for high-end data delivery services. A review of existing literature on CSMA-based schemes shows that it has not yet achieved an optimal case of energy efficiency. Hence, the proposed study presents a novel computational framework in order to address this research gap. The prime contribution of the proposed study is towards presenting an optimal computational model for maximized fairness in data dissemination services in WSN especially focusing on energy efficiency. The presented study model also contributes towards optimizing route buffer and buffer power, which facilitates towards availability of energy-efficient path information. The study also introduces a mobile auxiliary node that aggregates the data from sensor nodes and delivers it to the sink node considering dynamic location updates for seamless transmission. Scripted in MATLAB, the proposed scheme exhibited 70% energy saving compared to conventional schemes of CSMA in WSN.

Millions of people died worldwide as a result of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic that started in early 2020. Examining the COVID-19 susceptible-exposed-infected-recovery (SEIR) mathematical model is one approach to developing the best control scenario for this disease. The study utilized two control variables, vaccination, and therapy, to construct a control function that relied on the quadratic Lyapunov function. The control objective was to lower the number of COVID-19 infections while maintaining system stability. A genetic algorithm (GA) is used as a novel method to estimate controller parameter value to replace the previously used parameter tuning procedure. Then, a numerical simulation was carried out implementing three control scenarios, namely vaccination control only, treatment control only, and vaccination and treatment control simultaneously. Based on the results, scenario 3 (vaccination and treatment simultaneously) showed the most significant decrease: the average decrease in the exposed human population was 98.29%, and the infected human population was 98.18%.

Bandpass filters for millimeter-wave band applications are typically designed using resonators. However, the design of a multilayer coplanar waveguide (CPW) monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) bandpass filter for 5G millimeter-wave band, n257 with operating frequencies from 26.5 to 29.5 GHz is still not available. Therefore, in this work, a compact bandpass filter for 5G millimeter-wave application was designed with multilayer CPW MMIC bandpass filter based on a meander resonator. The meander resonator of the bandpass filter was designed using low-loss multilayer CPW lines. In designing the bandpass filter, the resonator length and perturbation was utilized to optimize the resonance and bandwidth, and meander resonator was used to miniaturize the bandpass filter. As result, a compact bandpass filter with size of 0.75×0.75 mm2 for 5G millimeter-wave band n257 was achieved. It has bandwidth of 3 GHz, an insertion loss of -2.87 dB and a return loss of -11.1 dB at frequency 28 GHz.

Plant diseases can severely impact crop yields, posing a major risk to worldwide food stability. Prompt and precise identification of these diseases is crucial for early intervention and efficient crop administration. This paper introduces an innovative method for detecting plant leaf diseases using residual networks (ResNets) and the PlantVillage dataset. To develop light weight residual (LWR) architecture, five convolutional layers are interleaved with five max-pooling layers, making up the architecture of ten layers. The number of filters in the convolutional layers is gradually increased from 32 to 64 and up to 512 with a 3×3 kernel. A fully connected layer is the last layer of the network which provides the classification of leaf diseases The LWR architecture is trained and evaluated using the PlantVillage dataset, a broad collection of annotated images. This dataset serves as the basis for the system. The findings of the experiments provide evidence that the suggested system has higher accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity measures. The use of residual networks in LWR architecture improves the capability of the model to acquire complicated representations, which in turn enables a more precise differentiation between healthy and unhealthy plant leaves.

Automatic short answer grading (ASAG) has become part of natural language processing problems. Modern ASAG systems start with natural language preprocessing and end with grading. Researchers started experimenting with machine learning in the preprocessing stage and deep learning techniques in automatic grading for English. However, little research is available on automatic grading for Arabic. Datasets are important to ASAG, and limited datasets are available in Arabic. In this research, we have collected a set of questions, answers, and associated grades in Arabic. We have made this dataset publicly available. We have extended to Arabic the solutions used for English ASAG. We have tested how automatic grading works on answers in Arabic provided by schoolchildren in 6th grade in the context of serious games. We found out those schoolchildren providing answers that are 5.6 words long on average. On such answers, deep learning-based grading has achieved high accuracy even with limited training data. We have tested three different recurrent neural networks for grading. With a transformer, we have achieved an accuracy of 95.67%. ASAG for school children will help detect children with learning problems early. When detected early, teachers can solve learning problems easily. This is the main purpose of this research.
