Mask Detection System with Computer Vision-Based on CNN and YOLO Method Using Nvidia Jetson Nano
Get PDFHealth is an essential aspect of life. The World Health Organization (WHO) has officially declared the Corona Virus (Covid-19) a global pandemic that has spread to Indonesia. For preventive measures against Covid-19, the Indonesian government is trying to deal with the Covid-19 pandemic with 3M health protocol aimed at community activities, such as Memakai Masker (wearing masks), Mencuci Tangan (washing hands), and Menjaga Jarak (maintaining distance). In this study, software and hardware design was carried out to detect mask users and immediately warn violators who do not use masks automatically and can function automatically offline by utilizing digital image processing using NVIDIA Jetson Nano using the YOLO (You Only Look Once) method. The CNN YOLOv4-tiny model is chosen to obtain measurement results for mask user detection accuracy because it has a relatively minor computational value and is faster. The best camera detection angle is obtained at a vulnerable angle of 45O-90O or in the range of 90O-135O with value confidence that the average is 99.94% and the best accuracy is at a lux value greater than 70, and a minimum camera height of 1 meter and a maximum of 3 meters. Under conditions of lux 96 (bright), the maximum distance for detecting a face object is 12 meters, and the ability of the system to output a warning sound has been successfully integrated with a relay to run the mp3 module separately from the system, so as not to interfere with the Jetson Nano computation process and the model is successfully run on the Jetson Nano with an average computation of 13 frames per second
Prototyping Disaster Preparedness Information System: A Case of Pandeglang District, Indonesia
Get PDFIn December 2018, a tsunami triggered by the eruption of Anak Krakatau Volcano (AKV) devastated the coastal area of Pandeglang, Indonesia, claiming hundreds of lives and leaving thousands missing. This tragedy underscores the critical importance of enhancing tsunami awareness through disaster preparedness and education. However, the lack of disaster preparedness in vulnerable areas, such as Pandeglang, remains a significant challenge. This is evident from the absence of early warning systems and evacuation initiatives at the time of the tsunami, highlighting the urgent need for improved disaster resilience in at-risk communities. This research aims to develop the disaster preparedness information system to equip society with sufficient knowledge and skill in case of the next disaster. The method this research uses is Soft Systems Methodology (SSM) to obtaining system requirements to the development of prototype. The prototype of a disaster preparedness information system was developed as a result. The system can be accessed using a smartphone or computer. This study introduces a novel approach by proposing a new prototype of disaster preparedness information specifically tailored for vulnerable areas in developing countries
Assessment of Deep Learning Model System for Blood Glucose Time-Series Prediction
Get PDFDiabetes has become one of the most severe and prevalent chronic diseases, leading to life-threatening, costly, and disabling consequences and reduced life expectancy. Uncontrolled blood glucose (BG) conditions become a factor in diabetes mellitus sufferers, which then causes BG levels that are too high (hyperglycemia) and too low (hypoglycemia). People with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) require long-term BG management to keep BG levels. Deep learning models using Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) data to monitor and regulate BG concentrations in diabetic patients with prediction values to prevent hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia is very important. Based on some of the latest research, the deep learning Temporal Fusion Transformer (TFT) model is considered an approach method with superior performance in time-series prediction. Therefore, in this study, two TFT models, the TFT and AutoTFT univariate models, were proposed for the time-series BG prediction for T1DM patients. In this study, the two proposed TFT models with two baseline models, were trained and tested on the ShanghaiT1DM dataset. The proposed and baseline models were trained using manual and auto-tuning hyperparameters with Optuna on cross-validation for prediction horizons (PHs) of 30 and 60 minutes, respectively. The performance metrics used to evaluate the models were mean absolute error (MAE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), and root mean squared error (RMSE). As a result, the TFT model is superior to the baseline LSTM model, also the proposed AutoTFT models achieved the smallest MAE, MAPE, and RMSE for both 30 and 60-minute PHs, respectively of all models used. Besides, the BG prediction results with 30-minute PHs are better than those with 60-minute PHs for all the models. This shows that the AutoTFT model stands as a promising tool for the accurate prediction of adverse glycemic events
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
