The COVID-19 pandemic has sped up the acceptance of online education as a substitute for conventional classroom instruction. E-Learning emerged as an instant solution to avoid academic loss for students. As a result, educators and academics are becoming more and more interested in comprehending how students behave in e-learning settings. Behavior analysis of students in an e-learning environment can provide vision and influential factors that can improve learning outcomes and guide the creation of efficient interventions. The main objective of this work is to provide a system that analyzes the behavior and actions of students during e-learning which can help instructors to identify and track student attention levels so that they can design their content accordingly. This study has presented a fresh method for examining student behavior. Viola–Jones was used to recognize the student using the object’s movement factor, and a region-shrinking technique was used to isolate occluded items. Each object has been checked by a human using a template-matching approach, and for each object that has been confirmed, features are computed at the skeleton and silhouette levels. A genetic algorithm was used to categorize the behavior. Using this system, instructors can spot kids who might be failing or uninterested in learning and offer them specific interventions to enhance their learning environment. The average attained accuracy for the MED and Edu-Net datasets are 90.5% and 85.7%, respectively. These results are more accurate when compared to other methods currently in use.

Based on the rapid increase in the demand for people counting and tracking systems for surveillance applications, there is a critical need for more accurate, efficient, and reliable systems. The main goal of this study was to develop an accurate, sustainable, and efficient system that is capable of error-free counting and tracking in public places. The major objective of this research is to develop a system that can perform well in different orientations, different densities, and different backgrounds. We propose an accurate and novel approach consisting of preprocessing, object detection, people verification, particle flow, feature extraction, self-organizing map (SOM) based clustering, people counting, and people tracking. Initially, filters are applied to preprocess images and detect objects. Next, random particles are distributed, and features are extracted. Subsequently, particle flows are clustered using a self-organizing map, and people counting and tracking are performed based on motion trajectories. Experimental results on the PETS-2009 dataset reveal an accuracy of 86.9% for people counting and 87.5% for people tracking, while experimental results on the TUD-Pedestrian dataset yield 94.2% accuracy for people counting and 94.5% for people tracking. The proposed system is a useful tool for medium-density crowds and can play a vital role in people counting and tracking applications.
