Abnormal activity detection plays a crucial role in surveillance applications, and a surveillance system that can perform robustly in an academic environment has become an urgent need. In this paper, we propose a novel framework for an automatic real-time video-based surveillance system which can simultaneously perform the tracking, semantic scene learning, and abnormality detection in an academic environment. To develop our system, we have divided the work into three phases: preprocessing phase, abnormal human activity detection phase, and content-based image retrieval phase. For motion object detection, we used the temporal-differencing algorithm and then located the motions region using the Gaussian function. Furthermore, the shape model based on OMEGA equation was used as a filter for the detected objects (i.e., human and non-human). For object activities analysis, we evaluated and analyzed the human activities of the detected objects. We classified the human activities into two groups: normal activities and abnormal activities based on the support vector machine. The machine then provides an automatic warning in case of abnormal human activities. It also embeds a method to retrieve the detected object from the database for object recognition and identification using content-based image retrieval. Finally, a software-based simulation using MATLAB was performed and the results of the conducted experiments showed an excellent surveillance system that can simultaneously perform the tracking, semantic scene learning, and abnormality detection in an academic environment with no human intervention.

Alzheimer Disease (AD) is the ordinary type of dementia which does not have any proper and efficient medication. Accurate classification and detection of AD helps to diagnose AD in an earlier stage, for that purpose machine learning and deep learning techniques are used in AD detection which observers both normal and abnormal brain and accurately detect AD in an early. For accurate detection of AD, we proposed a novel approach for detecting AD using MRI images. The proposed work includes three processes such as tri-level pre-processing, swin transfer based segmentation, and multi-scale feature pyramid fusion module-based AD detection.In pre-processing, noises are removed from the MRI images using Hybrid Kuan Filter and Improved Frost Filter (HKIF) algorithm, skull stripping is performed by Geodesic Active Contour (GAC) algorithm which removes the non-brain tissues that increases detection accuracy. Here, bias field correction is performed by Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm which removes the intensity non-uniformity. After completed pre-processing, we initiate segmentation process using Swin Transformer based Segmentation using Modified U-Net and Generative Adversarial Network (ST-MUNet) algorithm which segments the gray matter, white matter, and cerebrospinal fluid from the brain images by considering cortical thickness, color, texture, and boundary information which increases segmentation accuracy. After that, multi-scale feature extraction is performed by Multi-Scale Feature Pyramid Fusion Module using VGG16 (MSFP-VGG16) which extract the features in multi-scale which increases the detection and classification accuracy, based on the extracted features the brain image is classified into three classes such as Alzheimer Disease (AD), Mild Cognitive Impairment, and Normal. The simulation of this research is conducted by Matlab R2020a simulation tool, and the performance of this research is evaluated by ADNI dataset in terms of accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, confusion matrix, and positive predictive value.

The leading cause of cancer-related mortality is breast cancer. Breast cancer detection at an early stage is crucial. Data on breast cancer can be diagnosed using a number of different Machine learning approaches. Automated breast cancer diagnosis using a Machine Learning model is introduced in this research. Features were selected using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) as a classifier model, and noise was removed using Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE). On top of that, the research compares five algorithms: Random Forest, SVM, KNN, Naïve Bayes classifier, and Logistic Regression. An extensive dataset of 3002 combined images was used to test the system. The dataset included information from 1400 individuals who underwent digital mammography between 2007 and 2015. Accuracy and precision are the metrics by which the system's performance is evaluated. Due to its low computing power requirements and excellent accuracy, our suggested model is shown to be quite efficient in the simulation results.

Deep learning has effectively solved complicated challenges ranging from large data analytics to human level control and computer vision. However, deep learning has been used to produce software that threatens privacy, democracy, and national security. Deepfake is one of these new applications backed by deep learning. Fake images and movies created by Deepfake algorithms might be difficult for people to tell apart from real ones. This necessitates the development of tools that can automatically detect and evaluate the quality of digital visual media. This paper provides an overview of the algorithms and datasets used to build deepfakes, as well as the approaches presented to detect deepfakes to date. By reviewing the background of deepfakes methods, this paper provides a complete overview of deepfake approaches and promotes the creation of new and more robust strategies to deal with the increasingly complex deepfakes.
