The edge computing market today includes consumer apps and devices, and the industrial sector, where increasingly powerful CPUs drive everything from wind turbines to autonomous vehicles, robots, drones and equipment. The device market is growing explosively:
These devices gather a wealth of data from a broad array of sensors – and have the potential to optimize efficiency, safety and performance, and revolutionize productivity and user experiences. But to deliver these benefits they need to become truly smart, performing analysis, training and inference on high volumes of sensor data on-the-fly.
There is an urgent need for software that simplifies and automates data analysis and inference at the edge, helping devices and systems learn from and make predictions about their environment: Cameras that recognize and track their targets; self-driving cars that choose the least congested routes using real- time predictions for intersections ahead; and drones that dynamically swarm, find their targets and gather intelligence without human oversight.
These examples require each device to make decisions based on a real-time analysis of its own sensor data fused with the analysis and predictions from other systems: Drones in a swarm need to collaborate or they will collide; they must gossip their insights to each other to enable the swarm to perform effectively. Today, the software to enable each of these complex scenarios must be developed from scratch, starting with raw data feeds and network protocols. To unlock the potential of an edge environment rich in sensors and power-efficient computing platforms developers need a simple way to get from vast amounts of raw data to insights and predictions.
What's needed is a new Architecture for the intelligent edge – one that consumes raw data from devices at the edge, and automatically creates a “digital twin” for each real-world system from its data. Digital twins statefully process their own data at the edge, analyzing, learning and predicting in real-time. Digital twins can find anomalies or correlations in their own data, and self-train powerful neural network models that enable them to predict their future performance, then share semantically enriched insights with other digital twins to solve system problems. The architecture helps application developers by dynamically creating digital twins that learn from their own data – automatically building a model of the real world that is always up to date, executes in real-time, and makes accurate predictions of the behavior of complex systems.

For the scope of this project, it was decided to analyze the data to form distinct clusters based on their tumor type. Unsupervised learning (K-means clustering and hierarchical clustering) were used. Also, it was decided to analyze this data as a classification task. Based on different attributes (primarily mass spectrometry analysis results for 12553 proteins) few classification algorithms were implemented to see if the model can generate the accurate label of cancer type.

This work addresses the challenge of hate speech detection in Internet memes, and attempts using visual information to automatically detect hate speech, unlike any previous work of our knowledge. Memes are pixel-based multimedia documents that contain photos or illustrations together with phrases which, when combined, usually adopt a funny meaning. However, hate memes are also used to spread hate through social networks, so their automatic detection would help reduce their harmful societal impact. Our results indicate that the model can learn to detect some of the memes, but that the task is far from being solved with this simple architecture. While previous work focuses on linguistic hate speech, our experiments indicate how the visual modality can be much more informative for hate speech detection than the linguistic one in memes. In our experiments, we built a dataset of 5,020 memes to train and evaluate a multi-layer perceptron over the visual and language representations, whether independently or fused.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.

The proposed project is developed to manage the automobile in the automobile dealer company. The main module in this project is login, automobile management, customer management, sales, complaints and reports. The first module is the login. The automobile showroom owner should login to the project for usage. The username and password are verified and if it is correct, next form opens. If the username and password are not correct, it shows the error message.
When a customer search for a automobile, if the automobile is available, they will be taken to a page that shows the details of the automobile including automobile name, automobile ID, quantity, price etc. “Automobile Management System” is useful for maintaining automobiles, customers effectively and hence helps for establishing good relation between customer and automobile organization. It contains various customized modules for effectively maintaining automobiles and stock information accurately and safely.
When the automobile is sold to the customer, stock will be reduced automatically. When a new purchase is made, stock will be increased automatically. While selecting automobiles for sale, the proposed software will automatically check for total number of available stock of that particular item, if the total stock of that particular item is less than 5, software will notify the user to purchase the particular item.
Also when the user tries to sale items which are not in stock, the system will prompt the user that the stock is not enough. Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
