Object Detection has been one of the areas of interest of research community for over years and has made significant advances in its journey so far. There is a tremendous scope in the applications that would benefit with more innovations in the domain of object detection. Rapid growth in the field of machine learning has complemented the efforts in this area and in the recent times, research community has contributed a lot in real time object detection. In the current work, authors have implemented real time object detection and have made efforts to improve the accuracy of the detection mechanism. In the current research, we have used ssd_v2_inception_coco model as Single Shot Detection models deliver significantly better results. A dataset of more than 100 raw images is used for training and then xml files are generated using labellimg. Tensor flow records generated are passed through training pipelines using the proposed model. OpenCV captures real-time images and CNN performs convolution operations on images. The real time object detection delivers an accuracy of 92.7%, which is an improvement over some of the existing models already proposed earlier. Model detects hundreds of objects simultaneously. In the proposed model, accuracy of object detection significantly improvises over existing methodologies in practice. There is a substantial dataset to evaluate the accuracy of proposed model. The model may be readily useful for object detection applications including parking lots, human identification, and inventory management.

The data stored in data warehouse is used for making strategic decisions by integrating heterogeneous data from multiple sources at a single storage place, where data is used for querying and analysis purposes. With the advancement in the technology, Business Analytics and Business intelligence are being increasingly used in the financial sector for forecasting business decisions. Many On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) tools are being largely explored that can contribute to business decision making. Banking operation handles a lot of data as they operate daily. Subsequently, preparing of this tremendous volume of information requires instant and quick tools that can process the information at high processing speeds. Through this research paper, we represent the OLAP cube as one of the tools which can be used for business analysis. A case study of a bank and loan approval process is considered as one of the areas for implementation and analysis of business decisions using business intelligence which can serve as a key factor for increasing intelligence in the banking sector to make reliable business decisions. Higher management can forecast and predict various outcomes from the bank data warehouse using On-Line Analytical Processing technology which provided a multidimensional view of the data. Analysts can make business decisions by analyzing the reports and pattern trends in the graphs. Management can modify existing policies and procedures to increase the growth of the bank and can have a healthy competition with their competitors.

The coronavirus pandemic has compelled academic institutions across the globe to initiate online teaching, impacting thereby the teaching-learning process to undergo a structural change. Among various pedagogical techniques that have been adopted, organizing synchronous classes has been found to be the most beneficial. It simulates the classroom environment, facilitating thereby parallel knowledge dissemination to a broader audience. This study measures the efficacy of synchronous web-based learning during this ongoing pandemic, among postgraduate Library and Information Science (LIS) students of Bangladesh. Using an online questionnaire, a survey was conducted among the postgraduate students of the Department of Information Science Library Management (ISLM) of the University of Dhaka. The results revealed that limitation of internet data, unstable internet, along with power blackouts were some of the primary inhibitors blocking the participants to attend classes online. Finally, this study concludes that as most students do not seem to be ready yet to study in a synchronous delivery mode, it recommends educational institutions in Bangladesh to provide an alternative delivery method, in order to sustain academic excellence in these challenging times.

In many significant characteristics of the modern world, including particular industry, agriculture, and military applications, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have begun to emerge. Even though energy consumption is the greatest challenge confronting WSNs, it is essential to analyse the feasibility of the use of mobile components for the data collection on WSN networks. To collect information from their sensing terrain, WSNs use significant numbers of wireless sensor nodes. The method of acquiring data from the sensor nodes and forwarding this data to the node or base station is Data Collection (DC). In such methods, data collection is effective and efficient in data transfer for an extended WSN lifetime. The scientific and investigational analysis demonstrated that Routing Path Selection-DC has the robustness and low energy, is required to reduce the mobile sink's energy demand, which provides better results, and is adaptable dynamically to multiple situations, including the variance between the ground robot and the cost of energy. The research paper developed an approach that creates a data collection schedule that is collision-free where appropriate power limits are allocated and verifies its overall performance of virtual environment network latency.

Due to enchantment in network technology, the worldwide numbers of internet users are growing rapidly. Most of the internet users are using online purchasing from various sites. Due to new online shopping trends over the internet, the seller needs to predict the online customer’s choice. This field is a new area of research for machine learning researchers. A random forest (RF) machine learning method is a widely used classification method. It is mainly based on an ensemble of a single decision tree. Online e-commerce websites accumulate a massive quantity of data in large dimensions. A Random Forest is an efficient filter in high-dimensional data to reliably classify consumer behaviour factors. This research article mainly proposed an extension of the Random Forest classifier named “Weighted Random Forests” (wRF), which incorporates tree-level weights to provide much more accurate trees throughout the calculation as well as an assessment of vector relevance. The weighted random forest algorithm incorporates the C4.5 method named a “Hybrid Weighted Random Forest” (HWRF) to forecast online consumer purchasing behaviour. The experimental results influence the quality of the proposed method in the prediction of the behaviour of online buying customers over existing methods.

In an EPS lesson, the student can learn in three different ways, including learning by doing, observing, or thinking; the last method will be the subject of our study, the objective of which is to show how a debate of ideas (sociocognitive conflict), between a group of students will make it possible to construct learning through the educational mediation of the teacher? So by verbalizing the problems encountered in learning situations and concretizing theoretical behaviors (proceduralization of knowledge), students will be able to learn in an autonomous and responsible manner (self-management). This expected result is one of the purposes of competence-based pedagogy as well as the pedagogical orientations, namely to train a citizen capable of developing powers of analysis and reflection and the ability to adapt (the national charter for education and training) Control groups were planned to facilitate comparison of the results. At the end of the experiment, we noticed that the students in the experienced groups made greater progress than those in the control groups. The progress that has been made by the experienced groups confirms the research hypothesis that the learning built by the students themselves through a collective project based on the verbalization of actions and problem solving is not only more profitable for the students but also for the teacher

Research in ​​educational innovation has generally focused on teaching practices. Innovation in our society carries many identities. In the collective imagination, it refers to our own representation of what is new. In our research work, we have focused on identifying the factors of innovation in the field of qualifying secondary education. We used a questionnaire of 78 items, structured in 5 areas: the conditions, the moments, the reasons, the domains, and the objects of experimentation of the new actions in teaching-learning. This questionnaire is administered to a sample of 149 teachers. We proceeded by a descriptive and exploratory research of mixed qualitative and quantitative type) The results of which showed the existence of personal factors and those which are in relation to the context and the working conditions in educational establishments, and which are points of reflection on the logic of school innovation. We can deduce that an analysis of the relationships that teachers have with innovation opens heuristic perspectives in terms of research and training in education.
