A Web-Based Multi-Modal Ai Framework For Intelligent Content Moderation With Constructive Feedback, Marwah Zaid Mohammed Al-Helali, Naveen Palanichamy, Su-Cheng Haw, Subhashini Gopal
Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering
Traditional content moderation systems primarily rely on strict measures that focus on removing offending or inappropriate content without offering users any form of educational feedback or guidance. This lack of constructive interaction often leads to a poor user experience, leaving users frustrated and uninformed regarding the reasons behind content removal. Moreover, such a system fails to encourage long-term positive behavioural changes within online communities, as users do not gain insights on how to improve their conduct. This paper proposes a new constructive Artificial Intelligence (AI) intervention system that integrates a number of AI models in order to conceptualize content moderation …

Design Of A Cnn–Nlp Based Visual Chatbot For E-Commerce Systems, Sidra Kubra, Salma Jahan Nisha, Nbhan D. Salih, Amalina Ibrahim, Wan Noorshahida Mohd Isa
Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering
E-commerce platforms have limitations to assist interactive and highly personalized experiences using conventional text or voice-based chatbots, particularly in context-aware areas where product discovery and visual identification are necessary. Hence, we propose to integrate an image as a visual-based chatbot. We present a conceptual framework that combines Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) for image recognition with Natural Language Processing (NLP) for dynamic, context-aware search in a chatbot. The CNN model enables the recognition of products from user-uploaded images, while the NLP component processes and generates appropriate responses to enhance the shopping experience by providing suggestions. This hybrid system will be developed …

Enhancing Traffic Safety Through Ai-Driven, Privacy-Preserving, And Secure Impaired Driving Detection Systems, Razan Alsulieman
Dissertations
Drunk driving remains a major threat to road safety worldwide, contributing significantly to traffic injuries and fatalities each year. Traditional detection approaches are largely reactive and vehicle-centric, relying on in-vehicle sensors, breathalyzers, or post-incident enforcement. These methods often depend on driver cooperation, intrusive hardware installations, or limited monitoring environments, restricting their scalability and effectiveness in large transportation systems. At the same time, modern cities increasingly deploy roadside cameras, surveillance networks, and drone- based monitoring systems, creating new opportunities for proactive intoxication detection at the infrastructure level. However, leveraging such external monitoring introduces challenges related to secure data collection, reliable AI-based …

How Does Augmentation Affect Feature Space: A Study Using Various Augmentation Methods In Distributed Learning, Nikil Sharan Prabahar Balasubramanian
Computer Science Theses
This thesis examines the impact of data augmentation techniques on model performance within a distributed learning framework, focusing on enhancing feature diversity and improving representation for under-represented classes. Data augmentation, commonly used to address data imbalance, significantly influences the feature space learned by deep learning models, with varied effects in distributed settings where data is split across nodes. Our study reveals that inconsistencies in feature learning across nodes reduce the benefits of local augmentation in capturing complex patterns, leading to suboptimal model performance. To address this, we propose a coherent augmentation approach that embeds consistent transformations in the central server, …
