On-road obstacle detection is an important field of research that falls in the scope of intelligent transportation infrastructure systems. The use of vision-based approaches results in an accurate and cost-effective solution to such systems. In this research paper, we propose a threat detection mechanism for autonomous self-driving cars using dashcam videos to ensure the presence of any unwanted obstacle on the road that falls within its visual range. This information can assist the vehicle's program to en route safely. There are four major components, namely, YOLO to identify the objects, advanced lane detection algorithm, multi regression model to measure the distance of the object from the camera, the two-second rule for measuring the safety, and limiting speed. In addition, we have used the Car Crash Dataset(CCD) for calculating the accuracy of the model. The YOLO algorithm gives an accuracy of around 93%. The final accuracy of our proposed Threat Detection Model (TDM) is 82.65%.

Our food security is built on the foundation of soil. Farmers would be unable to feed us with fiber, food, and fuel if the soils were not healthy. Accurately predicting the type of soil helps in planning the usage of the soil and thus increasing productivity. This research employs state-of-the-art Visual Transformers and also compares performance with different models such as SVM, Alexnet, Resnet, and CNN. Furthermore, this study also focuses on differentiating different Visual Transformers architectures. For the classification of soil type, the dataset consists of 4 different types of soil samples such as alluvial, red, black, and clay. The Visual Transformer model outperforms other models in terms of both test and train accuracies by attaining 98.13% on training and 93.62% while testing. The performance of the Visual Transformer exceeds the performance of other models by at least 2%. Hence, the novel Visual Transformers can be used for Computer Vision tasks including Soil Classification.

Classifying Electroencephalogram(EEG) signals helps in understanding Brain-Computer Interface (BCI). EEG signals are vital in studying how the human mind functions. In this paper, we have used an Arithmetic Calculation dataset consisting of Before Calculation Signals (BCS) and During Calculation Signals (DCS). The dataset consisted of 36 participants. In order to understand the functioning of neurons in the brain, we classified BCS vs DCS. For this classification, we extracted various features such as Mutual Information (MI), Phase Locking Value (PLV), and Entropy namely Permutation entropy, Spectral entropy, Singular value decomposition entropy, Approximate entropy, Sample entropy. The classification of these features was done using RNN-based classifiers such as LSTM, BLSTM, ConvLSTM, and CNN-LSTM. The model achieved an accuracy of 99.72% when entropy was used as a feature and ConvLSTM as a classifier.
