FireLite: Leveraging Transfer Learning for Efficient Fire Detection in Resource-Constrained EnvironmentsMahamudul Hasan, Md Maruf Al Hossain Prince, Mohammad Samar Ansari et al.
Fire hazards are extremely dangerous, particularly in sectors such as the transportation industry, where political unrest increases the likelihood of their occurrence. By employing IP cameras to facilitate the setup of fire detection systems on transport vehicles, losses from fire events may be prevented proactively. However, the development of lightweight fire detection models is required due to the computational constraints of the embedded systems within these cameras. We introduce FireLite, a low-parameter convolutional neural network (CNN) designed for quick fire detection in contexts with limited resources, in response to this difficulty. With an accuracy of 98.77\%, our model -- which has just 34,978 trainable parameters achieves remarkable performance numbers. It also shows a validation loss of 8.74 and peaks at 98.77 for precision, recall, and F1-score measures. Because of its precision and efficiency, FireLite is a promising solution for fire detection in resource-constrained environments.

Advancing Cucumber Disease Detection in Agriculture through Machine Vision and Drone TechnologySyada Tasfia Rahman, Nishat Vasker, Amir Khabbab Ahammed et al.
This study uses machine vision and drone technologies to propose a unique method for the diagnosis of cucumber disease in agriculture. The backbone of this research is a painstakingly curated dataset of hyperspectral photographs acquired under genuine field conditions. Unlike earlier datasets, this study included a wide variety of illness types, allowing for precise early-stage detection. The model achieves an excellent 87.5\% accuracy in distinguishing eight unique cucumber illnesses after considerable data augmentation. The incorporation of drone technology for high-resolution images improves disease evaluation. This development has enormous potential for improving crop management, lowering labor costs, and increasing agricultural productivity. This research, which automates disease detection, represents a significant step toward a more efficient and sustainable agricultural future.

Two-stage Cascaded Classifier for Purchase PredictionSheikh Muhammad Sarwar, Mahamudul Hasan, Dmitry I. Ignatov
In this paper we describe our machine learning solution for the RecSys Challenge, 2015. We have proposed a time efficient two-stage cascaded classifier for the prediction of buy sessions and purchased items within such sessions. Based on the model, several interesting features found, and formation of our own test bed, we have achieved a reasonable score. Usage of Random Forests helps us to cope with the effect of the multiplicity of good models depending on varying subsets of features in the purchased items prediction and, in its turn, boosting is used as a suitable technique to overcome severe class imbalance of the buy-session prediction.
