Sri Lanka faces drinking water related issues often due to many reasons like weather changes, floods, droughts, and tsunamis, affecting the drinking water availability. In such instances, people find difficult to gather information regarding consumable drinking water availability. In order to facilitate the meeting of commercial water sellers and customers and to engage the general public and social services in addressing the drinking water problem, this study is focused on building both web and mobile applications. The web application was implemented with a selected set of functionalities such as social login, social sharing, geocoding, reverse geocoding, viewing, and filtering posts using Angular 6, *** web framework, and Leaflet. The mobile application was developed to direct the customers to the water availability location with a shortest path using the Dijkstra's algorithm. Case evaluation was conducted with the Rotaract Club members in Badulla and thinking aloud method was used to pick up the user's ideas while interacting with the system. It can be concluded that the created web and mobile applications would offer the public a clever way to draw attention to an issue with water availability, and the commercial water service providers are given a venue to market their services and locate potential customers.

Machine learning is an extremely efficient technique for solving complex problems without the use of traditional programming but rather enabling machines to learn from an input of data and train them to cope with various problems. The rapid growth in the number of active mobile devices, mobile applications and services dictates an efficient utilization of mobile and wireless networking infrastructure. Communication networks need to evolve and valorize machine learning methods in order to process large volumes of data without introducing excessive time delay in these computations. Upcoming 5G systems are expected to be the first network infrastructure to support exploding mobile traffic volumes and machine learning techniques can be used in order to help manage the rise in data volumes. We present a mechanism for resource allocation in mobile and wireless networks, that effectively utilizes machine learning techniques.

Objective — To (1) identify health-related terms used on social media posts that do not precisely match the health-related meaning of terms in a biomedical dictionary, (2) decide which terms need to be removed in order to improve the quality of the dictionary in the scope of biomedical text mining tasks, (3) evaluate the effect of removing imprecise terms on such tasks, and (4) discuss how human-centered annotation complements automated annotation in social media mining for biomedical purposes. Materials and Methods — We used a dictionary built from biomedical terminology extracted from various sources such as DrugBank, MedDRA, MedlinePlus, TCMGeneDIT, to tag more than 8 million Instagram posts by users who have mentioned an epilepsy-relevant drug at least once, between 2010 and early 2016. A random sample of 1,771 posts with 2,947 term matches was evaluated by human annotators to identify false-positives. Frequent terms with a high false-positive rate were removed from the dictionary. To study the effect of removing those terms, we constructed knowledge networks using the refined and the original dictionaries and performed an eigenvector-centrality analysis on both networks. OpenAI’s GPT series models were compared against human annotation. Results — Analysis of the estimated false-positive rates of the annotated terms revealed 8 ambiguous terms (plus synonyms) used in Instagram posts, which were removed from the original dictionary. We show that the refined dictionary thus produced leads to a significantly different rank of important terms, as measured by their eigenvector-centrality of the knowledge networks. Furthermore, the most important terms obtained after refinement are of greater medical relevance. In addition, we show that OpenAI’s GPT series models fare worse than human annotators in this task. Discussion — Dictionaries built from traditional clinical terminology are not tailored for social media language and can bias results when used in biomedical infe

In recent years, considerable progress has been made in genomics and proteomics, resulting in much biological data. To draw inferences from this data, advanced computer analysis techniques are required. Bioinformatics is crucial to interpreting and applying this data in any endeavor. As huge amounts of genomic, proteomic, and other data begin to be collected and integrated, the relevance of this emerging area of study will increase. The detection of variation in Next Generation Sequencing is now a standard and indispensable technique in all areas of the biological sciences. Life-threatening conditions like cancer and other diseases may be caused by DNA mutation sequences (genetic mutations). Thus, it’s important to discover these mutations early, classify them, and understand their effects on the DNA sequence. Bioinformatics is mostly concerned with the changes to DNA that will occur in the cells of the next generation. The primary goal of this research is to develop a sophisticated and comprehensive approach for classifying the mutation type and categorizing the influence of known disease-causing genetic variations on an individual’s risk of disease using a multi-label multi-class deep learning classification technique. A deep neural network was trained using the TP53 dataset (The TP53 gene is a tumor suppressor gene on chromosome 17) to discover the mutation type and its impact in a unified model, as described. To evaluate the performance of the suggested method, the accuracy, recall, precision, and F1 score evaluation scales were utilized. and the results demonstrate that it can accurately determine the mutation type and its effects with an accuracy of 97.58%, Precision 98%, Recall 95%, and F1 score 96%.

The involvement of a multitude of parameters adds to the complexity of modeling a flood. However, floods are among the most destructive of natural disasters and therefore, flood forecasting is one of the key priorities of hydrology. Flood forecasting goes a long way to minimize the loss of lives as well as economic losses. Furthermore, proper modeling of floods can contribute immensely towards future risk reduction and the introduction of necessary policies. At present, the application of machine learning in river and flood analysis has dramatically increased among hydrologists. In this research, we propose a location (District) independent flood prediction model (Random Forest-RF) of commercially significant rivers in Bangladesh. The data Imbalance problem is solved by synthetic minority oversampling of numerical and categorical (SMOTENC) data augmentation techniques. Our results show that the proposed framework outperforms the previously reported results by up to 9%. To the best of our knowledge, our proposed flood prediction framework achieved the best performance in terms of all evaluation matrices on the specific dataset.
