The Indian agricultural sector being in a constant phase of upgradation, has been on the road to modernization for the last couple of years. The fundamental source of livelihood for over 70 percent of the population living in rural parts of the country is still agriculture. The average Indian farmer, although has access to raw and trend data pertaining to crop prices, yield and demand from Indian government and private websites, still struggles to make the right choices. They are constantly faced with the dilemma of choosing the right crop to address market demand and fetch them a decent profit. Since the process of shortlisting crops amongst the many suitable ones isn't completely scientific and usually dictated by area tradition, this project has aimed to address that issue by forecasting the price of those crops and uses that to create an optimal portfolio that the farmers can obtain to arrive at a data-driven decision for crop selection with optimal estimated ROI., Comment: 14 pages

COVID-19, also known as Novel Coronavirus Disease, is a highly contagious disease that first surfaced in China in late 2019. SARS-CoV-2 is a coronavirus that belongs to the vast family of coronaviruses that causes this disease. The sickness originally appeared in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and quickly spread to over 213 nations, becoming a global pandemic. Fever, dry cough, and tiredness are the most typical COVID-19 symptoms. Aches, pains, and difficulty breathing are some of the other symptoms that patients may face. The majority of these symptoms are indicators of respiratory infections and lung abnormalities, which radiologists can identify. Chest x-rays of COVID-19 patients seem similar, with patchy and hazy lungs rather than clear and healthy lungs. On x-rays, however, pneumonia and other chronic lung disorders can resemble COVID-19. Trained radiologists must be able to distinguish between COVID-19 and an illness that is less contagious. Our AI algorithm seeks to give doctors a quantitative estimate of the risk of deterioration. So that patients at high risk of deterioration can be triaged and treated efficiently. The method could be particularly useful in pandemic hotspots when screening upon admission is important for allocating limited resources like hospital beds.

Businesses need content. In various forms and formats and for varied purposes. In fact, the content marketing industry is set to be worth $412.88 billion by the end of 2021. However, according to the Content Marketing Institute, creating engaging content is the #1 challenge that marketers face today. We under-stand that producing great content requires great writers who understand the business and can weave their message into reader (and search engine) friendly content. In this project, the team has attempted to bridge the gap between writers and projects by using AI and ML tools. We used NLP techniques to analyze thou-sands of publicly available business articles (corpora) to extract various defining factors for each writing sample. Through this project we aim to automate the highly time-consuming, and often biased task of manually shortlisting the most suitable writer for a given content writing requirement. We believe that a tool like this will have far reaching positive implications for both parties - businesses looking for suitable talent for niche writing jobs as well as experienced writers and Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) wanting to lend their services to content marketing projects. The business gets the content they need, the content writer/ SME gets a chance to leverage his or her talent, while the reader gets authentic content that adds real value.

The application of Deep Learning and Natural Language based ChatBots are growing rapidly in recent years. They are used in many fields like customer support, reservation system and as personal assistant. The Enterprises are using such ChatBots to serve their customers in a better and efficient manner. Even after such technological advancement, the expert advice does not reach the farmers on timely manner. The farmers are still largely dependent on their peers knowledge in solving the problems they face in their field. These technologies have not been effectively used to give the required information to farmers on timely manner. This project aims to implement a closed domain ChatBot for the field of Agriculture Farmers Assistant. Farmers can have conversation with the Chatbot and get the expert advice in their field. Farmers Assistant is based on RASA Open Source Framework. The Chatbot identifies the intent and entity from user utterances and retrieve the remedy from the database and share it with the user. We tested the Bot with existing data and it showed promising results.

Reliance, HDFC Bank, TCS and SBI were predicted using the aforementioned two models. The results were evaluated using RMSE metric.

The Indian Agricultural sector generates huge employment accounting for over 54% of countrys workforce. Its overall stand in GDP is close to 14%. However, this sector has been plagued by knowledge and infrastructure deficit, especially in the rural sectors. Like other sectors, the Indian Agricultural sector has seen rapid digitization with use of technology and Kisan Call Center (KCC) is one such example. It is a Government of India initiative launched on 21st January 2004 which is a synthesis of two hitherto separate sectors the Information Technology and Agriculture sector. However, studies have shown to have constrains to KCC beneficiaries, especially in light of network congestion and incomplete knowledge of the call center representatives. With the advent of new technologies, like first-generation SMS based and next-generation social media tools like WhatsApp, farmers in India are digitally more connected to the agricultural information services. Previous studies have shown that the KCC dataset can be used as a viable alternative for Chat-bot. We will base our study with the available KCC dataset to build an NLP model by getting the semantic similarity of the queries made by farmers in the past and use it to automatically answer future queries. We will attempt to make a WhatsApp based chat-bot to easily communicate with farmers using RASA as a tool.

With the advancement in AI, deep learning techniques are widely used to design robust classification models in several areas such as medical diagnosis tasks in which it achieves good performance. In this paper, we have proposed the CNN model (Convolutional Neural Network) for the classification of Chest X-ray images for Radiological Society of North America Pneumonia (RSNA) datasets. The study also tries to achieve the same RSNA benchmark results using the limited computational resources by trying out various approaches to the methodologies that have been implemented in recent years. The proposed method is based on a non-complex CNN and the use of transfer learning algorithms like Xception, InceptionV3/V4, EfficientNetB7. Along with this, the study also tries to achieve the same RSNA benchmark results using the limited computational resources by trying out various approaches to the methodologies that have been implemented in recent years. The RSNA benchmark MAP score is 0.25, but using the Mask RCNN model on a stratified sample of 3017 along with image augmentation gave a MAP score of 0.15. Meanwhile, the YoloV3 without any hyperparameter tuning gave the MAP score of 0.32 but still, the loss keeps decreasing. Running the model for a greater number of iterations can give better results.

With over 50 million car sales annually and over 1.3 million deaths every year due to motor accidents we have chosen this space. India accounts for 11 per cent of global death in road accidents. Drivers are held responsible for 78% of accidents. Road safety problems in developing countries is a major concern and human behavior is ascribed as one of the main causes and accelerators of road safety problems. Driver distraction has been identified as the main reason for accidents. Distractions can be caused due to reasons such as mobile usage, drinking, operating instruments, facial makeup, social interaction. For the scope of this project, we will focus on building a highly efficient ML model to classify different driver distractions at runtime using computer vision. We would also analyze the overall speed and scalability of the model in order to be able to set it up on an edge device. We use CNN, VGG-16, RestNet50 and ensemble of CNN to predict the classes.

The purpose of this work is, to provide a YOLOv5 deep learning-based social distance monitoring framework using an overhead view perspective. In addition, we have developed a custom defined model YOLOv5 modified CSP (Cross Stage Partial Network) and assessed the performance on COCO and Visdrone dataset with and without transfer learning. Our findings show that the developed model successfully identifies the individual who violates the social distances. The accuracy of 81.7% for the modified bottleneck CSP without transfer learning is observed on COCO dataset after training the model for 300 epochs whereas for the same epochs, the default YOLOv5 model is attaining 80.1% accuracy with transfer learning. This shows an improvement in accuracy by our modified bottleneck CSP model. For the Visdrone dataset, we are able to achieve an accuracy of upto 56.5% for certain classes and especially an accuracy of 40% for people and pedestrians with transfer learning using the default YOLOv5s model for 30 epochs. While the modified bottleneck CSP is able to perform slightly better than the default model with an accuracy score of upto 58.1% for certain classes and an accuracy of ~40.4% for people and pedestrians.

The new alternative is to use deep learning to inpaint any image by utilizing image classification and computer vision techniques. In general, image inpainting is a task of recreating or reconstructing any broken image which could be a photograph or oil/acrylic painting. With the advancement in the field of Artificial Intelligence, this topic has become popular among AI enthusiasts. With our approach, we propose an initial end-to-end pipeline for inpainting images using a complete Machine Learning approach instead of a conventional application-based approach. We first use the YOLO model to automatically identify and localize the object we wish to remove from the image. Using the result obtained from the model we can generate a mask for the same. After this, we provide the masked image and original image to the GAN model which uses the Contextual Attention method to fill in the region. It consists of two generator networks and two discriminator networks and is also called a coarse-to-fine network structure. The two generators use fully convolutional networks while the global discriminator gets hold of the entire image as input while the local discriminator gets the grip of the filled region as input. The contextual Attention mechanism is proposed to effectively borrow the neighbor information from distant spatial locations for reconstructing the missing pixels. The third part of our implementation uses SRGAN to resolve the inpainted image back to its original size. Our work is inspired by the paper Free-Form Image Inpainting with Gated Convolution and Generative Image Inpainting with Contextual Attention.

India is the second largest producer of fruits and vegetables in the world, and one of the largest consumers of fruits like Banana, Papaya and Mangoes through retail and ecommerce giants like BigBasket, Grofers and Amazon Fresh. However, adoption of technology in supply chain and retail stores is still low and there is a great potential to adopt computer-vision based technology for identification and classification of fruits. We have chosen banana fruit to build a computer vision based model to carry out the following three use-cases (a) Identify Banana from a given image (b) Determine sub-family or variety of Banana (c) Determine the quality of Banana. Successful execution of these use-cases using computer-vision model would greatly help with overall inventory management automation, quality control, quick and efficient weighing and billing which all are manual labor intensive currently. In this work, we suggest a machine learning pipeline that combines the ideas of CNNs, transfer learning, and data augmentation towards improving Banana fruit sub family and quality image classification. We have built a basic CNN and then went on to tune a MobileNet Banana classification model using a combination of self-curated and publicly-available dataset of 3064 images. The results show an overall 93.4% and 100% accuracy for sub-family/variety and for quality test classifications respectively.

The research and data science community has been fascinated with the development of automatic systems for the detection of key events in a video. Special attention in this field is given to sports video analytics which could help in identifying key events during a match and help in preparing a strategy for the games going forward. For this paper, we have chosen Football (soccer) as a sport where we would want to create highlights for a given match video, through a computer vision model that aims to identify important events in a Soccer match to create highlights of the match. We built the models based on Faster RCNN and YoloV5 architectures and noticed that for the amount of data we used for training Faster RCNN did better than YoloV5 in detecting the events in the match though it was much slower. Within Faster RCNN using ResNet50 as a base model gave a better class accuracy of 95.5% as compared to 92% with VGG16 as base model completely outperforming YoloV5 for our training dataset. We tested with an original video of size 23 minutes and our model could reduce it to 4:50 minutes of highlights capturing almost all important events in the match.

The impact of Music on the mood or emotion of the listener is a well-researched area in human psychology and behavioral science. In Indian classical music, ragas are the melodic structure that defines the various styles and forms of the music. Each raga has been found to evoke a specific emotion in the listener. With the advent of advanced capabilities of audio signal processing and the application of machine learning, the demand for intelligent music classifiers and recommenders has received increased attention, especially in the 'Music as a service' cloud applications. This paper explores a novel framework to leverage the raga-rasa association in Indian classical Music to build an intelligent classifier and its application in music recommendation system based on user's current mood and the mood they aspire to be in.

This project attempts to build a Question- Answering system in the News Domain, where Passages will be News articles, and anyone can ask a Question against it. We have built a span-based model using an Attention mechanism, where the model predicts the answer to a question as to the position of the start and end tokens in a paragraph. For training our model, we have used the Stanford Question and Answer (SQuAD 2.0) dataset[1]. To do well on SQuAD 2.0, systems must not only answer questions when possible but also determine when no answer is supported by the paragraph and abstain from answering. Our model architecture comprises three layers- Embedding Layer, RNN Layer, and the Attention Layer. For the Embedding layer, we used GloVe and the Universal Sentence Encoder. For the RNN Layer, we built variations of the RNN Layer including bi-LSTM and Stacked LSTM and we built an Attention Layer using a Context to Question Attention and also improvised on the innovative Bidirectional Attention Layer. Our best performing model which uses GloVe Embedding combined with Bi-LSTM and Context to Question Attention achieved an F1 Score and EM of 33.095 and 33.094 respectively. We also leveraged transfer learning and built a Transformer based model using BERT. The BERT-based model achieved an F1 Score and EM of 57.513 and 49.769 respectively. We concluded that the BERT model is superior in all aspects of answering various types of questions.
