FMDNet: An Efficient System for Face Mask Detection Based on Lightweight Model during COVID-19 Pandemic in Public Areas

Abstract

A new artificial intelligence-based approach is proposed by developing a deep learning (DL) model for identifying the people who violate the face mask protocol in public places. To achieve this goal, a private dataset was created, including different face images with and without masks. The proposed model was trained to detect face masks from real-time surveillance videos. The proposed face mask detection (FMDNet) model achieved a promising detection of 99.0% in terms of accuracy for identifying violations (no face mask) in public places. The model presented a better detection capability compared to other recent DL models such as FSA-Net, MobileNet V2, and ResNet by 24.03%, 5.0%, and 24.10%, respectively. Meanwhile, the model is lightweight and had a confidence score of 99.0% in a resource-constrained environment. The model can perform the detection task in real-time environments at 41.72 frames per second (FPS). Thus, the developed model can be applicable and useful for governments to maintain the rules of the SOP protocol.

Efficacy and classification of Sesamum indicum linn seeds with Rosa damascena mill oil in uncomplicated pelvic inflammatory disease using machine learning

“…Additionally, we used the AB, NB, and DT machine-learning classifiers with cross-validation (CV) 5-fold, 10-fold, and leave-one-out models. The mathematical expression for the precision, F1, accuracy, recall, and specificity ( Ullah et al, 2022b ; 2022a ; Sultana et al, 2022a ; Ayalew et al, 2022 ; Nawabi et al, 2022 ; Said et al, 2022 ; Benifa et al, 2023 ; Pal et al, 2023 ; Qadri et al, 2023 ) are shown in Equations 8 - 12 below: …”

Dynamics analysis and optimal control study of uncertain information dissemination model triggered after major emergencies

“…Tan [1], Yao [2], Gao [3], and Zhang [4] conducted studies from the perspective of emergency management after the occurrence of a major emergency. Other scholars have investigated the impact of major emergencies, such as Ukwuoma [5], Benifa [6], Asif [7], and Fazmiya [8], who analyzed the physical effects of major emergencies on humans from a medical perspective, using COVID-19 as an example. Mo et al [9] argued that major emergencies have both an emotional as impact as well as a huge economic impact.…”

Efficacy of a vaginal suppository formulation prepared with Acacia arabica (Lam.) Willd. gum and Cinnamomum camphora (L.) J. Presl. in heavy menstrual bleeding analyzed using a machine learning technique

“…This study intended to compare the efficacy of the formulation prepared with acacia gum ( Gond Babul ) and camphor ( Kafoor ) vaginal suppository with tranexamic acid on the pictorial blood loss assessment score (PBLAC), health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and hemoglobin levels in human participants with HMB. The research question was “whether acacia gum and camphor vaginal suppositories would be efficacious to reduce HMB and, thereby, improve the participant’s HRQoL.” Beyond conventional methods, artificial intelligence (AI) ( Benifa et al, 2023 ), particularly machine learning models, was utilized to classify experimental and standard groups. Additionally, this study used experimental data related to heavy menstrual bleeding for the classification of the vaginal suppository group (SG) as an experimental group and tranexamic group (TG) as a standard control group.…”
