In this work a methodology to estimate the effect of elevated temperature on a Line Start Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (LSPMSM) has been proposed. A simulated model of LSPMSM has been developed for Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The losses obtained from FEA were fed to a Lumped Parameter Thermal Network (LPTN) developed for LSPMSM in the LTSpice environment. The extent of demagnetisation was estimated and the FEA was conducted to identify the change in motor performance. The thermal modeling of the motor has been developed to evaluate the increase in temperature at different parts of LSPMSM under three different load conditions and even after switching off the motor. The results so obtained were validated on a physical setup. The results were analysed to ascertain the performance of the permanent magnets in LSPMSM.

Potholes present a substantial hazard to both road safety and the structural integrity of vehicles. This paper introduces a novel approach to pothole detection leveraging YOLOv8, an object detection algorithm, and TensorFlow.js. The proposed system aims to detect potholes accurately and swiftly by analysing live video feeds. The trained model exhibits promising performance metrics in pothole detection, with the bounding box precision at 0.822 and the mean Average Precision (mAP) value of 0.847, highlighting the model`s robustness in accurately localizing potholes. The proposed pothole detection system presents a promising solution for proactive road maintenance and safety enhancement. Its efficiency in real-time detection, combined with the adaptability of TensorFlow.js, holds the potential for widespread implementation, contributing to mitigating road hazards and infrastructure maintenance. The use of Tensorflow.js allows JavaScript developers to work with YOLOv8 reducing the dependency on Python for this purpose. The Pothole Detection and Reporting System with YOLOv8 and Tensorflow.js provides quite promising results.

This research explores the implementation of a state-of-the-art attendance system utilizing face recognition technology with a focus on Haar Cascade and Local Binary Pattern Histogram (LBPH) algorithms. The primary objective of this system is to revolutionize traditional attendance management methodologies by incorporating computer vision techniques. The Haar Cascade algorithm is employed for precise face detection, ensuring accurate identification of facial features, while the LBPH algorithm enhances facial recognition robustness. The paper elucidates the architectural framework of the proposed system, delineates the algorithmic workflow, and presents empirical results demonstrating the efficacy of the implemented solution. By integrating these advanced algorithms, the developed attendance system not only automates the attendance tracking process but also provides a secure and efficient mechanism for organizations to manage attendance records in a contemporary and technologically sophisticated manner.

The paper involves the development of a rock- paper-scissors game using computer vision techniques, specifically gesture recognition. The game aims to provide an engaging and interactive user experience by allowing players to use hand gestures to play the game against a computer opponent. The user interface was designed for optimal user experience, incorporating visual feedback to effectively engage the player. The accuracy of gesture recognition was evaluated using quantitative metrics, measuring the precision of identifying rock, paper, and scissor gestures. The paper serves as an educational tool to demonstrate the practical applications of computer vision in gaming scenarios, potentially inspiring interest in STEM fields. It sets the foundation for future advancements in computer vision applications, with potential enhancements including multi- player functionality, improved gesture recognition using deep learning models, and integration into augmented or virtual reality environments. While the rock-paper-scissors game using OpenCV and CV Zone has several merits, there are also a few demerits to consider, indicating areas for further improvement. Overall, the paper contributes to the practical understanding of gesture recognition and image processing within the context of an interactive gaming application.

In today’s digital era, face recognition systems have emerged as a vital component across various sectors. As one of the most commonly used biometric technologies, face recognition offers a multitude of advantages including security, authentication, and identification. Despite its lower accuracy compared to iris recognition and fingerprint recognition, face recognition continues to gain traction due to its contactless and non-invasive nature. Moreover, it can be effectively utilized for attendance marking in educational institutions and workplaces, addressing the shortcomings of traditional manual methods such as consumption and the risk of proxy attendance. This paper proposes a class attendance system based on face recognition, aiming to streamline the attendance process and eliminate its associated challenges. The system encompasses four key phases: database creation, face detection, face recognition, and attendance updation. The database is created by capturing images of students in the classroom. Face detection and recognition are performed using the Haar-Cascade classifier and Local Binary Pattern Histogram algorithm, respectively. Faces are detected and recognized in real time using live streaming videos. At the end of each session, the attendance is automatically sent via email to the respective faculty.
