COVID was initially detected in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, People's Republic of China, in late 2019, as reported by researchers. Subsequently, it rapidly disseminated to numerous nations at the beginning of 2020, ultimately manifested as a pandemic with worldwide prevalence. Regarded as one of the most severe pandemics in documented human history, this outbreak resulted in deaths and infection over a quite millions of individuals globally. Due to its airborne nature, the coronavirus can be transmitted through actions such as coughing, sneezing, talking, and similar activities. Enclosed spaces lacking sufficient airflow are more likely to facilitate the spread of air borne diseases. Wearing a face mask that can provide protection against airborne pollutants, considered as Standard Operation Procedures (SOPS) for COVID-19. It is crucial to monitor the implementation of preventive measures both within and outside the building or workplace in order to prevent the transmission of COVID-19. The main objective of this project is to develop a face mask and social distance detector. You Only Learn One Representation (YOLOR) was implemented as a most advanced end-to-end target identification approach to develop the proposed system. An online available facemask dataset was utilized. The developed system can track individuals wearing masks in real time and can also identify and highlight persons with a rectangular box if their social distance is violated. This proposed interactive framework enables constant monitoring both internally and externally, thereby enhancing the capacity to identify offenders and ensure the safety of all individuals involved.
In order to meet the guidance, publicity and commercial functions, various types of billboards have become important permanent facilities in the airport terminal, which are distributed all over the terminal. The advertising materials inside billboards have certain fire hazards, and there is a lack of research on the fire risk of advertising materials at present. Therefore, it is necessary to study the fire risk of advertising materials in airport terminal. Taking PVC board, a commonly used advertising material, as the research object, Pyrosim was used to model and analyze its fire, and the characteristics of fire spread, smoke flow, and distribution of combustion products such as CO and CO2 in the terminal building were obtained. This study explores the fire combustion characteristics of advertising materials in civil airport terminals, providing a basis for fire prevention management in civil airport terminals.
Financial markets have adopted measures aiming at strengthening insurance industry and digital financial assets. Efforts have also been made to strengthen the financial sector and expand lending opportunities in times of economic turmoil. The role of the central banks as a mega-regulator have played a crucial role in implementing coordinated policies and improving the stability of the financial sector. This review paper analyses 100 papers and proposes recommendations for policy makers. The results confirm the financial sector has shown positive performance indicators, and the capital market has become increasingly important along with non-credit financial institutions. However, the growing number of first-time investors in the capital market requires a renewed focus on consumer protection and financial literacy. In addition, the development of digital technologies has changed the landscape of financial services, forcing financial institutions to fight for continued customer loyalty.
The major objective of this research paper is to assess the management effectiveness of Sheikh Badin National Park District Dera Ismail Khan Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan with respect to tourist’s satisfaction. A sample size of 389 respondents (local community, wildlife staff, tourists) were selected through simple random sampling to conclude respondents’ attitude towards phenomenon investigated through three-level Likert scale as a measurement tool. Association between a dependent variable (management effectiveness) was assessed on the independent variables (tourist satisfaction) through a chi-square test. Association of management effectiveness was highly significant with tourists satisfaction from promos of park (p = 0.000), access to information (p = 0.000), roads network (p = 0.000), residential facilities (p = 0.000), trained guides (p = 0.000), safety from crimes and criminals (p = 0.000), provision of health and security services (p = 0.000), overall satisfaction of tourists (p = 0.000), recommendation of SBNP to other tourists (p = 0.000) and revisit intentions of tourists (p = 0.000). Improvement in security measures, better advertisement and improvement in park infrastructure were major recommendations considering the study.
Remote sensing technologies have revolutionized forestry analysis by providing valuable information about forest ecosystems on a large scale. This review article explores the latest advancements in remote sensing tools that leverage optical, thermal, RADAR, and LiDAR data, along with state-of-the-art methods of data processing and analysis. We investigate how these tools, combined with artificial intelligence (AI) techniques and cloud-computing facilities, enhance the analytical outreach and offer new insights in the fields of remote sensing and forestry disciplines. The article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of these advancements, discuss their potential applications, and highlight the challenges and future directions. Through this examination, we demonstrate the immense potential of integrating remote sensing and AI to revolutionize forest management and conservation practices.
