Pathirana, Hiruni Amanda
Diabetic patient population is rising against to the world population. All the diabetic patients&#13;
are at a risk of developing Diabetic Retinopathy. As author highlights along in this research&#13;
this circumstance could damage the retina, back of the eye and might lead to complete&#13;
blindness. Therefore, early detection of this health matter and the treatments are required to&#13;
avoid this serious complication.&#13;
Therefore, author has proposed a screening system in order to identify the earliest Diabetic&#13;
Retinopathy pathology Microaneurysm, during Non-Proliferative Retinopathy which is known&#13;
as the first stage of Diabetic Retinopathy. The proposed system utilized an image processing&#13;
approach to preprocess image, Segment and extract features which are appropriate for detection&#13;
of Microaneurysm regions. Furthermore, machine learning approach will be use to classify the&#13;
selected regions. Number of feature vectors were identified for the classification. a novel&#13;
method of segmentation vessels using thresholding approach was attempted.

<summary type="text">Collision Detection Algorithm Improvement
Perera, Jason Archana
Collision detection is the process of identifying if two or more objects have made contact with&#13;
each other. It is a technology that has applications in the fields of gaming, robotics and even&#13;
medical science. A performance gap has emerged due to rapid developments in the related field of graphic rendering. This gap has been made apparent through reduced efficiency and/or accuracy in existing collision detection algorithms. This project aims to modify the GJK algorithm in order to improve its performance in terms of efficiency, as per the requirements gathered from stakeholders.&#13;
The resultant algorithm shows minor improvements in efficiency, while experiencing a slightly&#13;
higher drop in accuracy. While achieving the goal of the research, there is further scope in improving the algorithm’s ability to handle non-convex objects.

Jayakody, J. A. Danura Ishara
When it comes to prediction, it's always a complicated and challenging process.&#13;
Sometimes it might not helpful to use traditional methods of prediction with your&#13;
requirement. Stock market prediction has been an interesting area due to its&#13;
impotency. This report is containing the information based on a research conduct in&#13;
stock market prediction and suggesting an alternative hybrid system did by using&#13;
KNN (K Nearest Neighbor) algorithm (unsupervised) and a supervised algorithm&#13;
which is rich with a higher accuracy level. The system is getting an accuracy of 65%&#13;
to 75% when using only the KNN algorithm and to improve the accuracy of the system&#13;
another algorithm has been written and sorting the results coming from the 1st&#13;
algorithm. When this step was done the accuracy was climb up to 85% to 90% and&#13;
its different from symbol to symbol. However, the overall accuracy is in between 80%&#13;
to 90%. All the statistics and graphs are included in the report under the relevant&#13;
chapters.&#13;
The proposed system has been evaluated and tested and all the test results, design,&#13;
implementation and documentations are expressed in an efficient manner.

<summary type="text">“CropRec” - Crop Recommendation System
Hisham, Shadir
One of Sri Lanka’s biggest livelihoods and a major economic contributor is agriculture.&#13;
Rich with a tropical atmosphere, Sri Lanka is an ideal island to contribute our agricultural&#13;
resources to a global scale. With all of these factors in mind, Sri Lanka still has a threat to food&#13;
security on major crops like Rice. Since the past few years, predicting weather for cultivation&#13;
for planning has been challenging due to changes of weather patterns as effects of global&#13;
warming.&#13;
Although there has considerable amount of research in the domain of agriculture and&#13;
weather prediction, in Sri Lanka those two haven’t been merged together effectively to provide&#13;
predictions to the attached stakeholders like farmers. The already available literature is only&#13;
serving a specific scenario.&#13;
CropRec is a system that uses large amounts of weather data over 15 years to find a&#13;
pattern and predict the future weather patterns. The outcome of this process is taken to&#13;
recommend a suitable crop. This recommendation is sent through a SMS alert to the farmer&#13;
within a time period helping them to plan their cultivation based on the changing weather&#13;
patterns.&#13;
The system was implemented and tested using qualitative and quantitative approaches,&#13;
evaluation was done on the overall system and completed effectively.
