The devastating effects of climate change and human activity on the planet’s biodiversity have led to a mass extinction event, which is when species vanish much faster than they are replaced.
This is defined as about 75 percent of the world’s species being lost in a short period of geological time—less
than 2.8 million years [1]. The Eden Portland...
Mobile devices are ubiquitous for users in everyday life, often with individuals throughout their daily routine. The widespread use of mobile devices allows novel technologies to be designed to improve personal security and safety. The research presented in this paper provides additional functionality through pervasive sensors on mobile devices, ma...
Our work focuses on using tinyML for detecting
violent language on edge devices, such as mobile
phones and wearables, in the context of preventing
domestic violence. Our multimodal algorithm uses
natural language processing (NLP) and audio
processing to detect violent conversation from short
audio-text segments.
The algorithm is converted to a tiny...
Mobile devices are nearly ubiquitous for users in everyday life, often being
with individuals throughout their daily routine, including use during work, social, and home activities. The widespread use of mobile devices allows novel
technologies to be designed to improve personal security and safety. Existing
solutions in this area include applicati...
Natural Language Processing has recently made understanding human interaction easier, leading to improved sentimental analysis and behaviour prediction. However, the choice of words and vocal cues in conversations presents an underexplored rich source of natural language data for personal safety and crime prevention. When accompanied by audio analy...
Emerging technological innovations have been developed in recent years to prevent crime and enhance public safety. This paper evaluates the recent advances in ubiquitous sensing and pervasive computing to ultimately propose a multimodal crime prevention tool that incorporates several technologies into a single wearable device. The crime prevention...
Maintaining social distancing in public spaces plays a pivotal role in decreasing COVID-19 contagion and viral spread. COVID-19 has required many countries around the world to close work places, schools and public spaces. This has prompted policy makers, venue managers and local authorities to investigate practical mitigation strategies using techn...

Criminal activity is a prevalent issue in contemporary culture and society, with most nations facing unacceptable levels of crime. Technological innovation has been one of the main driving forces leading to the continuous improvement of crime control and crime prevention strategies (e.g. GPS tracking and tagging, video surveillance, etc.). Given th...

The novel coronavirus, designated by the World Health Organization as COVID-19 has required many countries around the world to close work spaces, schools and public venues. This has required policy makers and venue managers to investigate practical mitiga-tion strategies using technology to exit the lockdown safely and enable the reopening of publi...
