  • Automating incident categorization in a support request system 
    Cooray, TMTM; Ariyaratne, MKA; Perera, MDR [Conference-Extended-Abstract]
    With the expansion of the role of IT, organizations tend to maintain a support request system/ Issue Tracking System (ITS) to handle issues. ITSs are designed to streamline the process of customer support and keep a track ...
  • Classification of breast cancer tumors using feature selection and CNN 
    Anparasy, S [Conference-Extended-Abstract]
    Breast cancer is one of the most dangerous diseases in the world and almost two million new cases are diagnosed every year. It starts from the breasts tissue and then spreads to other parts of the body. Early detection of ...
  • Decision tree application for model built-up land fragmentation in urban areas 
    Ranaweera, N; Jayasinghe, A; Abenayake, C [Conference-Extended-Abstract]
    Land fragmentation can define as the “situation where one area/unit is composed of a large number of parcels that are too small for their rational utilization” [5]. Land fragmentation affects sustainable development through ...
  • Design and development of a novel fixturing solution for handling complex shaped components 
    Dharmathilaka, SPIE; Devasurendra, SN; Chathuranga, PK; Kulasekera, AL; Jayaweera, ND [Conference-Extended-Abstract]
