 Abstract

Delay-Tolerant Networks (DTNs) are decentralized networks that operate without a fixed infrastructure. In DTNs, there is no continuous connection connecting devices, and nodes in the network are often disrupted. DTNs are a practical option for applications that experience sporadic connectivity, significant delays, frequent packet errors, and high rates of packet loss. This project analyses false packet and selective packet drops threats and discusses mitigation strategies for misbehaving nodes. In addition, an Improved Merkle Hash Tree Approach (IMHTA) is proposed to mitigate the malicious node. IMHTA uses a root hash with all packets to identify and counteract both sorts of attacks. A malicious node drops or injects bogus packets, and the algorithm detects it. Trace-driven simulations show that the proposed algorithm improves detection accuracy, packet delivery/loss ratios, and false-positive/false-negative rates compared to previous algorithms that only detect one type of attack or malicious paths rather than specific attacking nodes. Additionally, this work quantitatively analyses numerous circumstances to precisely track DTN vehicular node placements. The proposed technique detects and mitigates false packet and selective packet drops attacks, improving communication network security with intermittent connectivity and large delays.

 Abstract

Video forgery is continuously increasing in the digital world due to breaches of information security, consequently establishing a scenario for image and video content monitoring for forgery identification. The spread of fake videos raises security risks and anarchy in society. The reason for video forgery is to the augmentation in the malware, which has facilitated user (anyone) to upload, download, or share objects online comprising audio, images, or video. With the development of technology and ease of creation of fake content, the manipulation of media is carried out on a large scale in recent times. Video forgery detection has applications in media science, forensic analysis, digital investigations, and authenticity verification of a video. The purpose of video forensic technology is to extract features to distinguish fake content frames from original videos. Deepfake media has posed a great threat to media integrity and is being produced and spread widely across social media platforms, the detection of which is seen to be a major challenge. Proposed, an approach for Deepfake detection has been provided for forgery detection in video. ResNet, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithm is used as an approach to detect the Deepfake videos. The model aims to enhance the performance of detecting forgery videos produced by a certain method as well as enhance the accuracy of the detector. The proposed approach only uses the deep features extracted from the ResNet CNN model then applies the conventional mathematical approach on these features to find the forgery in the video. It is the detector to be constantly updated with real-world data, and propose an initial solution in hopes of solving Deepfake video detection.

 Abstract

Free legal aid refers to the provision of legal assistance to individuals who are unable to afford legal representation or access to the justice system due to financial constraints. In India, the concept of free legal aid is enshrined in the Constitution under Article 39A, which directs the state to ensure that justice is not denied to any citizen by reason of economic or other disabilities. In India, the provision of free legal aid is primarily carried out through the National Legal Services Authority (NALSA) at the national level and State Legal Services Authorities (SLSAs) at the state level. These bodies coordinate and facilitate legal aid services through legal aid clinics, lok adalats, and panel lawyers who provide pro bono representation to eligible individuals. Overall, free legal aid plays a crucial role in upholding the principles of justice, equality, and the rule of law in India, ensuring that no one is denied access to justice merely because of their financial circumstances. Sexual abuse is a pervasive issue worldwide, with staggering prevalence rates across various demographics. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately 1 in 3 women globally have experienced physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence or non-partner sexual violence in their lifetime. Similarly, 1 in 6 men report experiencing sexual abuse before the age of 18. Despite these alarming statistics, sexual abuse remains significantly underreported, primarily due to stigma, fear of retaliation, and societal attitudes that place blame on the victim. The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023 (Indian Justice Code 2023) represents a watershed moment in legal reform aimed at addressing the challenges faced by victims of sexual abuse in seeking justice. Enacted with the objective of modernizing and streamlining India's legal framework, this comprehensive legislation includes provisions specifically tailored to enhance the handling of sexual abuse cases and support survivors throughout the legal process. In conclusion, the provision of free legal aid stands as a crucial pillar in ensuring access to justice for victims of sexual abuse. With the introduction of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023, marked advancements have been made in this realm, aiming to alleviate the burden of legal expenses and procedural complexities often faced by survivors. By mandating free legal aid for victims, this legislation not only addresses the financial barriers but also underscores the societal commitment to supporting survivors throughout their legal journey. Furthermore, it emphasizes the importance of holistic justice, recognizing that legal assistance is fundamental in empowering survivors to navigate the legal system and seek redress for the injustices they have endured. However, the efficacy of these measures relies not only on the enactment of laws but also on their effective implementation and continual evaluation to ensure they serve their intended purpose. Thus, while Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023 represents a significant stride towards enhancing access to justice for victims of sexual abuse, sustained efforts are essential to realize its full potential and foster a more equitable and supportive legal framework for survivors.

 Abstract

In a world where communication barriers often isolate individuals with hearing impairments, bridging the gap between spoken language and sign language becomes imperative. This project proposes a novel solution aimed at facilitating seamless communication between the deaf and hearing communities through a multimodal interface. The project focuses on developing two key functionalities: converting audio inputs into sign language and translating sign language gestures into audio and text outputs. To achieve this, the system integrates advanced machine learning algorithms, computer vision techniques, and natural language processing models. For the audio to sign language conversion, the system utilizes speech recognition to transcribe spoken language into text, which is then translated into sign language gestures using a deep learning-based sign language generation model. The generated sign language animations are displayed in real-time through an avatar or a robotic interface. Conversely, for sign language to audio and text translation, the system employs computer vision algorithms to detect and recognize sign language gestures from video inputs. These gestures are then interpreted into text using machine learning classifiers trained on sign language datasets. Finally, the text is converted into spoken language using text-to-speech synthesis for audio output and displayed alongside the animations for text output. The proposed system offers a comprehensive solution for bidirectional communication between the deaf and hearing communities, facilitating real-time interaction without language barriers. It has the potential to enhance accessibility in various settings, including education, healthcare, and public services, ultimately fostering inclusivity and equality for individuals with hearing impairments.
