The College of Computer Science and Information Technology held a seminar entitled (Understanding Deep Fake Technologies). The seminar was given by Dr. Ali Ridha Hassoun of the Department of Computer Science. He explained the mechanisms of GAN neural networks in generating fake videos and ways of identifying them. He added that deep fake is the latest video faking technology where people's faces are changed to other faces for the purpose of blackmailing or damaging reputation. This issue is, of course, of great importance in our conservative society.…

A seminar was held by Asst. Prof. Dr. Ashwan Anwar Abdul-Mun’im, a lecturer in the Computer Department/College of Computer Science and Information Technology. The seminar submitted a proposal to apply machine learning techniques to the problem of breast cancer classification. This classification depends on the use of the unsupervised linear transformation technique together with Cos Similarity Machine Learning. In the unsupervised transformation, the Principal Components Analysis (PCA) technique was used. PCA is used in analyzing a breast cancer dataset to identify effective and unique features. In addition,…

Asst. Prof. Dr. Nour Dhia’ Jawad, a tutor at the Computer Department / College of Computer Science and Information Technology, held a seminar on (DRIVER DROWSINESS DETECTION BASED ON SPATIO-TEMPORAL FEATURES WITH 3D CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORKS). It deals with how to use, implement and monitor a person's behaviour in a computer vision system in various control applications that provide human-computer interaction. The essence of these computer vision systems is based on extracting the various features of the human being and then tracking these feature maps over time…

On 14 /12, a seminar was held in the computer department on discovering events in Twitter using modelling. The seminar was conducted by Dr. Hiba Jabbar, who explained the significance of Twitter as an academic research platform due to its importance in social media sites. She also discussed a system that discovers events from the textual analysis of tweets depending on the principle of topic modelling. She further revealed the challenges of the topic and how to solve them scientifically.
