    The limit of limits
    (School of Engineering and Technology, 2006) Babu Narayan, K.S.B.
    Throughout the history structural engineering has wrestled with the forces of nature and has accomplished the inspiring, daring and amazing feats of innovating structures of gigantic proportions. The tallest building on earth has crossed the 500m barrier and heights exceeding 800m are being ambitiously contemplated. Mind boggling spans for bridges are being suggested and possibilities are being investigated. At this most-happening juncture of time, this paper envisages to explore, with simple and familiar concepts, the limits of possibilities and the hurdles to be cleared to extend the limits. © 2006 by School of Engineering and Technology, Asian Institute of Technology.

    An IoT-Enabled Stress Detection Scheme Using Facial Expression
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2022) Angalakuditi, A.; Bhowmik, B.R.
    Depression is a significant problem in our society, as it is the cause of many health problems. The ongoing burden of intellectual function and continuous technological development, leading to constant change and the need for flexibility, makes the situation even more significant for people. It is necessary to see it early to prevent stress from becoming chronic and irreversible irritability. Unfortunately, a way to detect automatic, continuous, invisible pressure does not exist. This work involves monitoring a person's attention and emotional state across the ages. An IoT-enabled unobtrusive real-time monitoring system is developed to detect the person's emotional states by analyzing facial expression videos. The proposed method identifies individual emotions in each video frame, and a decision on the level of stress is made at the sequence level. © 2022 IEEE.
