Intelligent Safety Life Jacket Using Wsn Technology
The body loses heat in hypothermia because it cannot maintain its internal temperature owing to a freezing environment. As a result, the body temperature will decrease rapidly. The person will lose consciousness or faint when the body temperature falls below 35C. This study targets detecting climbers' hypothermia and transmitting their health status to the climber's group. It is difficult for mountain climbers to check their health and hypothermia symptoms for themselves and their climbing companions. To address this issue, we created a life jacket with an integrated hardware kit with a Peltier, temperature, and pulse sensor. LoRa Network is used to communicate with the climber's group. Alert messages are delivered to mountaineers via the Android app and suitable protocols, which helps save the climbers if any discrepancies occur. 2023 IEEE. -

Leveraging Model Distillation as a Defense Against Adversarial Attacks Based on Deep Learning
Adversarial attacks on deep learning models threaten machine learning system security and reliability. The above attacks use modest data alterations to produce erroneous model results while being undetected by humans. This work suggests model distillation to prevent adversarial perturbations.
