Movement Control of Smart Mosque's Domes using CSRNet and Fuzzy Logic Techniques

arXiv · Oct 13

This paper proposes a smart dome model for mosques that uses AI to control dome movements based on weather conditions and overcrowding. The model utilizes Congested Scene Recognition Network (CSRNet) and fuzzy logic techniques in Python to determine when to open and close the domes to maintain fresh air and sunlight. The goal is to automatically manage dome operation based on real-time data, specifying the duration for which the domes should remain open each hour.

Mosques Smart Domes System using Machine Learning Algorithms

arXiv · Aug 30

This paper proposes a smart dome system for mosques that uses machine learning to automatically control dome ventilation based on weather conditions and outside temperatures. The system was tested on the Prophet Mosque in Saudi Arabia using K-Nearest Neighbors and Decision Tree algorithms. The Decision Tree algorithm achieved a higher accuracy of 98% compared to 95% for the k-NN algorithm.

Muslim civilization enriches the world

KAUST · Feb 10

Salim T. S. Al-Hassani from the University of Manchester presented at KAUST's 2019 Winter Enrichment Program about the contributions of Muslim civilization to science and engineering. The lecture highlighted inventions like early clocks from Muslim heritage, including Al-Jazari's elephant clock. Al-Hassani aims to address the neglect of non-European cultures' impact on humanity. Why it matters: The talk emphasizes the historical significance of Islamic contributions to science and technology, relevant for promoting STEM education and cultural awareness in the region.

A Missing and Found Recognition System for Hajj and Umrah

arXiv · Aug 27

A proposed recognition system aims to identify missing persons, deceased individuals, and lost objects during the Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages in Saudi Arabia. The system intends to leverage facial recognition and object identification to manage the large crowds expected in the coming decade, estimated to reach 20 million pilgrims. It will be integrated into the CrowdSensing system for crowd estimation, management, and safety.
