AI-Based Deepfake Voice Detection Model for Hindi Language
Abstract: Most current research on deepfake voice detection focuses heavily on English or Mandarin, creating a significant security gap for Hindi speakers. To address this, we developed a detection framework specifically tailored for the Hindi language using a lightweight approach: Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) feature extraction paired with an XGBoost classifier. We trained the system on a large dataset comprising over 99,000 real voice samples and roughly 3,800 synthetic samples, each …

Community Resilience and Adaptability on Built Environment: A Study with reference to post-tsunami resettlement at Ambalangoda, Sri Lanka
Abstract: This study investigates the community resilience with reference to a tsunami resettlement at Ambalangoda in Sri Lanka. The theoretical framework used in the research is based on the “Adaptive Cycle of Resilience” developed by Holling and Gunderson. This cycle consists of four different phases; exploitation, conservation, release and reorganization. Any social system which is adapting to the changing external conditions would go through these stages of the cycle. The study …
