T Information systems in organizations traditionally require users to remember their secret pins (password), token, card number, or both to confirm their identities. However, the technological trend has been moving towards personal identification based on individual behavioural attributes (such as gaits, signature, and voice) or physiological (such as palmprint, fingerprint, face, iris, or ear). These attributes (biometrics) offer many advantages over knowledge and possession-based approaches. For example, palmprint images have rich, unique features for reliable human identification, and it has received significant attention due to their stability, reliability, uniqueness, and non-intrusiveness. This paper provides an overview and evaluation of contactless palmprint recognition system, the state-of-the-art performance of existing works, different types of "Region of Interest" (ROI) extraction algorithms, feature extraction, and matching algorithms. Finally, the findings obtained are presented and discussed
An implementation of SAP enterprise resource planning : a case study of the South African revenue services and taxation sectors
(Informa UK Limited, 2023) Aroba, Oluwasegun Julius; Abayomi, Abdultaofeek
A SAP enterprise resource planning (ERP) is a software system that assists organizations in automating and managing fundamental business processes for ideal performance. This research study aims to ameliorate the business operation problems of the South African Revenue Services (SARS) and Taxation sectors. Involving tax sectors in the preliminary stages of SAP ERP design and implementation saves SARS’ clients some resources such as money and time while also allowing various departments to improve their tax technology ecosystem. To address the associated financial, operational, technical, and compliance challenges, an ERP implementation requiring significant support from strategy execution is suggested. This proposed model for designing and implementing an ERP with a case study of the South African Revenue Services (SARS) and other taxation sectors, the benefits of ERP system within the taxation sector, implementation challenges, and proposed solutions are presented in this article while utilising data from a survey that was conducted for 50 SARS employees and taxpayers outside the organization. The proposed ERP system will enhance the connectivity of all operations within the SARS with a central access to all departments rather than having silos of business operations. From our analysis, the Cronbach report of 0.85 obtained, which is greater than 0.7 minimum, shows that it fits the proposed solution of a SAP ERP mobile app for inclusivity in the operational processes for both SARS employees and other taxpayers.
Towards real-time tracking of persons in distress phase situations using emotional physiological signals
(2019) Abayomi, Abdultaofeek; Olugbara, Oludayo O.; Heukelman, Delene
This research work investigates physiological signals based human emotion and its incorporation in an affective system architecture for real-time tracking of persons in distress phase situations to prevent the occurrence of casualties. In a casualty situation, a mishap has already occurred leading to life, limb and valuables being in a state of peril. However, in a distress phase situation, there is a high likelihood that a tragedy is about to occur unless an immediate assistance is rendered. The distress phase situations include the spate of kidnapping, human trafficking and terrorism related crimes that could lead to casualty such as loss of lives, properties, finances and destruction of infrastructure. These situations are of global concern and worldwide phenomenon that necessitate a system that could mitigate the alarming trend of social crimes. The novel idea of deploying a combination of data and knowledge driven approaches using wearable sensor devices supported by machine learning methods could prove useful as a preventive mechanism in a distress phase situation. Such a system could be achieved through modelling human emotion recognition, including the harvesting and recognising human emotion physiological signals. Different methods have been applied in emotion recognition domain because the extraction of relevant discriminating features has been identified as an unresolved and one of the most daunting aspects of physiological signals based human emotion recognition system. In this thesis, emotion physiological signals, image processing technique and shallow learning based on radial basis function neural network were used to construct a system for real-time tracking of persons in distress phase situations. The system was tested using the Database for Emotion Analysis using Physiological Signal (DEAP) to ascertain the recognition performance that could be achieved. Emotion representations such as Arousal, Valence, Dominance and Liking have been creatively mapped to different conditions of human safety and survival state like happy phase, distress phase and casualty phase in a real-time system for tracking of persons. The constructed system can practically benefit security agencies, emergency services, rescue teams and restore confidence to both the potential victims and their family by proactively providing assistance in an emergency event of a distress phase situation. Moreover, the system would prove beneficial in stemming the tide of the identified societal crimes and tragedies by thwarting the successful progress of a distress phase situation through an application of information communication technology to address critical societal challenges. The performance of the recognition algorithmic component of the constructed system gives accuracy that outperforms the state of the art results based on deep learning techniques.
