Recognizing hand-object interactions presents a significant challenge in computer vision. It arises due to the varying nature of hand-object interactions. Moreover, estimating the 3D position of a hand from a single frame can be problematic, especially when the hand obstructs the view of the object from the observer's perspective.

Early detection and treatment are typically favored to recover infected patients since untreated pneumonia can lead to major complications in the elderly (>65 years) and children (<5 years). The objectives of this work are to develop several models to evaluate big X-ray images (XRIs) of the chest, to determine whether the images show/do not show signs of pneumonia, and to compare the models based on their accuracy, precision, recall, loss, and receiver operating characteristic area under the ROC curve scores.

The spread of COVID-19 did not stop at humans but also reached animals, so it was necessary to limit it is spread and diagnose cases quickly by applying a quarantine to the infected people. Recently x-ray lung images are used to determine the infection and from here the idea of this research came to use deep learning techniques to analyze x-ray lung images publicly available on Kaggle to possibly detect COVID-19 infection.

The E-learning delivery mechanisms have evolved to enhanced levels facilitating the education delivery with greater penetration and access to mass student population worldwide. Nevertheless, there is still scope to conduct further research in order to innovate and improve higher quality delivery mechanism using the state-of-the-art information and communication technologies (ICT) available today.

To reduce the spread of the virus, education institutions have been forced to switch to e-learning using available educational platforms, despite the challenges facing this sudden transformation. In order to further explore the potentials challenges facing learning activities, the focus of this study is on e-learning from students' and instructor's perspectives on using and implementing e-learning systems in a public university during the COVID-19 pandemic.
