Keynote TitleArtificial intelligence and security: ethical-legal challenges.

Abstract – Artificial Intelligence integrates the technological convergence that structures the Fourth Industrial Revolution. This technology has been used in several possibilities to ensure security, through personal identification through iris of the eyes and facial recognition. There is still no regulatory structure for AI and its varied uses. Therefore, it will be important to build normative models based on the incorporation of principles that combine legal and ethical aspects.

Keywords – Artificial intelligence; Risks; Security; Ethical-legal challenges; Regulatory Sandbox

Keynote TitleSecurity and New Technologies – the role of law in internet security

Abstract – The fast and ever growing technological developments in the area of communication and information in cyberspace offers great possibilities for the future, and many advances are made by the use of the internet. But this whole process may represent an affront to the fundamental rights of privacy and protection of personal data. Due to the globalization and the fast advance of the use of the internet in every area of our lives, from our personal to our professional day to day, the discussion of privacy and personal data protection in cyberspace as a fundamental right is mandatory. This way, it is nuclear to indicate how and to what extent regulatory state instruments and laws are able to ensure the legal protection of the right to privacy and inviolability of personal data. For this purpose, it is important to analyse the prospects of the Brazilian institution regulatory frameworks for the governance of cyberspace and conclude if it is sufficient to guarantee our human right to privacy and the safe use of the cyberspace.

Keywords – Technological developments, Fundamental rights of privacy and protection of personal data, Regulatory state instruments and laws, Brazilian institution regulatory frameworks, Human right to privacy, Safe use of the cyberspace.

Keynote TitleCyber challenges and the world after post-pandemic realities

Abstract – We live in times of accelerated use and exploitation of digital in all sectors of human activity. The pandemic and its circumstances served to anchor what is most profound that digital provides: the disruption of traditional notions of time and space.

The current context is one of transition, confronting old practices with their limitations and finding new avenues of application. This leads to an open setting that will be fertile for countless innovations with the capacity to transform old practices.

In a digital transformation context much deeper than that of tools and support, new practices are amplified by the possibilities of electronics being replaced or complemented by quantum and thus obtaining a capacity to deal with information, with its processing, storage, and communication, at scales not easy to perceive by current standards.

In this scenario, there are enough challenges and needs to keep the world centered on human activity and people – creating new hierarchies that cope with emergent networks. These cyber challenges are worth of focus to provide a more secure environment for both people and organizations to strive.

Keynote Title – Human Rights: source and limit to the use of Artificial Intelligence in Public Security

Abstract The public security need, as a central element of coexistence in social peace, leads states to use the technologies that can help the police in the maintenance of security and public peace. This fact imposes the equational of the binominal – public interest / individual interest.

The new technologies arising from the development of online technology and the nowadays called Artificial Intelligence – AI come to pose new challenges in the use by the public security forces of these new means, imposing the need to discuss the limits that must be observed.

It´s necessary to have a wide discussion about the scope and limits that the use of these new technologies must observe, in order to respect Human Rights, avoiding their violation, and consequently, safeguarding them from the public authorities in the desire to impose their will.

Our research intents to study the means used by the public security forces that must always start from the need of the effective and individual protection of Human Rights. However, it always has as a limit the non-violation of them in an alleged public interest.

Keywords – Human Rights; Public Interest; Public Security; Artificial Intelligence – AI; Internet.

Keynote Title :  Object Detection in Medical Images using Image Segmentation and Deep Learning

 Abstract : Heart attack is mainly caused due to atherosclerosis. It is a coronary artery disease (CAD) and it is a leading cause of death worldwide. It occurs when the coronary artery that supplies blood and oxygen to the heart and different parts of the body becomes blocked or narrowed due to deposition of proteins, cholesterol and other fatty deposits in the inner wall of the coronary artery. This results in a heart attack or damage to the heart tissue. Existing techniques for detection of plaque are Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Electron Beam Computed Tomography (EBCT) and Angiography, among these existing techniques Angiography is widely used at present to detect and cure heart attack. The currently available techniques are expensive, beyond the reach of normal people, not easily available in remote areas and cannot detect deeply embedded plaque with accuracy at early stages. The plaque is only detected by these techniques when blockage in artery is more than 70%. In order to remove the limitations of existing techniques Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) technique is proposed in our research work. This technique is based on application of image processing by using bio-markers and Marker Controlled Watershed Modified Image Segmentation Algorithm which better detects the Plaque deposits embedded deep inside the Coronary Artery wall that are undetectable by Angiography or other Cardiac test that are prone to rupture without warning sign. In addition to this technique Artificial Intelligence (Deep Learning) computing technique will also be used for image classification. The proposed technique has tendency to detect inner layer (foreground) i.e. object and outer layer (background) of the artery for better detection of Region of Interest (ROI), which is deeper region of soft noncalcified plaque. So, the result obtained using the proposed techniques is expected to play a  crucial role in the visualization of inner view of Coronary Artery containing Plaque with more accuracy and also expected to show the exact measurement of plaque location, size and quantification for pre-detection of heart attack.
