    Integrated machine learning system for curbing corruption
    (KIBU, 2018-06-12) Barasa, Peter Wawire; Wechuli, Alice Nambiro; Barasa, Samuel Wafula
    In this paper, the authors focus on using machine learning to fight corruption in governments. Corruption has been rampant in public and private sectors though prosecuting the cases in court has been wanting due to lack of clear evidence that convicts those involved. Since government operations have been digitized, machine learning algorithms can be used to scout corruption evidence which can be used to prosecute those involved in corruption. The research will adopt a positivism research philosophy and Inductive research approach. Desktop research design will be used. This paper seeks to come up with an integrated machine learning system that will connect to all the digitized government systems to curb corruption in governments.

    The use of internet of things to combat the global challenge of terrorism
    (KIBU, 2018-06-12) Barasa, Samuel Wafula; Wechuli, Alice Nambiro; Barasa, Peter Wawire
    In the global arena, Internet of Things has transpired as a prominent technology which is capable of providing better methods of identification and monitoring. Today, more and more devices are connected to not only the Internet but also to each other, thus Internet of Things enables increased convenience, efficiency and energy conservation. Therefore, internet connectivity moving away from the traditional devices to wearables and household devices such as fridges and washing machines, the Internet of Things can easily be used for monitoring, location tracking, identification, surveillance and eventually gaining access to networks. Each device will have an IP address for communication on the network. The security experts can use the surveillance services to intercept signals of networked devices. The information from speeches, satellites, videos and news is monitored, collected and analyzed to facilitate intelligence services to close in on terrorists. This will be achieved by identifying the state of the art technologies using desktop research on a global perspective to combat terrorism.
