Additionally, the system architecture will be designed as a Flask API to allow seamless interaction between different models and external applications. --- ## System Architecture Overview The Hostel Grievance Redressal System will be built as a centralized Flask API server that hosts all AI/ML models. This architecture allows different services and applications to interact with the models by sending HTTP requests containing input data and receiving the model predictions in response. Each AI/ML functionality is exposed through distinct endpoints, enabling modularity and scalability. ### **Key Components** 1. **Flask API Server** - **Purpose:** Serve as the central hub for all AI/ML models, managing incoming requests and routing them to the appropriate model endpoints. - **Features:** - RESTful API design for standardized interactions. - Authentication and authorization mechanisms to secure endpoints. - Logging and monitoring to track usage and performance. 2. **Model Endpoints** - **Purpose:** Each AI/ML functionality is encapsulated within its dedicated endpoint, allowing independent interaction and management. - **Endpoints:** - `/api/intelligent-routing` - `/api/sentiment-analysis` - `/api/multilingual-translation` - `/api/job-recommendation` 3. **Data Handling and Validation** - **Purpose:** Ensure that incoming data adheres to the required schemas and formats before processing. - **Features:** - Input validation using libraries like `pydantic` or `marshmallow`. - Error handling to manage invalid or malformed requests gracefully. 4. **Scalability and Deployment** - **Purpose:** Deploy the Flask API server in a scalable environment to handle varying loads and ensure high availability. - **Tools:** - Docker for containerization. - Kubernetes or cloud-based services (e.g., AWS, GCP) for orchestration. - CI/CD pipelines for automated deployment and updates. --- ## 1.

**Sample Input:** ```json { "job_id": "J12346", "type": "Electrical", "description": "Power outage in room 204.", "urgency_level": "Critical", "submission_timestamp": "2023-10-02T08:15:00Z", "location": { "hostel_name": "Hostel A", "floor_number": 2, "room_number": "204" }, "workers": [ { "worker_id": "W67890", "department": "Electrical", "current_workload": 3, "availability_status": "Available", "job_success_rate": 0.95, "current_location": { "hostel_name": "Hostel A", "floor_number": 2, "room_number": "210" } }, { "worker_id": "W67891", "department": "Mechanical", "current_workload": 2, "availability_status": "Available", "job_success_rate": 0.90, "current_location": { "hostel_name": "Hostel A", "floor_number": 2, "room_number": "215" } } ] } ``` - **Sample Output:** ```json { "job_id": "J12346", "assigned_worker_id": "W67890", "assignment_timestamp": "2023-10-02T08:16:00Z", "expected_resolution_time": "1 hour", "location": { "hostel_name": "Hostel A", "floor_number": 2, "room_number": "204" } } ``` ### **Additional Recommendation Factors** Beyond the factors provided, the following additional factors can enhance job recommendations: 5. **Current Traffic Load:** The number of jobs currently assigned to nearby workers. 6. **Department Specialization:** Specific expertise within general department categories (e.g., high-voltage electrical systems). 7. **Worker's Past Performance in Similar Jobs:** Higher priority to workers who have successfully resolved similar issues efficiently. 8. **Geographical Proximity:** Minimizing travel time by assigning jobs to the closest available worker. 9. **Time of Day:** Allocating jobs considering workers' shift timings and peak activity periods. 10. **Worker's Preferences:** Respecting workers' preferences for certain types of jobs or locations within their department. --- # Directory Structure ``` Hostel-Management-and-Greivance-Redressal-System/ ├── .env ├── Dockerfile ├── a.py ├── app.py ├── dir_structure.md ├── docs.md ├── readme.md ├── requirements.txt ├── routes.py ├── space.yml ├── test_endpoints.py ├── config/ │ ├── __init__.py │ ├── config.py ├── docs/ │ ├── README.md │ ├── a.md │ ├── ai_plan.md │ ├── basic.md │ ├── data_plan.md │ ├── docs.md │ ├── plan.txt │ ├── ppt.md │ ├── project_report.md ├── models/ │ ├── intelligent_routing/ │ │ ├── docs.md │ │ ├── generate_data.py │ │ ├── model.py │ │ ├── test_model.py │ │ ├── train.py │ │ ├── saved_model/ │ │ │ ├── model.keras │ │ ├── test_data/ │ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ │ ├── test_data.json │ │ ├── test_results/ │ │ │ ├── confusion_matrix.png │ │ │ ├── roc_curve.png │ │ │ ├── test_report.json │ │ ├── train_data/ │ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ │ ├── training_data.json │ ├── job_recommendation/ │ │ ├── docs.md │ │ ├── generate_data.py │ │ ├── model.py │ │ ├── test.py │ │ ├── train.py │ │ ├── saved_model/ │ │ │ ├── model.keras │ │ ├── test_data/ │ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ │ ├── test_data.json │ │ ├── test_results/ │ │ │ ├── test_report.json │ │ ├── train_data/ │ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ │ ├── training_data.json │ ├── multilingual_translation/ │ │ ├── model.py │ │ ├── test_model.py │ │ ├── test_data/ │ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ │ ├── test_data.json │ │ ├── test_results/ │ │ │ ├── test_report.json │ │ ├── train_data/ │ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ │ ├── training_data.json │ ├── sentiment_analysis/ │ │ ├── model.py │ │ ├── test_model.py │ │ ├── test_data/ │ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ │ ├── test_data.json │ │ ├── test_results/ │ │ │ ├── test_report.json │ │ ├── train_data/ │ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ │ ├── training_data.json ├── test_results/ │ ├── endpoint_test_results.json ├── test_results1/ │ ├── endpoint_test_results.json ├── utils/ │ ├── __init__.py │ ├── dir_str_creater.py │ ├── logger.py ``` # Conclusion Implementing these AI/ML functionalities will significantly enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the Hostel Grievance Redressal System. By leveraging advanced technologies like reinforcement learning, transformer-based models, and anomaly detection algorithms, and by integrating them within a Flask API framework, the system will provide a more responsive, empathetic, and proactive approach to managing resident grievances. Proper data collection, preprocessing, model training, and continuous monitoring are crucial to the success of these implementations. Following the detailed steps outlined above will ensure a robust and scalable integration of AI/ML capabilities into the existing system. --- # License This project is licensed under the [MIT License](LICENSE). # Contact For any questions or feedback, please contact [your-email@example.com](mailto:your-email@example.com).
