Introduction
In today's world, women's safety is one of the most essential concerns, and harassment is prevalent and on the rise in almost every country. Rape cases in India have increased by more than two-thirds since 2013, according to the smart IoT devices. Having a high number of reported incidents indicates a lack of predictability, and women feel less secure because of a variety of factors related to their safety. Women's safety has grown to be a major concern as a consequence of an increase in crimes against women. Every day, women confront many difficulties, necessitating the creation of a system to guarantee their safety. This study focuses on such a situation and offers an alternative answer to the problems that women encounter on a daily basis. Smart Wearable Device (SWD) is presented in this study, which is related to the Internet of Things (IoT), a piezo buzzer, a GPS sensor, a push-button, and Machine Learning Strategies. This women's electronic framework demonstrates a nearly secure situation. One of the most significant advantages of this gadget is that it adjusts the real-time dataset obtained from a variety of sources, including a social media dataset and live recordings from a smart device. Women might feel more comfortable knowing that they have an extra ally in the form of this Smart Device.
Although there are several present security frameworks, the need for a more sophisticated smart security framework is increasing every day. Smart security architecture for women has been created to solve these issues. There are several studies in the literature on women's safety measures, but they are all hampered by issues like high costs, a narrow scope of coverage, inaccuracies, and a disproportionately high time commitment. Modern technology and machine learning help were used to construct this piece. This was a natural outcome. You don't need anyone else's support or reliance when you use this gadget for women and children. When using the MLSTF, which stands for Machine Learning, based Social Threatening Filter, all of the dataset's emotional characteristics are filtered out while processing is taking place. As a result, the data processing leads to an intelligent testing phase with the appropriate accuracy standards.

In order to record emergency speech recordings, the gadget is equipped with sensors such as a Body Position Identification Sensor, a Refers To the capability Sensor, an Accidents Recognition Sensor, a Small Mic, and a pen-hole camera as shown in fig 1. With the support of internet services and wireless connections, these partnerships enable the smart gadget to operate flawlessly. When a lady is in danger, she may simply reach the smart device's button and request assistance. When the emergency button is pushed, notifications are sent to pre-registered contacts as well as women's hotline numbers. A GPS sensor is also used to transmit the position. A link to the victim's current location will be sent to the recipient. The attacker may shut the victim's mouth and prevent her from requesting assistance. The speaker on this gadget generates high-frequency sound. It will raise the alarm in the surrounding area and make the attacker fearful.
One of the most essential concerns for women's safety systems is Sentiment Analysis, in which data from social media is gathered and processed using the presented technique MLSTF categorization concept based on emotive elements. For example, this view may be used to create a sentiment which can then be used to categorise sentiment. We need to determine what sorts of needs are derived from the subject's feelings. If the user wishes to classify tweets based on their content, he or she will need to employ a computer formula. The size of the sentimental class is a critical factor in determining the algorithm's efficacy. Class module sentiment classifications of tweets may be divided into Positive, Negative, and Moderate, for example. Based on machine learning and dialect learning, sentiment analysis techniques may be divided into two basic categories: A machine learning strategy is used to extract features and train models using a collection of features. In contrast, the dialect learning method makes use of the same language and scoring system to discover differences of opinion. In this study, we make use of artificial intelligence. Data collection, pre-processing, feature extraction, feature selection, emotion detection, and emotion classification are the fundamental phases in emotional analysis. Machine learning methods or simple calculations may be used to accomplish these tasks. This picture, Fig-2, depicts the data analysis process in a straightforward and concise way, with each step clearly labeled and shown.

The main difficulty in dealing with such circumstances is the location identification, which is addressed by the suggested technique by providing a Smart Wearable Device (SWD). With the help of the Global Positioning System (GPS), this SWD can offer precise longitude and latitude coordinates. A person's whereabouts may be tracked with this technology, as can the location of an item. GPS will transmit a message including the location's current state, time, longitude, and latitude. In order to precisely find the present location of a device, GPS first establishes a connection with the requisite number of satellites and then starts a procedure that solves linear equations. In reality, the GPS doesn't actually need consumers to send data; it works independently on the internet to enhance GPS positioning. This GPS feature is accessible as a module for any mobility device, enabling women to monitor their whereabouts in potentially dangerous situations. The GPS position data is immediately sent to the IoT server. During a certain amount of time, location information is uploaded into the server with a summary of each location. In the event of an emergency, it is simple to locate the ladies based on this information.
Using a Smart Wearable Device, the suggested method presents a novel mechanism for protecting women against harassment and associated risks (SWD). To assess emergency scenarios and transfer those facts to the Internet of Things modules for monitoring and maintenance, this SWD comprises a number of unique sensors and an Artificial Intelligence process. Remotely, machine learning processes are engaged and filter data depending on the emergency circumstances or regular situations; if any instance of emergency occurs, the relevant personnel will be contacted with location information and a snapshot of the current situation. As a result, the individual may move quickly to save the ladies in an unharmed way. The Smart Wearable Device (SWD) combines all of these features into one convenient package for ladies. SWD-bound sensors include the Body Position Identification Sensor, the Place Sensor, the Accident Detection Sensor, the Small Mic, which recognizes emergency speech and acts as a black box, and the Penhole Camera, which captures a picture of the appropriate location. The Body Posture Identification Sensor is utilized to determine whether the female subject is in an upright or a felt-down position. The GPS module offers a thorough report of the women's current position, including their latitude and longitude, so investigators may pinpoint their precise location. If an accident occurs, the Accident Detection Sensor will quickly detect it based on the vibration level and send an alert to the right person so that they may take proper action. A pen-hole camera and a small microphone are utilized to record audio and images of the present scenario, which are then sent to the IoT server for processing. So, the SWD is able to execute at a high level because of these factors.

Proposed Model
The suggested solution presents a novel mechanism to safeguard women from harassment and other associated risks, which is accomplished via the use of a Smart Wearable Device (SWD) (SWD). A number of novel sensors and an Artificial Intelligence process are integrated into this SWD, which analyses emergency scenarios and passes those facts to IoT modules, for monitoring and maintenance, which collects data and sends it to the relevant cloud server. Data is filtered depending on an emergency or normal circumstances by a remote server-side machine learning process. In the case of an emergency, relevant persons are quickly contacted with location information and a snapshot of the present situation. In order for the individual to be able to act quickly and safely to rescue the ladies. Women will find the Smart Wearable Device (SWD) to be a useful companion since it combines all of these features in one convenient package. The following is a complete list of SWD's sensors: Spot sensor, accident detection sensor, small mic for detecting the emergency voice and pen hole camera for photographing the particular location are all included in this kit. Depending on the x and y-axis conceptions, the Body Posture Identification Sensor is employed to determine if the particular woman is in a straight position, felt-down, or subjected to any other limitations. The GPS module, which uses the Global Positioning System (GPS) to determine the women's current position, delivers a complete report of their current location, including their precise latitude and longitude. In the event of a collision, this sensor is utilized to identify the female victims. Whenever an accident occurs, this sensor detects it and provides an alarm to the relevant people so that they may take the required precautions to avoid additional harm. A small microphone too a pen-hole camera are utilized to record the speech & accompanying images of the present scenario, which are then transmitted to an Internet of Things-enabled distant server for processing. As a result of all of this, the SWD is able to operate in an efficient way.

The suggested logic is comprised of two important components: a machine learning-based data summarization model for assuring women's safety upgrades. Combining these two approaches results in a brand-new technique, the Machine Learning-based Social Threatening Filter (MLSTF). The MLSTF logic uses emotive estimates to extract dataset attributes in this technique, and any incorrect perceptions discovered are immediately communicated back to the relevant individuals so that they can respond appropriately. To illustrate how this logic is activated by an Internet of Things (IoT) equipped microcontroller in compliance with the ESP specifications, below is a simple master block diagram. The transmitter component of the suggested technique is shown in a master block diagram as shown in fig 3, and a novel microcontroller is used in combination with IoT Web interface in this research. Cost-effective internet services may now be made available through the IoTWeb interface in combination with bespoke mobile apps in conjunction with networked GPS and GSM capabilities.
