An Intelligent Model for Predicting and Preventing Overcrowding Incidents in Holy Sites Using Artificial Intelligence Technologies
Background: The Hajj pilgrimage, conducted annually, is one of the largest religious gatherings in the world, with over 2 million pilgrims converging on the sacred sites in Saudi Arabia. Incidents registered during the 1994-2015 period have also demonstrated that the reality of predictive Challenge management systems is indeed essential in eliminating incidents resulting from crowd behavior. Objective: This study develops and validates an AI-powered Challenge prediction model designed explicitly for Hajj pilgrimage management, utilizing deep learning techniques to forecast potential crowd emergencies and enable proactive intervention strategies. Techniques: A comprehensive 30-year dataset (1994-2024) was developed, based on historical incident data, real-time surveillance feeds, environmental sensors, and pilgrim flow patterns. A hybrid architecture combining Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) with ensemble techniques enables the integration of temporal analysis and spatial pattern identification within a single structure, resulting in robust classification. Results: The model proposed in this paper attained an overall accuracy of 87.3% in predicting crises, with 91.2% accuracy in predicting major incidents. The system shows a false positive rate of 8.1 percent and a false negative rate of 4.7 percent, with an average lead prediction time of 2.3 minutes. The evaluation of performance using the Area Under the Curve (AUC-ROC) yielded a value of 0.89, indicating excellent discriminative ability. Conclusion: The current research is the first to provide a comprehensive artificial intelligence-based Challenge prediction system for religious mass events. The model's accuracy, fast response, and cultural sensitivity enable it to foster safety in sacred spaces.

The Role of Graphic Design in Risk and Crisis Management
In the context of risk management, the term “risk” refers to the uncertainties surrounding future events and can have a positive or negative impact. Risk management aims to identify, evaluate, prioritize and mitigate risks to minimize potential negative impact. The use of risk management is indispensable. It is impossible to implement any project without facing risks that may affect the progress of the project. This includes unexpected circumstances, situations and threats. Risk management aims to analyze these factors and make informed decisions about how to address, respond to or mitigate risks. In the art world, risk management plays a vital role in achieving creativity and success. risk management contributes to achieving a balance between creativity and realism, and enables artists to better achieve their goals. We must also remember that risks are not only negative. Some risks may carry positive opportunities to improve business processes or increase profits. Integrating “risk management” with “fine arts” seems an interesting challenge. Although the two sections seem contradictory at first, there are some intersections that can be explored. In areas such as theatrical performances or concerts, can help estimate risks related to live performances, such as physical injuries or technical accidents, as well as valuable cultural property. Such as paintings or historical collectibles, can be used to protect these properties from loss or damage, in addition to using risk management to estimate potential risks in marketing strategies for works of art, and think about how to deal with them effectively.
