Adulteration of bovine milk using urea remains a major food quality and health concern, motivating the development of rapid and quantitative screening tools. Conventional approaches, including laboratory-based analytical methods and spectroscopic techniques, have been used for urea detection; however, many remain less suitable for rapid, low-cost routine screening due to requirements such as specialized instrumentation, sample preparation, chemical reagents, or laboratory operation.
arXiv:2608. 13073v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Significant health risks are associated with the illegal, yet commonly practiced use of industrial-grade Calcium Carbide (CaC2) for ripening climacteric fruits like mango and banana, which leaves behind trace residues of arsenic and phosphorus.
arXiv:2607. 00834v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Near-Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has emerged as a promising alternative to traditional soil analysis methods, offering advantages such as speed, low cost, and non-destructive testing.
arXiv:2608. 07801v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Precision nitrogen (N) management (PNM) for cotton requires in-season monitoring of crop growth parameters and N status indicators to decide fertilizer timing, placement, and application rates for optimal canopy development and yield.
arXiv:2608. 11759v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Non-destructive X-ray imaging can reveal internal hazelnut defects that are difficult to detect by external inspection alone; however, automated interpretation remains challenging because of subtle radiographic differences among classes, marked class imbalance, and limited annotated data.
arXiv:2606. 00821v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This study addresses the challenge of controlling a complex, multi-parameter technological process -- pectin hydrolysis--extraction -- using machine learning methods.
arXiv:2608. 01202v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Fruit ripeness prediction (FRP) is a classification-based agricultural computer vision task that has attracted much attention, thanks to its wide-ranging advantages in agriculture field for both pre-harvest and post-harvest management.
Hyperspectral reflectance spectroscopy enables non-destructive estimation of plant functional traits, yet current deep learning approaches process spectra as one-dimensional sequences, which limits how they capture long-range inter-band dependencies. We asked whether transforming 1D spectra into 2D image representations improves multi-trait prediction with convolutional neural networks (CNN).
Fruit ripeness prediction (FRP) is a classification-based agricultural computer vision task that has attracted much attention, thanks to its wide-ranging advantages in agriculture field for both pre-harvest and post-harvest management. Accurate and timely FRP can be achieved using machine/deep learning-based hyperspectral image classification techniques.
arXiv:2606. 08948v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Comprehensive estimation of dietary micronutrients from food images could improve clinical nutrition care, but training such models requires large multimodal datasets linking diverse foods to complete nutrient profiles.
arXiv:2607. 25576v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) combines the optical absorption contrast of biological tissue with the spatial resolution of ultrasound, yet recovering the initial pressure distribution from sparse-view sensor measurements remains an ill-posed inverse problem.
