[PMID: 38849427 PMCID: PMC11161521 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-63611-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Pear pollination is performed by artificial pollination because the pollination rate through insect pollination is not stable. Pollen must be collected to secure sufficient pollen for artificial pollination. However, recently, collecting sufficient amounts of pollen in Japan has become difficult, resulting in increased imports from overseas. To solve this problem, improving the efficiency of pollen collection and strengthening the domestic supply and demand system is necessary. In this study, we proposed an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based method to estimate the amount of pear pollen. The proposed method used a deep learning-based object detection algorithm, You Only Look Once (YOLO), to classify and detect flower shapes in five stages, from bud to flowering, and to estimate the pollen amount. In this study, the performance of the proposed method was discussed by analyzing the accuracy and error of classification for multiple flower varieties. Although this study only discussed the performance of estimating the amount of pollen collected, in the future, we aim to establish a technique for estimating the time of maximum pollen collection using the method proposed in this study.

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to investigate the role of water stress on plants production. We propose a mathematical model for the dynamics growth of plants that takes into account the concentration of available water in the soil, water stress, plant production and plants compensation. Sensitivity analysis of the model has been performed in order to determine the impact of related parameters on the dynamics growth of plants. We present the theoretical analysis of the model with and without water stress. More precisely, we show that the full model is well-posedness. For each model, we compute the trivial equilibria and derive two thresholds parameters that determine the outcome of water stress within a plantation. Further, we perform numerical simulation on the case of banana-plantain simulations to support the theory. We found that the Hopf bifurcation occurs for a specific value of the water absorption rate of unstressed plants. The impact of the water stress on the banana-plantain production is also numerically investigated. After, the role of the water stress on the plant production is numerically investigated. We found that the water stress can cause about 68.16% of loss of banana-plantain production within a plantation with 1600 rejets initially planted. This suggests that climate change plays a detrimental role on banana-plantains production.

Abstract
The workflow of this research is based on numerous hypotheses involving the usage of pre-processing methods, wheat canopy segmentation methods, and whether the existing models from the past research can be adapted to classify wheat crop water stress. Hence, to construct an automation model for water stress detection, it was found that pre-processing operations known as total variation with L1 data fidelity term (TV-L1) denoising with a Primal-Dual algorithm and min-max contrast stretching are most useful. For wheat canopy segmentation curve fit based K-means algorithm (Cfit-kmeans) was also validated for the most accurate segmentation using intersection over union metric. For automated water stress detection, rapid prototyping of machine learning models revealed that there is a need only to explore nine models. After extensive grid search-based hyper-parameter tuning of machine learning algorithms and 10 K fold cross validation it was found that out of nine different machine algorithms tested, the random forest algorithm has the highest global diagnostic accuracy of 91.164% and is the most suitable for constructing water stress detection models.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:66853-66866. [PMID: 37099097 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-023-27174-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 04/18/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2023]
Abstract
In the past few decades, with the country's rapid development, water pollution has become a significant problem many countries face. Most of the existing water quality evaluation uses a single time-invariant model to simulate the evolution process, which cannot directly describe the complex behavior of long-term water quality evolution. In addition, the traditional comprehensive index method, fuzzy comprehensive evaluation, and gray pattern recognition have more subjective factors. It can lead to an inevitable subjectivity of the results and weak applicability. Given these shortcomings, this paper proposes a deep learning-improved comprehensive pollution index method to predict future water quality development. As a first processing step, the historical data is normalized. Three deep learning models, multilayer perceptron (MLP), recurrent neural network (RNN), and long short-term memory (LSTM), are used to train historical data. The optimal data prediction model is selected through simulation and comparative analysis of relevant measured data, and the improved entropy weight comprehensive pollution index method is applied to evaluate future water quality changes. Compared with the traditional time-invariant evaluation model, the feature of this model is that it can effectively reflect the development of water quality in the future. Moreover, the entropy weight method is introduced to balance the errors caused by subjective weight. The result shows that LSTM performs well in accurately identifying and predicting water quality. And the deep learning-improved comprehensive pollution index method can provide helpful information and enlightenment for water quality change, which can help improve the water quality prediction and scientific management of coastal water resources.

Abstract
Herbicides and heavy metals are hazardous substances of environmental pollution, resulting in plant stress and harming humans and animals. Identification of stress types can help trace stress sources, manage plant growth, and improve stress-resistant breeding. In this research, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) and chlorophyll fluorescence imaging (Chl-FI) were adopted to identify the rice plants under two types of herbicide stresses (butachlor (DCA) and quinclorac (ELK)) and two types of heavy metal stresses (cadmium (Cd) and copper (Cu)). Visible/near-infrared spectra of leaves (L-VIS/NIR) and stems (S-VIS/NIR) extracted from HSI and chlorophyll fluorescence kinetic curves of leaves (L-Chl-FKC) and stems (S-Chl-FKC) extracted from Chl-FI were fused to establish the models to detect the stress of the hazardous substances. Novel end-to-end deep fusion models were proposed for low-level, middle-level, and high-level information fusion to improve identification accuracy. Results showed that the high-level fusion-based convolutional neural network (CNN) models reached the highest detection accuracy (97.7%), outperforming the models using a single data source (<94.7%). Furthermore, the proposed end-to-end deep fusion models required a much simpler training procedure than the conventional two-stage deep learning fusion. This research provided an efficient alternative for plant stress phenotyping, including identifying plant stresses caused by hazardous substances of environmental pollution.

Abstract
The recent advancement in data science coupled with the revolution in digital and satellite technology has improved the potential for artificial intelligence (AI) applications in the forestry and wildlife sectors. India shares 7% of global forest cover and is the 8th most biodiverse region in the world. However, rapid expansion of developmental projects, agriculture, and urban areas threaten the country’s rich biodiversity. Therefore, the adoption of new technologies like AI in Indian forests and biodiversity sectors can help in effective monitoring, management, and conservation of biodiversity and forest resources. We conducted a systematic search of literature related to the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning algorithms (ML) in the forestry sector and biodiversity conservation across globe and in India (using ISI Web of Science and Google Scholar). Additionally, we also collected data on AI-based startups and non-profits in forest and wildlife sectors to understand the growth and adoption of AI technology in biodiversity conservation, forest management, and related services. Here, we first provide a global overview of AI research and application in forestry and biodiversity conservation. Next, we discuss adoption challenges of AI technologies in the Indian forestry and biodiversity sectors. Overall, we find that adoption of AI technology in Indian forestry and biodiversity sectors has been slow compared to developed, and to other developing countries. However, improving access to big data related to forest and biodiversity, cloud computing, and digital and satellite technology can help improve adoption of AI technology in India. We hope that this synthesis will motivate forest officials, scientists, and conservationists in India to explore AI technology for biodiversity conservation and forest management.

Abstract
The biggest challenge in the classification of plant water stress conditions is the similar appearance of different stress conditions. We introduce HortNet417v1 with 417 layers for rapid recognition, classification, and visualization of plant stress conditions, such as no stress, low stress, middle stress, high stress, and very high stress, in real time with higher accuracy and a lower computing condition. We evaluated the classification performance by training more than 50,632 augmented images and found that HortNet417v1 has 90.77% training, 90.52% cross validation, and 93.00% test accuracy without any overfitting issue, while other networks like Xception, ShuffleNet, and MobileNetv2 have an overfitting issue, although they achieved 100% training accuracy. This research will motivate and encourage the further use of deep learning techniques to automatically detect and classify plant stress conditions and provide farmers with the necessary information to manage irrigation practices in a timely manner.
