Detecting Aedes Aegypti Mosquitoes through Audio Classification with Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
The incidence of mosquito-borne diseases is significant in under-developed regions, mostly due to the lack of resources to implement aggressive control measurements against mosquito proliferation. A potential strategy to raise community awareness regarding mosquito proliferation is building a live map of mosquito incidences using smartphone apps and ...

A deep convolutional neural network for classification of Aedes albopictus mosquitoes [PDF]
Monitoring the spread of disease-carrying mosquitoes is a first and necessary step to control severe diseases such as dengue, chikungunya, Zika or yellow fever. Previous citizen science projects have been able to obtain large image datasets with linked geo-tracking information.

Insulin-Like Peptide Signaling in Mosquitoes: The Road Behind and the Road Ahead
Insulin signaling is a conserved pathway in all metazoans. This pathway contributed toward primordial metazoans responding to a greater diversity of environmental signals by modulating nutritional storage, reproduction, and longevity.

mAedesID: Android Application for Aedes Mosquito Species Identification using Convolutional Neural Network [PDF]
Vector-Borne Disease (VBD) is an infectious disease transmitted through the pathogenic female Aedes mosquito to humans and animals. It is important to control dengue disease by reducing the spread of Aedes mosquito vectors. Community awareness plays acrucial role to ensure Aedes control programmes and encourages the communities to involve active ...

Ensuring successful introduction of Wolbachia in natural populations of Aedes aegypti by means of feedback control [PDF]
The control of the spread of dengue fever by introduction of the intracellular parasitic bacterium Wolbachia in populations of the vector Aedes aegypti, is presently one of the most promising tools for eliminating dengue, in the absence of an efficient vaccine.
