Development and Preliminary Evaluation of a Machine Vision‐Guided Smart Sprayer Prototype Toward Precision Vegetable Weeding

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable weed management necessitates herbicide‐reduced, precision weed control. Recent advancements in machine vision and artificial intelligence (AI) for weed recognition and localization have created new opportunities for high‐precision weeding. Although blanket spraying systems are widely used for weed removal, machine vision‐guided, AI‐

Lacking data? No worries! How synthetic images can alleviate image scarcity in wildlife surveys: A case study with muskox (Ovibos moschatus)

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study investigates the integration of synthetic imagery, created with diffusion‐based models, to supplement limited training data and improve muskox (Ovibos moschatus) detection in zero‐shot (ZS) and few‐shot (FS) settings. ZS models detected more than 80% of muskoxen in real images, confirming the potential of synthetic data as a substitute for ...

Sliding Doors: Frame Uptake and Rejection by Learners in a Museum‐Based Climate Learning Experience

open access: yesScience Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Science education efforts that support public understanding of modern climate change are critically needed. However, implementing climate‐related learning experiences can be challenging, as public audiences tend to experience a wide range of understandings of and emotions around the issue. In light of these challenges, many scholars have posed
