Advancing Early Detection of Virus Yellows: Developing a Hybrid Convolutional Neural Network for Automatic Aphid Counting in Sugar Beet Fields [PDF]
Aphids are efficient vectors to transmit virus yellows in sugar beet fields. Timely monitoring and control of their populations are thus critical to prevent the large-scale outbreak of virus yellows. However, the manual counting of aphids, which is the most common practice, is labor-intensive and time-consuming.

Vegetation Mapping by UAV Visible Imagery and Machine Learning [PDF]
An experimental field cropped with sugar-beet with a wide spreading of weeds has been used to test vegetation identification from drone visible imagery. Expert masked and hue-filtered pictures have been used to train several Machine Learning algorithms to develop a semi-automatic methodology for identification and mapping species at high resolution ...

Ice-templating beet-root pectin foams: Controlling texture, mechanics and capillary properties [PDF]
Sugar beet pectin is a byproduct of the sugar industry with a particularly low gelling power which hinders its application as gelling agent and thickener. Here we consider the use of freeze casting to shape sugar beet pectin into lightweight foams.

Weed Density and Distribution Estimation for Precision Agriculture using Semi-Supervised Learning [PDF]
Uncontrolled growth of weeds can severely affect the crop yield and quality. Unrestricted use of herbicide for weed removal alters biodiversity and cause environmental pollution. Instead, identifying weed-infested regions can aid selective chemical treatment of these regions. Advances in analyzing farm images have resulted in solutions to identify weed
