1. Evaluating Spectral Measures Derived From Airborne Multispectral Imagery for Detecting Cotton Root RotCotton root rot, caused by the soilborne fungus Phymatotrichopsis omnivore, is one of the most destructive plant diseases occurring...

2. Evaluating the Potential of In-season Spatial Prediction of Corn Yield and Responses to Nitrogen by Combining Crop Growth Modeling, Satellite Remote Sensing and Machine LearningNitrogen (N) is a critical yield-limiting factor for corn (Zea mays L.). However, over-application of N fertilizers is a common problem in the US Midwest, leading to many environmental problems. It is crucial to develop efficient precision N management (PNM) strategies to improve corn N management. Different PNM strategies have been developed using proximal and remote sensing, crop growth modeling and machine learning. These strategies have both advantages and disadvantages. There is... X.

3. 3D Computer Vision with a Spatial-temporal Neural Network for Lameness Detection of SowsThe lameness of sows is one of the biggest concerns for swine producers, which can lead to considerable economic losses due to reduced productivity and welfare. There is a real need for early detection of lameness in sows to enable timely intervention and minimize loss. Currently, lame detection relies on visual observation and locomotion scoring of sows, which is subjective, labor-intensive, and difficult to conduct for large groups of animals within a short time. This study presents 3D computer... Y. Wang, Y. Lu, D. Morris, M. Benjamin, M. Lavagnino, J. Mcintyre |
4. Automated Detection and Length Estimation of Green Asparagus Towards Selective HarvestingGreen asparagus is an important vegetable crop in the United States (U.S.). Harvesting the crop is notoriously labor-intensive, accounting for over 50% of production costs. There is an urgent need to develop harvesting automation technology for the U.S. asparagus industry to remain sustainable and competitive. Despite previous research and developments on mechanical asparagus harvesting, no practically viable products are available because of their low harvest selectivity and significant yield... J. Xu, Y.

5. Development of a Multispectral Vision-based Automated Sweetpotato Grading SystemQuality evaluation and grading of sweetpotatoes is a manual operation that requires significant labor input. Machine vision technology offers a promising solution for automated sweetpotato grading and sorting. Although color imaging is widely used for quality evaluation of various horticultural commodities, a multispectral vision technique that acquires color and near-infrared (NIR) images simultaneously is a potentially more effective modality for fruit grading, especially for defects, while...
