This study develops tomato disease detection methods based on deep convolutional neural networks and object detection models. Two different models, Faster R-CNN and Mask R-CNN, are used in these methods, where Faster R-CNN is used to identify the typ...
Prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer in the male. Epidemiological studies have associated increased cancer incidence with reduced consumption of fruit and vegetables. This study was aimed to investigate the influence of dwarf pomegranat...
Bushfires are becoming more frequent and intensive due to changing climate. Those that occur close to vineyards can cause smoke contamination of grapevines and grapes, which can affect wines, producing smoke-taint. At present, there are no available ...
Pre-harvest fruit yield estimation is useful to guide harvesting and marketing resourcing, but machine vision estimates based on a single view from each side of the tree ("dual-view") underestimates the fruit yield as fruit can be hidden from view. ...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the lethal effect of a methanolic extract (ME) from fruits against eggs and infective larvae. The anthelmintic activity was assessed using the egg hatching inhibition assay (EHI) and the mortality test. The ME...

In this study, we evaluated the performance of a large-scale decontamination system based on a washing process in combination with pulsed light (PL) exposure and HO/chlorine. In order to identify optimum processing condition, we first evaluated the e...
The analysis and identification of different attributes of produce such as taxonomy, vendor, and organic nature is vital to verifying product authenticity in a distribution network. Though a variety of analysis techniques have been studied in the pas...
A method using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD) was applied after extraction with acidified methanol, to determine 12 bioactive phenolic compounds in the peel and pulp of the mango fruit (Man...
