A hybrid neural model (HNM) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) was used to optimize ethanol production by a flocculating yeast, grown on cashew apple juice. HNM was obtained by combining artificial neural network (ANN), which predicted reaction sp...
Apple tree diseases have perplexed orchard farmers for several years. At present, numerous studies have investigated deep learning for fruit and vegetable crop disease detection. Because of the complexity and variety of apple leaf veins and the diffi...
The captan residues in apple juice were detected by fluorescence spectrometry, and the content level of captan was predicted based on a genetic algorithm and support vector machines (GA-SVMs). According to the captan concentration in apple juice, the...
Apples are one of the most widely planted fruits in the world, with an extremely high annual production. Several issues should be addressed to avoid the damaging of samples during the quality grading process of apples (e.g., the long detection period...
Understanding the growth status of fruits can enable precise growth management and improve the product quality. Previous studies have rarely used deep learning to observe changes over time, and manual annotation is required to detect hidden regions o...

In this work, visible and near-infrared 'point' (Vis-NIR) spectroscopy and hyperspectral imaging (Vis-NIR-HSI) techniques were applied on three different apple cultivars to compare their firmness prediction performances based on a large intra-variabi...
Patulin, a toxic mycotoxin, can contaminate apple-derived products. The FDA has established an action level of 50 ppb (ng/g) for patulin in apple juice and apple juice products. To effectively monitor this mycotoxin, there is a need for adequate anal...
BACKGROUND: Crop diseases can lead to significant yield losses and food shortages if not promptly identified and managed by farmers. With the advancements in convolutional neural networks (CNN) and the widespread availability of smartphones, automate...
Epigenetic changes serve as a cellular memory for cumulative cold recognition in both herbaceous and tree species, including bud dormancy. However, most studies have discussed predicted chromatin structure with respect to histone marks. In the presen...
