Estimation of the amount of pear pollen based on flowering stage detection using deep learning.

Scientific reports
Pear pollination is performed by artificial pollination because the pollination rate through insect pollination is not stable. Pollen must be collected to secure sufficient pollen for artificial pollination. However, recently, collecting sufficient a...

Local spatiotemporal dynamics of particulate matter and oak pollen measured by machine learning aided optical particle counters.

The Science of the total environment
Conventional techniques for monitoring pollen currently have significant limitations in terms of labour, cost and the spatiotemporal resolution that can be achieved. Pollen monitoring networks across the world are generally sparse and are not able to...

Identifying influence factors and thresholds of the next day's pollen concentration in different seasons using interpretable machine learning.

The Science of the total environment
The prevalence of pollen allergies is a pressing global issue, with projections suggesting that half of the world's population will be affected by 2050 according to the estimation of the World Health Organization (WHO). Accurately forecasting pollen ...

Pollen identification through convolutional neural networks: First application on a full fossil pollen sequence.

PloS one
The automation of pollen identification has seen vast improvements in the past years, with Convolutional Neural Networks coming out as the preferred tool to train models. Still, only a small portion of works published on the matter address the identi...

Harnessing artificial intelligence for analysing the impacts of nectar and pollen feeding in conservation biological control.

Current opinion in insect science
Plant-derived foods, such as nectar and pollen, have garnered substantial research attention due to their potential to support natural enemies of pests. This review is a pioneering exploration of the potential for artificial intelligence approaches t...

A deep learning LSTM-based approach for forecasting annual pollen curves: Olea and Urticaceae pollen types as a case study.

Computers in biology and medicine
Airborne pollen can trigger allergic rhinitis and other respiratory diseases in the synthesised population, which makes it one of the most relevant biological contaminants. Therefore, implementing accurate forecast systems is a priority for public he...

Deductive automated pollen classification in environmental samples via exploratory deep learning and imaging flow cytometry.

The New phytologist
Pollen and tracheophyte spores are ubiquitous environmental indicators at local and global scales. Palynology is typically performed manually by microscopic analysis; a specialised and time-consuming task limited in taxonomical precision and sampling...

Explainable AI for unveiling deep learning pollen classification model based on fusion of scattered light patterns and fluorescence spectroscopy.

Scientific reports
Pollen monitoring have become data-intensive in recent years as real-time detectors are deployed to classify airborne pollen grains. Machine learning models with a focus on deep learning, have an essential role in the pollen classification task. With...

Virtual Impactor-Based Label-Free Pollen Detection using Holography and Deep Learning.

ACS sensors
Exposure to bio-aerosols such as pollen can lead to adverse health effects. There is a need for a portable and cost-effective device for long-term monitoring and quantification of various types of pollen. To address this need, we present a mobile and...

Alternaria spore exposure in Bavaria, Germany, measured using artificial intelligence algorithms in a network of BAA500 automatic pollen monitors.

The Science of the total environment
Although Alternaria spores are well-known allergenic fungal spores, automatic bioaerosol recognition systems have not been trained to recognize these particles until now. Here we report the development of a new algorithm able to classify Alternaria s...
