Machine learning approach for automatic recognition of tomato-pollinating bees based on their buzzing-sounds.
PLoS computational biology
Sep 16, 2021
Bee-mediated pollination greatly increases the size and weight of tomato fruits. Therefore, distinguishing between the local set of bees-those that are efficient pollinators-is essential to improve the economic returns for farmers. To achieve this, i...
Can plants fool artificial intelligence? Using machine learning to compare between bee orchids and bees.
Plant signaling & behavior
Jun 20, 2021
Bee orchids have long been an excellent example of how dishonest signal works in plant-animal interaction. Many studies compared the flower structures that resemble female bees, leading toward pseudo-copulation of the male bees on the flower. Using M...
Assessing the potential for deep learning and computer vision to identify bumble bee species from images.
Scientific reports
Apr 7, 2021
Pollinators are undergoing a global decline. Although vital to pollinator conservation and ecological research, species-level identification is expensive, time consuming, and requires specialized taxonomic training. However, deep learning and compute...
Pollen analysis using multispectral imaging flow cytometry and deep learning.
The New phytologist
Sep 22, 2020
Pollen identification and quantification are crucial but challenging tasks in addressing a variety of evolutionary and ecological questions (pollination, paleobotany), but also for other fields of research (e.g. allergology, honey analysis or forensi...
An Amazon stingless bee foraging activity predicted using recurrent artificial neural networks and attribute selection.
Scientific reports
Jan 8, 2020
Bees play a key role in pollination of crops and in diverse ecosystems. There have been multiple reports in recent years illustrating bee population declines worldwide. The search for more accurate forecast models can aid both in the understanding of...
Robotic bees for crop pollination: Why drones cannot replace biodiversity.
The Science of the total environment
Jun 14, 2018
The notion that robotic crop pollination will solve the decline in pollinators has gained wide popularity recently (Fig. 1), and in March 2018 Walmart filed a patent for autonomous robot bees. However, w present six arguments showing that this is a t...
Modified Global Flower Pollination Algorithm and its Application for Optimization Problems.
Interdisciplinary sciences, computational life sciences
Mar 28, 2018
Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA) has increasingly attracted researchers' attention in the computational intelligence field. This is due to its simplicity and efficiency in searching for global optimality of many optimization problems. However, ther...
Honey bee hairs and pollenkitt are essential for pollen capture and removal.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Mar 23, 2017
While insect grooming has been observed and documented for over one hundred years, we present the first quantitative analysis of this highly dynamic process. Pollinating insects, like honey bees, purposely cover themselves with millions of pollen par...
Averting robo-bees: why free-flying robotic bees are a bad idea.
Emerging topics in life sciences
Nov 27, 2019
Food security and the sustainability of native ecosystems depends on plant-insect interactions in countless ways. Recently reported rapid and immense declines in insect numbers due to climate change, the use of pesticides and herbicides, the introduc...
