Model updating strategy study about sex identification of silkworm pupae using transfer learning and NIR spectroscopy.

Spectrochimica acta. Part A, Molecular and biomolecular spectroscopy
This paper proposes a novel model updating strategy named SilkwormNet for the first time to address the sex discrimination problem of silkworm pupae with new species. SilkwormNet integrates a ResNet block, a multi-head attention mechanism, and a Sche...

A novel method for online sex sorting of silkworm pupae (Bombyx mori) using computer vision combined with deep learning.

Journal of the science of food and agriculture
BACKGROUND: Silkworm pupae (SP), the pupal stage of an edible insect, have strong potential in the food, medicine, and cosmetic industries. Sex sorting is essential to enhance nutritional content and genetic traits in SP crossbreeding but it remains ...

Deep learning reveals a damage signalling hierarchy that coordinates different cell behaviours driving wound re-epithelialisation.

Development (Cambridge, England)
One of the key tissue movements driving closure of a wound is re-epithelialisation. Earlier wound healing studies describe the dynamic cell behaviours that contribute to wound re-epithelialisation, including cell division, cell shape changes and cell...

Combining spectrum and machine learning algorithms to predict the weathering time of empty puparia of Sarcophaga peregrine (Diptera: Sarcophagidae).

Forensic science international
The weathering time of empty puparia could be important in predicting the minimum postmortem interval (PMImin). As corpse decomposition progresses to the skeletal stage, empty puparia often remain the sole evidence of fly activity at the scene. In th...

Direct Analysis in Real Time-Mass Spectrometry and Kohonen Artificial Neural Networks for Species Identification of Larva, Pupa and Adult Life Stages of Carrion Insects.

Analytical chemistry
Species determination of the various life stages of flies (Order: Diptera) is challenging, particularly for the immature forms, because analogous life stages of different species are difficult to differentiate based on morphological features alone. I...

Assessing Mosquito Breeding Sites and Abundance Using An Unmanned Aircraft.

Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association
An unmanned aircraft system (UAS; i.e., drone) with an attached multispectral camera was used to quantify accumulated surface water on a 0.54-km tidal marsh that abuts San Francisco Bay, CA, USA. The results of the survey showed unequal accumulation ...
