Assessment of the effects of the biotic and abiotic harmful factors on the amount of industrial wood production with deep learning.

Environmental science and pollution research international
The protection and sustainability of forest assets is possible with planned production of forest products to lead to minimum loss. One of the products obtained from forests is the industrial wood, which is the most important raw material for many sec...

Automatic Segmentation of Standing Trees from Forest Images Based on Deep Learning.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Semantic segmentation of standing trees is important to obtain factors of standing trees from images automatically and effectively. Aiming at the accurate segmentation of multiple standing trees in complex backgrounds, some traditional methods have s...

Evaluating the Forest Ecosystem through a Semi-Autonomous Quadruped Robot and a Hexacopter UAV.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Accurate and timely monitoring is imperative to the resilience of forests for economic growth and climate regulation. In the UK, forest management depends on citizen science to perform tedious and time-consuming data collection tasks. In this study, ...

FractureNet: A 3D Convolutional Neural Network Based on the Architecture of m-Ary Tree for Fracture Type Identification.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
To address the problem of automatic identification of fine-grained fracture types, in this paper, we propose a novel framework using 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) to learn fracture features from voxelized bone models which are obtained by est...

Tree Trunk Recognition in Orchard Autonomous Operations under Different Light Conditions Using a Thermal Camera and Faster R-CNN.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In an orchard automation process, a current challenge is to recognize natural landmarks and tree trunks to localize intelligent robots. To overcome low-light conditions and global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signal interruptions under a dense ...

Machine Learning Predicts Biogeochemistry from Microbial Community Structure in a Complex Model System.

Microbiology spectrum
Microbial community structure is influenced by the environment and in turn exerts control on many environmental parameters. We applied this concept in a bioreactor study to test whether microbial community structure contains information sufficient to...

Monitoring Illegal Tree Cutting through Ultra-Low-Power Smart IoT Devices.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Forests play a fundamental role in preserving the environment and fighting global warming. Unfortunately, they are continuously reduced by human interventions such as deforestation, fires, etc. This paper proposes and evaluates a framework for automa...

Combining novel technologies with interdisciplinary basic research to enhance horticultural crops.

The Plant journal : for cell and molecular biology
Horticultural crops mainly include fruits, vegetables, ornamental trees and flowers, and tea trees (Melaleuca alternifolia). They produce a variety of nutrients for the daily human diet in addition to the nutrition provided by staple crops, and some ...

Identifying of Quercus vulcanica and Q. frainetto growing in different environments through deep learning analysis.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Quercus is one of the important elements of forests worldwide. But the diagnosis of the species in this genus in particular using leaves is pretty challenging due to the presence of natural hybrids and phenotypically plastic trait expression. In this...

Characterizing and forecasting the responses of tropical forest leaf phenology to El Nino by machine learning algorithms.

PloS one
Climate change and global warming have serious adverse impacts on tropical forests. In particular, climate change may induce changes in leaf phenology. However, in tropical dry forests where tree diversity is high, species responses to climate change...
