• Abstract: A method to efficiently and quantitatively study the delivery of a pesticide-surfactant formulation in water solution over plants leaves is presented. Instead of measuring the contact angle, the surface of the leaves wet area is used as key parameter. To this goal, a deep learning model has been trained and tested, to automatically measure the surface of area wet with water solution over cucumber leaves, processing the frames of video footage. We have individuated an existing deep learning model, reported in literature for other applications, and we have applied it to this different task. We present the measurement technique, some details of the deep learning model, its training procedure and its image segmentation performance. Finally, we report the results of the wet areas surface measurement as a function of the concentration of a surfactant in the pesticide solution.

Its foundation is laid by a Bayesian computation in which the geological domain likelihood given the chemistry, p(g|c) plays a similar role to p(y(c)|g.

  The diagnosis process of colorectal cancer mainly focuses on the localization and characterization of abnormal growths in the colon tissue known as polyps. Despite recent advances in deep object localization, the localization of polyps remains challenging due to the similarities between tissues, and the high level of artifacts. Recent studies have shown the negative impact of the presence of artifacts in the polyp detection task, and have started to take them into account within the training process.
