Agricultural land classification is a crucial and demanding task, essential for managing resources and tracking changes in farming activities. Remote sensing (RS) is an excellent technology for monitoring agricultural land and detecting seasonal fluctuations globally. Deep learning models offer promising prospects for crop monitoring. While traditional machine learning methods struggle to capture temporal variations in agricultural land efficiently. This study addresses the challenge of accurately classifying land cover and detecting year-to-year changes using a deep learning (DL)-based approach. The novelty of this research is an integration using a pixel-based deep neural network (PDNN) classifier, which will advance the classification abilities for identifying land cover classes. By comparing images taken over time, the PDNN can help identify different land cover efficiently. The thematic images using the PDNN were derived, and change detection was carried out by adopting a posterior probability space (PPS)-based change detection. The application of the proposed model is demonstrated using the Landsat-9 dataset over Moga District, Punjab, India. Compared to the random forest (RF) and support vector machine (SVM), the PDNN model achieved great performance. While PDNN had an accuracy ranging from 90.6 % to 93.6 %, RF and SVM had lower accuracies, with RF ranging between 86.8 % and 92.2 % and SVM between 88 % and 92.4 %. The PDNN model also excelled in detecting changes in land cover, showing an accuracy between 87.4 % and 90 %, while RF achieved 82.9 %–86.2 % and SVM ranged from 79 % to 83.9 %. The proposed model was adept at capturing changes in agricultural land cover, such as year-to-year variations. The PDNN model demonstrated superior proficiency in capturing seasonal and year-to-year variations in agricultural land cover, effectively identifying subtle transitions in crop cycles. This highlights its potential for long-term agricultural monitoring and precisio

In this paper, we present the results of the MitoEM challenge on mitochondria 3D instance segmentation from electron microscopy images, organized in conjunction with the IEEE-ISBI 2021 conference. Our benchmark dataset consists of two large-scale 3D volumes, one from human and one from rat cortex tissue, which are 3,600 times larger than previously used datasets. At the time of paper submission, 257 participants had registered for the challenge, 14 teams had submitted their results, and six teams participated in the challenge workshop. Here, we present eight top-performing approaches from the challenge participants, along with our own baseline strategies. Posterior to the challenge, annotation errors in the ground truth were corrected without altering the final ranking. Additionally, we present a retrospective evaluation of the scoring system which revealed that (1) the challenge metric was permissive with the false positive predictions and (2) the size-based grouping of instances did not correctly categorize mitochondria of interest. Thus, we propose a new scoring system that better reflects the correctness of the segmentation results. Although several of the top methods are compared favorably to our own baselines, substantial errors remain unsolved for mitochondria with challenging morphologies. Thus, the challenge remains open for submission and automatic evaluation, with all volumes available for download. © 2023, CC BY.

Covalent adaptable networks (CANs) possess unique properties as a result of their internal dynamic bonds, such as self-healing and reprocessing abilities. In this study, we report a thermally responsive C−Se dynamic covalent chemistry (DCC) that relies on the transalkylation exchange between selenonium salts and selenides, which undergo a fast transalkylation reaction in the absence of any catalyst. Additionally, we demonstrate the presence of a dissociative mechanism in the absence of selenide groups. After incorporation of this DCC into selenide-containing polymer materials, it was observed that the cross-linked networks display varying dynamic exchange rates when using different alkylation reagents, suggesting that the reprocessing capacity of selenide-containing materials can be regulated. Also, by incorporating selenonium salts into polymer materials, we observed that the materials exhibited good healing ability at elevated temperatures as well as excellent solvent resistance at ambient temperature. This novel dynamic covalent chemistry thus provides a straightforward method for the healing and reprocessing of selenide-containing materials.

Terahertz (THz) band communication has been widely studied to meet the future demand for ultra-high capacity. In addition, multi-input multi-output (MIMO) technique and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technique with multi-antenna also enable the network to carry more users and provide multiplexing gain. In this paper, we study the maximization of energy efficiency (EE) problem in THz-NOMA-MIMO systems for the first time. And the original optimization problem is divided into user clustering, hybrid precoding and power optimization. Based on channel correlation characteristics, a fast convergence scheme for user clustering in THz-NOMA-MIMO system using enhanced K-means machine learning algorithm is proposed. Considering the power consumption and implementation complexity, the hybrid precoding scheme based on the sub-connection structure is adopted. Considering the fronthaul link capacity constraint, we design a distributed alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) algorithm for power allocation to maximize the EE of THz-NOMA cache-enabled system with imperfect successive interference cancellation (SIC). The simulation results show that the proposed user clustering scheme can achieve faster convergence and higher EE, the design of the hybrid precoding of the sub-connection structure can achieve lower power consumption and power optimization can achieve a higher EE for the THz cache-enabled network.

This paper reviews the NTIRE 2022 challenge on efficient single image super-resolution with focus on the proposed solutions and results. The task of the challenge was to super-resolve an input image with a magnification factor of ×4 based on pairs of low and corresponding high resolution images. The aim was to design a network for single image super-resolution that achieved improvement of efficiency measured according to several metrics including runtime, parameters, FLOPs, activations, and memory consumption while at least maintaining the PSNR of 29.00dB on DIV2K validation set. IMDN is set as the baseline for efficiency measurement. The challenge had 3 tracks including the main track (runtime), sub-track one (model complexity), and sub-track two (overall performance). In the main track, the practical runtime performance of the submissions was evaluated. The rank of the teams were determined directly by the absolute value of the average runtime on the validation set and test set. In sub-track one, the number of parameters and FLOPs were considered. And the individual rankings of the two metrics were summed up to determine a final ranking in this track. In sub-track two, all of the five metrics mentioned in the description of the challenge including runtime, parameter count, FLOPs, activations, and memory consumption were considered. Similar to sub-track one, the rankings of five metrics were summed up to determine a final ranking. The challenge had 303 registered participants, and 43 teams made valid submissions. They gauge the state-of-the-art in efficient single image super-resolution. © 2022, CC BY.

Motion blur is a common photography artifact in dynamic environments that typically comes jointly with the other types of degradation. This paper reviews the NTIRE 2021 Challenge on Image Deblurring. In this challenge report, we describe the challenge specifics and the evaluation results from the 2 competition tracks with the proposed solutions. While both the tracks aim to recover a high-quality clean image from a blurry image, different artifacts are jointly involved. In track 1, the blurry images are in a low resolution while track 2 images are compressed in JPEG format. In each competition, there were 338 and 238 registered participants and in the final testing phase, 18 and 17 teams competed. The winning methods demonstrate the state-of-the-art performance on the image deblurring task with the jointly combined artifacts. © 2021, CC BY-NC-ND.

With advancements in the science of detection and attribution studies, the influence of climate change over many events has now been quantified. Because of the rapidly increasing temperatures, vulnerable populations (adults older than 65 years, and children younger than one year of age) were exposed to 3·7 billion more heatwave days in 2021 than annually in 1986–2005 (indicator 1.1.2), and heat-related deaths increased by 68% between 2000–04 and 2017–21 (indicator 1.1.5), a death toll that was significantly exacerbated by the confluence of the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the local cooling and overall health benefits of urban greenspaces, only 277 (27%) of 1038 global urban centres were at least moderately green in 2021 (indicator 2.2.3), and the number of households with air conditioning increased by 66% from 2000 to 2020, a maladaptive response that worsens the energy crisis and further increases urban heat, air pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions. [...]millions of people do not have access to the energy needed to keep their homes at healthy temperatures, preserve food and medication, and meet the seventh Sustainable Development Goal (to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all). Aggravating this situation even further, governments continue to incentivise fossil fuel production and consumption: 69 (80%) of 86 countries reviewed had net-negative carbon prices (ie, provided a net subsidy to fossil fuels) for a net total of US$400 billion

In this study, the effects of epoxidized natural rubber (ENR-50) as compatibilizer on the properties of Standard Malaysian Rubber/Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (SMR L/EPDM) blend were investigated. Standard Malaysian Rubber/Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer/Epoxidized Natural Rubber (SMR L/EPDM/ENR-50) blends were prepared by two-roll mill with five different compositions (i.e., 80/20/0, 80/20/1, 80/20/3, 80/20/5, 80/20/7 and 80/20/10), which the (SMR L/EPDM) content fixed at 80/20 which is the optimum ratio for (SMR L/EPDM) depending on our previous study. Cure characteristics, mechanical properties studies were performed to determine the compatibility of SMR L/EPDM blends in the presence of ENR-50 as a compatibilizer. The optimum cure characteristics showed by SMR L/EPDM blends with the presence of ENR-50, which lower scorch time t2 and cure time t90 and increase the cure rate index CRI. In addition, SMR L/EPDM blends with the presence of ENR-50 have improved the physical properties such as swelling test, crosslink density and hardness test.

Every material has its own dielectric properties and it is also the same for water. In this research, dielectric properties measurement on water will be done to examine the water quality of drinking water whether it is safe to drink or not. Water quality in Malaysia, as well as access to water in general, is a major problem. The primary pollutants present in the water are oils, rubbish, suspended solids, sewage and toxic substances. These are consequences of untreated or only partially treated sewage caused by human activities. Thus, water quality in Malaysia is currently of some concern. The normal drinking water pH range mentioned in World Health Organization (WHO) and National Drinking Water Quality Standards (NDWQS) guidelines is between 6.5 and 8.5. The water may contain some residue even though the pH is in the range of 6 to 7.5 so it does not prove that the water is safe enough for drinking purpose. Thereby, the analysis about the water quality using the specific measuring instruments need to carry out to prove that the water in neutral pH may not be safe to drink as the pH does not prove the content of the water as clearly as dielectric properties. High Temperature Coaxial Probe as the dielectric properties measurement sensor will be used to provide better information compare to pH. The measurement parameters that had been used to determine the water quality is the dielectric constant. The results obtained from both pH and dielectric properties measurement values are been analyzed and compared and it shows that pH value for clean and contaminated water is at almost similar values while dielectric properties results show different for both clean and contaminated water.
