Cervical cancer is caused by the growth of abnormal cells in the cervix’s lining. Human papillomavirus (HPV), a sexually transmitted infection, plays a role in most cervical cancers. Therefore, cervical cancer can be avoided by having regular screenings and being vaccinated against HPV infection. The term pap-smear refers to human cell samples stained using the Papanicolaou method. The Papanicolaou method is used to detect precancerous cell changes before they become invasive cancer. The smear cell image is composed of a nucleus and cytoplasm. Cancer prevalence is determined by the shape and structure of the nucleus. Therefore, the segmentation of the nucleus is an essential step in detecting cancer. However, overlapping, poor contrast, uneven staining, and other factors make cervical nucleus segmentation difficult. This paper proposes a new segmentation method for the cervical nucleus using digital image processing. Our proposed method used a median filter to remove noise and a non-linear contrast stretching to enhance the Pap smear images. Then, we used Bradley thresholding for the segmented cervical nucleus. The main impact of this paper will assist doctors in diagnosing cervical cancer based on Pap smear images and increase the accuracy percentages compared to the conventional method.

The intention of this project is to develop a smart irrigation and water management system for conventional farming. The project is conducted mainly to improve the irrigation scheduling and also to solve the over watering and under watering issues in traditional irrigation system. These problems can be solved by implementing soil moisture sensor as a smart component in the irrigation system. Smart irrigation system with the implementation of sensory-based system will be able to provide a proper irrigation scheduling, by monitoring the soil and weather condition of the farm. In this project, the sensory system consists of soil moisture sensor, temperature sensor and light intensity sensor, which basically used to monitor soil moisture level, temperature level, and light intensity level at the separate test area. Arduino Mega 2560 microcontroller will process the data from these sensors and a proper irrigation scheduling will be developed based on the data collected. Type of irrigation system that been used in this project is a sprinkler system because it has high uniformity of water distribution to the plant, which able to spread water efficiency and further optimize the water usage during irrigation process. Ultrasonic sensor is also implemented in the system to measure the amount of water used in each irrigation process performed. An offline data storage will be implemented in this project using a micro SD card module, which all the essential information such as sensory system readings and the amount of water used will be recorded and stored into a micro SD card. Thus, it allows user to monitor their farm's condition, and also gives a better view on what is really happening at their farm.
