Fruit Ripeness Assertion Using Deep Learning
The agricultural industry is one of the most important sectors in any country because it contributes to so many different areas. In comparison to other emerging countries, however, farmers and agriculture fields in some countries have limited technology and reach. Agricultural and allied sector operations employ 54.6 percent of the total workforce and contribute for 17.1 percent of the country's Gross Value Added (GVA) in 2017-18, according to India Census 2011. However, Agricultureâs contribution to GVA continues decline.[7] This agricultural field is obviously a challenging field to the digital technology and this âsmart fruit ripening assertionâ model considerably gives the high-quality and accurate results by utilizing the deep learning techniques such as YoloV3 which is a deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). This model's main focus is on the design and implementation of practical tasks, such as predicting the ripening stages of various types of fruits based on form, colour, and texture by combining and comparing various ML methods, OpenCV, and Internet of Things (IoT), thereby providing accurate prediction of ripening stages of fruits with the aid of a computer application which results introduction of large-scale manpower and saves time
Genomic clustering analysis identifies molecular subtypes of thymic epithelial tumors independent of World Health Organization histologic type
Further characterization of thymic epithelial tumors (TETs) is needed. Genomic information from 102 evaluable TETs from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset and from the IU-TAB-1 cell line (type AB thymoma) underwent clustering analysis to identify molecular subtypes of TETs. Six novel molecular subtypes (TH1-TH6) of TETs from the TCGA were identified, and there was no association with WHO histologic subtype. The IU-TAB-1 cell line clustered into the TH4 molecular subtype and in vitro testing of candidate therapeutics was performed. The IU-TAB-1 cell line was noted to be resistant to everolimus (mTORC1 inhibitor) and sensitive to nelfinavir (AKT1 inhibitor) across the endpoints measured. Sensitivity to nelfinavir was due to the IU-TAB-1 cell lineâs gain-of function (GOF) mutation in PIK3CA and amplification of genes observed from array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), including AURKA, ERBB2, KIT, PDGFRA and PDGFB, that are known upregulate AKT, while resistance to everolimus was primarily driven by upregulation of downstream signaling of KIT, PDGFRA and PDGFB in the presence of mTORC1 inhibition. We present a novel molecular classification of TETs independent of WHO histologic subtype, which may be used for preclinical validation studies of potential candidate therapeutics of interest for this rare disease
Directional control of weakly localized Raman from a random network of fractal nanowires
Disordered optical media are an emerging class of materials capable of
strongly scattering light. Their study is relevant to investigate transport
phenomena and for applications in imaging, sensing and energy storage. While
such materials can be used to generate coherent light, their directional
emission is typically hampered by their very multiple scattering nature. Here,
we tune the out-of-plane directionality of coherent Raman light scattered by a
fractal network of silicon nanowires. By visualizing Rayleigh scattering,
photoluminescence and weakly localized Raman light from the random network of
nanowires via real-space microscopy and Fourier imaging, we gain insight on the
light transport mechanisms responsible for the material's inelastic coherent
signal and for its directionality. The possibility of visualizing and
manipulating directional coherent light in such networks of nanowires opens
venues for fundamental studies of light propagation in disordered media as well
as for the development of next generation optical devices based on disordered
structures, inclusive of sensors, light sources and optical switches
