Recently, many convolutional networks have been built to fuse a low spatial resolution (LR) hyperspectral image (HSI) and a high spatial resolution (HR) multispectral image (MSI) to obtain HR HSIs. However, most deep learning-based methods are supervised methods, which require sufficient HR HSIs for supervised training. Collecting plenty of HR HSIs is laborious and time-consuming. In this paper, a self-supervised spectral-spatial residual network (SSRN) is proposed to alleviate dependence on a mass of HR HSIs. In SSRN, the fusion of HR MSIs and LR HSIs is considered a pixel-wise spectral mapping problem. Firstly, this paper assumes that the spectral mapping between HR MSIs and HR HSIs can be approximated by the spectral mapping between LR MSIs (derived from HR MSIs) and LR HSIs. Secondly, the spectral mapping between LR MSIs and LR HSIs is explored by SSRN. Finally, a self-supervised fine-tuning strategy is proposed to transfer the learned spectral mapping to generate HR HSIs. SSRN does not require HR HSIs as the supervised information in training. Simulated and real hyperspectral databases are utilized to verify the performance of SSRN.

The food safety security (FSS) concept is perceived as an early warning system for minimizing food safety (FS) breaches, and it functions in conjunction with existing FS measures. Essentially, the function of FS and FSS measures can be visualized in two parts: (i) the FS preventive measures as actions taken at the stem level, and (ii) the FSS interventions as actions taken at the root level, to enhance the impact of the implemented safety steps. In practice, along with FS, FSS also draws its support from (i) legislative directives and regulatory measures for enforcing verifiable, timely, and effective compliance; (ii) measurement systems in place for sustained quality assurance; and (iii) shared responsibility to ensure cohesion among all the stakeholders namely, policy makers, regulators, food producers, processors and distributors, and consumers. However, the functional framework of FSS differs from that of FS by way of: (i) retooling the vulnerable segments of the preventive features of existing FS measures; (ii) fine-tuning response systems to efficiently preempt the FS breaches; (iii) building a long-term nutrient and toxicant surveillance network based on validated measurement systems functioning in real time; (iv) focusing on crisp, clear, and correct communication that resonates among all the stakeholders; and (v) developing inter-disciplinary human resources to meet ever-increasing FS challenges. Important determinants of FSS include: (i) strengthening international dialogue for refining regulatory reforms and addressing emerging risks; (ii) developing innovative and strategic action points for intervention {in addition to Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) procedures]; and (iii) introducing additional science-based tools such as metrology-based measurement systems.

Dengue is unquestionably one of the biggest health concerns in India and for many other developing countries. Unfortunately, many people have lost their lives because of it. Every year, approximately 390 million dengue infections occur around the world among which 500,000 people are seriously infected and 25,000 people have died annually. Many factors could cause dengue such as temperature, humidity, precipitation, inadequate public health, and many others. In this paper, we are proposing a method to perform predictive analytics on dengue’s dataset using KNN: a machine-learning algorithm. This analysis would help in the prediction of future cases and we could save the lives of many.

Packaging manufacturers are challenged to achieve consistent strength targets and maximize production while reducing costs through smarter fiber utilization, chemical optimization, energy reduction, and more. With innovative instrumentation readily accessible, mills are collecting vast amounts of data that provide them with ever increasing visibility into their processes. Turning this visibility into actionable insight is key to successfully exceeding customer expectations and reducing costs. Predictive analytics supported by machine learning can provide real-time quality measures that remain robust and accurate in the face of changing machine conditions. These adaptive quality “soft sensors” allow for more informed, on-the-fly process changes; fast change detection; and process control optimization without requiring periodic model tuning. The use of predictive modeling in the paper industry has increased in recent years; however, little attention has been given to packaging finished quality. The use of machine learning to maintain prediction relevancy under everchanging machine conditions is novel. In this paper, we demonstrate the process of establishing real-time, adaptive quality predictions in an industry focused on reel-to-reel quality control, and we discuss the value created through the availability and use of real-time critical quality.


“We regard the recent science –based consensual reports that climate change is, to a large extend, caused by human activities that emit green houses as tenable, Such activities range from air traffic, with a global reach over industrial belts and urban conglomerations to local small, scale energy use for heating homes and mowing lawns. This means that effective climate strategies inevitably also require action all the way from global to local levels. Since the majority of those activities originate at the local level and involve individual action, however, climate strategies must literally begin at home to hit home.”

Trotz deutlicher technologischer Fortschritte wird Predictive Analytics in der Praxis noch immer nur selten für die finanzielle Prognose eingesetzt. Notwendig für eine erfolgreiche Anwendung ist ein ganzheitlicher Ansatz bei der Implementierung, der über die rein technisch „richtige“ Anwendung hinausgeht. Aus der Analyse verschiedener Implementierungsprojekte wurden daher die Erfolgsfaktoren für Predictive Analytics Projekte abgeleitet und in einem ganzheitlichen Konzept zusammengefasst. Damit können Verbesserungen in den Bereichen Prognosegenauigkeit, Ressourceneinsatz und Steuerungswirkung realisiert werden.
