scholarly journals Krishimitr: A Cloud Computing and Platform for Disease Detection in Agriculture

Automating disease detection is a cornerstone in the journey to achieving sustainable agriculture. We describe a framework utilizing Machine Learning, Cloud Computing and Internet-of-Things which brings experts to farmers, allowing for timely detection of diseases. This innovative and comprehensive framework provides agronomists and farmers with a solution for diagnosing plant diseases. By leveraging modern ICT capabilities, this extensible framework is currently trained for over 15 plant types and more than 51 disease types. Our framework employs a hybrid model combining use of both online and offline resources to provide up-to-date information to farmers even in case of patchy connectivity

Edge data processing represents the new evolution of the Internet and Cloud computing. Its application to the Internet of Things (IoT) is a step towards faster processing of information from sensors for better performance. In automated systems, we have a large number of sensors, whose information needs to be processed in the shortest possible time and acted upon. The paper describes the possibility of applying Artificial Intelligence on Edge devices using the example of finding a parking space for a vehicle, and directing it based on the segment the vehicle belongs to. Algorithm of Machine Learning is used for vehicle classification, which is based on vehicle dimensions.

Plant diseases cause major yield and economic losses. To detect plant disease at early stages, selecting appropriate techniques is imperative as it affects the cost, diagnosis time, and accuracy. This research gives a comprehensive review of various plant disease detection methods based on the images used and processing algorithms applied. It systematically analyzes various traditional machine learning and deep learning algorithms used for processing visible and spectral range images, and comparatively evaluates the work done in literature in terms of datasets used, various image processing techniques employed, models utilized, and efficiency achieved. The study discusses the benefits and restrictions of each method along with the challenges to be addressed for rapid and accurate plant disease detection. Results show that for plant disease detection, deep learning outperforms traditional machine learning algorithms while visible range images are more widely used compared to spectral images.


Now days, Machine learning is considered as the key technique in the field of technologies, such as, Internet of things (IOT), Cloud computing, Big data and Artificial Intelligence etc. As technology enhances, lots of incorrect and redundant data are collected from these fields. To make use of these data for a meaningful purpose, we have to apply mining or classification technique in the real world. In this paper, we have proposed two nobel approaches towards data classification by using supervised learning algorithm

Most of the population of our country are depends on agriculture for their survival. Agriculture plays an important role in our country economy. But since past few years production from agriculture sector is decreasing drastically. Agriculture sector saw a drastic downfall in its productivity from past few years, there are many reasons for this downfall. In this paper we will discuss about past, present and future of agriculture in our country, agricultural policies which are provided by government to improve the growth of agriculture and reasons why we are not able see the growth in agriculture. And also we will see how can we adopt automation into agriculture using various emerging technologies like IoT (Internet of Things), data mining, cloud computing and machine learning and some authors done some quality work previously on this topic we will discuss that also. Here we will see previous work done by various authors which can be useful to increase the productivity of agriculture sector

The interplay between nutrient-induced signaling and metabolism plays an important role in maintaining homeostasis and its malfunction has been implicated in many different human diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, cancer, and neurological disorders. Therefore, unraveling the role of nutrients as signaling molecules and metabolites together with their interconnectivity may provide a deeper understanding of how these conditions occur. Both signaling and metabolism have been extensively studied using various systems biology approaches. However, they are mainly studied individually and in addition, current models lack both the complexity of the dynamics and the effects of the crosstalk in the signaling system. To gain a better understanding of the interconnectivity between nutrient signaling and metabolism in yeast cells, we developed a hybrid model, combining a Boolean module, describing the main pathways of glucose and nitrogen signaling, and an enzyme-constrained model accounting for the central carbon metabolism of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, using a regulatory network as a link. The resulting hybrid model was able to capture a diverse utalization of isoenzymes and to our knowledge outperforms constraint-based models in the prediction of individual enzymes for both respiratory and mixed metabolism. The model showed that during fermentation, enzyme utilization has a major contribution in governing protein allocation, while in low glucose conditions robustness and control are prioritized. In addition, the model was capable of reproducing the regulatory effects that are associated with the Crabtree effect and glucose repression, as well as regulatory effects associated with lifespan increase during caloric restriction. Overall, we show that our hybrid model provides a comprehensive framework for the study of the non-trivial effects of the interplay between signaling and metabolism, suggesting connections between the Snf1 signaling pathways and processes that have been related to chronological lifespan of yeast cells.

Identifying of the plant diseases is essential in prevention of yield and volume losses in agriculture Product. Studies of plant diseases mean studies of visually observable patterns on the plant. Health surveillance and detecting diseases in plants is essential for sustainable development agriculture. It is very difficult to monitor plant diseases manually. It requires a lot of experiences in work, expertise in these field plant diseases and also requires excessive processing time. Therefore; image processing is used to detect plant diseases. Disease detection includes steps such as acquisition, image Pre-processing, image segmentation, feature extraction and Classification. We describe these methods for the detection of plant diseases on the basis of their leaf images; automatic detection of plant disease is done by the image processing and machine learning. The different leaf images of plant disease are collected and feature extracted of the various machine learning methods.

<p>Can we build a machine learning parametrization in a numerical model using sparse and noisy observations?</p><p>In recent years, machine learning (ML) has been proposed to devise data-driven parametrizations of unresolved processes in dynamical numerical models. In most of the cases, ML is trained by coarse-graining high-resolution simulations to provide a dense, unnoisy target state (or even the tendency of the model).</p><p>Our goal is to go beyond the use of high-resolution simulations and train ML-based parametrization using direct data. Furthermore, we intentionally place ourselves in the realistic scenario of noisy and sparse observations.</p><p>The algorithm proposed in this work derives from the algorithm presented by the same authors in https://arxiv.org/abs/2001.01520.The principle is to first apply data assimilation (DA) techniques to estimate the full state of the system from a non-parametrized model, referred hereafter as the physical model. The parametrization term to be estimated is viewed as a model error in the DA system. In a second step, ML is used to define the parametrization, e.g., a predictor of the model error given the state of the system. Finally, the ML system is incorporated within the physical model to produce a hybrid model, combining a physical core with a ML-based parametrization.</p><p>The approach is applied to dynamical systems from low to intermediate complexity. The DA component of the proposed approach relies on an ensemble Kalman filter/smoother while the parametrization is represented by a convolutional neural network.  </p><p>We show that the hybrid model yields better performance than the physical model in terms of both short-term (forecast skill) and long-term (power spectrum, Lyapunov exponents) properties. Sensitivity to the noise and density of observation is also assessed.</p>
