The widespread use of pesticides in agriculture poses food safety and environmental risks, highlighting the need for rapid detection techniques to mitigate contamination. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) coupled with machine learning provides a powerful approach for the detection and quantification of multiple pesticides in agricultural products. This study introduces the SERSFormer-2.

This study identifies the most suitable catholyte for the electrochemical HI decomposition process, an emerging single-step alternative to the conventional multistep HI section of the I-S thermochemical cycle for hydrogen production. Four catholytes, HO, HPO, HSO, and HI, were shortlisted based on compatibility with the I-S cycle and ability to support the hydrogen evolution. Polarization studies in a two-compartment electrochemical cell revealed a similar order of onset potentials for the electrochemical HI decomposition across all four catholyte electrolytes.

Machine Learning (ML) techniques require novel computer programming skills along with clinical domain knowledge to produce a useful model. We demonstrate the use of a cloud-based ML tool that does not require any programming expertise to develop, validate and deploy a prognostic model for Intracerebral Haemorrhage (ICH). The data of patients admitted with Spontaneous Intracerebral haemorrhage from January 2015 to December 2019 was accessed from our prospectively maintained hospital stroke registry.

Article Synopsis
  • Timely crop mapping is essential for food security and environmental policies, using satellite remote sensing to monitor crop types and water usage on a large scale.
  • High-resolution images from the Sentinel-2 satellite and software like SNAP were used to classify crops in Uttarakhand, India, with ground truth data collected via an app.
  • This study is the first to estimate cropping intensity in the area using geospatial technology, finding significant areas for rice, sugarcane, pea, wheat, and mustard, with a Multiple Cropping Index of 174.4%.

Background: Sepsis is a global health problem with high morbidity and mortality. Low- and middle-income countries have a higher incidence and poorer outcome with sepsis. Large epidemiological studies in sepsis using Sepsis-3 criteria, addressing the process of care and deriving predictors of mortality are scarce in India.
