Seed viability is essential to have a homogeneous plant population. The seed industry cannot adopt traditional procedures for seed viability evaluation since they are destructive, time-consuming, and need chemicals. This study aimed to investigate the potential of combining hyperspectral and color image features to differentiate viable and non-viable paddy seeds.

A combination of three-dimensional (3D) and two-dimensional (2D) CNN-based deep learning networks is used to extract the features from each input stream separately. The 3D convolutional blocks are adapted according to the disparity of different directions of epipolar images, and 2D-CNNs are employed to minimize data loss.

The SF algorithm avoids incorrect predictions of the suspect. Health data are continuously monitored and recorded on the ThingSpeak cloud server.

However, it has a low-resolution problem due to the fundamental limitation of the F-number (the aperture stops) by using micro lens array (MLA) and a poor illumination environment. In this paper, a generative adversarial network (GAN)-based super-resolution algorithm is proposed to enhance the resolution where the directional view image is directly fed as input.

It is widely applicable where traditional pen-up and pen-down writing systems are troublesome. Due to the simple writing style, it has a great advantage over the gesture-based system.

Here, a multiple-camera holographic system featuring an efficient depth grid is developed to provide the correct depth cue. Multidepth cameras are used to acquire depth and color information from real scenes, and then to virtually reconstruct point cloud models.
