Maize yield predictive models and mobile-based decision support system for smallholder farmers in Africa (2022)
Presentation / Conference
Olisah, C., Smith, L. N., & Smith, M. L. (2022, July). Maize yield predictive models and mobile-based decision support system for smallholder farmers in Africa. Paper presented at 17th International Conference on Machine Learning and Data Mining MLDM 2022, New York, USA

Existing machine learning models for crop yield prediction model environmental data on the assumption that soil variables are unaffected by weather variables and therefore learn their intrinsic features independently. If the focus of crop yield predi... Read More about Maize yield predictive models and mobile-based decision support system for smallholder farmers in Africa.

Diabetes mellitus prediction and diagnosis from a data preprocessing and machine learning perspective (2022)
Journal Article
Olisah, C. C., Smith, L., & Smith, M. (2022). Diabetes mellitus prediction and diagnosis from a data preprocessing and machine learning perspective. Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 220, Article 106773. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cmpb.2022.106773

Background and Objective: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia, which results from the inadequacy of the body to secrete and respond to insulin. If not properly managed or diagnosed on time, diabetes can pose a ris... Read More about Diabetes mellitus prediction and diagnosis from a data preprocessing and machine learning perspective.

Towards machine vision for insect welfare monitoring and behavioural insights (2022)
Journal Article
Hansen, M. F., Oparaeke, A., Gallagher, R., Karimi, A., Tariq, F., & Smith, M. L. (2022). Towards machine vision for insect welfare monitoring and behavioural insights. Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 9, Article 835529. https://doi.org/10.3389/fvets.2022.835529

Machine vision has demonstrated its usefulness in the livestock industry in terms of improving welfare in such areas as lameness detection and body condition scoring in dairy cattle. In this article, we present some promising results of applying stat... Read More about Towards machine vision for insect welfare monitoring and behavioural insights.

Eye centre localisation with convolutional neural networks in high- and low-resolution images (2022)
Journal Article
Zhang, W., & Smith, M. L. (2022). Eye centre localisation with convolutional neural networks in high- and low-resolution images. Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence, 13375 LNCS, 373-384. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-10522-7_26

Eye centre localisation is critical to eye tracking systems of various forms and with applications in variety of disciplines. An active eye tracking approach can achieve a high accuracy by leveraging active illumination to gain an enhanced contrast o...
