  1. 1. Pheromone-based mating disruption to control Spodoptera frugiperda in Tanzania: Possibilites and Constraints for smallholders

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Thomas O'Malley; [2024]
    Keywords : pheromone; mating disruption; fall armyworm; Tanzania; smallholder; Spodeptera frugiperda; integrated pest; management;

    Abstract : Despite a growing interest in the use of pheromones as a more sustainable form of pest control, their use remains unstudied in the smallholder context. This paper is one of the first to study their use by small scale Tanzanian maize farmers to control the invasive pest Spodoptera frugiperda (known as fall armyworm). READ MORE

  2. 2. Exploring the Depth-Performance Trade-Off : Applying Torch Pruning to YOLOv8 Models for Semantic Segmentation Tasks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Xinchen Wang; [2024]
    Keywords : Deep Learning; Semantic segmentation; Network optimization; Network pruning; Torch Pruning; YOLOv8; Network Depth; Djup lärning; Semantisk segmentering; Nätverksoptimering; Nätverksbeskärning; Fackelbeskärning; YOLOv8; Nätverksdjup;

    Abstract : In order to comprehend the environments from different aspects, a large variety of computer vision methods are developed to detect objects, classify objects or even segment them semantically. Semantic segmentation is growing in significance due to its broad applications in fields such as robotics, environmental understanding for virtual or augmented reality, and autonomous driving.

    Keywords : Compression; Deep Learning; DNN; Hyperparameters; Optimization; Pruning; Hyperparameter Optimisation; Hyperparameter Tuning;

    Abstract : With the continued growth of deep learning models in terms of size and computational requirements, the need for efficient models for deployment on resource-constrained devices becomes crucial. Structured pruning has emerged as a proven method to speed up models and reduce computational requirements. READ MORE

  4. 4. ANOMALY DETECTION FOR INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS USING COMMODITY HARDWARE

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : John Moberg; Jonathan Widén; [2023]
    Keywords : Computer Vision; Anomaly Detection; Single Board Computer; Embedded systems;

    Abstract : As the Automotive industry is heavily regulated from a quality point of view, excellence in pro-duction is obligatory. Due to the fact that removing human error from humans is impossible, new solutions must be found. READ MORE

  5. 5. The state of social media usage to fight malnutrition among children under the age of five years in Tanzania

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informatik och media

    Author : Debora Mbilinyi; [2023]
    Keywords : social media; nutrition literacy; malnutrition; behavior change communication; social media usage;

    Abstract : This study has evaluated how Tanzania Food and Nutrition Centre (TFNC), a government institution overseeing nutrition, uses social media to enhance the nutrition literacy of caregivers and parents of children under the age of five years. The study contributes to knowledge on how Tanzania’s resource-constrained health sector’s nutrition communication can benefit from social media by answering the following research questions: Which social media platforms and features does TFNC use to share nutrition knowledge pertaining to children under the age of five years? What kinds of nutrition knowledge pertaining to children under the age of five years does TFNC share on social media? How is nutrition knowledge pertaining to children under the age of five years posted on TFNC social media pages packaged? And, how frequently is nutrition knowledge pertaining to children under the age of five years repeated on TFNC social media pages? These questions have been answered from a social-behavioral change communication perspective that has combined the Media Ecology Theory and the Theory of Planned Behavior. READ MORE
