Abstract

The field of smart agriculture is ranked among the top areas that uses the internet of things (IoT), whose goal is to increase the quantity and quality of agricultural productivity. The aim of this work is to realize a new device that will be cost-effective, reliable, and autonomous using a solar panel to provide electricity in large-scale agricultural fields, ESP32 to interconnect IoT sensors and the long range (LoRa) data transmission protocol to guarantee connectivity in places where there is no internet, whose objective is to monitor and irrigate agricultural fields only when there is a need for water. The data received by the sensors is sent to mobile app users via the Blynk cloud. The performance of our new approach is measured in terms of energy savings. This new model of irrigation and smart monitoring will improve the efficiency of farming techniques.

Abstract

The internet of things (IoT) connects physical objects through sensors, software, and communication technologies, enabling efficient data collection and sharing. This interconnection promotes automation, real-time monitoring, and improved decision-making across various sectors. In agriculture, the integration of IoT with artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing resource management by providing farmers with real-time information on crop health, climate conditions, and soil quality. This paper explores how IoT and AI are transforming traditional agricultural practices to enhance both efficiency and sustainability. Through an in-depth analysis of existing literature and practical applications in the sector, this study identifies significant advancements in crop management, reduction of losses, and resource optimization. Additionally, it highlights persistent challenges such as data security and interoperability. The aim is to address these challenges and propose innovative solutions to optimize agricultural processes. The results indicate that while IoT and AI offer substantial benefits, further advancements and solutions are needed to fully leverage these technologies for sustainable agricultural development.

Abstract

Recognition problems, including object detection, scene understanding, and fine-grained categorisation, are popular subjects in computer vision. However, it is challenging to model spatial coherence and contextual dependencies in response to changes in configurations. Human Vs computers' ability in perception-although convolutional neural networks (CNNs) do well in the extraction of features, they have high dependence on local receptive fields and are not able to capture long-range spatial relationships and high-order interactions. To alleviate the shortcomings of the current approaches, we present an enhanced hybrid CNNs two dimensional hidden Markov model (2D-HMM) framework that combines 2D-HMM, Markov random fields (MRF) and variational autoencoders (VAEs) into a single model. The model employs 2D-HMMs for pairwise spatial modelling, MRFs for higher order context, and VAEs for stable latent representation learning. Tested on the MNIST and CIFAR-10 benchmark datasets, our approach consistently outperforms the state-of-the-art performance by 98.2% and 89.5%, respectively, with high robustness to noise and occlusion. Results from ablation studies further show that MRFs improve recall by 1.6% and VAEs improve precision by 1.3%, suggesting that they complement each other sufficiently with respect to overall testing performance. This work unifies deep learning and probabilistic graphical models, leading to more interpretable, scalable, and accurate recognition systems.
