2. 1. Cassava Processing: Safety and Protein Fortification

   Author : Lucas Tivana; Livsmedelsteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cassava; Cyanogenic glycosides; aquacyano-cobyrinic acid; processing; amylose; amylopectin; protein; texture;

   Abstract : Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is an important and cheap source of carbohydrate in tropical regions, particularly in Sub-Sahara Africa. Cassava as a human food is a good source of energy as it has a comparable high energy density of about 610 kJ/100 g fresh root. READ MORE

4. 2. Data driven crop disease modeling

   Author : Priyamvada Shankar; Marcus Liwicki; Foteini Liwicki; Lili Jiang; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Crop Disease Prediction; Precision Agriculture; Digital Farming; Artificial Intelligence; Machine learning; Maskininlärning; Machine Learning;

   Abstract : The concept of precision farming deals with the creation and use of data from machinery and sensors on and off the field to optimize resources and sustainably intensify food production to keep up with increasing demand. However, in the face of a growing amount of data being collected, smarter data processing and analysis techniques are needed and have prompted the evaluation and incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques for multiple use cases right from seeding to harvesting.

5. 3. Hyperspectral Image Generation, Processing and Analysis

   Author : Hamed Hamid Muhammed; Ewert Bengtsson; Tommy Lindell; Erkki Oja; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bildanalys; hyperspectral imaging; colour filter mosaics; remote sensing; crop reflectance; surface water quality; disease severity; plant density; linear system of equations; waste water detection; chlorophyll a; suspended paticulate matter; weighted fixed neural networks; weighted incremental neural networks; camera spectrometer; Bildanalys; Image analysis; Bildanalys;

   Abstract : Hyperspectral reflectance data are utilised in many applications, where measured data are processed and converted into physical, chemical and/or biological properties of the target objects and/or processes being studied. It has been proven that crop reflectance data can be used to detect, characterise and quantify disease severity and plant density. READ MORE

7. 5. On processing of thermoplastic starch

   Author : Mats Thunwall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; amylose; starch; extrusion; thermoplastic starch;

   Abstract : Starch is a biodegradable material produced in many different crop plants. Since it is biodegradable, inexpensive, generally has good barrier properties and comes from a renewable source it would be an ideal material to use in e.g. packaging applications. READ MORE
