Mosquitoes are present in virtually every nation worldwide, acting as both a vector for many serious pathogens, and as a nuisance because of their blood-feeding behaviours. As a principle of Integrated Mosquito Management ...
3D Convolutional Neural Networks for Solving Complex Digital Agriculture and Medical Imaging Problems
(University of Winnipe, 2022-06)
3D signals have become widely popular in view of the advantage they provide via 3D representations of data by employing a third spatial or temporal dimension to extend 2D signals. Predominantly, 3D signals contain details ...
Developing Criteria to Prioritize Rapid Removal of American Elm Trees Infected with Dutch Elm Disease
(University of Winnipeg, 2021-10)
During late summer and early fall in Manitoba, adult native elm bark beetles (NEBB) that carry Dutch Elm Disease (DED) emerge from brood galleries in the canopy and upper trunk of infected elm trees and move to the base ...
