Abstract: A method for visually identifying crop rows includes acquiring imagery from at least one imaging device operatively connected to an agricultural vehicle while the agricultural vehicle is traversing a field, the imagery includes plants arranged in rows, processing the imagery at a computing device to preserve spatial information along a first dimension while reducing data complexity along a second dimension to generate processed data, analyzing the processed data to identify locations of the rows within the field.

Abstract: In an approach for building a subscription service personalized to a user, a processor monitors a usage of a first subscription service to capture a first set of data regarding a consumption behavior of the user. A processor scans one or more sources to capture a second set of data regarding the user. A processor updates a user profile with the first set of data and the second set of data, wherein the user profile is a first component. A processor captures a third set of data regarding a financial aspect of the first subscription service, wherein the financial aspect is a second component. A processor analyzes the first set of data and the second set of data in relation to the third set of data. A processor optimizes at least one of the first component and the second component to build a second subscription service personalized to the user.

Abstract: Strontium oxide (SrO) nanoparticle and various concentrations of chitosan (CS)-doped SrO nanocomposite were synthesized via co-precipitation method. A variety of characterization techniques including were done for characterizing and qualifying the nanocomposite. X-ray powder diffraction affirmed cubic and tetragonal structure of SrO nanoparticle and CS-doped SrO nanocomposite with a decrease in crystallinity upon doping. Fourier transform infrared spectrum endorsed existing functional groups on CS/SrO surfaces while d-spacing was estimated using high resolution Transmission electron microscopes images. UV-Visible and Photoluminescence spectroscopy spectra showed an increase in band gap energies with an increase in doping concentration. Elemental composition of CS-doped SrO nanocomposite deposited with different doping concentrations was studied using Energy dispersive Spectroscopy.

Abstract: CS-doped SrO nanocomposite were successfully synthesized through co-precipitation route for bactericidal activities. Effect of CS doping on morphological features, optical properties, elemental composition and phase constitution on CS-doped SrO nanocomposite was analyzed. XRD analysis confirmed tetragonal and cubic structures of SrO nanoparticles and CS-doped SrO nanocomposite. UV-vis spectroscopy was used to obtain 4.19 eV of SrO nanoparticles while emission spectra of doped SrO showed blueshift upon CS doping with multi-concentration. Interlayer d-spacing attained from HRTEM micrographs well matched with XRD d-spacing. Purity content of prepared nanostructures was measured with EDS analysis. Overall, 0.06:1 showed significant antibacterial activity against both Gram +ve and -ve bacterial isolates. Thus, CS-doped SrO nanocomposite can be used in modem medicine as an alternative antibacterial to overcome the development of resistance to antibiotics.
