This paper proposes a sophisticated classification process to segment the leaves of carrots from weeds (mostly Chamomile). In the early stages, of the plants’ development, both weeds and carrot leaves are intermixed with each other and have similar color texture. This makes it difficult to identify without the help of the domain experts. Therefore, it is essential to remove the weed regions so that the carrot plants can grow without any interruptions. The process of identifying the weeds become more challenging when both plant and weed regions overlap (inter-leaves). The proposed system addresses this problem by creating a sophisticated means …

Extreme weather events and natural disasters are the major cause of power outages in the United States. An accurate forecast of component outages and the resultant load curtailment in response to extreme events is an essential task in pre- and post-event planning, recovery and hardening of power systems. Power system resilience improvement is investigated in this work from component outage prediction to identifying the potential power outages in the system to estimating probable load curtailment due to these outages and offering methods for grid hardening. Initially, two machine learning based prediction methods are proposed to determine the potential outage of …
