Image-based technologies, known for their rapid and non-destructive characteristics, play a pivotal role in this endeavor. However, these technologies encounter significant challenges due to high inter-class similarity and substantial intra-class variability among maize kernels. To address these challenges, we propose CTNet, an advanced model that synergistically integrates the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with the Transformer architecture. This integration is further enhanced by incorporating a Feature Attention Module (FAM) and a DW-Swin Transformer, which collectively facilitate the fusion of local and global features. A Fine-Grained Perception Module (FGPM) is employed to augment the model's sensitivity to subtle imperfections. The model, supplemented with a linear classifier, ensures precise discrimination of kernel quality. CTNet was trained on the comprehensive GrainSpace dataset and achieved 1.35 % higher accuracy than the baseline model, SwinTransformer, on the test set. Compared with other methods, our model demonstrates higher accuracy in identifying defective maize grains and achieves more efficient parameter utilization in its structure. Despite moderate parameters and FLOPs, it enhances recognition performance while maintaining low complexity. As imperfect maize grains directly impact quality and storage safety, the model's effective recognition capability is critical for reducing storage losses and ensuring safety, thus providing strong support for smart agriculture.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17019,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Stored Products Research","volume":"114 ","pages":"Article 102722"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144253447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional manual visual grading of fruits poses substantial challenges to the agricultural business owing to its labour-intensive nature and the inherent diversity in inspection and categorization processes. In this study, Detecting Defective Apples using Advanced Computer Vision and Legendre Multi Wavelet Neural Networks (DDA-ACV-LMWNN) is proposed. Initially, the input image is collected from Internal Feeding Worm (IFW) database. The collected images are pre-processed using Multi observation Fusion Kalman Filter (MOFKF) to eliminate noise from the input image. Then, the pre-processed imageries are fed into the segmentation using Localized Sparse Incomplete Multi-View Clustering (LSIMC) method to extract the Region of Interest (ROI) and foreground. The segmented images are supplied to the Legendre Multi Wavelet Neural Networks (LMWNN), which detect and classifies the apples as Healthy and Defected. Generally, LMWNN does not expose any adoption optimization approaches for detecting optimum parameters to assure accurate defective apples classification. Hence, Tyrannosaurus Optimization Algorithm (TOA) is used for optimizing LMWNN which accurately classifies the defective apples. The proposed DDA-ACV-LMWNN is implemented in Python and the performance metrics like accuracy, precision, specificity, recall, F1-score, AUC are examined.

It was observed that the physicochemical composition of corn grains is influenced by grain conditions, framing and group, as well as by the interaction between these factors. The application of PCA and Pearson correlation proved to be adequate to evaluate the multivariate structure of the data obtained in the experiment. The identified correlations contributed to the understanding of the patterns observed in the analysis of variance and in the PCA.

Because diapause lacks external nutrient intake, it offers a model to study how pyruvate regulation supports metabolic adaptation under energy limitation. The khapra beetle, a destructive feeder of stored grains and cereal products, ranks among the world's 100 worst invasive species, employing facultative diapause as a survival strategy under adverse conditions. In this study, the genes encoding essential enzymes involved in pyruvate homeostasis—including pyruvate kinase (<em>TgPK</em>), pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 (<em>TgPDH</em>), and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (<em>TgPEPCK</em>)—were identified and characterized in the khapra beetle. Their expression levels were analyzed across distinct phases of cold- and starvation-induced diapause. The highest abundance of <em>TgPK</em> was recorded during the diapause phase after cold exposure, suggesting a potential need for sustained glycolytic flux to generate substrates. Its peak expression occurred in the post-diapause phase of starvation-induced diapause, suggesting that elevated pyruvate levels from glycolysis coincide with the resumption of feeding. Although <em>TgPDH</em> expression was elevated at the onset of diapause, its decline in the following weeks and post-diapause phase may indicate a transient increase in energy production to support metabolic adjustments for diapause initiation. A significant abundance of <em>TgPEPCK</em> was observed during the diapause phase of both induced diapauses, compared to the pre- and post-diapause phases, which may indicate ongoing gluconeogenesis at this stage. Additional researches are required to investigate the functional roles of these genes and associated diapause pathways.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17019,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Stored Products Research","volume":"114 ","pages":"Article 102703"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144221249","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
