Climate variability and volatile commodity prices influence agricultural production and revenue. Production and marketing decisions are frequently based on insufficient knowledge of the specific outcome of that decision. Therefore, most planters are having difficulty with the decision-making process since they are not using high-level technologies and are relying on conventional approaches. As a result, Sri Lankan agriculture and plantation industries are operating at a lower production capacity. The objective of this study is to analyze and propose appropriate solutions to the challenges that the planters face daily based on their environmental characteristics, previous data, and using their mobile phone cameras, planters will be able to make the most precise decisions using high-level technologies. This system presents a software-enabled platform for predicting future yields, forecasting the future market and intermediate buying selling prices, recognizing pests, and providing appropriate treatments, forecasting a fertilizer plan and water delivery according to soil type, and selecting the most suitable crops for cultivation. Aside from that, introducing a platform where planters can sell their crop to local and international customers and planters can communicate with experts and other planters through an agricultural forum. Machine learning, deep learning, and image processing techniques are employed to develop this system.","PeriodicalId":185360,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 7th International conference for Convergence in Technology (I2CT)","volume":"74 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115626886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Standalone DC Microgrids is one such system commonly used. An appropriate power converter and controller selection are critical for improving the DC Microgrid reliability. The authors discuss the significance of selecting DC-DC converters in a standalone DC Microgrid. The performance of DC Microgrid with parallel interconnected converters with the droop controller and identical cable resistances is carried out considering boost and SEPIC topologies for the converters separately. Comparison between these two topologies is made based on parameters like load sharing between converters, settling time, and the ripple content of DC bus voltage. The study employs MATLAB/Simulink based simulation. The results indicate the superiority of the SEPIC converter over the Boost Converter.","PeriodicalId":185360,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 7th International conference for Convergence in Technology (I2CT)","volume":"123 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124437171","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They are then flattened and passed as an input to the subsequent fully connected layers, ending with the sigmoid layer. Binary cross-entropy is used as the objective function. The model is evaluated on the Film Videos Dataset (FiViD) [21], which is composed of video frames with and without subtitles in Arabic languages. We obtained an average accuracy of 98.83% which can be taken as an effective result. We have also conducted other experiments by fine-tuning the VGG13 model, another by using VGG13 as the features extractor and Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) as the classifier, and lastly, with a 3-layers CNN trained from scratch. It is observed that the performances of these three models are lower than the proposed methodology.
