Fish is commonly ingested as a source of protein and essential nutrients for humans. To fully benefit from the proteins and substances in fish it is crucial to ensure its freshness. If fish is stored for an extended period, its freshness deteriorates. Determining the freshness of fish can be done by examining its eyes, smell, skin, and gills. In this study, artificial intelligence techniques are employed to assess fish freshness. The author’s objective is to evaluate the freshness of fish by analyzing its eye characteristics. To achieve this, we have developed a combination of deep and machine learning models that accurately classify the freshness of fish. Furthermore, an application that utilizes both deep learning and machine learning, to instantly detect the freshness of any given fish sample was created. Two deep learning algorithms (SqueezeNet, and VGG19) were implemented to extract features from image data. Additionally, five machine learning models to classify the freshness levels of fish samples were applied. Machine learning models include (k-NN, RF, SVM, LR, and ANN). Based on the results, it can be inferred that employing the VGG19 model for feature selection in conjunction with an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) for classification yields the most favorable success rate of 77.3% for the FFE dataset.

The purity of the seeds is one of the important factors that increase the yield. For this reason, the classification of maize cultivars constitutes a significant problem. Within the scope of this study, six different classification models were designed to solve this problem. A special dataset was created to be used in the models designed for the study. The dataset contains a total of 14,469 images in four classes. Images belong to four different maize types, BT6470, CALIPOS, ES_ARMANDI, and HIVA, taken from the BIOTEK company. AlexNet and ResNet50 architectures, with the transfer learning method, were used in the models created for the image classification. In order to improve the classification success, LSTM (Directional Long Short‐Term Memory) and BiLSTM (Bi‐directional Long Short‐Term Memory) algorithms and AlexNet and ResNet50 architectures were hybridized. As a result of the classifications, the highest classification success was obtained from the ResNet50+BiLSTM model with 98.10%.
Objectives: This study explores the application of deep learning models for classifying the spatial relationship between mandibular third molars and the mandibular canal using cone-beam computed tomography images. Accurate classification of this relationship is essential for preoperative planning, as improper assessment can lead to complications such as inferior alveolar nerve injury during extractions. Materials and Methods: A dataset of 305 cone-beam computed tomography scans, categorized into three classes (not contacted, nearly contacted, and contacted), was meticulously annotated and validated by maxillofacial radiology experts to ensure reliability. Multiple state-of-the-art convolutional neural networks, including MobileNet, Xception, and DenseNet201, were trained and evaluated. Performance metrics were analysed. Results: MobileNet achieved the highest overall performance, with an accuracy of 99.44%. Xception and DenseNet201 also demonstrated strong classification capabilities, with accuracies of 98.74% and 98.73%, respectively. Conclusions: These results highlight the potential of deep learning models to automate and improve the accuracy and consistency of mandibular third molars and the mandibular canal relationship classifications. Clinical Relevance: The integration of such systems into clinical workflows could enhance surgical risk assessments, streamline diagnostics, and reduce reliance on manual analysis, particularly in resource-constrained settings. This study contributes to advancing the use of artificial intelligence in dental imaging, offering a promising avenue for safer and more efficient surgical planning.

The escalating incidence of plant diseases presents considerable obstacles to the agricultural domain, resulting in substantial reductions in crop yield and posing a threat to food security. To address the pressing concern of Black Gram Plant Leaf Diseases (BPLD), this research endeavors to tackle disease classification through the application of a deep learning methodology. The approach leverages a comprehensive dataset that encompasses Anthracnose, Leaf Crinkle, Powdery Mildew, and Yellow Mosaic diseases, all of which affect the black gram crop. By employing this advanced technique, we aim to contribute valuable insights to combat BPLD effectively. Our research applies deep learning models, including Darknet-53, ResNet-101, GoogLeNet, and EfficientNet-B0, to classify plant diseases. Darknet-53 achieved 98.51% accuracy, followed by ResNet-101 (97.51%), GoogLeNet (96.52%), and EfficientNet-B0 (77.61%). These findings demonstrate the potential of deep learning for accurate disease identification, benefiting agriculture. The study provides a comparative analysis of deep learning models for Black Gram Plant Leaf Disease (BPLD) classification, revealing Darknet-53 and ResNet-101 as superior performers. Implementing these models in real-world agricultural scenarios holds promise for early disease detection and intervention, reducing potential crop losses. The high accuracy achieved signifies significant progress in automating disease recognition, benefiting the agricultural sector.
