In this paper, we describe a method for the prediction of concentration of chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) from satellite data in the coastal waters of Kaštela Bay and the Brač Channel (our case study areas) in the Republic of Croatia. Chl-a is one of the parameters that indicates water quality and that can be measured by in situ measurements or approximated as an optical parameter with remote sensing. Remote sensing products for monitoring Chl-a are mostly based on the ocean and open sea monitoring and are not accurate for coastal waters. In this paper, we propose a method for remote sensing monitoring that is locally tailored to suit the focused area. This method is based on a data set constructed by merging Sentinel 2 Level-2A satellite data with in situ Chl-a measurements. We augmented the data set horizontally by transforming the original feature set, and vertically by adding synthesized zero measurements for locations without Chl-a. By transforming features, we were able to achieve a sophisticated model that predicts Chl-a from combinations of features representing transformed bands. Multiple Linear Regression equation was derived to calculate Chl-a concentration and evaluated quantitatively and qualitatively. Quantitative evaluation resulted in $R^2$ scores 0.685 and 0.659 for train and test part of data set, respectively. A map of Chl-a of the case study area was generated with our model for the dates of the known incidents of algae blooms. The results that we obtained are discussed in this paper.

In the paper "MLCM: Multi-Label Confusion Matrix" a method for computing the confusion matrix for the multi-label classification problem is proposed. Although the authors state that there is no similar work on computing confusion-matrix for multi-label classification problems, we point out that the method for computing multi-label confusion-matrix was previously proposed in the paper "Multi-Label Classifier Performance Evaluation with Confusion Matrix" by Krstinić et al. We will show that both methods are based on the same set of assumptions and scenarios for instances of true and predicted labels, while there are differences in computing the contribution of classification errors to the confusion matrix between these two approaches.

Smart-beehive technologies represent a paradigm shift in beekeeping, transitioning from traditional, reactive methods toward proactive, data-driven management. This systematic literature review investigates the current landscape of intelligent systems applied to beehives, focusing on the integration of IoT-based monitoring, sensor modalities, machine learning techniques, and their applications in precision apiculture. The review adheres to PRISMA guidelines and analyzes 135 peer-reviewed publications identified through searches of Web of Science, IEEE Xplore, and Scopus between 1990 and 2025. It addresses key research questions related to the role of intelligent systems in early problem detection, hive condition monitoring, and predictive intervention. Common sensor types include environmental, acoustic, visual, and structural modalities, each supporting diverse functional goals such as health assessment, behavior analysis, and forecasting. A notable trend toward deep learning, computer vision, and multimodal sensor fusion is evident, particularly in applications involving disease detection and colony behavior modeling. Furthermore, the review highlights a growing corpus of publicly available datasets critical for the training and evaluation of machine learning models. Despite the promising developments, challenges remain in system integration, dataset standardization, and large-scale deployment. This review offers a comprehensive foundation for the advancement of smart apiculture technologies, aiming to improve colony health, productivity, and resilience in increasingly complex environmental conditions.
