1. PREDICTIVE MODELS OF CHLOROPHYLL CONTENT IN SUGARCANE SEEDLINGS USING SPECTRAL IMAGES

ABSTRACT Chlorophyll content is a widely used parameter for nutritional status diagnosis in sugarcane. This study aimed to develop a predictive model of chlorophyll content in sugarcane seedlings using spectral imagery analysis within the electromagnetic spectrum visible range. The experiment was carried out in a split-plot design, with two fertilization rat

2. High uterosacral ligament hysteropexy for the management of pelvic organ prolapse

ABSTRACT Objective: To demonstrate our transvaginal high uterosacral ligament (HUL) hysteropexy technique as an alternative mesh-free uterine-preserving pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair approach and present our institutional outcomes. Concurrent hysterectomy with POP repair is controversial as uterine-preserving techniques may beneficially allow fertility

8. PhotoMetrix UVC: A New Smartphone-Based Device for Digital Image Colorimetric Analysis Using PLS Regression

A novel free PhotoMetrix UVC is proposed for both the operation of a universal serial bus video camera (UVC) and multivariate image analysis, allowing a full solution for point-of-use analysis. A UVC was placed in an open-source 3D-printed chamber illuminated by a white light-emitting diode (LED) with controlled intensity of light. The digital images capture
