Early identification of Tuta absoluta in tomato plants using deep learning
(Elsevier B.V., 2020-11)The agricultural sector is highly challenged by plant pests and diseases. A high–yielding crop, such as tomato with high economic returns, can greatly increase the income of small- holder farmers income when its health is ... -
Deep Convolutional Neural Network for Chicken Diseases Detection
(International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications, 2021)For many years in the society, farmers rely on experts to diagnose and detect chicken diseases. As a result, farmers lose many domesticated birds due to late diagnoses or lack of reliable experts. With the available ... -
Mobile-based Decision Support System for Poultry Farmers: A Case of Tanzania
(International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications, 2021)—Poultry farms in Tanzania are characterized by inadequate management practices which are mainly caused by the lack of adequate systems to guide the small-scale poultry farmers in decision making. It is well-established ... -
The Usability Testing of SSAAT, a Bioinformatic Web Application for DNA Analysis at a Nucleotide Level
(Engineering, Technology & Applied Science Research, 2021-06)Sanger sequencing remains the cornerstone method for Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) sequencing due to its high accuracy in targeting smaller genomic regions in a larger number of samples. The analysis of Sanger sequence DNA ... -
