Developing an ISO11783-compliant prescription map for variable rate spraying in vineyards based on 3D canopy reconstruction by Björn Poss, Nikos Tsoulias, Galibjon M. Sharipov, Andreas Heiß, Dimitrios S. Paraforos

“…This correlation's linear regression was used to calculate dose rates, leading to the successful development of a grid-based prescription map in ISO-XML format, compatible with ISOBUS Task Controller functionality. The resulting map enables variable dose rates per meter of the leaf wall, allowing independent adjustments for the left and right sides of the sprayer simultaneously.…”

Functional Analysis of Thyme Production in Denizli Province by Arif Semerci, Enver Ken

“…The fact that the sum of the production elasticity coefficients of the factors in the estimation equation for the amount of thyme production (∑βi) was 1.12 indicates there is increasing returns to scale. Among the variables in the production function, the variables with marginal efficiency coefficient above 1 were determined as the production area (3.20) and the fertilizer factor (1.33). …”

Weighted average ensemble for Cholesky-based covariance matrix estimation by Xiaoning Kang, Zhenguo Gao, Xi Liang, Xinwei Deng

“…Our key idea is to obtain different weights for different candidate estimates by minimizing an appropriate risk function with respect to the Frobenius norm. Different from the existing ensemble estimation based on the MCD, the proposed method provides a sparse weighting scheme such that one can distinguish which variable orderings employed in the MCD are useful for the ensemble matrix estimate. …”
