Methods of Crop Breeding in Plants: A Review
Abstract: In mass selection, seeds are gathered from (as a rule a couple of dozen to a couple of hundred) desirable appearing individuals in a populace, and the cutting edge is sown from the supply of blended seed. This technique, some of the time alluded to as phenotypic selection, depends on how every individual looks. Mass selection has been used widely to improve old “land” varieties that have been passed down …

Using LapSRN (Image Resolution Deep Learning Model) with Transfer Learning
Abstract: In order to create high-resolution photographs, Super Resolution (SR) tries to transform low-resolution photos. SR methods can be categorized into two categories: Single Image Super Resolution (SISR) and Video Super Resolution (VSR). SISR initially needs to upscale low-resolution photos to high-definition images. VSR, which stands for "image super resolution," is used to transform low-quality videos into ones with higher resolution. Deep learning techniques use Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), a special …
