Quantifying post-consumer food waste in institutional dining settings is essential for supporting data-driven sustainability strategies. This study presents a cost-effective computer vision framework that estimates plate-level food waste by…

Most of researchers use the vehicle re-identification based on classification. This always requires an update with the new vehicle models in the market. In this paper, two types of vehicle re-identification will be presented. First, the…

This paper shows experimental results on learning based randomized bin-picking combined with iterative visual recognition. We use the random forest to predict whether or not a robot will successfully pick an object for given depth images of…

Recently there has been a lot of work on pruning filters from deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with the intention of reducing computations. The key idea is to rank the filters based on a certain criterion (say, $l_1$-norm, average…

Erasure coding techniques are getting integrated in networked distributed storage systems as a way to provide fault-tolerance at the cost of less storage overhead than traditional replication. Redundancy is maintained over time through…

The detection and classification of exfoliated two-dimensional (2D) material flakes from optical microscope images can be automated using computer vision algorithms. This has the potential to increase the accuracy and objectivity of…

We address the problem of localizing waste objects from a color image and an optional depth image, which is a key perception component for robotic interaction with such objects. Specifically, our method integrates the intensity and depth…

Leveraging over 30,000 images each with up to 89 labels collected by Recology---an integrated resource recovery company with both residential and commercial trash, recycling and composting services---the authors develop ContamiNet, a…

Polythene has always been a threat to the environment since its invention. It is non-biodegradable and very difficult to recycle. Even after many awareness campaigns and practices, Separation of polythene bags from waste has been a…

The tools and technology that are currently used to analyze chemical compound structures that identify polymer types in microplastics are not well-calibrated for environmentally weathered microplastics. Microplastics that have been degraded…

Nondestructive evaluation methods play an important role in ensuring component integrity and safety in many industries. Operator fatigue can play a critical role in the reliability of such methods. This is important for inspecting high…

The waste of electrical and electronic equipment has been increased due to the fast evolution of technology products and competition of many IT sectors. Every year millions of tons of electronic waste are thrown into the environment which…

Plastic pollution presents an escalating global issue, impacting health and environmental systems, with micro- and nanoplastics found across mediums from potable water to air. Traditional methods for studying these contaminants are…

This paper proposes a iterative visual recognition system for learning based randomized bin-picking. Since the configuration on randomly stacked objects while executing the current picking trial is just partially different from the…

The huge amount of plastic wastes has become a pressing global environmental problem, leading to severe environmental pollution and resource depletion through conventional downcycling technologies like incineration and landfilling. In…

Accurately quantifying and removing submerged underwater waste plays a crucial role in safeguarding marine life and preserving the environment. While detecting floating and surface debris is relatively straightforward, quantifying submerged…

Informatics-driven approaches, such as machine learning and sequential experimental design, have shown the potential to drastically impact next-generation materials discovery and design. In this perspective, we present a few guiding…

Plastic waste in aquatic environments poses severe risks to marine life and human health. Autonomous robots can be utilized to collect floating waste, but they require accurate object identification capability. While deep learning has been…

One third of food produced in the world for human consumption -- approximately 1.3 billion tons -- is lost or wasted every year. By classifying food waste of individual consumers and raising awareness of the measures, avoidable food waste…

This study introduces the Garbage Dataset (GD), a publicly available image dataset designed to advance automated waste segregation through machine learning and computer vision. It is a diverse dataset that covers 10 categories of common…
