Precision in Rice Variety Classification using Stacking-Based Ensemble Learning

Rice, a staple food for a significant portion of the global population, exhibits remarkable diversity in its varieties, presenting substantial challenges for accurate identification by consumers, traders, and farmers. This complexity often facilitates fraudulent practices, such as the unauthorized mixing of rice types, which undermines quality and trust in the supply chain. Despite its critical importance, existing research falls short of providing robust and efficient methods for precise rice variety classification based on external characteristics like color, size, and texture. To address this gap, our study introduces a comprehensive rice variety identification framework designed to enhance transparency and quality assurance. We developed a stacked ensemble model tailored for rice variety classification and curated a comprehensive dataset comprising 20 rice varieties, each distinguished by unique visual attributes. The proposed approach achieved an unprecedented classification accuracy of 100%. Furthermore, we integrated our model into a mobile application, enabling even novice users to effortlessly identify rice varieties using grain images from a smartphone camera. These findings underscore the transformative potential of advanced machine learning techniques in mitigating fraudulent practices and ensuring stringent rice quality control. Our work holds significant implications for agricultural stakeholders, paving the way for automated crop identification systems and advancing precision agriculture practices.

A Comprehensive Review of One-Pixel Attack: Research Status, Taxonomy, Applications, Regulation Policy and Future Directions

One-Pixel Attacks (OPAs) represent one of the most extreme demonstrations of adversarial fragility in deep learning, where modifying a single pixel can reliably induce high-confidence misclassification across domains such as medical diagnosis, autonomous driving, biometrics, and quantum communication. Despite their conceptual simplicity, OPAs remain underexamined in existing adversarial-attack surveys, which provide only fragmented or cursory coverage. This PRISMA-guided review synthesizes high-quality studies from 2017 to 2026 and delivers a unified, multi-axis taxonomy of OPA research spanning algorithmic foundations, black-box evolutionary optimization, emerging hybrid and program-synthesis attacks, defence mechanisms, interpretability tools, and domain-specific vulnerabilities. Our analysis reveals the dominance of Differential Evolution-based strategies, the rise of efficiency-optimized and saliency-guided methods, and persistent gaps in dataset diversity, transferability, and standardized evaluation. We summarized and assess defence paradigms including pixel restoration, anomaly detection, input-space transformations, and robust training highlighting their trade-offs in robustness, imperceptibility, and computational overhead. Building on these insights, we outline future research priorities involving selective pixel recovery, transformer-specific vulnerability analysis, saliency-driven optimization, and real-world domain-adaptive defences. We further propose a regulatory framework emphasizing robustness testing, incident disclosure, and AI security governance. This review establishes a comprehensive foundation for understanding, evaluating, and mitigating ultra-sparse adversarial threats in contemporary AI systems.

Tissue Artifact Segmentation and Severity Analysis for Automated Diagnosis Using Whole Slide Images

Traditionally, pathological analysis and diagnosis are performed by manually eyeballing glass slide specimens under a microscope by an expert. The whole slide image is the digital specimen produced from the glass slide. Whole slide image enabled specimens to be observed on a computer screen and led to computational pathology where computer vision and artificial intelligence are utilized for automated analysis and diagnosis. With the current computational advancement, the entire whole slide image can be analyzed autonomously without human supervision. However, the analysis could fail or lead to wrong diagnosis if the whole slide image is affected by tissue artifacts such as tissue fold or air bubbles depending on the severity. Existing artifact detection methods rely on experts for severity assessment to eliminate artifact affected regions from the analysis. This process is time consuming, exhausting and undermines the goal of automated analysis or removal of artifacts without evaluating their severity, which could result in the loss of diagnostically important data. Therefore, it is necessary to detect artifacts and then assess their severity automatically. In this paper, we propose a system that incorporates severity evaluation with artifact detection utilizing convolutional neural networks. The proposed system uses DoubleUNet to segment artifacts and an ensemble network of six fine tuned convolutional neural network models to determine severity. This method outperformed current state of the art in accuracy by 9 percent for artifact segmentation and achieved a strong correlation of 97 percent with the evaluation of pathologists for severity assessment. The robustness of the system was demonstrated using our proposed heterogeneous dataset and practical usability was ensured by integrating it with an automated analysis system.

Benchmark Analysis of Various Pre-trained Deep Learning Models on ASSIRA Cats and Dogs Dataset

As the most basic application and implementation of deep learning, image classification has grown in popularity. Various datasets are provided by renowned data science communities for benchmarking machine learning algorithms and pre-trained models. The ASSIRA Cats & Dogs dataset is one of them and is being used in this research for its overall acceptance and benchmark standards. A comparison of various pre-trained models is demonstrated by using different types of optimizers and loss functions. Hyper-parameters are changed to gain the best result from a model. By applying this approach, we have got higher accuracy without major changes in the training model. To run the experiment, we used three different computer architectures: a laptop equipped with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070, a laptop equipped with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080Ti, and a desktop equipped with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090. The acquired results demonstrate supremacy in terms of accuracy over the previously done experiments on this dataset. From this experiment, the highest accuracy which is 99.65% is gained using the NASNet Large.
