...difficult and expensive to obtain. Self-supervised learning has emerged as a solution for this problem, as it leverages unlabeled data to learn useful representations. In this paper, we propose a self-supervised method for point cloud representation learning that enforces a point-based and instance-based...
However, the agricultural productivity per hectare is relatively low and the potential is underused. Greenhouse farming used to be quite common in Romania, but since the fall of the communist regime most greenhouses have become outdated and very inefficient. ClimaGreen is a collaborative, multidisciplinary...
