We conduct a spectral and timing analysis of GX 339-4 and EXO 1846-031 with the aim of studying the evolution of Type-C QPOs with spectral parameters. The high cadence data from Insight-HXMT and NICER allow us to track them. Type-C QPOs appear at the end of low-hard state and/or hard-intermediate state. The results rev...

The detection of leaf diseases in plants generally involves visual observation of patterns appearing on the leaf surface. However, there are many diseases that are distinguished based on very subtle changes in these visually observable patterns. This paper attempts to identify plant leaf diseases using image processing...

The projected energy correlator measures the energy deposited in multiple detectors as a function of the largest angular distance $x_L = (1 - \cos\chi_L)/2$ between detectors. The collinear limit $x_L\to 0$ of the projected energy correlator is particularly interesting for understanding the jet-substructures, while the...
