Other claims from this paper (3)
- Method / resource Spectral similarity sample selection mitigated domain shift by identifying representative simulated training samples.
- Method / resource Chlorophyll-based empirical formulas estimated maize leaf nitrogen content more accurately than leaf-protein formulas.
- Method / resource Validation on four crop species supported generalizability of DeepSpecN.
