Currently, agroecosystems sustainability is mainly challenged by unsustainable agricultural practices that lead to land degradation and amplified climate change. About 25% of the World's total land area has deteriorated due to improper agricultural land management, resulting in ~24 billion tonnes of annual soil loss. Globally, soil erosion, mainly caused by high‐frequency tilling, crop residue removal...
This paper proposes a novel algorithm for computing discriminative descriptors named as a sparse coded composite descriptor (SCCD) for robust human activity recognition. The proposed method blends the state‐of‐the‐art handcrafted features and the discriminative nature of the sparse representation of visual information. The human activity is firstly modelled using any handcrafted feature, and then...
