Researchers introduce TomFormer, a transformer-based model for accurate and early detection of tomato leaf diseases, with the goal of deployment on the Hello Stretch robot for real-time diagnosis. TomFormer combines a visual transformer and CNN, achieving state-of-the-art results on KUTomaDATA, PlantDoc, and PlantVillage datasets. KUTomaDATA was collected from a greenhouse in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

Team TII EuroRacing (TII-ER) developed a full autonomous software stack for oval racing, enabling speeds above 75 m/s (270 km/h). The software includes modules for perception, planning, control, vehicle dynamics modeling, simulation, telemetry, and safety. The team achieved second and third place in the first two Indy Autonomous Challenge events using this stack.

This paper introduces ProgramFC, a fact-checking model that decomposes complex claims into simpler sub-tasks using a library of functions. The model uses LLMs to generate reasoning programs and executes them by delegating sub-tasks, enhancing explainability and data efficiency. Experiments on fact-checking datasets demonstrate ProgramFC's superior performance compared to baseline methods, with publicly available code and data.

This paper proposes a smart dome model for mosques that uses AI to control dome movements based on weather conditions and overcrowding. The model utilizes Congested Scene Recognition Network (CSRNet) and fuzzy logic techniques in Python to determine when to open and close the domes to maintain fresh air and sunlight. The goal is to automatically manage dome operation based on real-time data, specifying the duration for which the domes should remain open each hour.

This paper proposes a machine learning method for early detection and classification of date fruit diseases, which are economically important to countries like Saudi Arabia. The method uses a hybrid feature extraction approach combining L*a*b color features, statistical features, and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) texture features. Experiments using a dataset of 871 images achieved the highest average accuracy using Random Forest (RF), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Naïve Bayes (NB), and Fuzzy Decision Trees (FDT) classifiers.

The paper introduces a web-based expert system called RCSES for civil service regulations in Saudi Arabia. The system covers 17 regulations and utilizes XML for knowledge representation and ASP.net for rule-based inference. RCSES was validated by domain experts and technical users, and compared favorably to other web-based expert systems.

The paper introduces a framework for camel farm monitoring using a combination of automated annotation and fine-tune distillation. The Unified Auto-Annotation framework uses GroundingDINO and SAM to automatically annotate surveillance video data. The Fine-Tune Distillation framework then fine-tunes student models like YOLOv8, transferring knowledge from a larger teacher model, using data from Al-Marmoom Camel Farm in Dubai.
