Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of supervised machine learning algorithms for mosquito identification from backscattered optical signals
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared different machine learning algorithms for the identification of mosquitoes through optical signals, based on predictor variables derived from the wing beat frequency and optical cross section of mosquitoes, these algorithms were trained to perform different classification tasks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Taming a tiger in the city: comparison of motorized backpack applications and source reduction against the asian tiger mosquito, aedes albopictus
Debin Sun,Eric Williges,Isik Unlu,Isik Unlu,Sean P. Healy,Gregory M. Williams,Peter J. Obenauer,Tony Hughes,George B. Schoeler,Randy Gaugler,Dina M. Fonseca,Ary Farajollahi,Ary Farajollahi +12 more
TL;DR: Although overall efficacy was slightly lower, motorized backpack applications of Bti were more efficient and cost-effective than source reduction methods to control Ae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of gravid mosquitoes from changes in spectral and polarimetric backscatter cross sections.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the gravidity of female mosquitoes can be identified from changes in their spectral and polarimetric backscatter cross sections, which allows for the identification of gravid females with a precision and recall of 86% and 87%, respectively.

Floating aquatic emergence trap
TL;DR: In this paper, an insect emergence trap that is substantially pyramidal shaped is presented, which is adapted to withstand wet outdoor conditions by being more durable while also being relatively simple to assemble and cost effective.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of a Direct Application of Two Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis Formulations for Immediate and Residual Control of Aedes albopictus

TL;DR: This work investigated the residual persistence of high doses of 2 formulations of Bti, a water-dispersible granule (VectoBac® WDG; 16 mg/liter) and an extruded pellet (VBC-60066; 80mg/liter), for the management of natural larval populations of Aedes albopictus.
