About Sayantan

Sayantan's research work deals with high-throughput phenotyping for drought tolerance in peanuts. It involves remote sensing and machine learning techniques to estimate plant physiological and morphological traits.  Digital, false color near-infrared, and thermal images are used to extract leaf reflectance and color space indices for remote estimation purposes. Major goal of his research is automation of crop data collection for faster crop breeding and precision agriculture.
