We are delighted to announce that the research paper of Arham Sethi of Class XI has been accepted at IEEE CIBCB 2026, a peer-reviewed conference scheduled to be held in Athens, Greece in 2026.
IEEE is among the largest and most rigorous technical research bodies in the world, and research papers presented at these conferences are reviewed entirely by PhD researchers and university faculty. Papers authored by school students are very rare.
The paper presented by Arham introduces an AI model that maps where weeds are likely to emerge across a field before they actually sprout, so farmers can treat only the high-risk patches instead of spraying the whole field. It is the first method to approach pre-emergence weed prediction in this way, and it sets a new state-of-the-art solution for the problem.
Well done Arham, Shishukunj is proud of your achievement.
