Abstract
Real Estate Agents perform the tedious job of selecting and filtering pictures of houses manually on a daily basis, in order to choose the most suitable ones for their websites and provide a better description of the properties they are selling. However, this process consumes a lot of time, causing delays in the advertisement of homes and reception of proposals. In order to expedite and automate this task, Computer Vision solutions can be employed. Deep Learning, which is a subfield of Machine Learning, has been highly successful in solving image recognition problems, making it a promising solution for this particular context. Therefore, this paper proposes the application of Vision Transformers to indoor room classification. The study compares various image classification architectures, ranging from traditional Convolutional Neural Networks to the latest Vision Transformer architecture. Using a dataset based on well-known scene classification datasets, their performance is analyzed. The results demonstrate that Vision Transformers are one of the most effective architectures for indoor classification, with highly favorable outcomes in automating image recognition and selection in the Real Estate industry.

Abstract
Agriculture being an essential activity sector for the survival and prosperity of humanity, it is fundamental to use sustainable technologies in this field. With this in mind, some statistical data are analyzed regarding the food price rise and sustainable development indicators, with a special focus on the Portugal region. It is determined that one of the main factors that influences agriculture's success is the soil's characteristics, namely in terms of moisture and nutrients. In this regard, irrigation processes have become indispensable, and their technological management brings countless economic advantages. Like other branches of agriculture, the wine sector needs an adequate concentration of nutrients and moisture in the soil to provide the most efficient results, considering the appropriate and intelligent use of available water and energy resources. Given these facts, the use of renewable energies is a very important aspect of this study, which also synthesizes the main irrigation methods and examines the importance of evaluating the evapotranspiration of crops. Furthermore, the control of irrigation processes and the implementation of optimization and resource management models are of utmost importance to allow maximum efficiency and sustainability in this field.
