Deep Learning-Based Pine Nematode Trees’ Identification Using Multispectral and Visible UAV Imagery
Abstract
:1. Introduction
- We compared the characteristic differences in multispectral bands between healthy and PWD-infected trees by conducting experiments with data collected in the field.
- We conducted experiments by fusing multispectral and visible images and conducted multiple comparisons and ablation experiments.
- A deep learning YOLOv5l-based PWD-detection approach is proposed by combining multispectral and visible UAV imagery.
