One high-value crop that needs careful handling both throughout the growing season and during post-harvest care is broccoli. Broccoli heads are still plucked by hand since they are easily damaged. Moreover, to harvest broccoli plants when they are in their best condition, human scouting is also needed to initially locate the field segments where multiple […]
We know deep learning is one of the main techniques to achieve state-of-the-art performances in computer vision methods applied to agriculture. However, this technique requires very large datasets (thousands of images) so that the automatic feature extraction can work accurately, generalize and not overfit. What can be done if we have a small dataset? There are […]
The first step toward building a computer vision solution is gathering the necessary images and preparing the training dataset. Something of extreme importance for agricultural environments as they are amongst the most challenging due to the constantly changing environmental conditions. Plant’s shape, size, characteristics, and color change throughout the growing season and are heavily dependent […]
