Improved Faster Region-Based Convolutional Neural Networks (R-CNN) Model Based on Split Attention for the Detection of Safflower Filaments in Natural Environments
AGRONOMY-BASEL(2023)
摘要
The accurate acquisition of safflower filament information is the prerequisite for robotic picking operations. To detect safflower filaments accurately in different illumination, branch and leaf occlusion, and weather conditions, an improved Faster R-CNN model for filaments was proposed. Due to the characteristics of safflower filaments being dense and small in the safflower images, the model selected ResNeSt-101 with residual network structure as the backbone feature extraction network to enhance the expressive power of extracted features. Then, using Region of Interest (ROI) Align improved ROI Pooling to reduce the feature errors caused by double quantization. In addition, employing the partitioning around medoids (PAM) clustering was chosen to optimize the scale and number of initial anchors of the network to improve the detection accuracy of small-sized safflower filaments. The test results showed that the mean Average Precision (mAP) of the improved Faster R-CNN reached 91.49%. Comparing with Faster R-CNN, YOLOv3, YOLOv4, YOLOv5, and YOLOv6, the improved Faster R-CNN increased the mAP by 9.52%, 2.49%, 5.95%, 3.56%, and 1.47%, respectively. The mAP of safflower filaments detection was higher than 91% on a sunny, cloudy, and overcast day, in sunlight, backlight, branch and leaf occlusion, and dense occlusion. The improved Faster R-CNN can accurately realize the detection of safflower filaments in natural environments. It can provide technical support for the recognition of small-sized crops.
