• Authors: Peri Akiva, Kristin Dana, Peter Oudemans, Michael Mars
• Abstract summary: We present a deep learning method for simultaneous segmentation and counting of cranberries to aid in yield estimation and sun exposure predictions. The approach, named Triple-S Network, incorporates a three-part loss with shape priors to promote better fitting to objects of known shape typical in agricultural scenes. Our results improve overall segmentation performance by more than 6.74% and counting results by 22.91% when compared to state-of-the-art.

• Abstract: Precision agriculture has become a key factor for increasing crop yields by providing essential information to decision makers. In this work, we present a deep learning method for simultaneous segmentation and counting of cranberries to aid in yield estimation and sun exposure predictions. Notably, supervision is done using low cost center point annotations. The approach, named Triple-S Network, incorporates a three-part loss with shape priors to promote better fitting to objects of known shape typical in agricultural scenes. Our results improve overall segmentation performance by more than 6.74% and counting results by 22.91% when compared to state-of-the-art. To train and evaluate the network, we have collected the CRanberry Aerial Imagery Dataset (CRAID), the largest dataset of aerial drone imagery from cranberry fields. This dataset will be made publicly available.

  Agricultural robots aim to monitor fields and assess the plants as well as their growth stage in an automatic manner. Semantic perception mostly relies on deep learning using supervised approaches. In this paper, we look into the problem of reducing the amount of labels without compromising the final segmentation performance.

  Modern algorithms are data hungry and it is not always possible to gather enough data to apply the best performing supervised approaches. We propose a weakly supervised solution to reduce the data needed to get state-of-the-art detection and segmentation in precision agriculture applications. We show how our methods are able to train new models that achieve high performances with few labelled images and with very simple labelling.
