- Abstract: The cultivation of orchard meadows provides an ecological benefit for
biodiversity, which is significantly higher than in intensively cultivated
orchards. The goal of this research is to create a tree model to automatically
determine possible pruning points for stand-alone trees within meadows. The
algorithm which is presented here is capable of building a skeleton model based
on a pre-segmented photogrammetric 3D point cloud. Good results were achieved
in assigning the points to their leading branches and building a virtual tree
model, reaching an overall accuracy of 95.19 %. This model provided the
necessary information about the geometry of the tree for automated pruning.

- Hierarchical clustering with dot products recovers hidden tree structure [53.68551192799585]
In this paper we offer a new perspective on the well established agglomerative clustering algorithm, focusing on recovery of hierarchical structure.
We recommend a simple variant of the standard algorithm, in which clusters are merged by maximum average dot product and not, for example, by minimum distance or within-cluster variance.
We demonstrate that the tree output by this algorithm provides a bona fide estimate of generative hierarchical structure in data, under a generic probabilistic graphical model.

In fruit tree growth, pruning is an important management practice for preventing overcrowding, improving canopy access to light and promoting regrowth.
We present a framework for suggesting pruning strategies on LiDAR-scanned commercial fruit trees using a scoring function.
The light distribution was improved by up to 25.15%, demonstrating a 16% improvement over commercial pruning on a real tree, and certain cut points were discovered which improved light distribution with a smaller negative impact on tree volume.

This paper further extends the deep forest idea in several important aspects.
We employ a probabilistic tree whose nodes make probabilistic routing decisions, a.k.a., soft routing, rather than hard binary decisions.
