• Abstract: Apple scab is a fungal disease caused by Venturia inaequalis. Disease is of particular concern for growers, as it causes significant damage to fruit and leaves, leading to loss of fruit and yield. This article examines the ability of deep learning and hyperspectral imaging to accurately identify an apple symptom infection in apple trees. In total, 168 image scenes were collected using conventional RGB and Visible to Near-infrared (VIS-NIR) spectral imaging (8 channels) in infected orchards. Spectral data were preprocessed with an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) trained in segmentation to detect scab pixels based on spectral information. Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) was used to find the most discriminating channels in spectral data based on the healthy leaf and scab infested leaf spectra. Five combinations of false-colour images were created from the spectral data and the segmentation net results. The images were trained and evaluated with a modified version of the YOLOv5 network. Despite the promising results of deep learning using RGB images (P=0.8, mAP@50=0.73), the detection of apple scab in apple trees using multispectral imaging proved to be a difficult task. The high-light environment of the open field made it difficult to collect a balanced spectrum from the multispectral camera, since the infrared channel and the visible channels needed to be constantly balanced so that they did not overexpose in the images.

  Vision Transformers (ViTs) have not been applied to this task despite their high classification performance on generic images. ViTs do not rely on convolutions but on patch-based self-attention and in contrast to CNNs, no prior knowledge of local connectivity is present. Our results show that while the performance between ViTs and CNNs is on par with a small benefit for ViTs, DeiTs outperform the former if a reasonably large data set is available for training.

  glaucoma is challenging to detect since it remains asymptomatic until the symptoms are severe. Early identification of glaucoma is generally made based on functional, structural, and clinical assessments. Deep learning methods have partially solved this dilemma by bypassing the marker identification stage and analyzing high-level information directly to classify the data.

  This work investigates three saliency map generator methods on how their maps differ across the different spectra. As a practical problem, we chose object detection in the infrared and visual spectrum for autonomous driving. The results show that there are differences between the infrared and visual activation maps. Further, an advanced training with both, the infrared and visual data not only improves the network's output, it also leads to more focused spots in the saliency maps.
