摘 要：
The identification of crop phenology and traits is essential for crop management or the breeding. With the advancement of science and technology, it becomes feasible to automatically collect crop images with high throughput. However, in addition to the inquiries of data storage and high-end device such as GPUs for data analyses, the large amount of noisy image data makes it challenging to deliver meaningful and usable information through data analyses in limited time. In this talk, I will share the difficulties and challenges encountered in the application of image recognition in agriculture, and the examples of how we currently combine statistical methods and domain knowledge in the agricultural field to accelerate image recognition. The goals of the image applications in agriculture is also very different from other industrial or medical fields. With the relative low value of agricultural products, how to rapidly obtain the results and apply them in a large scale may be the ultimate goal due to the short cropping season and enormous working load for field management. Therefore, the application of image recognition in agriculture requires different thinking. Statistical experts are welcome to cooperate with agricultural experts to develop image analysis processes that achieve both stability and practicality.
