Abstract

BACKGROUND: Rice is one of the major food crops in the world, and the monitoring of its growth condition is of great significance for guaranteeing food security and promoting sustainable agricultural development. Leaf area index (LAI) is a key indicator for assessing the growth condition and yield potential of rice, and the traditional methods for obtaining LAI have problems such as low efficiency and large error. With the development of remote sensing technology, unmanned aerial multispectral remote sensing combined with deep learning technology provides a new way for efficient and accurate estimation of LAI in rice.
