Estimation of Strawberry Canopy Volume in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle RGB Imagery Using an Object Detection-Based Convolutional Neural Network.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Estimating canopy volumes of strawberry plants can be useful for predicting yields and establishing advanced management plans. Therefore, this study evaluated the spatial variability of strawberry canopy volumes using a ResNet50V2-based convolutional...

Protocol for UAV fault diagnosis using signal processing and machine learning.

STAR protocols
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) require fault diagnosis for safe operation. Here, we present a protocol for UAV fault diagnosis using signal processing and artificial intelligence. We describe steps for collecting vibration-based signal data, preproc...

Monitoring the leaf damage by the rice leafroller with deep learning and ultra-light UAV.

Pest management science
BACKGROUND: Rice leafroller is a serious threat to the production of rice. Monitoring the damage caused by rice leafroller is essential for effective pest management. Owing to limitations in collecting decent quality images and high-performing identi...

Innovation in public health surveillance for social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic: A deep learning and object detection based novel approach.

PloS one
The Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19) has a huge impact on all of humanity, and people's disregard for COVID-19 regulations has sped up the disease's spread. Our study uses a state-of-the-art object detection model like YOLOv4 (You Only Look Once, vers...

European beech spring phenological phase prediction with UAV-derived multispectral indices and machine learning regression.

Scientific reports
Acquiring phenological event data is crucial for studying the impacts of climate change on forest dynamics and assessing the risks associated with the early onset of young leaves. Large-scale mapping of forest phenological timing using Earth observat...

First use of unmanned aerial vehicles to monitor Halyomorpha halys and recognize it using artificial intelligence.

Pest management science
BACKGROUND: Halyomorpha halys is one of the most damaging invasive agricultural pests in North America and southern Europe. It is commonly monitored using pheromone traps, which are not very effective because few bugs are caught and some escape and/o...

AI-PUCMDL: artificial intelligence assisted plant counting through unmanned aerial vehicles in India's mountainous regions.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
This work introduces a novel approach to remotely count and monitor potato plants in high-altitude regions of India using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and an artificial intelligence (AI)-based deep learning (DL) network. The proposed methodology ...

Development of a deep learning-based surveillance system for forest fire detection and monitoring using UAV.

PloS one
This study presents a surveillance system developed for early detection of forest fires. Deep learning is utilized for aerial detection of fires using images obtained from a camera mounted on a designed four-rotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The o...

Monitoring of Antarctica's Fragile Vegetation Using Drone-Based Remote Sensing, Multispectral Imagery and AI.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Vegetation in East Antarctica, such as moss and lichen, vulnerable to the effects of climate change and ozone depletion, requires robust non-invasive methods to monitor its health condition. Despite the increasing use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV...
