Abstract
- Monitoring corn crop growth status is of great significance to crop production, breeding, and seed production. The Unmanned Aerial Vehicles' (UAVs) technology makes it possible to use computer vision technology to identify corn growth stage intelligently. A model customized for corn growth status monitoring based on a dense convolutional neural network (CM-CNN) was proposed, including a two-way dense module and a new activation function ELU. The two-way dense module enlarges the receptive field, while the ELU alleviates gradient disappearance and speeds up learning in deep neural networks. Dense architecture concatenates all the previous layer features to enhance feature reuse. The proposed CM-CNN performs well in classifying corn growth stages. Experimental results show that CM-CNN is a state-of-the-art method, with an accuracy of its relevant data up to 99.3%. Compared with other CNN models, viz. AlexNet, ZFNet, VGG, InceptionV3, Xception and ResNet, fewer parameters are in CM-CNN. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
