摘要
Lodging depresses the grain yield and quality of maize crop. Previous machine learning methods are used to classify crop lodging extents through visual interpretation and sensitive features extraction manually, which are cost-intensive, subjective and inefficient. The analysis on the accuracy of subdivision categories is insufficient for multi-grade crop lodging. In this study, a classification method of maize lodging extents was proposed based on deep learning algorithms and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) RGB and multispectral images. The characteristic variation of three lodging extents in RGB and multispectral images were analyzed. The VGG-16, Inception-V3 and ResNet-50 algorithms were trained and compared depending on classification accuracy and Kappa coefficient. The results showed that the more severe the lodging, the higher the intensity value and spectral reflectance of RGB and multispectral image. The reflectance variation in red edge band were more evident than that in visible band with different lodging extents. The classification performance using multispectral images was better than that of RGB images in various lodging extents. The test accuracies of three deep learning algorithms in non-lodging based on RGB images were high, i.e., over 90%, but the classification performance between moderate lodging and severe lodging needed to be improved. The test accuracy of ResNet-50 was 96.32% with Kappa coefficients of 0.9551 by using multispectral images, which was superior to VGG-16 and Inception-V3, and the accuracies of ResNet-50 on each lodging subdivision category all reached 96%. The ResNet-50 algorithm of deep learning combined with multispectral images can realize accurate lodging classification to promote post-stress field management and production assessment.
