Cucumber Leaf Segmentation Based on Bilayer Convolutional Network by Tingting Qian, Yangxin Liu, Shenglian Lu, Linyi Li, Xiuguo Zheng, Qingqing Ju, Yiyang Li, Chun Xie, Guo Li

“…The major contributions of this study are as follows: (1) Utilized Fully Convolutional Object Detection (FCOS) for plant leaf detection, incorporating ResNet-50 with the Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) and Feature Pyramid Network (FPN) to enhance Region of Interest (RoI) feature extraction from canopy top-view images. (2) Extracted the sub-region of the RoI based on the position of the detection box, using this region as input for the BCNet, ensuring precise segmentation. (3) Utilized instance segmentation of canopy top-view images using BCNet, improving segmentation accuracy. (4) Applied the Varifocal Loss Function to improve the classification loss function in FCOS, leading to better performance metrics. …”
