Abstract
Pine wilt disease (PWD) is a significantly destructive forest disease. To control the spread of PWD, an urgent need exists for a real-time and efficient method to detect infected trees. However, existing object detection models have often faced challenges in balancing lightweight design and accuracy, particularly in complex mixed forests. To address this, an improvement was made to the YOLOv5s (You Only Look Once version 5s) algorithm, resulting in a real-time and efficient model named PWD-YOLO. First, a lightweight backbone was constructed, composed of multiple connected RepVGG Blocks, significantly enhancing the model's inference speed. Second, a C2fCA module was designed to incorporate rich gradient information flow and concentrate on key features, thereby preserving more detailed characteristics of PWD-infected trees. In addition, the GSConv network was utilized instead of conventional convolutions to reduce network complexity. Last, the Bidirectional Feature Pyramid Network strategy was used to enhance the propagation and sharing of multiscale features. The results demonstrate that on a self-built dataset, PWD-YOLO surpasses existing object detection models with respective measurements of model size (2.7 MB), computational complexity (3.5 GFLOPs), parameter volume (1.09 MB), and speed (98.0 frames/s). The Precision, Recall, and F1-score on the test set are 92.5%, 95.3%, and 93.9%, respectively, which confirms the effectiveness of the proposed method. It provides reliable technical support for daily monitoring and clearing of infected trees by forestry management departments.

Lu J, Qiu H, Zhang Q, Lan Y, Wang P, Wu Y, Mo J, Chen W, Niu H, Wu Z. Inversion of chlorophyll content under the stress of leaf mite for jujube based on model PSO-ELM method. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2022; 13:1009630. [PMID: 36247579 PMCID: PMC9562855 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.1009630] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/29/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
During the growth season, jujube trees are susceptible to infestation by the leaf mite, which reduces the fruit quality and productivity. Traditional monitoring techniques for mites are time-consuming, difficult, subjective, and result in a time lag. In this study, the method based on a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm extreme learning machine for estimation of leaf chlorophyll content (SPAD) under leaf mite infestation in jujube was proposed. Initially, image data and SPAD values for jujube orchards under four severities of leaf mite infestation were collected for analysis. Six vegetation indices and SPAD value were chosen for correlation analysis to establish the estimation model for SPAD and the vegetation indices. To address the influence of colinearity between spectral bands, the feature band with the highest correlation coefficient was retrieved first using the successive projection algorithm. In the modeling process, the PSO correlation coefficient was initialized with the convergent optimal approximation of the fitness function value; the root mean square error (RMSE) of the predicted and measured values was derived as an indicator of PSO goodness-of-fit to solve the problems of ELM model weights, threshold randomness, and uncertainty of network parameters; and finally, an iterative update method was used to determine the particle fitness value to optimize the minimum error or iteration number. The results reflected that significant differences were observed in the spectral reflectance of the jujube canopy corresponding with the severity of leaf mite infestation, and the infestation severity was negatively correlated with the SPAD value of jujube leaves. The selected vegetation indices NDVI, RVI, PhRI, and MCARI were positively correlated with SPAD, whereas TCARI and GI were negatively correlated with SPAD. The accuracy of the optimized PSO-ELM model (R 2 = 0.856, RMSE = 0.796) was superior to that of the ELM model alone (R 2 = 0.748, RMSE = 1.689). The PSO-ELM model for remote sensing estimation of relative leaf chlorophyll content of jujube shows high fault tolerance and improved data-processing efficiency. The results provide a reference for the utility of UAV remote sensing for monitoring leaf mite infestation of jujube.

A GA and SVM Classification Model for Pine Wilt Disease Detection Using UAV-Based Hyperspectral Imagery. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2022.

Abstract
Pine wilt disease (PWD), caused by the pine wood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus), is a global destructive threat to forests and has led to serious economic losses all over the world. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a feasible and effective method to accurately monitor and estimate PWD infection. In this study, we used hyperspectral imagery (HI) collected by an unmanned airship with a hyperspectral imaging spectrometer to detect PWD in healthy, early, middle and serious infection stages. To avoid massive calculations on the full spectral dimensions of the HI, 16 spectral features were extracted from the HI, and a genetic algorithm (GA) was implemented to identify the optimal ones with the least fitness. Simultaneously, a support vector machine (SVM) classifier was established to predict the PWD infection stage for an individual pine tree. The following results were obtained: (1) the spectral characteristics for pine trees in different PWD infection stages were distinctive in the green region (510–580 nm), red edge (680–760 nm) and near-infrared (780–1000 nm) spectra; (2) the six optimal spectral features (Dgreen, SDgreen, Dred, DRE, DNIR, SDNIR) selected with the GA effectively distinguished the PWD infection stages of pine trees with a lower calculation cost; (3) compared with the traditional classifiers, such as k-nearest neighbor (KNN), random forest (RF) and single SVM, the proposed GA and SVM classifier achieved the highest overall accuracy (95.24%) and Kappa coefficient (0.9234). The approach could also be employed for monitoring and detecting other forest pests.
