摘要
株间机械除草技术可进一步减少化学除草剂的使用,有利于环境保护和农业可持续发展。为实现智能化的株间机械除草装置自主避让作物并进入株间区域,该研究提出了一种株间机械除草装置的作物识别与定位方法。利用2G-R-B方法将作物RGB彩色图像进行灰度化,再选用Ostu法二值化、连续腐蚀和连续膨胀等方法对图像进行了初步处理。根据行像素累加曲线和曲线的标准偏差扫描线获得作物行区域信息,以作物行区域为处理对象,利用列像素累加曲线、曲线标准偏差和正弦波曲线拟合识别出作物,并结合二值图像中绿色植物连通域的质心获得作物位置信息。试验结果表明,该方法可以正确识别出作物并提供准确的定位信息,能适应不同天气状况、不同种类的作物,棉苗正确识别率为95.8%,生菜苗正确识别率为100%,该方法为株间机械除草装置避苗和除草自动控制提供了基本条件。
Intra-row mechanical weeding, as a non-chemical weed control technology, reduces the application of chemical herbicides and is beneficial to the environment protection and sustainable development for agriculture as well. Most crops are cultivated in rows with a defined sowing or transplanting pattern, i.e. with a constant spacing distance. This is an important feature that can be used for plant recognition and localization. The goal of this study presented herein is to propose a recognition and localization approach, taking advantage of the knowledge of the sowing or transplanting pattern, to avoid crop automatically and enter into the intra-row area for intelligent intra-row mechanical weeding device. The RGB imaged plants were distinguished from soil by analyzing the excessive green (2G-R-B) vegetation index image. The Ostu algorithm method was employed to transform a gray image to a binary image. And then the binary image was dilated and eroded three times repeatedly to remove isolated pixels in binary images or to remove noise for subsequent analysis. The standard deviation of longitudinal histogram was used as the scanning line to get the crop row area information in a binary image. The next step was to sum up all pixels of the crop row area per column, thus forming a signal with a frequency that corresponds to the average crop distance. The target regions and center points were obtained by analyzing the lateral histogram with the horizontal scan line. The most probable crop regions were filtered from all the target regions using a sinusoid which was fitted lateral histogram based on the distance between crops. The phasing of the sinusoid was given by least square fit for all the center points. After fusing the center of crop row and the centroid of green plants in binary image, the plants localization were obtained through searching the closest fusion result to the sinusoid peeks. Test results showed that, the method was sufficient in plants recognition and localization for intra-row mechanical weeding
