- 用单框和多框标注对比YOLO系列模型在花卉检测中的表现
- 多框标注下YOLOv12n在密集场景中[email protected]:0.95达0.752,优于单框
- 优化器选SGD可提升性能,适合农业自动化应用
精确的花卉定位与识别对推动自动化农业至关重要,尤其在植物表型分析、作物估产和产量监测中。本文对比了YOLOv5s、YOLOv8n/s/m和YOLOv12n等架构在两种标注方式下的表现:单图像单边界框(SISBB)与单图像多边界框(SIMBB)。引入了FloralSix数据集,包含2,816张高分辨率照片,涵盖六种花种,标注了密集(成簇)和稀疏(孤立)两种场景。模型在Precision、Recall及IoU阈值为0.5([email protected])和0.5-0.95([email protected]:0.95)下评估。SISBB下,YOLOv8m(SGD)表现最佳,精度0.956,召回0.951,[email protected]为0.978,[email protected]:0.95为0.865,表明对孤立花检测准确。在SIMBB中,YOLOv12n(SGD)[email protected]为0.934,[email protected]:0.95为0.752,优于复杂标注,证明其在密集多目标场景中的鲁棒性。结果表明,标注密度、IoU阈值与模型规模存在交互影响:召回率优化模型更适合密集环境,精度导向模型在稀疏场景更优。所有情况下,随机梯度下降(SGD)均优于其他优化器。该研究为非破坏性作物分析、生长追踪、机器人授粉和胁迫评估提供支持。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Precise localization and recognition of flowers are crucial for advancing automated agriculture, particularly in plant phenotyping, crop estimation, and yield monitoring. This paper benchmarks several YOLO architectures such as YOLOv5s, YOLOv8n/s/m, and YOLOv12n for flower object detection under two annotation regimes: single-image single-bounding box (SISBB) and single-image multiple-bounding box (SIMBB). The FloralSix dataset, comprising 2,816 high-resolution photos of six different flower species, is also introduced. It is annotated for both dense (clustered) and sparse (isolated) scenarios. The models were evaluated using Precision, Recall, and Mean Average Precision (mAP) at IoU thresholds of 0.5 ([email protected]) and 0.5-0.95 ([email protected]:0.95). In SISBB, YOLOv8m (SGD) achieved the best results with Precision 0.956, Recall 0.951, [email protected] 0.978, and [email protected]:0.95 0.865, illustrating strong accuracy in detecting isolated flowers. With [email protected] 0.934 and [email protected]:0.95 0.752, YOLOv12n (SGD) outperformed the more complicated SIMBB scenario, proving robustness in dense, multi-object detection. Results show how annotation density, IoU thresholds, and model size interact: recall-optimized models perform better in crowded environments, whereas precision-oriented models perform best in sparse scenarios. In both cases, the Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) optimizer consistently performed better than alternatives. These density-sensitive sensors are helpful for non-destructive crop analysis, growth tracking, robotic pollination, and stress evaluation.
