Active Robotic Perception for Disease Detection and Mapping in Apple Trees

  • 融合立体视觉与语义分割,构建带置信度的3D病害地图。
  • 语义引导的视点规划使30个视角下病害识别F1达0.6106,实验室测试最高达0.9058。
  • 适合果园病害智能巡检系统研发者与农业机器人工程师参考。

大规模果园生产需要及时精确的病害监测,但传统人工巡查劳动强度大、成本高,导致病害常被延迟发现且空间分辨率粗略,通常仅到地块级别。本文提出一种面向休眠期苹果树的自主移动主动感知系统,用于靶向检测和绘制腐烂病(fire blight)病害。系统整合闪光立体RGB感知、实时深度估计、实例级分割与置信度感知的语义3D建图,实现病害症状的精确定位。语义预测融合至体素占用图表示中,可追踪占据状态与每体素语义置信度,生成供果农操作的空间地图。为在复杂树冠内主动优化观测,我们在统一感知-动作循环中评估三种视点规划策略:确定性几何基线、最大化未知空间减少的体素化最优视点规划器,以及优先关注低置信度症状区域的语义最优视点规划器。在人工树实验与五个模拟病害树上的实验表明,该系统能可靠地定位与映射病害症状,为实地评估奠定基础。仿真中,语义规划器在30个视点后取得最高F1分数(0.6106),体素规划器达到最高感兴趣区域覆盖(85.82%)。在实验室环境中,语义规划器最终F1达0.9058,两类最优视点规划均显著优于基线方案。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large-scale orchard production requires timely and precise disease monitoring, yet routine manual scouting is labor-intensive and financially impractical at the scale of modern operations. As a result, disease outbreaks are often detected late and tracked at coarse spatial resolutions, typically at the orchard-block level. We present an autonomous mobile active perception system for targeted disease detection and mapping in dormant apple trees, demonstrated on one of the most devastating diseases affecting apple today -- fire blight. The system integrates flash-illuminated stereo RGB sensing, real-time depth estimation, instance-level segmentation, and confidence-aware semantic 3D mapping to achieve precise localization of disease symptoms. Semantic predictions are fused into the volumetric occupancy map representation enabling the tracking of both occupancy and per-voxel semantic confidence, building actionable spatial maps for growers. To actively refine observations within complex canopies, we evaluate three viewpoint planning strategies within a unified perception-action loop: a deterministic geometric baseline, a volumetric next-best-view planner that maximizes unknown-space reduction, and a semantic next-best-view planner that prioritizes low-confidence symptomatic regions. Experiments on a fabricated lab tree and five simulated symptomatic trees demonstrate reliable symptom localization and mapping as a precursor to a field evaluation. In simulation, the semantic planner achieves the highest F1 score (0.6106) after 30 viewpoints, while the volumetric planner achieves the highest ROI coverage (85.82\%). In the lab setting, the semantic planner attains the highest final F1 (0.9058), with both next-best-view planners substantially improving coverage over the baseline.
