用机器学习提前6月精准识别玉米和杏仁作物,助力灾情预警。
Intercomparison of Machine Learning Algorithms for Remote Sensing-based In-season Crop Mapping
- 融合遥感时序与轮作数据,用10种算法对比筛选最优模型。
- 支持向量机在加州杏仁、爱荷华玉米上平均F1达0.74(0.59)。
- 结果对年际变化敏感,适合应急管理和多作物扩展应用。
面对日益严重的气候威胁,生长期作物类型制图对粮食安全至关重要。目前美国农业部的农作物数据层在收获后次年2月才发布,分辨率30米,但尚无产品能在收获前以高精度实现近实时监测。本研究首次系统评估了多种算法在考虑年际变异下的表现。结合和谐遥感地表反射率时序数据与作物轮作历史信息,实现了在未见年份中,对爱荷华州玉米和加利福尼亚州杏仁在6月初的30米分辨率精准制图,并量化了物候与分布带来的不确定性。通过年份交叉验证,比较了上千种模型配置下10种机器学习算法的表现。超参数搜索显示,支持向量机整体表现最佳,在加州杏仁和爱荷华玉米上分别达到0.74和0.59的平均F1分数。年际差异是主要不确定来源,但表明集成方法或辅助数据有望进一步提升性能。未来可拓展至全美范围的多类作物制图及生长期产量预测。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In-season crop type mapping is critical for food security in the face of increasingly extreme climate-related threats to crops. Currently, the USDA Cropland Data Layer provides crop type labels at 30m resolution and is available the February after harvest, but no product exists that maps crop types before harvest with satisfactory accuracy that would allow emergency managers to respond to crop threats in near real time. Furthermore, the relative advantages of a wide range of algorithms have not been evaluated in a way that accounts for interannual variability, until this study. Here, Harmonized Landsat-Sentinel surface reflectance imagery time series and crop rotation history information are combined to map corn in Iowa and almonds in California at 30m resolution accurately by early June in unseen years, with robust quantification of uncertainty due to phenology and crop distribution. Thousands of model configurations across ten machine learning algorithms were compared using a year-wise cross-validation and a suite of metrics. Hyperparameter search revealed Support Vector Machines to be the most successful algorithm overall, with a mean F1 score of 0.74 (0.59) across five unseen validation years for almonds by early June in California (corn by early June in Iowa). Interannual variation was a large source of uncertainty, but patterns showed the potential to further improve performance with ensemble approaches or ancillary data. Future work may extend these methods to include multiclass maps of all crop types, CONUS-wide maps, and in-season crop yield forecasting.
