Abstract:

Tea buds recognition is one of the key technologies for intelligent tea buds picking, and the size of buds, environmental lighting, imaging angle and other factors will bring difficulties for precise buds identification. In order to solve the problem of low accuracy of traditional tea buds recognition in complex scenes, a tea buds recognition method based on YOLOV3 deep convolution model was proposed. By adding a SPP module into the YOLOV3 model, an optimized YOLOV3 model was designed to further improve the recognition ability of tea buds. The results showed that YOLOV3 and optimized YOLOV3 models could both realize tea buds recognition in complex scenes, and the average accuracy mean (mAP) of the optimized YOLOV3 model reached 91%, which was 3.5 percentage points higher than YOLOV3 model, indicating the optimized YOLOV3 could be well applied to the tea buds identification in natural environments.
