Low cost and easy to use monocular vision systems are able to capture large scale, dense data in orchards, to facilitate precision agriculture applications. Accurate image parsing is required for this purpose, however, operating in natural outdoor conditions makes this a complex task due to the undesirable intra-class variations caused by changes in illumination, pose and tree types, etc. Typically these variations are difficult to explicitly model and discriminative classifiers strive to be invariant to them. However, given the presence of structure, in both the orchard and how the data was obtained, a subset of these factors of variations can correlate with readily available metadata, including extrinsic experimental information such as the sun incidence angle, position within farm, etc. This paper presents a method to incorporate such metadata to aid scene parsing based on a multi-scale Multi-Layered Perceptron (MLP) architecture. Experimental results are shown for pixel segmentation over data collected at an apple orchard, leading to fruit detection and yield estimation. The results show a consistent improvement in segmentation accuracy with the inclusion of metadata under different network complexities, training configurations and evaluation metrics.

“…Moonrinta et al [10] build a framework procedure that is based on image processing methods for detection and tracking of the pineapple fruit along with 3D reconstruction. They employed scale invariant SIFT and SURF descriptor with SVM learning and carried series of experiments to receive the pineapple feature classification, fruit blob tracking, 3D reconstruction, structure from motion and ellipse estimation.…”

Researchers proposed various visual based methods for estimating the fruit quantity and performing qualitative analysis, they used ariel and ground vehicles to capture the fruit images in orchards. Fruit yield estimation is a challenging task with environmental noise such as illumination changes, color variation, overlapped fruits, cluttered environment, and branches or leaves shading. In this paper, we proposed a learning free fast visual based method to correctly count the apple fruits tightly overlapped in a complex outdoor orchard environment. We first carefully build the color based HS model to perform the color based segmentation. This step extracts the apple fruits from the complex orchard background and produces the blobs representing apples along with the additional noisy regions. We used the fine tuned morphological operators to refine the blobs received from the previous step and remove the noisy regions followed by the Gaussian smoothing. Finally we treated the circular shaped blobs with Hough Transform algorithm to calculate the center coordinates of each apple edge and the method correctly locates the apples in the images. The results ensures the proposed algorithm successfully detects and count apple fruits in the images captured from apple orchard and outperforms the standard state of the art contoured based method.

The Web contains enormous size of information that is represented in various document structures. The information is scattered and redundant. Currently, search engine is the main medium for retrieving this information. Yet, the most popular search engine cannot satisfy user query. Alternatively, semantic technology can alleviate this problem. In this paper, only relevant web HTML documents on durian also known as king of fruits are chosen. The characteristics of durian will be extracted from those HTML documents. These characteristics are then employed in semantic representation and stored along with their Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) in Resource Description Framework (RDF). The RDF provides the ontology link to many other web documents on durian. Experiment on 40 HTML documents provides eleven new characteristics of durian that can be represent in RDF for semantic search engine.
