摘要: The number of wheat ears is one of the most important factors in wheat yield composition. Rapid and accurate assessment of wheat ear number is of great importance for predicting grain yield and food security-related early warning signal generation. The current wheat ear counting methods rely on manual surveys, which are time-consuming, laborious, inefficient and inaccurate. Existing non-destructive wheat ear detection techniques are mostly applied to near-ground images and are difficult to apply to large-scale monitoring. In this study, we proposed a sampling survey method based on the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Firstly, a small number of UAV images were acquired based on the five-point sampling mode. Secondly, an adaptive Gaussian kernel size was used to generate the ground truth density map. Thirdly, a density map regression network (DM-Net) was constructed and optimized. Finally, we designed an overlapping area of sub-images to solve the repeated counting caused by image segmentation. The MAE and MSE of the proposed model were 9.01 and 11.85, respectively. We compared the sampling survey method based on UAV images in this paper with the manual survey method. The results showed that the RMSE and MAPE of NM13 were 18.95 x 10(4)/hm(2) and 3.37%, respectively, and for YFM4, 13.65 x 10(4)/hm(2) and 2.94%, respectively. This study enables the investigation of the number of wheat ears in a large area, which can provide favorable support for wheat yield estimation.
