Leaf age is an important trait in the process of maize (Zea mays L.) growth. It is significant to estimate the seed activity and yield of maize by counting leaves. Detection and counting of the maize leaves in the field are very difficult due to the complexity of the field scenes and the cross-covering of adjacent seedling leaves. A method was proposed in this study for detecting and counting maize leaves based on deep learning with RGB images collected by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The Mask R-CNN was used to separate the complete maize seedlings from the complex background to reduce the impact of weeds on leaf counting. We proposed a new loss function SmoothLR for Mask R-CNN to improve the segmentation performance of the model. Then, YOLOv5 was used to detect and count the individual leaves of maize seedlings after segmentation. The 1005 field seedlings images were randomly divided into the training, validation, and test set with the ratio of 7:2:1. The results showed that the segmentation performance of Mask R-CNN with Resnet50 and SmoothLR was better than that with LI Loss. The average precision of the bounding box (Bbox) and mask (Mask) was 96.9% and 95.2%, respectively. The inference time of single image detection and segmentation was 0.05 s and 0.07 s, respectively. YOLOv5 performed better in leaf detection compared with Faster R-CNN and SSD. YOLOv5x with the largest parameter had the best detection performance. The detection precision of fully unfolded leaves and newly appeared leaves was 92.0% and 68.8%, and the recall rates were 84.4% and 50.0%, respectively. The average precision (AP) was 89.6% and 54.0%, respectively. The rates of counting accuracy for newly appeared leaves and fully unfolded leaves were 75.3% and 72.9%, respectively. The experimental results showed the possibility of current research on exploring leaf counting for field-grown crops based on UAV images. |
