Abstract

Monitoring pest populations in paddy fields is important to effectively implement integrated pest management. Light traps are widely used to monitor field pests all over the world. Most conventional light traps still involve manual identification of target pests from lots of trapped insects, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive and error-prone, especially in pest peak periods. In this paper, we developed an automatic monitoring system for rice light-trap pests based on machine vision. This system is composed of an intelligent light trap, a computer or mobile phone client platform and a cloud server. The light trap firstly traps, kills and disperses insects, then collects images of trapped insects and sends each image to the cloud server. Five target pests in images are automatically identified and counted by pest identification models loaded in the server. To avoid light-trap insects piling up, a vibration plate and a moving rotation conveyor belt are adopted to disperse these trapped insects. There was a close correlation (r=0.92) between our automatic and manual identification methods based on the daily pest number of one-year images from one light trap. Field experiments demonstrated the effectiveness and accuracy of our automatic light trap monitoring system.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Manual visual inspection for steel surface defect detection has shortcomings such as low confidence and high labor intensity.

    “There are some shortcomings in manual testing, such as low confidence and high labor intensity.”

    From A New Steel Defect Detection Algorithm Based on Deep Learning (2021) · cites this paper as [6]

    The Discussion (page unavailable) says manually labeling light-trap insects is a large task, which supports the labor-intensity point in a different setting. The paper does not address manual inspection of steel surfaces or say that manual testing has low confidence. (LLM, conf=0.78)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
