Abstract

A tomato automatic detection method based on an improved YOLOv8s model is proposed to address the low automation level in tomato harvesting in agriculture. The proposed method provides technical support for the automatic harvesting and classification of tomatoes in agricultural production activities. The proposed method has three key components. Firstly, the depthwise separable convolution (DSConv) technique replaces the ordinary convolution, which reduces the computational complexity by generating a large number of feature maps with a small amount of calculation. Secondly, the dual-path attention gate module (DPAG) is designed to improve the model’s detection precision in complex environments by enhancing the network’s ability to distinguish between tomatoes and the background. Thirdly, the feature enhancement module (FEM) is added to highlight the target details, prevent the loss of effective features, and improve detection precision. We built, trained, and tested the tomato dataset, which included 3098 images and 3 classes. The proposed algorithm’s performance was evaluated by comparison with the SSD, faster R-CNN, YOLOv4, YOLOv5, and YOLOv7 algorithms. Precision, recall rate, and mAP (mean average precision) were used for evaluation. The test results show that the improved YOLOv8s network has a lower loss and 93.4% mAP on this dataset. This improvement is a 1.5% increase compared to before the improvement. The precision increased by 2%, and the recall rate increased by 0.8%. Moreover, the proposed algorithm significantly reduced the model size from 22 M to 16 M, while achieving a detection speed of 138.8 FPS, which satisfies the real-time detection requirement. The proposed method strikes a balance between model size and detection precision, enabling it to meet agriculture’s tomato detection requirements. The research model in this paper will provide technical support for a tomato picking robot to ensure the fast and accurate operation of the picking robot.

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.
