The invention discloses a
plant disease and
insect pest detection method and
system, and belongs to the field of
forestry production. In order to solve the problems of poor precision and time consumption of existing
plant disease and
insect pest detection, the invention provides a
plant disease and
insect pest detection method which comprises the following steps: acquiring a visible light image of a plant in a nursery garden and three-dimensional depth information of the plant to obtain an RGB-D image; dividing the RGB-D image into a plurality of equal-size grids, preprocessing the grids, inputting the grids into the
deep learning model for detection, and finally obtaining a
plant disease and
insect pest detection result. According to the detection method, the three-dimensional depth information of the plant is introduced, so that the position and the range of the pest and
disease damage can be more accurately judged; meanwhile, the robustness of the
deep learning model is enhanced, and the model can still accurately detect diseases and insect pests under the condition that the illumination condition is poor; the whole detection method not only improves the detection accuracy, but also improves the detection efficiency, so that real-time and automatic disease and pest detection can be realized in a field environment, and the method is suitable for large-scale popularization and application. The
system is simple in
structural composition, real-
time processing and analysis are carried out while data are collected, the complexity of installation and maintenance is reduced, and the real-time performance of the whole detection process is enhanced.
