Obviously, the described embodiments only constitute some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0064] The purpose of the present application is to provide a variety of regional suitability intelligent evaluation method and system, which realizes the intelligent evaluation and dynamic optimization of variety adaptability for regional environment, and improves the scientificity, real-time performance and application value of variety selection.
[0065] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more apparent and easy to understand, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0066] Figure 1 The method flowchart provided for the embodiments of the present application is as shown in Figure 1 The present application provides a variety of regional suitability intelligent evaluation method, which comprises:
[0067] Step 100: synchronously acquiring environmental data collected by an environmental sensor in a target region, crop phenotype data collected by an imaging device, and registration information in a variety registration database;
[0068] Step 200: performing space-time registration and data cleaning on the environmental data, the crop phenotype data and the registration information to obtain a cleaned data set;
[0069] Step 300: performing feature extraction on the cleaned data set to form a unified feature data set;
[0070] Step 400: inputting the feature data set into a pre-trained machine learning model to obtain an adaptability evaluation result of the variety in the target region;
[0071] Step 500: collate the adaptive evaluation results into a suitability catalog and push to the user end;
[0072] Step 600: collect feedback data of actual planting, and update the machine learning model through the feedback data iteration.
[0073] Preferably, the environment data collected by the environment sensor in the target area, the crop phenotype data collected by the imaging device and the registration information in the variety registration database are synchronously acquired, including:
[0074] A plurality of types of environment sensors including temperature and humidity sensors, soil moisture sensors and light sensors are deployed at preset sampling nodes in the target area, and the environment data is collected by the environment sensors at a set time interval;
[0075] The mobile imaging device is used to obtain crop surface chlorophyll fluorescence images and visible light images, and the images are time-stamped to obtain the crop phenotype data;
[0076] The remote variety registration database is accessed through a network interface to retrieve the registration information of the target crop corresponding to the variety code, the breeding unit, the growth period and the suitable planting area;
[0077] The environment data, crop phenotype data and registration information are synchronously matched according to a unified time index.
[0078] Specifically, compared with the traditional single sampling device, the multi-type environment sensors deployed in the field of the present application have their own independent sampling clock. In order to ensure that the data has a unified time reference system in the model input stage, a time anchor point must be established through a master clock issuing mechanism. Specifically, the present application introduces a synchronization mechanism with an edge computing gateway as the center node: the node periodically broadcasts a time synchronization signal (which can be based on NTP or GPS time signal) to each sensor terminal, and the sensor collects data and synchronously timestamps, and uploads it through a local bus or a low-power wide-area network. The sampling frequency and the model time window are consistent (for example, 10 minutes), which avoids subsequent interpolation error diffusion. This synchronous collection framework provides a guarantee for the time feature stability of the machine learning model of the present application.
[0079] Optionally, for the chlorophyll fluorescence image and the visible light image taken by the imaging device, the application emphasizes the "time-field-crop" ternary binding mechanism, which is the important basis for ensuring that the image can correctly correspond to the target crop. During the shooting process, the mobile imaging device (such as a ground unmanned platform or a multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle carrying an image module) needs to record the following parameters in real time and embed them in the image metadata: imaging timestamp (ms precision); imaging location information (GPS coordinates + operation trajectory index); crop row index (combined with operation trajectory, camera field of view width, and field path rules calculation); imaging device ID and parameter configuration identifier (to ensure the traceability of image acquisition settings). Through the above binding strategy, it can be ensured that the subsequent image data and sensing data are aligned under the condition of the same field and the same time, and are positioned to the crop row or even the single plant level. This mechanism can prevent the risk of imaging misallocation and misallocation, and is a prerequisite for image phenotype data to be effectively utilized in the machine learning pipeline.
[0080] Optionally, when adjusting the variety registration information, the application does not only extract the variety name through manual input or annotation, but also relies on field code and sowing records, and combines image auxiliary identification mechanism to realize automatic traceability of variety code. The specific process is as follows:
[0081] Based on the planting task list provided by the field management platform, the crop variety code sown in each field is obtained;
[0082] If it is missing or not clearly marked, the variety category is automatically identified through an image recognition model (using sowing label cards or plant characteristics);
[0083] Once the variety code is confirmed, only the following key fields are called from the remote variety registration database: growth period, suitable planting area, resistance level, and breeding unit;
[0084] The fields are mapped to a unified data structure and bound to the corresponding field and sampling period as one of the machine learning input features.
[0085] Preferably, the environmental data, the crop phenotype data and the registration information are subjected to spatio-temporal registration and data cleaning to obtain a cleaned data set, comprising:
[0086] The time stamps of the environmental data and the crop phenotype data are corrected at a set time interval as a unified sampling period, and the data sequence is obtained by thinning and resampling to the unified sampling period;
[0087] The global positioning coordinates recorded by the environmental sensor and the imaging device are converted into a field local coordinate system, and a one-to-one spatial mapping table is established according to the field number and the variety code to obtain a spatially aligned data sequence; the spatial mapping table is used to associate the time-aligned data sequence with the registration information of the corresponding variety.
[0088] applying 3σ principle to continuous numerical variables in the spatial alignment data sequence to identify super-threshold records, and jointly marking the super-threshold records and sensing or imaging missing records as missing records;
[0089] repairing the missing records by using spline interpolation for continuous numerical variables in the missing records and by using forward filling for discrete classification variables in the missing records, and deleting the records of the time period corresponding to the field for each field when the proportion of continuous missing of any variable in the field exceeds a preset threshold, to obtain the data records after missing repair;
[0090] complementing the registration information of the matching varieties to the data records after missing repair by using the spatial mapping table;
[0091] merging the data records after missing repair according to a unified time index to generate the cleaned data set.
[0092] Optionally, in order to eliminate the respective clock error of the heterogeneous collection terminal, the application deploys a master clock synchronization service on the edge computing gateway, corrects the local clock of each sensor and imaging device by GPS time service or NTP protocol regularly. The original environmental data and crop phenotype image data collected are reported after carrying the local time stamp. Subsequently, the system takes the above-mentioned "set time interval" as a unified sampling period, and converts the original time series data into a time alignment data sequence strictly corresponding to the unified sampling period by a thinning resampling algorithm (for example, taking an integer minute or linear interpolation). This process ensures that the subsequent model input has comparable multi-source data support at each time node, which is a necessary link to realize fine time series analysis and cannot be replaced by experience alignment or manual annotation.
[0093] In order to accurately map the global positioning coordinates to the specific field, the application adopts a two-level coordinate conversion mechanism: first, project the GPS coordinates of the sensor and the imaging device into the local geodetic coordinate system (such as WGS84→CGCS2000), and then complete the conversion from the geodetic coordinate to the "field number" label by using the ray method to determine the point falling into the polygon boundary library generated by measuring the boundary of the field in advance. According to the sowing account or label information, the system maintains a relationship table (spatial mapping table). Through this table, the application binds the generated time alignment data sequence with the registration information of the corresponding varieties one by one to form a spatial alignment data sequence, which ensures that each record is clearly associated with the specific field and variety attribute, which is a key technical guarantee to realize the variety level analysis.
[0094] The present application introduces a 3σ algorithm based on dynamic threshold for continuous numerical indicators (such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, fluorescence intensity, etc.) in the spatial alignment data sequence, calculates the local mean and standard deviation through windowing, automatically identifies the deviation points that exceed the threshold, and marks them as missing records together with the missing records caused by communication failure or obstruction. Unlike traditional global threshold, the dynamic threshold of the present application can adapt to seasonal and variety differences, improving the identification accuracy. For the marked missing records, the continuous numerical variables are restored by cubic spline interpolation, maintaining the smoothness of the data curve; the discrete categorical variables (such as growth stage labels) are restored based on the time series forward filling strategy to avoid unreasonable stage jumps; if the length of continuous missing of a variable in the same field exceeds the preset (such as 10% of the sampling period), all data in that time period are automatically removed to prevent over-interpolation affecting model training.
[0095] After obtaining the missing repaired data records, the present embodiment again calls the spatial mapping table to accurately supplement the corresponding variety registration information (growth period, suitable area, etc.) to each spatio-temporal alignment record. For the possible field missing or version conflict in the registration information, the present application designs a "minimum update priority" strategy: preferentially using the latest registration version to fill in the missing, if there is a version inconsistency, the conflicting entry is recorded in the verification log for manual review and inclusion in the historical case library. Finally, all environmental, phenotypic and registration fields are merged according to the unified time index to generate a cleaned data set for feature extraction and model training. This fusion step ensures that multi-source data is presented completely in the same record, which is the only legal input for subsequent intelligent evaluation.
[0096] Preferably, feature extraction is performed on the cleaned data set to form a unified feature data set, including:
[0097] The continuous numerical variables in the cleaned data set are normalized by minimum-maximum, and the discrete categorical variables are executed by one-hot encoding to obtain scale-unified data records;
[0098] Based on the scale-unified data records, statistical quantities of mean, standard deviation, extreme value and linear trend coefficient are calculated for each preset sliding time window to generate time window statistical features;
[0099] According to the empirical formula in the agricultural field, the scale-unified data records are used to calculate the evapotranspiration stress index, the vegetation index and the field features of the phenotypic change rate;
[0100] Mutual information screening and low variance rejection rules are applied to the and the field features to retain features with mutual information scores higher than a set threshold and variances greater than zero;
[0101] The reserved features are spliced with the feature fields of the registration information of the corresponding variety according to unified time indexing and field block numbering, to form a unified feature vector;
[0102] A unified feature dataset is formed according to the feature vector.
[0103] Preferably, the feature dataset is input into a pre-trained machine learning model to obtain an adaptability evaluation result of the variety in the target region, including:
[0104] The weight file and the hyperparameter configuration of the cross-residual attention network which is completed offline and version solidified are called in the model inference node;
[0105] The unified feature dataset is mapped into a fixed-length feature vector according to a predetermined field order, and the fixed-length feature vector is input into the network structure of the cross-residual attention network to obtain the adaptability evaluation result.
[0106] Specifically, the minimum-maximum normalization algorithm is called for each continuous numerical variable (such as temperature, humidity, chlorophyll fluorescence intensity, etc.) in the cleaning dataset, which is linearly mapped to the interval [0, 1]; and one-hot encoding is performed on each discrete classification variable (such as growth stage, pest and disease grade), which is mapped into a binary vector. This module manages the mapping upper and lower limits through a unified parameter file to ensure that variables from different sources have comparability in the same numerical scale, which is the basis for subsequent fusion statistics and domain feature calculation.
[0107] For each time series data of each field, the embodiment adopts a double-ended queue structure to maintain a preset sliding window (for example, 24 hours or 7 days). During the window sliding process, the mean, standard deviation, maximum value, minimum value and linear regression trend coefficient of each normalized variable in the window are calculated in real time, and these statistics are output in time sequence as a "time window statistical feature" array. This dynamic calculation mechanism significantly improves the ability to capture short-term environmental fluctuations and crop response relationships compared to one-time statistics, which is a key link to realize complex dynamic adaptability analysis. The embodiment further integrates a formula library in the agricultural field to call calculation functions such as evapotranspiration stress index (ET0 / crop evapotranspiration model), vegetation index (such as NDVI) and phenotype change rate (based on the difference between two consecutive frames of fluorescence intensity and the ratio of time difference) for scale-unified data records, to generate "field features" representing crop physiological conditions and environmental stress. This link converts raw numerical values into high semantic value indicators, making up for the lack of understanding of crop growth mechanisms with only statistical features. The embodiment sorts the mutual information scores between each feature and the target adaptability score based on the mutual information evaluator for the full set of candidate features (i.e., field features) generated by the above steps, and removes redundant features with scores below a preset threshold or zero variance. The remaining features are then spliced with the variety registration information (fields such as growth period length and suitable area label after encoding) according to consistent time index and field number to form a final fixed-length feature vector set, i.e., a "unified feature dataset".
[0108] Preferably, the workflow of the cross-residual attention network is as follows:
[0109] Performing linear transformation twice on the fixed-length feature vector and taking Hadamard product to generate explicit feature interaction items;
[0110] Concatenating the explicit feature interaction items with the fixed-length feature vector to obtain an extended vector;
[0111] Inputting the extended vector into three fully connected layers in turn to obtain a nonlinear transformation vector; each fully connected layer is followed by ReLU activation and Dropout of 0.2; a residual connection is set between the output and the input of each fully connected layer to realize identity mapping;
[0112] Performing multi-head scaled dot-product attention operation on the nonlinear transformation vector to generate a weight vector;
[0113] Weighting the corresponding feature channels with the weight vector to strengthen the response to high-contribution features to obtain a weighted vector;
[0114] Inputting the weighted vector into a fully connected layer with a hidden unit number of 32 and a Sigmoid activation function in turn to output an adaptability score;
[0115] The adaptability score is compared with a preset suitability threshold, and the adaptability evaluation result is mapped into four levels of high suitability, relatively suitable, general or unsuitable.
[0116] Optionally, the network of the embodiment first performs two independent linear mappings (weight matrices W1 and W2) on the input fixed-length feature vector X respectively to obtain intermediate representations X1 = W1X + b1 and X2 = W2X + b2. b1 and b2 are trainable bias parameters matched with the corresponding weight matrices.
[0117] Subsequently, the Hadamard product X cross = X1 ⊙ X2 is used to explicitly construct feature interaction items, thereby capturing second-order cross information between original features; this step replaces the traditional implicit cross layer and can realize high-dimensional feature fusion with low complexity, which is a key innovative point to improve the expression ability of the model. Then, X cross is concatenated with the original vector X in the feature dimension to form an extended vector X' = [X; X cross ], which provides more abundant input dimensions for subsequent deep nonlinear transformation.
[0118] The extended vector X' sequentially passes through three groups of substructures composed of fully connected layers, ReLU activation functions and Dropout layers. The output of each group of fully connected layers is added to the corresponding input through a skip connection to realize an identity mapping. This "multi-layer residual" design not only avoids gradient disappearance of deep networks, but also retains shallow feature information, ensuring that original feature expression will not be lost when deepening the network depth. Compared with simply stacking nonlinear layers, the residual structure of the present application can significantly enhance the fitting ability for complex feature patterns while maintaining computational efficiency.
[0119] On the basis of the nonlinearly transformed vector, the present application introduces a multi-head scaled dot-product attention mechanism: first, the query, key and value projections of multiple attention heads are calculated, and the attention weight matrix is generated according to the scaled dot-product formula. After Softmax normalization, the final weight vector W att is obtained. Subsequently, W att is used to weight the aforementioned nonlinearly transformed vector in the feature channel to form a weighted vector X att , thereby strengthening the response to key contribution features. Finally, X att is input into a fully connected layer with 32 hidden units and is activated by Sigmoid to output an adaptability score S ∈ [0, 1]; by comparing with a preset threshold, the adaptability score is mapped into a four-level evaluation result of high suitability, relatively suitable, general or unsuitable. The combination design of the above attention weighting and small output layer realizes dynamic emphasis on the importance of different features while maintaining lightweight computation.
[0120] In the present embodiment, to map the adaptability score value S output by the model to the four-level classification of high suitability, moderate suitability, general suitability, or unsuitability, the system sets preset threshold values based on quantile rules of historical regional planting data: specifically, taking the average yield of the same variety in the region in the past three years and the model score as the reference, the statistical distribution of the score S in the training set is divided into four segments, where the variety with a score greater than 0.85 is defined as "high suitability", the score between 0.70-0.85 is "moderate suitability", the score between 0.50-0.70 is "general", and the score below 0.50 is "unsuitable"; the threshold values can be dynamically adjusted according to the characteristics of the region or user demand, and the default values are set to [0.50, 0.70, 0.85] after fitting with historical data. The above scoring classification criteria ensure that the model evaluation results have statistical consistency with the actual yield performance, and have strong interpretability, which is convenient for agricultural management personnel to make decisions.
[0121] Preferably, the adaptability evaluation results are sorted into a suitability directory and pushed to the user end, including:
[0122] According to the adaptability score results, each variety is labeled with the corresponding adaptability level, and the variety identification, target region location, and predicted yield information are associated to obtain the labeled variety results;
[0123] The labeled variety results are sorted by adaptability level to construct a suitability directory containing variety number, adaptability level, evaluation time, and predicted yield interval;
[0124] The suitability directory is pushed to the user end in a structured data format for the user to browse, download, or further filter and use.
[0125] In the embodiment, the catalog generation unit first labels each variety as "highly suitable", "relatively suitable", "average" or "unsuitable" according to the dynamic mapping rule of the adaptability score S output by the model evaluation unit and the preset grading threshold, and automatically associates the internal unique identifier of the variety, the corresponding field or region coordinates, and the upper and lower limits of the predicted yield calculated based on the model confidence interval, to generate the labeled variety data record; then, the catalog generation unit calls a lightweight sorting service to sort in batches with the adaptability level as the primary key ("highly suitable" highest, "unsuitable" lowest), and arrange the varieties in the same level in descending order of the upper limit of the predicted yield, and finally output an ordered list containing fields such as "variety number", "adaptability level", "evaluation timestamp", "predicted yield lower-upper limit", etc.; finally, the catalog generation unit serializes the ordered list into standardized structured data according to the predefined JSON template, and pushes it to the user-side display layer through the system internal message bus or RESTful interface at one time, ensuring that the catalog data can be loaded, browsed, downloaded or further filtered in the Web interface, mobile App or third-party API call.
[0126] Preferably, feedback data of actual planting is collected, and the machine learning model is iteratively updated based on the feedback data, including:
[0127] After the planting period of the variety ends, the actual yield, growth period, occurrence of diseases and pests, and management measures of the corresponding field are recorded to form a sample of the feedback data;
[0128] The feedback data is cleaned and structured, and matched with the adaptability evaluation results to build an updated training set containing input features and actual output control relationships;
[0129] Based on the updated training set, incremental learning is performed on the original machine learning model to update the model parameters, so as to improve the prediction accuracy of the model for similar environment-variety combinations.
[0130] In the embodiment, for feedback update after the planting period of the variety ends, the data recovery process is automatically triggered through the interface with the field operation management system to accurately obtain the actual yield, growth period, occurrence of diseases and pests, and corresponding control records of each field, and the unique field number and harvest timestamp are attached to realize automatic and seamless collection of feedback data. This triggering mechanism eliminates the time lag and omission of traditional manual registration, which is a key technical link to ensure the timeliness and accuracy of feedback samples.
[0131] Subsequently, the embodiment uses the aforementioned spatio-temporal registration framework to align the feedback data to the original evaluation records in the field block through the master clock synchronization and spatial mapping table, and adopts an intelligent anomaly detection strategy based on the model residual distribution: for continuous fields such as yield and growth period, the local distribution of the residual between the model predicted value and the measured value is calculated to identify outliers beyond the dynamic upper and lower limits; for outliers and missing items, a residual-driven local regression completion method is used to fill in, keeping the data trend consistent; for classification fields such as pest and management records, forward inference repair based on similar field blocks or adjacent time periods is introduced; this intelligent completion process breaks through the simple interpolation or lookup table method, significantly improves the quality of feedback data, and ensures the integrity and reliability of the updated training set.
[0132] Finally, the embodiment performs incremental fine-tuning based on sample importance on the original cross-residual attention network: first, the environment-variety combinations with large prediction errors in the updated training set are oversampled to enhance the model's learning of weak intervals; then only the parameters of the attention sublayer and the output mapping layer in the network are updated in small batches online, and the learning rate and dropout rate are controlled to ensure that the generalization performance of the original model is not affected; after each fine-tuning, a new model version is generated and verified in the inference environment to achieve continuous and adaptive accurate prediction capability.
[0133] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the machine learning model adopts a cross-residual attention network structure for high-order interaction modeling and dynamic adjustment of feature channel weights on the input multi-dimensional feature vector, thereby outputting the adaptability score of the variety in the regional environment. However, those skilled in the art should understand that, under the premise of meeting the multi-source heterogeneous data expression and regression prediction task, the machine learning model can also use other known supervised learning structures, such as integrated learning models based on Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT), XGBoost or LightGBM, to complete adaptability score prediction using their non-linear feature and feature importance evaluation capabilities, especially for regional analysis in small sample or feature sparse scenarios.
[0134] Further, in the deep learning modeling scenario, the machine learning model can also be replaced by a multi-layer perception (MLP), a gated recurrent unit network (GRU), or a long short-term memory network (LSTM) structure, among others, where LSTM is particularly suitable for modeling time series features such as environmental change trends within a sliding window; for tasks that require simultaneous extraction of spatial and temporal patterns, a hybrid neural network structure that combines one-dimensional convolution and attention mechanism can also be used. The above-mentioned various network structures can be flexibly selected according to the data feature dimension, sample quantity, and model precision requirement, and all constitute feasible technical implementation ways of the present application.

[0136] A registration and cleaning unit is configured to perform spatio-temporal registration and data cleaning on the environmental data, the crop phenotype data, and the registration information to obtain a cleaned data set;
