Abstract
The application discloses a wheat ear detection method and system based on transfer learning and improved YOLOv11, and relates to the technical field of computer vision agricultural target detection; the method comprises the following steps: collecting a wheat ear original image, processing the wheat ear original image to establish a wheat ear original image dataset; selecting a YOLOv11 model as a benchmark model, pre-training the YOLOv11 model based on a wheat ear public dataset, fine-tuning the YOLOv11 model by using the pre-trained weight in combination with the wheat ear original image dataset; improving the YOLOv11 model based on fine-tuning, introducing a cascade group attention mechanism into a backbone network, introducing an ASF-YOLO module into a neck network, and obtaining a target detection network model after improvement; and training and verifying the model. The application is suitable for detecting wheat ears in a natural field environment, and aims to solve the problem of detecting and identifying wheat ears in a dense, occluded and complex background while ensuring high recognition accuracy with a self-built small dataset.
