[0045] In order to solve the defects of high labor cost and low detection efficiency in the prior art, the present invention provides a plant quality evaluation device. Referring to Figure 1, the plant quality evaluation device includes: a plant transportation unit 110, a plant detection unit 120, a plant evaluation unit 130 and a label recognition unit 140:

[0046] The plant transport unit 110 is used to transport the plants to be inspected.

[0047] It should be noted that before testing the plants, they must be transferred from the production line at the nursery to the plant quality evaluation device. Specifically, the plant transport unit 110 includes a front-end connection module and a conveyor belt module. The front-end connection module transfers the plants to the conveyor belt module, which then transports them to a location such as the plant testing unit for appropriate operations.

[0048] The plant detection unit 120 is used to obtain detection data of the plant to be detected.

[0049] It should be noted that the detection data of the plants to be detected acquired by the plant detection unit 120 includes flower color detection data, leaf detection data, and plant detection data. Flower color detection data includes flower color detection data, bud detection data, and flower shape detection data; leaf detection data includes tiller number detection data, leaf shape detection data, and leaf cover detection data; and plant detection data includes plant height detection data, crown width detection data, and effective ramet number detection data.

[0050] Specifically, for flower color detection data, the color of the flower can be described by extracting statistical features such as color histogram, color mean, and color variance; flower bud detection data involves features such as the number, size, and shape of flower buds; and flower shape detection data can extract the shape features of the flower through shape descriptors, contour analysis, and other means.

[0051] For tiller number detection data, the number of tillers can be directly used as a feature, or statistical information such as the density of tillers can be calculated; leaf shape detection data involves features such as leaf outline, area, aspect ratio, etc.; leaf coverage detection data can reflect the coverage ratio of plant leaves in the overall area.

[0052] For plant height detection data, plant height can be used directly as a feature, or relevant statistical features such as plant growth rate can be calculated; crown width detection data can provide information about the width and shape of the plant crown, which can be used to evaluate the overall growth of the plant; effective ramet number detection data can reflect the reproduction and branching of the plant, and is an important indicator of plant structure.

[0053] The plant evaluation unit 130 is used to evaluate the quality of the plants to be detected based on the detection data obtained by the plant detection unit.

[0054] The plant evaluation unit 130 inputs the detection data of the plant to be detected into a pre-built plant quality evaluation model to obtain a plant quality result. The plant quality evaluation model is used to evaluate the quality of the plant to be detected based on the detection data of the plant to be detected.

[0055] It should be noted that the plant evaluation unit 130 is provided with a pre-built quality evaluation model, which is constructed by the following method:

[0056] The quality detection judgment matrix is ​​determined by taking the flower color detection data, leaf detection data and plant detection data as influencing factors. Then, the target influencing factor weight is determined based on the quality detection judgment matrix. Then, the plant quality evaluation model is determined based on the flower color detection data, leaf detection data, plant detection data and the target influencing factor weight. Specifically, H plant quality is used as the target layer, H1, H2, H3 are used as the first-level influencing factors, and H 11 ,H 12 ,H 13, H 21 ,H 22 ,H 23 ,H 31 ,H 32 ,H 33 As the second-level impact factor, each element in H, H1, H2, H3 is compared with each other to obtain the judgment matrix A, A1, A2 and A3; the weights of each second-level impact factor θ, θ1, θ2, θ3 are calculated using the matrix A, A1, A2 and A3 using the hierarchical single row method; the weights of each subordinate first-level impact factor δ, δ1, δ2, δ3 are calculated using the second-level impact factor, where δ i =Σθ i ×Gii. Therefore, the target impact factor weight is Score=Σθ i ×δ i ×100.

[0057] Here, the quality evaluation model can be trained using a labeled training dataset, which can then be input into the initialized quality evaluation model for training. Specifically, after inputting the data from the training dataset into the initialized quality evaluation model, the model outputs evaluation results, i.e., plant quality results. The accuracy of the recognition model's predictions can be evaluated based on the human quality evaluation results and the aforementioned labels, thereby updating the model's parameters.

[0058] For quality evaluation models, the accuracy of the model's predictions can be measured using a loss function. This function is defined on a single piece of training data and is used to measure the prediction error for that piece of training data. Specifically, the loss value for that piece of training data is determined by combining its label and the model's prediction for that piece of training data. During actual training, a training dataset often contains a lot of data, so a cost function is generally used to measure the overall error of the training dataset. This cost function is defined on the entire training dataset and is used to calculate the average prediction error for all training data, which can better measure the model's prediction effectiveness.

[0059] For general machine learning models, the cost function mentioned above, plus a regularization term that measures the complexity of the model, can be used as the objective function of training, and the loss value of the entire training data set can be calculated based on the objective function. There are many types of commonly used loss functions, such as 0-1 loss function, square loss function, absolute loss function, logarithmic loss function, cross entropy loss function, etc., which can all be used as loss functions of machine learning models, which will not be elaborated one by one here. In the embodiment of the present application, any one of the loss functions can be selected to determine the loss value of training. Based on the loss value of training, the back propagation algorithm is used to update the parameters of the model, and a trained quality evaluation model can be obtained by iterating several rounds. Specifically, the number of iterations can be set in advance, or the training is considered to be completed when the test set meets the accuracy requirements.

[0060] The label recognition unit 140 is used to recognize the QR code label set on the plant to be detected to obtain the plant identification corresponding to the plant to be detected, and save the quality evaluation result in a database corresponding to the plant identification.

[0061] It should be noted that each potted plant containing the plant to be tested is provided with a QR code, which stores the potted plant number of the plant to be tested. The label identification unit 140 can accurately identify the potted plant number of the plant to be tested, so that the quality evaluation results can be subsequently stored in the corresponding database.

[0062] The plant quality evaluation device provided by the present invention includes: a plant transport unit 110, a plant detection unit 120, a plant evaluation unit 130 and a label identification unit 140; the plant transport unit 110 is used to transport plants to be detected; the plant detection unit 120 is used to obtain detection data of the plants to be detected; the plant evaluation unit 130 is used to evaluate the quality of the plants to be detected based on the detection data obtained by the plant detection unit 120; the label identification unit 140 is used to identify the QR code label set on the plant to be detected to obtain the plant identification corresponding to the plant to be detected, and save the quality evaluation result in the database corresponding to the plant identification. This device can realize rapid detection and evaluation of plant traits, improve detection efficiency, greatly reduce the operating cost and labor cost of the nursery base, and provide a basis for the product operation of the nursery base.

[0063] As a further optional embodiment, the plant quality evaluation device further includes a plant classification unit;

[0064] The plant classification unit is used to classify the plants to be tested according to the quality evaluation results.

[0065] It is understood that the plant evaluation unit 130 will perform a quality evaluation on the plants to be tested based on the test data obtained by the plant detection unit 120, thereby obtaining a quality evaluation score. The plants are then classified based on the quality evaluation score. For example, a quality evaluation score greater than 90 points is considered superior, a quality evaluation score greater than 60 points is considered acceptable, and a quality evaluation score below 60 points is considered unacceptable. Furthermore, unacceptable plants may be additionally evaluated for indicators that seriously fail to meet the standards.

[0066] As a further optional embodiment, the plant transport unit 110 includes a front connection module and a conveyor belt module;

[0067] A front-end connection module is used to connect to the nursery production line track to transfer the plants to be inspected to the conveyor belt module;

[0069] As a further optional embodiment, the front connection module is provided with a buckle, which is used to fix the plant to be detected.

[0070] In order to allow the plants to be tested to move efficiently in the plant quality evaluation device, the plant transport unit is equipped with a front-end connection module and a conveyor belt module. Among them, the function of the front-end connection module is to connect the nursery production line track, so as to transfer the plants to be tested to the conveyor belt module. Then, the conveyor belt module carries the plants to be tested to move efficiently in the plant quality evaluation device. Specifically, the conveyor belt consists of 5 tracks, which are distributed in a "cross" shape. Track 1 realizes the transfer of potted plants from the nursery base assembly line to the conveyor belt, Track 2 transfers the potted plants to the base inside the plant inspection unit, and Track 3 transports "superior products" to the superior product warehouse; Track 4 is at right angles to Track 3, and transports "qualified products" to the qualified product warehouse for storage; "unqualified products" return to the original base assembly line track via Track 5.

[0071] As a further optional embodiment, the plant detection unit 120 includes: a housing, a base, a wide-angle spectrum camera, a sensor module, and a three-dimensional scanner;

[0072] A wide-angle spectral camera is provided at the top center of the inner side of the housing and is used to obtain image data of the plant to be inspected;

[0073] The sensor module is arranged at the center of the base and is used to obtain temperature and humidity detection data and weight data of the plant to be detected;

[0074] The three-dimensional scanner is arranged on a slide on the inner side of the shell and is used to obtain plant height detection data and crown width detection data of the plants to be detected.

[0075] Referring to Figure 2, the wide-angle spectrum camera and the light strip 210 are arranged at the top center of the inner side of the shell. The wide-angle spectrum camera is used to obtain image data of the plant to be detected, and the light strip ensures that there is sufficient light source inside the device. The wide-angle spectrum camera is located at the top center of the detection device, and its shooting angle covers the entire interior of the device. Through shape recognition technology, it can effectively capture and store the number of potted flower buds. Through image color analysis, it can obtain and store information such as flower color. The sensor module (not shown in the figure) is located in the center of the base, including an infrared sensor and a gravity sensor, which can realize data detection of plant weight and temperature and humidity. The three-dimensional scanner 220 is arranged on the slide on the inner side of the shell to ensure that the three-dimensional scanner 220 can move up and down to obtain plant height detection data and crown width detection data of the plant to be detected.

[0076] As a further optional embodiment, the plant detection unit 120 further includes a retractable bracket;

[0077] The retractable bracket is used to adjust the height of the plant detection unit, and the retractable bracket is connected to the base with a mortise and tenon joint.

[0078] In order to meet the docking requirements with assembly line tracks of different heights, in this embodiment, a retractable bracket is provided on the outer shell of the plant detection unit 120. The retractable bracket consists of a fixed rod and a retractable rod, and the height can be freely adjusted.

[0079] As a further optional embodiment, the plant detection unit 120 further includes a light strip and a spotlight;

[0080] The light strip is arranged on the top of the inner side of the housing;

[0081] Spotlights are set at the four corners inside the base.

[0082] Referring to Figure 2, a wide-angle spectral camera and a light strip 210 are positioned at the top center of the inner side of the housing. The wide-angle spectral camera is used to acquire image data of the plant to be inspected, while the light strip ensures sufficient light source inside the device. Spotlights 230 are provided near the four corners of the base to ensure the stability and uniformity of the light source inside the plant detection unit. The label recognition unit 140 is located on the inner wall of the housing near the base. The label recognition unit 140 includes a QR code recognizer and a data storage device. The QR code recognizer can recognize the QR code label of the corresponding plant and send the quality evaluation results to the database for storage.

[0083] As a further optional embodiment, the surface of the base is provided with parallel tracks, and the parallel tracks are used to connect with the assembly line.

[0084] Specifically, two parallel tracks are left on the surface of the base, which are connected to the square shell by mortise and tenon joints; the width of the base is greater than the width of the tracks.

[0085] As a further optional embodiment, the plant evaluation unit 130 includes a display module, which is used to display the working status of the plant quality evaluation device, the detection data of the plant to be detected, and the quality evaluation results.

[0086] This display module can be used to display the operating status of the plant quality evaluation device, test data of the plants to be tested, and quality evaluation results. The display module is installed on the plant quality evaluation unit and cooperates with the control module of the plant quality evaluation device to control the plant quality evaluation device. The control device includes a power connection cable, a keyboard, a start button, a stop button, and a data storage unit. Specifically, the keyboard can be used to write programs and input control commands to realize the control of the plant quality evaluation device.

[0087] 3 , the plant quality evaluation method provided by the present invention is described below. The plant quality evaluation method described below is applied to the function or operation of the plant quality evaluation device.

[0088] A method for evaluating plant quality, comprising:

[0089] Step 310: transporting the plants to be tested by a plant transport unit;

[0090] Step 320: Acquire detection data of the plant to be detected through the plant detection unit;

[0091] Step 330: The plant evaluation unit performs a quality evaluation on the plant to be tested based on the test data obtained by the plant detection unit;

[0092] Step 340: Use the label recognition unit to identify the QR code label set on the plant to be detected to obtain the plant identification corresponding to the plant to be detected, and save the quality evaluation result in a database corresponding to the plant identification.

[0093] It should be noted that the plant evaluation unit is equipped with a pre-built quality evaluation model, which is constructed by the following method:

[0094] The quality detection judgment matrix is ​​determined by taking the flower color detection data, leaf detection data and plant detection data as influencing factors. Then, the target influencing factor weight is determined based on the quality detection judgment matrix. Then, the plant quality evaluation model is determined based on the flower color detection data, leaf detection data, plant detection data and the target influencing factor weight. Specifically, H plant quality is used as the target layer, H1, H2, H3 are used as the first-level influencing factors, and H 11 ,H 12 ,H 13, H 21 ,H 22 ,H 23 ,H 31 ,H 32 ,H 33 As the second-level impact factor, each element in H, H1, H2, H3 is compared with each other to obtain the judgment matrix A, A1, A2 and A3; the weights of each second-level impact factor θ, θ1, θ2, θ3 are calculated using the matrix A, A1, A2 and A3 using the hierarchical single row method; the weights of each subordinate first-level impact factor δ, δ1, δ2, δ3 are calculated using the second-level impact factor, where δ i =Σθ i ×Gii. Therefore, the target impact factor weight is Score=Σθ i ×δ i ×100.

[0095] Here, the quality evaluation model can be trained using a labeled training dataset, which can be input into the initialized quality evaluation model for training. Specifically, after inputting the data in the training dataset into the initialized quality evaluation model, the model outputs an evaluation result, namely the plant quality result. The accuracy of the recognition model's prediction can be evaluated based on the human quality evaluation result and the aforementioned labels, thereby updating the model's parameters. For the quality evaluation model, the accuracy of the model's prediction results can be measured using a loss function. The loss function is defined on a single training data point and is used to measure the prediction error of a training data point. Specifically, the loss value of the training data point is determined by combining the label of the single training data point and the model's prediction result for that training data point. In actual training, a training dataset contains many training data points, so a cost function is generally used to measure the overall error of the training dataset. The cost function is defined on the entire training dataset and is used to calculate the average prediction error of all training data points, which can better measure the model's prediction effect. For general machine learning models, the aforementioned cost function, combined with a regularization term to measure model complexity, can be used as the training objective function. Based on this objective function, the loss value of the entire training dataset can be calculated. There are many types of commonly used loss functions, such as 0-1 loss function, square loss function, absolute loss function, logarithmic loss function, cross entropy loss function, etc., which can all be used as loss functions of machine learning models, which will not be elaborated here one by one. In the embodiment of the present application, any one of the loss functions can be selected to determine the loss value of the training. Based on the loss value of the training, the back propagation algorithm is used to update the parameters of the model, and a trained quality evaluation model can be obtained by iterating several rounds. Specifically, the number of iterations can be pre-set, or the training is considered to be completed when the test set meets the accuracy requirements.

This method enables rapid testing and evaluation of plant traits, improves testing efficiency, significantly reduces operating costs and labor costs of nursery bases, and provides a basis for the productized operation of nursery bases.
