The invention relates to the technical field of image recognition, and discloses a
multispectral image and
deep learning-based forest
disease and
insect pest automatic recognition method, which comprises the following steps of 1, carrying a multispectral camera containing a red edge
wave band through an unmanned aerial vehicle to obtain a forest region image; 2, calculating a red edge normalized
vegetation index of the image; 3, performing
time sequence modeling on the red edge normalized
vegetation index data of more than five consecutive periods, and inputting a
time sequence convolutional network to generate an early
lesion probability graph; 4, detecting a pest and
disease damage target by adopting a multi-scale adaptive feature
pyramid network; 5, outputting a
disease and pest distribution thermodynamic diagram; and 6, driving the unmanned aerial vehicle cluster to execute precise
pesticide spraying. According to the method, through the high sensitivity of the red-edge
wave band to
chlorophyll degradation and in combination with sequential convolutional network dynamic modeling, an initial
lesion area can be recognized 7-10 days before disease development, the
early disease recognition capability is remarkably improved, the disease discovery period is shortened, and large-scale disease
diffusion is effectively avoided.
