Foxtail Millet Ear Detection Approach Based on YOLOv4 and Adaptive Anchor Box Adjustment
Foxtail millet ear detection and counting are essential for the estimation of foxtail millet production and breeding. However, traditional foxtail millet ear counting approaches based on manual statistics are usually time-consuming and labor-intensive. In order to count the foxtail millet ears accur...

Foxtail millet ear detection and counting are essential for the estimation of foxtail millet production and breeding.

In order to count the foxtail millet ears accurately and efficiently, an adaptive anchor box adjustment foxtail millet ear detection method was proposed in this research. Ear detection dataset was firstly established, including 784 images and 10,000 ear samples. Furthermore, a novel foxtail millet ear detection approach based on YOLOv4 (You Only Look Once) was developed to quickly and accurately detect the ear of foxtail millet in the specific box. For verifying the effectiveness of the proposed approach, several criteria, including the mean average Precision, F1-score, Recall and mAP were employed.
