EasyDAM_V3 overall flow chart. Credit: Plant Phenomics (2023). DOI: 10.34133/plantphenomics.0067 In the dynamic realm of agricultural AI, deep learning-based fruit detection has gained prominence, particularly in smart orchards. These techniques, however, heavily depend on large, manually labeled datasets, a process both time-consuming and labor-intensive. The previous work introduced a generative adversarial network (GAN) method, EasyDAM, to mitigate labeling costs by generating simulated fruit images. Nonetheless, this approach faces challenges: firstly, it lacks adaptability across diverse fruit species, leading to performance fluctuations in varying orchard environments. Secondly, while it reduces labor in the target domain, it still necessitates manual labeling in…
