Detection of peanut seed vigor based on hyperspectral imaging and chemometrics

Abstract

Rapid nondestructive testing of peanut seed vigor is of great significance in current research. Before seeds are sown, effective screening of high-quality seeds for planting is crucial to improve the quality of crop yield, and seed vitality is one of the important indicators to evaluate seed quality, which can represent the potential ability of seeds to germinate quickly and whole and grow into normal seedlings or plants. Meanwhile, the advantage of nondestructive testing technology is that the seeds themselves will not be damaged. In this study, hyperspectral technology and superoxide dismutase activity were used to detect peanut seed vigor. To investigate peanut seed vigor and predict superoxide dismutase activity, spectral characteristics of peanut seeds in the wavelength range of 400-1000 nm were analyzed. The spectral data are processed by a variety of hot spot algorithms. Spectral data were preprocessed with Savitzky-Golay (SG), multivariate scatter correction (MSC), and median filtering (MF), which can effectively to reduce the effects of baseline drift and tilt. CatBoost and Gradient Boosted Decision Tree were used for feature band extraction, the top five weights of the characteristic bands of peanut seed vigor classification are 425.48nm, 930.8nm, 965.32nm, 984.0nm, and 994.7nm. XGBoost, LightGBM, Support Vector Machine and Random Forest were used for modeling of seed vitality classification. XGBoost and partial least squares regression were used to establish superoxide dismutase activity value regression model. The results indicated that MF-CatBoost-LightGBM was the best model for peanut seed vigor classification, and the accuracy result was 90.83%. MSC-CatBoost-PLSR was the optimal regression model of superoxide dismutase activity value. The results show that the R2 was 0.9787 and the RMSE value was 0.0566. The results suggested that hyperspectral technology could correlate the external manifestation of effective peanut seed vigor.

Real-Time Road Lane-Lines Detection using Mask-RCNN Approach

“…Next research proposed a lane detection method based on Mask R-CNN, achieving accurate lane boundary extraction in challenging scenarios such as low-light conditions and occlusions [23]. Similarly, [24] utilized Mask R-CNN for lane detection in urban environments, demonstrating robust performance in complex traffic scenes. These studies highlight the effectiveness of Mask R-CNN in handling real-world challenges encountered in autonomous driving scenarios.…”

“…This versatile machine learning framework boasts a crucial advantage in its ability to effectively manage categorical variables with high cardinality and handle missing data, making it a valuable tool for real-world datasets (Dorogush et al, 2018). When combined with HSI, it offers an effective approach for accurately predicting the content of various sample components, particularly in the food industry, such as fat, protein, and moisture (Zou et al, 2023).…”

Applying YOLOv8 and X-ray Morphology Analysis to Assess the Vigor of Brachiaria brizantha cv. Xaraés Seeds

“…Meeting this demand sustainably necessitates solutions that not only bolster agricultural productivity in terms of land use but also optimize resource allocation. One effective strategy to enhance productivity involves the cultivation of high-vigor seeds [2][3][4]. The quality of these seeds, influenced by genetic, physical, sanitary, and physiological factors, profoundly impacts crop development, thereby directly affecting yield potential across plant species [5,6].…”

“…Moreover, recent advancements in computer vision, machine learning, and deep learning have gained considerable attention for seed quality evaluation [4,14,16]. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have shown particular promise for image-based seed assessment by learning complex patterns from seed images which are difficult to discern by traditional methods [11,14,16].…”
