3D plant phenotyping is notoriously known to be procedure-complicated and of low throughput due to the extensive multi-view imaging, the fragile 3D reconstruction pipeline, and the additional cost from reconstructed geometry to phenotypic extraction. These limitations are further amplified in low-cost data acquisition, where smartphone videos or sparsely sampled multi-view images provide limited view overlap and self-occlusion.
arXiv:2606. 12218v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Understanding spatial distribution of fallow land is important for optimizing the food-water (FW) nexus, given fallowing's role in crop rotation and water conservation.

Plant root phenotyping is fundamental to understanding below-ground structures, optimizing crop management, and improving agricultural sustainability. This paper presents a multimodal robotic AI framework that integrates 3D skeleton extraction with language-guided reasoning for interpretable and data-efficient root analysis.
arXiv:2608. 07579v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The AI City Challenge 2026 Track 1 evaluates multi-camera 3D perception in large indoor warehouses under a synthetic-to-real (Sim2Real) setting; depth is available only for training and validation, so inference is RGB-only.
