LeafTrackNet: A Deep Learning Framework for Robust Leaf Tracking in Top-Down Plant Phenotyping

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

LeafTrackNet is a deep learning framework that combines a YOLOv10-based leaf detector with a MobileNetV3-based embedding network to track individual leaves over time. The authors introduce CanolaTrack, a large benchmark dataset of 5,704 RGB images with 31,840 annotated leaf instances from 184 canola plants. When evaluated without prior fine‑tuning, LeafTrackNet outperforms existing methods on CanolaTrack, KOMATSUNA, and MSU‑PID datasets, achieving HOTA scores of 88.03, 87.33, and 74.20 respectively.

MCLC-NET: Multimodal Continual Learning for Leaf Counting

The paper introduces MCLC‑NET, a multimodal continual learning framework for leaf counting that sequentially learns tasks using a memory buffer to retain key samples. It also presents MMLC, a new real‑world dataset containing RGB, depth, and thermal images across different crops and environmental conditions, organized in crop‑wise, time‑wise, and mixed orderings. Experiments show that MCLC‑NET outperforms existing methods on all three task orderings, achieving the lowest average mean squared errors.

PlantC2USeg: Cross-Scale Consistent Pre-Training for Few-Shot Unified Plant Point Cloud Segmentation

PlantC2USeg is a deep transfer‑learning framework that uses cross‑scale consistency learning and an information‑restricted decoder to improve plant point cloud segmentation. It achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on Soybean3D and ShapeNet Part, and demonstrates strong few‑shot generalization across species and sensing conditions. The method reduces the need for large annotated datasets and lowers adaptation overhead for new plant species.

A Dataset-Centric Benchmark of Deep Learning Methods for Grape Leaf Disease Classification and Detection

The paper introduces a dataset‑centric benchmark for deep learning approaches to grape leaf disease classification and detection. It evaluates publicly available datasets on disease categories, annotations, acquisition conditions, and class distributions, and tests representative models across image‑level classification, region‑level classification, and object detection. Results reveal high accuracy on controlled datasets but significant performance drops on heterogeneous, real‑world data, especially in cross‑dataset transfer and object detection tasks.
