摘要
Using shape features of plant leaf to identify the weed from the crop is an important method for weed recognition. In order to improve the accuracy and efficiency, overlapped leaves were separated through morphology operation and threshold segmentation based on distance transformation, and 17 shape features including geometric features and moment invariant features were extracted from the single leaf. Finally, ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm and support vector machine (SVM) classifier were used to feature selection and weed recognition so as to select more superior features and optimize features combination. The recognition experiment for weed in cotton field demonstrates that this method can reduce the number of features effectively and the accuracy is over 95% by using optimized feature subset. The results show that the proposed method has good performance on accuracy and stability, and can be reference for quick and accurate identifying of weeds.
