Tomato is rich in nutrition, which most people love. It has a long growth cycle and requires a lot of water, and water content is the main factor influencing the tomato plant's growth and development. It is of great significance to find out the water deficit state of tomato plants quickly for scientific and effective irrigation management of tomatoes, guaranteeing and improving the yield and quality of tomatoes. In this study, hyperspectral imaging technology was used to identify the degree of drought stress on tomato leaves in reaLtime, and a recognition method of drought stress on tomato leaves based on hyperspectral imaging technology was proposed. Firstly, a red cherry tomato was selected as the experimental variety, and 12 POTS of tomato seedlings were cultured in the laboratory. On the basis of ensuring the same as other management measures, the stress state of the tomato was controlled by controlling the amount of water applied. Then, three treatments (suitablewater, moderate and severe stress) were designed for the degree of drought stress. The hyperspectral images in the 400 1000nm range of young leaves of tomato seedlings with different drought degrees were collected in batches, and each sample' s spectral, texture characteristics were extracted. The spectral features were pre-processed using four methods, namely normalization (Norm), multiple scattering correction ( MSC), first derivative (1st) and standard normalized variate (SNV) to remove noise from spectral data. The important feature bands of the spectral features were selected using the successive projections algorithm (SPA), competitive adaptive reweighting algorithm (CARS) and the competitive adaptive reweighting algorithm combined with the continuous projection algorithm (CARS-SPA). The texture features of tomato leaves were extracted by the Gray LevelGradient Co -occurrence Matrix (GLGCM), and the important variables of texture features were selected by SPA. Finally, a support vector machine (SVM) was applied to fuse the above-mentioned various features to build a tomato drought stress recognition model, and Adaptive boosting (AdaBoost), and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) were used to compare and analyze with SVM model. The results showed that the SNV-SVM model based on CARS-SPA wavelength selection has the best classification effect after the fusion of important spectral features and texture features. The classification accuracy of the training set (ACC-0 is 94. 5%, and the classification accuracy of the prediction set (ACCp) is 95%. The adaBoost model had the second highest classification effect, ACC* 86. 5%, and ACC 87%. KNN model had the worst classification effect, with ACC* 81. 5%, and ACC 79%. Therefore, the method presented in this paper has a good effect on the real-time recognition of the drought stress degree of tomato leaves and can provide a reference for the construction of intelligent drought stress analysis technology.
