Towards smart canopies: Algorithmic design of maize canopy architectures that maximize light use efficiency
Nasla Saleem, Talukder Zaki Jubery, Yan Zhou +4
We present a computational framework that integrates functional-structural plant modeling (FSPM) with an evolutionary algorithm to optimize three-dimensional maize canopy architect…
Accessing the Effect of Phyllotaxy and Planting Density on Light Use Efficiency in Field-Grown Maize using 3D Reconstructions
Nasla Saleem, Talukder Zaki Jubery, Aditya Balu +5
High-density planting is a widely adopted strategy to enhance maize productivity, yet it introduces challenges such as increased interplant competition and shading, which can limit…
Class-specific Data Augmentation for Plant Stress Classification
Nasla Saleem, Aditya Balu, Talukder Zaki Jubery +4
Data augmentation is a powerful tool for improving deep learning-based image classifiers for plant stress identification and classification. However, selecting an effective set of…
