Abstract

The trophic state is one of the significant environmental impacts that must be monitored and controlled in any aquatic environment. This phenomenon due to nutrient imbalance in water strengthened with global warming, inhibits the natural system to progress. With eutrophication, the mass of algae in the water surface increases and results to lower dissolved oxygen in the water that is essential for fishes. Numerous limnological and physical features affect the trophic state and thus require extensive analysis to asses it. This paper proposed a model of hybrid classification tree-artificial neural network (CT-ANN) to assess the trophic state based on the selected significant features. The classification tree was used as a multidimensional reduction technique for feature selection, which eliminates eight original features. The remaining predictors having high impacts are chlorophyll-a, phosphorus and Secchi depth. The two-layer ANN with 20 artificial neurons was constructed to assess the trophic state of input features. The neural network was modeled based on the key parameters of learning time, cross-entropy, and regression coefficient. The ANN model used to assess trophic state based on 11 predictors resulted in 81.3% accuracy. The modeled hybrid classification tree-ANN based on 3 predictors resulted to 88.8% accuracy with a cross-entropy performance of 0.096495. Based on the obtained result, the modeled hybrid classification tree-ANN provides higher accuracy in assessing the trophic state of the aquaponic system.

Abstract

Identifying the plant's developmental growth stages from seed leaf is crucial to understand plant science and cultivation management deeply. An efficient vision-based system for plant growth monitoring entails optimum segmentation and classification algorithms. This study presents coupled color-based superpixels and multifold watershed transformation in segmenting lettuce plant from complicated background taken from smart farm aquaponic system, and machine learning models used to classify lettuce plant growth as vegetative, head development and for harvest based on phytomorphological profile. Morphological computations were employed by feature extraction of the number of leaves, biomass area and perimeter, convex area, convex hull area and perimeter, major and minor axis lengths of the major axis length the dominant leaf, and length of plant skeleton. Phytomorphological variations of biomass compactness, convexity, solidity, plant skeleton, and perimeter ratio were included as inputs of the classification network. The extracted Lab color space information from the training image set undergoes superpixels overlaying with 1,000 superpixel regions employing K-means clustering on each pixel class. Six-level watershed transformation with distance transformation and minima imposition was employed to segment the lettuce plant from other pixel objects. The accuracy of correctly classifying the vegetative, head development, and harvest growth stages are 88.89%, 86.67%, and 79.63%, respectively. The experiment shows that the test accuracy rates of machine learning models were recorded as 60% for LDA, 85% for ANN, and 88.33% for QSVM. Comparative analysis showed that QSVM bested the performance of optimized LDA and ANN in classifying lettuce growth stages. This research developed a seamless model in segmenting vegetation pixels, and predicting lettuce growth stage is essential for plant computational phenotyping and agricultural practice optimization.
