Outline
For achieving precise and automatic growth analysis and prediction of plants, it is mandatory to obtain plant structure (i.e. branching patterns and leaf locations). Using state-of-the-art computer vision approaches using multi-view images, this project tackles the plant structure modeling problem, where branches are occluded by numbers of leaves. I also deal with the generation of plant lifelog, which consists of time-series plant structure and information from the field sensing, contributing the future of the cultivation.
