Tree Recognition and Crown Width Extraction Based on Novel Faster-RCNN in a Dense Loblolly Pine Environment

Tree crown width relates directly to wood quality and tree growth. The traditional method used to measure crown width is labor-intensive and time-consuming. Pairing imagery taken by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with a deep learning algorithm such as a faster region-based convolutional neural net...
