description | <i>Papaver somniferum</i> (opium poppy) is not only a source of raw material for the production of medical narcotic analgesics but also the major raw material for certain psychotropic drugs. Therefore, it is stipulated by law that the cultivation of <i>Papaver somniferum</i> must be authorized by the government under stringent supervision. In certain areas, unauthorized and illicit <i>Papaver somniferum</i> cultivation on private-owned lands occurs from time to time. These illegal <i>Papaver somniferum</i> cultivation sites are dispersedly-distributed and highly-concealed, therefore becoming a tough problem for government supervision. The low-altitude inspection of <i>Papaver somniferum</i> cultivation by unmanned aerial vehicles has the advantages of high efficiency and time saving, but the large amount of image data collected needs to be manually screened, which not only consumes a lot of manpower and material resources but also easily causes omissions. In response to the above problems, this paper proposed a two-stage (target detection and image classification) method for the detection of <i>Papaver somniferum</i> cultivation sites. In the first stage, the YOLOv5s algorithm was used to detect <i>Papaver somniferum</i> images for the purpose of identifying all the suspicious <i>Papaver somniferum</i> images from the original data. In the second stage, the DenseNet121 network was used to classify the detection results from the first stage, so as to exclude the targets other than <i>Papaver somniferum</i> and retain the images containing <i>Papaver somniferum</i> only. For the first stage, YOLOv5s achieved the best overall performance among mainstream target detection models, with a Precision of 97.7%, Recall of 94.9%, and mAP of 97.4%. For the second stage, DenseNet121 with pre-training achieved the best overall performance, with a classification accuracy of 97.33% and a Precision of 95.81%. The experimental comparison results between the one-stage method and the two-stage method suggest that the Recall of the two methods remained the same, but the two-stage method reduced the number of falsely detected images by 73.88%, which greatly reduces the workload for subsequent manual screening of remote sensing <i>Papaver somniferum</i> images. The achievement of this paper provides an effective technical means to solve the problem in the supervision of illicit <i>Papaver somniferum</i> cultivation. |
