摘要

Effective field management relies on proficient monitoring and control, as weeds compete with crops for essential resources such as moisture, nutrients, and sunlight. Integrating unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with advanced weed detection and segmentation techniques enhances precision agriculture, enabling targeted weed management control. This study investigates the use of deep learning models to detect and segment weedy rice in rice fields utilizing images captured by UAVs. We employed various architectures, including YOLO (YOLOv8 and YOLOv11) and Mask R-CNN (implemented with the Detectron2 framework). The dataset consisted of 995 images, randomly split into training, validation, and test sets for evaluating models. Performance was evaluated using key metrics, including mean average precision (mAP50 and mAP50-90), precision, and recall. Among the models employed, YOLOv8s attained the highest performance, with a mAP50 of 0.843, a precision of 0.817, and a recall of 0.779, surpassing the other architectures. This study enhances computer vision applications in precision agriculture by demonstrating the effectiveness of deep learning models in detecting weedy rice using UAV imagery.
