YOLO26-RipeLoc Lite: A lightweight architecture for tomato ripeness detection and picking point localization in greenhouse robotic harvesting

arXiv · May 26

YOLO26-RipeLoc Lite is a new lightweight deep learning architecture designed for simultaneous detection, ripeness classification, and center-point localization of greenhouse tomatoes for robotic harvesting. The model incorporates a Lightweight Feature Pyramid Network, a Ripeness-Aware Attention Module, and a Compact Detection Head for efficient and precise operation. Evaluated on a custom dataset from the SILAL greenhouse in Abu Dhabi, UAE, it achieved a mAP@0.5 of 92.9% with only 2.38 million parameters, outperforming existing YOLO models in accuracy-efficiency. Why it matters: This research provides an efficient and accurate solution for automating a critical agricultural process, enhancing food security and technological capabilities in the region's greenhouse farming.

Tomato Maturity Recognition with Convolutional Transformers

arXiv · Jul 4

This paper introduces a convolutional transformer model for classifying tomato maturity, along with a new UAE-sourced dataset, KUTomaData, for training segmentation and classification models. The model combines CNNs and transformers and was tested against two public datasets. Results showed state-of-the-art performance, outperforming existing methods by significant margins in mAP scores across all three datasets.

Early and Accurate Detection of Tomato Leaf Diseases Using TomFormer

arXiv · Dec 26

Researchers introduce TomFormer, a transformer-based model for accurate and early detection of tomato leaf diseases, with the goal of deployment on the Hello Stretch robot for real-time diagnosis. TomFormer combines a visual transformer and CNN, achieving state-of-the-art results on KUTomaDATA, PlantDoc, and PlantVillage datasets. KUTomaDATA was collected from a greenhouse in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
