- The measurement of structural and functional plant traits (phenotyping) is a vital tool that is used globally to improve plant resilience and yield. This work presents a cutting-edge technique offering superior performance to traditional computer vision approaches. It was the first application of deep learning in plant phenotyping, and many researchers have cited this work as motivation of their own use of deep learning in this field. The paper was crucial in securing a 3 year industrially funded project with Syngenta (Dr. Rob Lind).
