Computers and Electronics in Agriculture

A research group led by Associate Professor Islam MD Parvez and Professor Kenji Hato of the Graduate School of Agriculture at Ehime University has developed "Hort-YOLO," a real-time monitoring system for horticultural crops. This system is an advanced object detection network focused on accurate and context-aware analysis of crops, and simultaneously achieves a balance between annotation speed and scalability of supervised learning, making it practical for deployment in real-world environments.
