UAV-based super-resolution instance segmentation enables ecological monitoring of sea cucumbers in shallow coral reef habitats

Accurate monitoring of sea cucumbers from UAV imagery remains challenging because submerged individuals often exhibit low contrast, camouflage against coral-rubble backgrounds, and weak boundary information under water-surface disturbance. In particular, key visual cues such as b...

Occlusion-Robust Cattle Pose Estimation for Precision Livestock Monitoring Using Hierarchical Locality Refinement

Accurate cattle pose estimation is important for precision livestock farming because body landmarks can provide quantitative visual inputs for potential health monitoring, behavior analysis, lameness assessment, and welfare evaluation. This study focuses on keypoint-localization...

Precision Greenhouse Rose Phenotyping from UAV Imagery Using a Multi-Source Dataset and Lightweight BloomRoseNet

Accurate detection of blooming roses and flower buds is essential for greenhouse phenotyping, cultivation scheduling, harvest planning, and yield management. However, UAV-derived greenhouse imagery presents major challenges because rose targets are often small, densely distribute...
