Estimation of Fruit Load in Australian Mango Orchards Using Machine Vision [PDF]
Agronomy, 2021 The performance of a multi-view machine vision method was documented at an orchard level, relative to packhouse count. High repeatability was achieved in night-time imaging, with an absolute percentage error of 2% or less.

Comparative transcriptomic analysis identifies genes responsible for fruit count and oil yield in the oil tea plant Camellia chekiangoleosa [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 Fruit yield is an important trait for horticultural crops. However, the limited fruit yield of Camellia chekiangoleosa, a novel promising oil tree, restricts the production of oil.

Evaluation of methods to estimate understory fruit biomass. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Fleshy fruit is consumed by many wildlife species and is a critical component of forest ecosystems. Because fruit production may change quickly during forest succession, frequent monitoring of fruit biomass may be needed to better understand shifts in ...

Mango Fruit Load Estimation Using a Video Based MangoYOLO—Kalman Filter—Hungarian Algorithm Method
Sensors, 2019 Pre-harvest fruit yield estimation is useful to guide harvesting and marketing resourcing, but machine vision estimates based on a single view from each side of the tree (“dual-view”) underestimates the fruit yield as fruit can be hidden from
