TasselNetv4

Official implementation of [TasselNetV4: A vision foundation model for cross-scene, cross-scale, and cross-species plant counting]

Highlights

• Plant agnostic counting: a new plant-orientated task customizing Class-agnostic counting into the plant domain and highlighting zero-shot generalization across taxomomic plant species;
• PAC-105 and PAC-Somalia: two challenging PAC datasets for training and evaluating daily and out-of-distribution plant species;
• TasselNetV4: an extended version of the TasselNet plant counting models.

Comparison with the state-of-the-art CAC approaches on the PAC-105 dataset. Best performance is in boldface.
