Segmentation of Agricultural Images using Vegetation Indices

Abstract
Identifying and segmenting plants from the background in agricultural images is of great importance for precision agriculture. It serves as a basis for several tasks such as identification of planting lines, identification of weed plants, agricultural automation, among others. Given this importance, in this paper, we evaluated the application of five vegetation indices for RGB images together with two binarization techniques for the plant/background segmentation process. The results showed promising performance in all evaluated indices. It was also possible to identify a relationship between the performance obtained in each index and the capture conditions in each dataset.
