Abstract

In this paper we present a method for efficiently measuring the particle size distribution of whole plant corn silage with a sieving-based network. Our network, SieveNet, learns to predict the size class of predefined sieves for kernel fragments through a novel sieve-based anchor matching algorithm during training. SieveNet improves inference timings by 40% compared to previous approaches that are based on two-stage recognition networks. Additionally, an estimated Corn Silage Processing score from the network predictions show strong correlations of up to 0.93 r2 against physically sieved samples, improving correlation results by a number of percentage points compared to previous approaches.
