Damage Diagnosis of Pinus yunnanensis Canopies Attacked by Tomicus Using UAV Hyperspectral Images
It remains challenging to control Tomicus spp., a pest with fast spreading capability, leading to the death of large numbers of Pinus yunnanensis (Franch.) and posing a severe threat to ecological security in southwest China. Therefore, it is crucial to effectively and accurately monitor the damage degree for Pinus yunnanensis attacked by Tomicus spp. at large geographical scales. Airborne hyperspectral remote sensing is an effective, accurate means to detect forest pests and diseases. In this study, we propose an innovative and precise classification framework to monitor the damage degree of Pinus yunnanensis infected by Tomicus spp. using hyperspectral UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) imagery with machine learning algorithms. First, we revealed the hyperspectral characteristics of Pinus yunnanensis from a UAV-based hyperspectral platform. We obtained 22 vegetation indices (VIs), 4 principal components, and 16 continuous wavelet transform (CWT) features as the damage degree sensitive features. We classified the damage degree of Pinus yunnanensis canopies infected by Tomicus spp. via three methods, i.e., discriminant analysis (DA), support vector machine (SVM), and backpropagation (BP) neural network. The results showed that the damage degree detected from the BP neural network, combined with 16 CWT features, achieved the best performance (training accuracy: 94.05%; validation accuracy: 94.44%).
