Deep Machine Learning provides state-of-the-art performance in image-based plant phenotyping (2016)
Preprint / Working Paper
Pound, M. P., Burgess, A. J., Wilson, M. H., Atkinson, J. A., Griffiths, M., Jackson, A. S., …French, A. P. Deep Machine Learning provides state-of-the-art performance in image-based plant phenotyping

Deep learning is an emerging field that promises unparalleled results on many data analysis problems. We show the success offered by such techniques when applied to the challenging problem of image-based plant phenotyping, and demonstrate state-of-th...

A patch-based approach to 3D plant shoot phenotyping (2016)
Journal Article
Pound, M. P., French, A. P., Fozard, J. A., Murchie, E. H., & Pridmore, T. P. (2016). A patch-based approach to 3D plant shoot phenotyping. Machine Vision and Applications, 27(5), 767-779. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00138-016-0756-8

The emerging discipline of plant phenomics aims to measure key plant characteristics, or traits, though as yet the set of plant traits that should be measured by automated systems is not well defined. Methods capable of recovering generic representat... Read More about A patch-based approach to 3D plant shoot phenotyping.

Three-dimensional reconstruction of plant shoots from multiple images using an active vision system (2015)
Journal Article
Gibbs, J., Pound, M. P., Wells, D. M., Murchie, E. H., French, A. P., & Pridmore, T. P. (2015). Three-dimensional reconstruction of plant shoots from multiple images using an active vision system

The reconstruction of 3D models of plant shoots is a challenging problem central to the emerging discipline of plant phenomics – the quantitative measurement of plant structure and function. Current approaches are, however, often limited by the use o... Read More about Three-dimensional reconstruction of plant shoots from multiple images using an active vision system.

Quantification of Fluorescent Reporters in Plant Cells (2014)
Book Chapter
Pound, M., French, A. P., & Wells, D. M. (2015). Quantification of Fluorescent Reporters in Plant Cells. In J. M. Estevez (Ed.), Plant Cell Expansion: Methods and Protocols (123-131). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4939-1902-4_11

© Springer Science+Business Media New York 2015. Fluorescent reporters are powerful tools for plant research. Many studies require accurate determination of fluorescence intensity and localization. Here, we describe protocols for the quantification o... Read More about Quantification of Fluorescent Reporters in Plant Cells.

Systems Analysis of Auxin Transport in the Arabidopsis Root Apex (2014)
Journal Article
Band, L. R., Wells, D. M., Fozard, J. A., Ghetiu, T., French, A. P., Pound, M. P., …Bennett, M. J. (2014). Systems Analysis of Auxin Transport in the Arabidopsis Root Apex. Plant Cell, 26(3), 862-875. https://doi.org/10.1105/tpc.113.119495

Auxin is a key regulator of plant growth and development. Within the root tip, auxin distribution plays a crucial role specifying developmental zones and coordinating tropic responses. Determining how the organ-scale auxin pattern is regulated at the... Read More about Systems Analysis of Auxin Transport in the Arabidopsis Root Apex.
