The 4-Dimensional Plant: Effects of Wind-Induced Canopy Movement on Light Fluctuations and Photosynthesis (2016)
Journal Article
Burgess, A. J., Retkute, R., Preston, S. P., Jensen, O. E., Pound, M. P., Pridmore, T. P., & Murchie, E. H. (2016). The 4-Dimensional Plant: Effects of Wind-Induced Canopy Movement on Light Fluctuations and Photosynthesis. Frontiers in Plant Science, 7(1392), https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2016.01392

Physical perturbation of a plant canopy brought about by wind is a ubiquitous phenomenon and yet its biological importance has often been overlooked. This is partly due to the complexity of the issue at hand: wind-induced movement (or mechanical exci...

Approaches to three-dimensional reconstruction of plant shoot topology and geometry (2016)
Journal Article
Gibbs, J., Pound, M. P., French, A. P., Wells, D. M., Murchie, E. H., & Pridmore, T. P. (2016). Approaches to three-dimensional reconstruction of plant shoot topology and geometry. Functional Plant Biology, 44(1), 62-75. https://doi.org/10.1071/FP16167

There are currently 805 million people classified as chronically undernourished, and yet the World’s population is still increasing. At the same time, global warming is causing more frequent and severe flooding and drought, thus destroying crops and...

Deep Machine Learning provides state-of-the-art performance in image-based plant phenotyping (2016)
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.
