Object Recognition

Due to increase quality in the images provided by UAVs, research is moving towards find automatized ways to pre-process them and classify objects, count them, assess whether it is likely a crop is healthy or not, etc.

Algorithms for Object Based Image Analysis (OBIA), machine vision and machine learning are the way to go.
