Plant is 360 ° of rotations in the device described in the step a, and digital camera (1) is for moving up and down, and white background plate (4) is for moving forward and backward.
The shooting height of digital camera in the device described in the step a (1) needs to adjust according to the height of the plant (3) of being taken pictures, and shooting angle is that 0-360 ° of any one angle, the plant (3) of being taken pictures and the distance between the white background plate (4) are 100cm.
Of the present inventionly a kind ofly obtain the method for shrub branch length based on the digital image technology, the related device of the method is to comprise the target plant that will measure, can take pictures continuously and obtain the digital camera of plant image, fixing five parts of demarcation thing of telescopic tripod, white background plate and the known length of camera; Target plant tested in the method is fixed, plant can 360 ° of rotations, but can not all around move up and down, digital camera is the distance that can move up and down to adjust between shooting height and the object, the white background plate can move forward and backward in order to the distance between adjustment and the shooting plant, and background board can be according to the hat width of cloth size and the selection of highly carrying out size of the plant that is taken; In addition, must enclose the scale of known exact length on the background board, in order to calculate branch length according to the plant branching fractal characteristic parameter.Apparatus structure in the method for the present invention is simple, makes and operate also to be easier to.
A kind of method of obtaining the shrub branch length based on the digital image technology of the present invention, the plant that the method at first will be taken is placed between the digital camera and white background plate that has fixed, adjust suitable shooting height and distance, carry out the shooting of digital image;
Utilize and adopt image processing software that the image that obtains is carried out cutting, be converted into binary map; Definition based on box counting dimension in the fractal theory, if the length of side of image is the L(image length, the pixel that comprises some), take r as the little foursquare length of side (its value is from 1 to L), calculate the foursquare quantity take the length of side as r that different r value situation hypographs intercepts, and be designated as N (r); Along with the variation of r from 1 to L, N (r) can get a series of different value, and the value of N (r) increases gradually along with the minimizing of r; After obtaining r and N (r) value, respectively with log (r) and log (N (r)) as independent variable and dependent variable, carry out the linear regression analysis of log (r) and log (N (r)), obtain equation:
log(N(r))=-F dlog(r)+log(k)
In the formula: K is definite value (intercept), F dBe the fractal dimension (slope) of the plant of trying to achieve; F dSubtle change generally can reflect and the rapid variation of phytomorph can be used as the description of different growth conditionss and age plant branching and growth characteristics;
Calculate plant fractal characteristics value F dBe to adopt VC++ in the compiling of the programmed method realization plant fractal characteristic parameter calculation procedure of windows platform Based on Object-Oriented Technology, utilize the program that compiles to obtain fractal dimension and the intercept of the corresponding plant branching of image;
According to the verification experimental verification result, showing does not have preferably correlativity between fractal dimension and the plant branching length, and has significant linear dependence between fractal intercept and the plant branching length; Branch length and fractal intercept match equation of linear regression according to actual measurement utilize this equation just can have in order to calculating the branch length of different fractal characteristic kindred plants.
