Abstract
The study of plants in space plays an important role in serving astronauts. Automatic segmentation of space plant image (SPI) provides an effective method for studying plants, and many plant segmentation methods have been proposed. However, segmentation of SPI is still challenging. Because the number of SPI is small, which greatly increases the difficulty in model training (especially deep-network-based model). For dealing with this problem, we propose a plant segmentation method based on a generative adversarial network. Our method consists of a generative network (GN) and a discriminant network (DN). The GN firstly extracts features from an input image, and then generates a feature map by developing multiple convolution and deconvolution layers. The DN merges the feature map with an actual plant image, and then computes a segmentation result by a deep convolutional network. In DN, the addition of the feature map improves segmentation accuracy of DN, and reduces the requirements of training images during training DN. Several experiments are made, and the experimental results show that our method performs well when a small number of training images is provided for model training.
