To improve the accuracy of the field-road segmentation, this study proposed an XGBoost model based on dual feature extraction and recursive feature elimination called DR-XGBoost. DR-XGBoost takes only a small amount of agricultural machine trajectory features as input. Firstly, the model adopted the dual feature extraction method we designed to rapidly expand the number of features and then adequately extract local trajectory features by the time window and feature extraction operator. Secondly, the model applies the recursive feature elimination algorithm to eliminate redundant features from the perspective of the model segmentation effect and thus reduce the computational consumption of model training. Thirdly, it trains XGBoost to complete the trajectory segmentation. To evaluate the effectiveness of DR-XGBoost, we conducted a series of experiments on a real trajectory dataset of agricultural machines. The model achieves a 98.2% Macro-F1 score on the dataset, which is 10.9% higher than the previous state-of-art. The proposal of DR-XGBoost fills the knowledge gap of trajectory feature extraction for agricultural machinery and provides a reasonable and effective feature selection scheme for the field-road segmentation problem.

Box-Behnken design experiments were carried out with negative pressure, rotational speed, and hole diameter as the experimental factors. The optimal parameter combination was achieved when the negative pressure was 3.96 kPa, the rotational speed of the seeding plate was 1.49 rad/s and the hole diameter was 1.10 mm. The qualification rate of inner, middle, and outer rings were 87.580%, 90.548%, and 90.117%, respectively, and the miss seeding rate of inner, middle, and outer rings were 10.915%, 7.139%, and 5.920%, respectively.

The proposed ANN model can achieve high estimation accuracy with small data requirement. In the study, the proposed ANN model is implemented to estimate the R&M costs using a sample of locally-made rice combine harvesters. The model inputs are geographical regions, harvest area, and curve fitting coefficients related to historical cost data; and the ANN output is the estimated R&M cost. Multilayer feed-forward is adopted as the processing algorithm and Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation learning as the training algorithm. The R&M costs are estimated using the ANN-based model, and results are compared with those of conventional mathematical estimation model. The results reveal that the percentage error between the conventional and ANN-based estimation models is below 1%, indicating the proposed ANN model’s high predictive accuracy. The proposed ANN-based model is useful for setting the service rates of agricultural machinery, given the significance of R&M cost in profitability. The novelty of this research lies in the use of curve-fitting coefficients in the ANN-based estimation model to improve estimation accuracy. Besides, the proposed ANN model could be further developed into web-based applications using a programming language to enable ease of use and greater user accessibility. Moreover, with minor modifications, the ANN estimation model is also applicable to other geographical areas and tractors or combine harvesters of different countries of origin.","PeriodicalId":13895,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Agricultural and Biological Engineering","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86339653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
