Abstract:

The advancement in the field of precision agriculture has opened doors for site-specific weed management. There is a growing need to control the amount of herbicide sprayed on weeds to reduce economic and environmental losses. In the field of precision agriculture, incorporation of machine learning techniques has enabled the farmers to automate the process of controlling weed using an adequate number of herbicides for different species in-situ. This study aims to explore various parameters of Computer Vision and Machine Learning algorithms and methods used by researchers to develop Artificial Intelligence models to remove weeds from agricultural fields. More than twenty state-of-the-art algorithms have been studied in this paper. We categorized these algorithms into five categories based on different features i.e. visual, shape, spatial, and spectral. At the end of this study, a comprehensive table is presented containing details of algorithms in terms of limitations and accuracy.
