Biomass.Estimation: Fresh Weight Determination from the Projected Area of the Plant

Description

The projected area obtained from the visual image of the plant is used as input to the machine learning model (Linear Model, Artificial Neural Network, and Support Vector Regression) to determine the plant's fresh weight.

Usage

Biomass.Estimation(Biomass, PA, model = c("lm", "ANN", "SVM"), newPA)

Arguments

Biomass

ground truth fresh biomass of the above ground plant parts for the model development

PA

a numeric value representing projected area (in cm square) of the above ground plant parts from the visual image of the plant

model

the applied machine learning model i.e., "lm" or, "ANN" or,"SVM"

newPA

out of sample projected area (in cm square) of the above ground plant parts from the visual image of the plant

Value

Fresh weight in gm
