An image dataset for analyzing tea picking behavior in tea plantations.

Tea is an important economic product in China, and tea picking is a key agricultural activity. As the practice of tea picking in China gradually shifts towards intelligent and mechanized methods, artificial intelligence recognition technology has become a crucial tool, showing great potential in recognizing large-scale tea picking operations and various picking behaviors. Constructing a comprehensive database is essential for these advancements. The newly developed Tea Garden Harvest Dataset offers several advantages that have a positive impact on tea garden management: 1) Enhanced image diversity: through advanced data augmentation techniques such as rotation, cropping, enhancement, and flipping, our dataset provides a rich variety of images. This diversity improves the model's ability to accurately recognize tea picking behaviors under different environments and conditions. 2) Precise annotations: every image in our dataset is meticulously annotated with boundary box coordinates, object categories, and sizes. This detailed annotation helps to better understand the target features, enhancing the model's learning process and overall performance. 3) Multi-Scale training capability: our dataset supports multi-scale training, allowing the model to adapt to targets of different sizes. This capability ensures versatility and accuracy in real-world applications, where objects may appear at varying distances and scales. This tea garden picking dataset not only fills the existing gap in the data related to tea picking in China but also makes a significant contribution to advancing intelligent tea picking practices. By leveraging its unique advantages, this dataset becomes a powerful resource for tea garden management, promoting increased efficiency, accuracy, and productivity in tea production.
