Abstract


Abstract: Nitrogen content is an important indicator to characterize the growth status of rice.  UAV hyperspectral remote sensing technology was used to obtain the nitrogen content of rice canopy at regional scale in a timely manner.  To improve the accuracy of high-spectral inversion of rice canopy nitrogen content, the marine predators algorithm (MPA) was used to downscale the hyperspectral information in the range of 400 nm to 1000 nm by using the UAV hyperspectral image data and the synchronously measured rice canopy nitrogen content as the data source, from which the hyperspectral characteristic variables for rice nitrogen content inversion modelling were extracted.  And using the dimensionality reduction variables as the data base, two neural network inversion methods, including extreme learning machines (ELM), genetic algorithm optimization for extreme learning machines (GA-ELM), were used to establish the rice nitrogen content drone hyperspectral remote sensing inversion model, and the results showed that: (1) The hyperspectral range from 400 nm to 1000 nm was dimensionally reduced by MPA, and finally the continuous hyperspectral reflectance information was dimensionally reduced to four discrete hyperspectral feature wavelengths, 570, 723, 811 and 987 nm for subsequent inversion modeling of rice nitrogen content.  (2) In the models adopted in this study, MPA-GA-ELM has the highest accuracy, where the R2 of training data, the R2 of test data, the RMSE of training data, and the RMSE of test data were 07984, 0.7357, 0.4615, 0.4878, respectively.  This study provides data support and application basis for inverse UAV remote sensing diagnosis of nitrogen content in rice.
