Apple Counting Analysis in Complex Scenes — Machine Vision Course Project (Team Lead)
Designed an agricultural computer-vision image counting solution for complex scenes involving occlusion, lighting variation, and dense fruit clusters, emphasizing how target definition and data distribution affect model performance. Built and tested a lightweight apple counting model and performed ablation studies to compare baseline and attention-augmented variants. Used Grad-CAM visualization and prediction-error distribution analysis to identify key failure sources affecting reliable counting outputs. • Defined and reviewed image counting targets under challenging conditions (occlusion, reflections, background interference) • Conducted ablation experiments (Baseline, Gate, CBAM, Full) to evaluate model components • Applied Grad-CAM and error distribution analysis to interpret mispredictions • Coordinated team task breakdown, experiment documentation, and result review as team lead
