Leaf segmentation is crucial for plant recognition, especially for tree species identification. In natural environments, leaf segmentation can be very challenging due to the lack of prior information about leaves and the variability of backgrounds. In typical applications, supervised algorithms often require pixel-level annotation of regions, which can be labour-intensive and limited to identifying plant species using pre-labelled samples. On the other hand, traditional unsupervised image segmentation algorithms require specialised parameter tuning for leaf images to achieve optimal results. T...
