Agricultural greenhouse plant images with complicated scenes are difficult to precisely manually label. The appearance of leaf disease spots and mosses increases the difficulty in plant segmentation. Considering these problems, this paper proposed a statistical image segmentation algorithm MSBS-LDA (Mean-shift Bandwidths Searching Latent Dirichlet Allocation), which can perform unsupervised segmentation of greenhouse plants. The main idea of the algorithm is to take advantage of the language model LDA (Latent Dirichlet Allocation) to deal with image segmentation based on the design of spatial documents. The maximum points of probability density function in image space are mapped as documents and Mean-shift is utilized to fulfill the word-document assignment. The proportion of the first major word in word frequency statistics determines the coordinate space bandwidth, and the spatial LDA segmentation procedure iteratively searches for optimal color space bandwidth in the light of the LUV distances between classes. In view of the fruits in plant segmentation result and the ever-changing illumination condition in greenhouses, an improved leaf segmentation method based on watershed is proposed to further segment the leaves. Experiment results show that the proposed methods can segment greenhouse plants and leaves in an unsupervised way and obtain a high segmentation accuracy together with an effective extraction of the fruit part.

Deep neural networks provide remarkable performances on supervised learning tasks with extensive collections of labeled data. However, creating such large well-annotated data sets requires a considerable amount of resources, time and effort, especially for underwater images data sets such as corals and marine animals. Therefore, the overreliance on labels is one of the main obstacles for widespread applications of deep learning methods. In order to overcome this need for large annotated dataset, this paper proposes a label-efficient deep learning framework for image segmentation using only very sparse point-supervision. Our approach employs a latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) with spatial coherence on feature space to iteratively generate pseudo labels. The method requires, as an initial condition, a Wide Residual Network (WRN) trained with sparse labels and mutual information constraints. The proposed method is evaluated on the sparsely labeled coral image data set collected from the Pulley Ridge region in the Gulf of Mexico. Experiments show that our method can improve image segmentation performance against sparsely labeled samples and achieves better results compared with other semi-supervised approaches.

Similarity View is an application for visually comparing and exploring multiple models of text and collection of document. Friendbook finds ways of life of clients from client driven sensor information, measures the closeness of ways of life amongst clients, and prescribes companions to clients if their ways of life have high likeness. Roused by demonstrate a clients day by day life as life records, from their ways of life are separated by utilizing the Latent Dirichlet Allocation Algorithm. Manual techniques can't be utilized for checking research papers, as the doled out commentator may have lacking learning in the exploration disciplines. For different subjective views, causing possible misinterpretations. An urgent need for an effective and feasible approach to check the submitted research papers with support of automated software. A method like text mining method come to solve the problem of automatically checking the research papers semantically. The proposed method to finding the proper similarity of text from the collection of documents by using Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) algorithm and Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) with synonym algorithm which is used to find synonyms of text index wise by using the English wordnet dictionary, another algorithm is LSA without synonym used to find the similarity of text based on index. LSA with synonym rate of accuracy is greater when the synonym are consider for matching.
