Resumen
In the marine ecological environment, marine microalgae is an important photosynthetic autotrophic organism, which can carry out photosynthesis and absorb carbon dioxide. With the increasingly serious eutrophication of the water body, under certain environmental factors, the rapid propagation of some algae in the water body gradually forms a harmful bloom, which damages the water environment. Therefore, how to identify the beneficial algae and harmful algae quickly and accurately has gradually become the key to solve the problem. There are more than 30,000 species of marine microalgae in the world, and the sample data are few and the characteristics are not obvious. Many of the algae are similar in shape and difficult to distinguish. The few-shot learning task is very challenging. By training very few labeled samples, the deep learning model has excellent recognition ability. Meanwhile, the few-shot classification method based on metric learning has attracted considerable attention. In this paper, in order to make full use of image features and improve the generalization ability of the model, a multi-scale local feature fusion algorithm was proposed to classify marine microalgae with few shots. First, the input image is gridded and multiscale processed, and then it is sent to the CTM category traversal module for feature extraction to obtain local features. A local feature fusion module based on the SE-NET self-attention mechanism is designed to obtain local enhanced features containing global information to improve the generalization ability of the model. Classification is realized by calculating the distance between the sample feature vector of the query set and the prototype of the support set. Under the settings of 5-way 1-shot and 5-way 5-shot, the classification accuracy of the proposed method is improved by 6.08% and 5.5%, respectively. It provides a new idea for microalgae identification and a new opportunity for the sustainable development of new energy.
