Abstract

This paper is an overview of the latest advancements of image recognition for fruit counting and yield estimation. Considering this domain is developing rapidly, we have considered the cutting-edge literature in the field, for the last 5 years, focused on the task of yield estimation by detecting and counting fruit in the tree canopy. This is a much more complex task than the classification of fruit post-harvesting, which has been more widely reviewed. Moreover, we identify the major challenges and propose the next steps for advancing this research field.
