Lightweight GAN-Assisted Class Imbalance Mitigation for Apple Flower Bud Detection by Wenan Yuan, Peng Li

“…Generative adversarial networks (GANs), an emerging deep learning research topic, are able to learn from existing data distributions and generate similar synthetic data, which might serve as valid training data for improving object detectors. The current study investigated the utility of lightweight unconditional GAN in addressing weak object detector class performance by incorporating synthetic data into real data for model retraining, under an agricultural context. …”
