To mitigate the influence of temperature fluctuations on the accuracy of SSC detection in fruits, using watermelon as an example, this study presents a knowledge-guided temperature correction method utilizing one-dimensional convolutional neural networks (1D-CNN). This method consists of two stages: the first stage involves utilizing 1D-CNN models and gradient-weighted class activation mapping (Grad-CAM) method to acquire gradient-weighted features correlating with temperature. The second stage involves mapping these features and integrating them with the original Vis/NIR spectrum, and then train and test the partial least squares (PLS) model. This knowledge-guided method can identify wavelength bands with high temperature correlation in the Vis/NIR spectra, offering valuable guidance for spectral data processing. The performance of the PLS model constructed using the 15 °C spectrum guided by this method is superior to that of the global model, and can reduce the root mean square error of the prediction set (RMSEP) to 0.324°Brix, which is 32.5 % lower than the RMSEP of the global model (0.480°Brix).

However, due to defect diversity and complexity, existing methods focused on parameter and data enhancement have limitations in detection and segmentation. Therefore, this study proposed a citrus surface defect segmentation model guided by prior features, named PrioriFormer. The model extracted texture features, boundary features, and superpixel features that were crucial for defect detection and segmentation, as priori features. A Priori Feature Fusion Module (PFFM) was designed to integrate the priori features, thereby establishing a priori feature branch. Then the priori feature branch was integrated into the baseline model SegFormer, with the objective of enhancing key feature learning capacity of the model. Finally, the effectiveness of the priori features in enhancing the performance of the model was demonstrated through the implementation of specific experiments. The result showed that PrioriFormer achieved an mPA (mean Pixel Accuracy), mIoU (mean Intersection over Union), and Dice Coefficient of 91.0 %, 85.8 %, and 91.0 %, respectively. Compared to other semantic segmentation models, the proposed model has achieved the best performance. The model parameters of PrioriFormer have only increase by 2.7 % in comparison to the baseline model, while the mIoU has improved by 3.3 %, indicating that the improvement of segmentation performance had less dependence on model parameters. Even when trained on few data, PrioriFormer maintained the high segmentation performance, with the reduction of mIoU not exceeding 4.2 %. This demonstrated the strong feature learning ability of the model in scenarios with limited data. Furthermore, validation on external datasets confirmed PrioriFormer's superior performance and adaptability to different tasks.

The study reveals that research on RS-based SOM monitoring has entered a rapid growth phase since 2018, with China and the United States as the main contributors and an extensive international cooperation network. In model construction, high frequency covariates such as soil pH, precipitation, temperature, and topography significantly improved the prediction accuracy. Data preprocessing methods such as Standard Normal Variables (SNV), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and Multiple Scattering Correction (MSC) enhanced data consistency. Traditional statistical models are gradually being replaced by nonlinear machine learning and deep learning methods (CNN, XGBoost, andStacking), which are particularly good at handling complex high-dimensional data. Regional spectral libraries (OzSoil and AfSIS) excel in local accuracy, while global spectral libraries (ISRIC and LUCAS) are more suitable for cross-region modeling, and the migration learning technique effectively improves the model generalization ability in low data regions. Integrated models (CNN-LSTM and GAN) have significant advantages in capturing the spatial and temporal dynamics of SOMs, and uncertainty quantification methods (Bayesian inference, Monte Carlo simulation) enhance the reliability of the models in multi-source data and data-scarce scenarios.
