Description
<p dir="ltr">Using root mealybugs (Hemiptera: Rhizoecidae) as a test case, this study gathered high-resolution extended depth of field images from slide-mounted museum specimens and trained a convolutional neural network (CNN) to identify and distinguish among 16 species that are encountered as agricultural pests in plant quarantine or greenhouses. A pretrained EfficientNetV2-M model was trained using BioEncoder. The dataset contained 1,607 images, with 41 to 239 images per category.
Performance was improved through the adoption of augmentation techniques. The purpose of study was to identify best practices for further development of an identification tool to support experts and non-experts alike in the identification of challenging slide-mounted insect taxa.</p><p dir="ltr">Supplementary data includes the following:</p><p dir="ltr">S1 Table. Summary of images used in CNN model testing.
