First steps in translating human cognitive processes of cane pruning grapevines into AI rules for automated robotic pruning

Cane pruning of grapevines is a skilled task for which, internationally, there is a dire shortage of human pruners. As part of a larger project developing an automated robotic pruner, we have used artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to create an expert system for selecting new canes and cutting...
