Abstract

In this paper we consider the problem of estimating chlorophyll content in vegetation using an experimental optical method from noisy spectral data. It is shown that the quantitative analysis of the spectral curves for the reflection of plant leaves may be the basis for development of new methods for interpretation of the data obtained by the remote measurement of plants. A mathematical model of vegetation reflectance is proposed to estimate the chlorophyll concentration from spectral data. Estimates are defined as minimizers of penalized cost functionals with sequential quadratic programming (SQP) methods. An estimation tool is related to the local scoring procedure for an generalized additive model. Experimental and simulation results are shown for different agricultural plants using a functional parametric fitting of spectral curves.
