Research summary
AI-generated

Zhihang Song's work spans two main areas: using imaging and machine learning to detect plant stress and disease (e.g., hyperspectral imaging for nutrient deficiency and plant disease detection, drone-based field phenotyping), and developing methods for autonomous driving systems, especially synthetic training data, object detection, and sensor fusion. A few additional publications touch on unrelated topics like dental orthodontics and data center cooling. This suggests a research profile bridging agricultural sensing/AI and autonomous vehicle perception systems.
