The document aims to develop an image processing algorithm for accurate pest detection, specifically targeting small worms that blend with leaves and are visible primarily at night. It outlines challenges such as the worms' size and color, along with the use of an infrared camera for capturing images. The document seeks suggestions for effective image processing methods to address these challenges.

1. Help
The goal is to create an image processing algorithm for the purpose of an accurate pest detection
system
the problem is:
1. The worm is measured to be as small as 1cm
2. The worm comes in white-green color but more or less blends well with the leaves from the
naked eye far away
3. The photos of the worms are taken at night with an IP camera equipped with IR cut for night
photos as the worms pile up at midnight but leaves at daylight.
What image processing methods can i used?
