Abstract
Implementations are described herein for realistic plant growth modeling and various applications thereof. In various implementations, a plurality of two-dimensional (2D) digital images that capture, over time, one or more of a particular type of plant based on one or more machine learning models to generate output, may be processed. The output may be analyzed to extract temporal features that capture change over time to one or more structural features of the particular type of plant. Based on the captured temporal features, a first parameter subspace of whole plant parameters may be learned, wherein the whole plant parameters are usable to generate a three-dimensional (3D) growth model that realistically simulates growth of the particular type of plant over time. Based on the first parameter subspace, one or more 3D growth models that simulate growth of the particular type of plant may be non-deterministically generated and used for various purposes.
