Abstract
This research implements Genetic Programming to design a spectral index that allows the automated detection of the species Phoradendron Velutinum because it is a pest that leads to the detriment of forest health causing serious damage to the host trees. Employing multispectral aerial images taken in the field, pre-processed and selected for the creation of a set of masks with the presence of the pest, together with the use of different terminals and functions, it was possible to obtain an algorithm capable of classifying mistletoe with 96% overall accuracy and a fitness value (Weighted Cohen’s Kappa = 0.45) on the test data set. Additionally, a comparison was made with the Structure Intensive Pigment Index 2—SIPI2 for the detection of P. velutinum, the results show that SIPI2 does not allow the correct identification of this particular pest.
