タイトル AI-LyD: An AI-Driven System Approach to Combatting Spotted Lanternfly Proliferation Through Behavioral Analysis.
ジャーナル Insects
Abstract The spotted lanternfly (SLF, Lycorma delicatula) is an invasive planthopper causing severe agricultural and environmental damage in 20 U.S. states. SLF control remains constrained by (1) overreliance on broad-spectrum pesticides that harm nearby ecosystems, (2) inefficiency and ecological risk of alternative methods, and (3) underutilization of SLF behavioral traits and artificial intelligence (AI) in IPM. This study introduces AI-LyD, an AI-driven IPM framework integrating behavioral ecology, predictive modeling, image-based detection, and low-cost physical controls. Incorporating SLF behavioral constraints, including cold-exposure requirements for egg hatching, into ecological models improved prediction accuracy (AUC = 0.821, Sensitivity = 0.888, Kappa = 0.642) and reconstructed SLF distributions consistent with current proliferation trends. A YOLO-based detection model leveraging SLF clustering behavior improved identification accuracy from 84% to 96% and reduced false positives from 42% to 8% in real-world drone-collected imagery. Exploiting SLF crawling, jumping, and hydrophobic behaviors, the novel Aquabex water-moat device with an optimized 60° opening trapped 85% of Stage I-IV nymphs and reduced adult invasions by 67%, at an estimated cost below USD $0.50 per unit. Field deployments across four locations in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, achieved a 91% population reduction (95% CI: 90.1-92.0%). Together, these results establish AI-LyD as the first operational, scalable SLF IPM system, and this paradigm can be applied to controlling other invasive species.
