In the fight against illegal logging, it has a more necessary and impactful application. Identifying a wood sample to genus or species level is difficult, expensive and time-consuming, even when using the most recent methods, resulting in a growing need for a readily accessible and field-applicable method for scientific wood identification. Providing fast results and ease of use, computer vision-based technology is an economically accessible option currently applied to meet the demand for automated wood identification. However, despite the promising characteristics and accurate results of this method, it remains a niche research area in wood sciences and is little known in other fields of application such as cultural heritage. To share the results and applicability of computer vision-based wood identification, this paper reviews the most frequently cited and relevant published research based on computer vision and machine learning techniques, aiming to facilitate and promote the use of this technology in research and encourage its application among end-users who need quick and reliable results.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/f13122041","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,1]],"date-time":"2022-12-01T01:54:31Z","timestamp":1669859671000},"page":"2041","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["Computer Vision-Based Wood Identification: A Review"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7430-2912","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jos\u00e9","family":"Silva","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Center for the Science and Technology of the Arts, School of Arts, Universidade Cat\u00f3lica Portuguesa, 4169-005 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"given":"Rui","family":"Bordalo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Center for the Science and Technology of the Arts, School of Arts, Universidade Cat\u00f3lica Portuguesa, 4169-005 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9489-9904","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jos\u00e9","family":"Pissarra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Green UPorto and Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences, University of Porto, 4169-005 Porto, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1907-0992","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Paloma","family":"de Palacios","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Natural Systems and Resources, School of Forestry and Natural Environment Engineering, Universidad Polit\u00e9cnica de Madrid, 28040 Madrid, Spain"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"May, C.
