Design of automatic sorting system based on capsule neural network

Abstract

Abstract. This paper proposes a vegetable disease classification system based on Capsule Neural Network (CapsNet), which uses the visual recognition mechanism of deep learning algorithms to improve the efficiency and accuracy of agricultural disease recognition. The CapsNet algorithm outperforms traditional Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) in few-shot learning and generalization due to its unique capsule structure and dynamic routing mechanism. Experimental results show that the proposed system performs well in the accuracy, robustness, and model interpretation of image recognition, and can accurately identify diseases even in the case of poor image quality or noise and occlusion. In addition, the embedded system of this experiment includes an image acquisition module, an algorithm core module, and a logic control module, which realizes the automation of the whole process from image acquisition to recognition result display. This study also discusses the scalability and adaptability of the system, as well as the future application prospects in agricultural intelligence and automation. It is expected that CapsNet will play a more critical role in artificial intelligence, especially in agrarian automation and smart agriculture.
