Neural network based on convolution and self-attention fusion mechanism for plant leaves disease recognition

In agriculture, early and timely detection and identification of plant disease categories can help growers take timely countermeasures. The use of deep learning techniques for plant disease category detection prevents further spread of the disease and helps to prevent crop production losses. In this paper, Based on the Next-Vit neural network model, we proposed a lightweight neural network CAST-Net based on the combination of convolution and self-attention, and we adopted self-distillation based on this model to achieve increased accuracy in classifying plant leaf diseases while reducing the number of model parameters and flops. Our model and method achieved 98.4% accuracy on the tomato subset of the data-enhanced PlantVillage dataset, a 4.9% improvement over the Next-Vit model, and 99.0% accuracy on the full PlantVillage set, a 6.9% improvement over the Next-Vit model. We also propose a new dynamic learning rate function that is applied to the training phase to prevent the loss from reaching the optimal value. The results show that our model and method have higher accuracy, fewer parameters, shorter training time and lower computational complexity than existing models.

Intelligent Plant Leaf Disease Detection Using Generative Adversarial Networks: a Case-study of Cassava Leaves

Background Cassava leaf disease detection is a major problem since it is very difficult to identify the disease in naked-eye observation and even experts such as agricultural scientists can fail in this task. The approach we use in this paper has the potential to overcome this problem. Materials and Methods In this, we propose an approach based on artificial intelligence for leaf disease detection using deep learning with generative adversarial networks (GAN). Our experimental study used a dataset including 12880 cassava leaf pictures generated using CycleGAN showing five major disease classes. In order to avoid overfitting, a GAN architecture is proposed for data augmentation using two networks, i.e., a Generator and a Discriminator. The generator is trained to generate similar data samples as the original data Results The proposed approach achieved an accuracy of 99.51% for the classification of healthy or unhealthy leaf images, which outperformed existing methods. Discussion The discriminator is trained to distinguish between the unique and generated sample records, as actual or fake. To classify cassava images into five categories of diseases, a combination of machine learning models has been trained on original and generated images. The proposed approach showed better accuracy compared to the existing methods. Conclusion The proposed deep learning-based method can be used as a tool for early disease diagnosis in cassava leaf disease detection and classification

Plant Leaf Disease Detection using CNN

Abstract— Plants and crops that are infected by pests have an impact on the country's agricultural production. Usually, farmers or professionals keep a close eye on the plants in order to discover and identify diseases. However, this procedure is frequently time- consuming costly, andimprecise. Plant disease detection can be done by looking for a spot on the diseased plant's leaves. The goal of this paper is to create a Disease Recognition Model that is supported by leaf image classification. To detect plant diseases, we are utilizing image processing with a Convolution neural network (CNN). A convolutional neural network(CNN) is a form of artificial neural network that is specifically intended to process pixel input and is used in image recognition.Farmers do not expertise in leaf disease so they produce less production. Plant leaf diseases detection is the important because profit and loss are depends on production. Index Terms: Image processing,Crops,Support vector Machine,Plant disease,Classification.

Classification of Plant Leaf Disease Recognition Based on Self-Supervised Learning

Accurate identification of plant diseases is a critical task in agricultural production. The existing deep learning crop disease recognition methods require a large number of labeled images for training, limiting the implementation of large-scale detection. To overcome this limitation, this study explores the application of self-supervised learning (SSL) in plant disease recognition. We propose a new model that combines a masked autoencoder (MAE) and a convolutional block attention module (CBAM) to alleviate the harsh requirements of large amounts of labeled data. The performance of the model was validated on the CCMT dataset and our collected dataset. The results show that the improved model achieves an accuracy of 95.35% and 99.61%, recall of 96.2% and 98.51%, and F1 values of 95.52% and 98.62% on the CCMT dataset and our collected dataset, respectively. Compared with ResNet50, ViT, and MAE, the accuracies on the CCMT dataset improved by 1.2%, 0.7%, and 0.8%, respectively, and the accuracy of our collected dataset improved by 1.3%, 1.6%, and 0.6%, respectively. Through experiments on 21 leaf diseases (early blight, late blight, leaf blight, leaf spot, etc.) of five crops, namely, potato, maize, tomato, cashew, and cassava, our model achieved accurate and rapid detection of plant disease categories. This study provides a reference for research work and engineering applications in crop disease detection.

ERCP-Net: a channel extension residual structure and adaptive channel attention mechanism for plant leaf disease classification network

Plant leaf diseases are a major cause of plant mortality, especially in crops. Timely and accurately identifying disease types and implementing proper treatment measures in the early stages of leaf diseases are crucial for healthy plant growth. Traditional plant disease identification methods rely heavily on visual inspection by experts in plant pathology, which is time-consuming and requires a high level of expertise. So, this approach fails to gain widespread adoption. To overcome these challenges, we propose a channel extension residual structure and adaptive channel attention mechanism for plant leaf disease classification network (ERCP-Net). It consists of channel extension residual block (CER-Block), adaptive channel attention block (ACA-Block), and bidirectional information fusion block (BIF-Block). Meanwhile, an application for the real-time detection of plant leaf diseases is being created to assist precision agriculture in practical situations. Finally, experiments were conducted to compare our model with other state-of-the-art deep learning methods on the PlantVillage and AI Challenger 2018 datasets. Experimental results show that our model achieved an accuracy of 99.82% and 86.21%, respectively. Also, it demonstrates excellent robustness and scalability, highlighting its potential for practical implementation.

Enhancing plant leaf disease detection: Integrating krill herd optimization-surf features and deep belief network

A plant disease that attacks the leaf causes significant yield and market value losses. A professional plant pathologist should be able to visually identify the disease by looking at the affected plant leaves, but this is unlikely to result in a more accurate diagnosis. Disease symptoms should be immediately recognisable in order to stop the spread of the illness. To find plant diseases, steps should be taken using computer assisted technologies. Numerous methods for identifying plant diseases using machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) have been developed and tested in numerous studies. Machine learning has the disadvantages of having a small dataset, taking longer, and requiring more time for results interpretation. Deep learning is suggested as a solution to this. This study compares the effectiveness of both ML&DL for plant leaf disease identification with more recent investigations. The common deep learning technique involves utilising the Krill Herd Optimisation Algorithm (KHO) to segment images and the Speeded up Robust Features (SURF) to extract the images. The Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) then chooses the features. Then, a Deep Belief Network (DBN) can be used to classify the chosen image. Multiple diseases can be identified on the same leaf using this method. This study demonstrates that deep learning outperforms machine learning in terms of results. The outcome demonstrates that the deep learning method is superior for the diagnosis of plant disease when there is sufficient data available. Using this technique, the validity and consistency were also examined.

An Improved Detection Method for Crop & Fruit Leaf Disease under Real-Field Conditions

Using deep learning-based tools in the field of agriculture for the automatic detection of plant leaf diseases has been in place for many years. However, optimizing their use in the specific background of the agriculture field, in the presence of other leaves and the soil, is still an open challenge. This work presents a deep learning model based on YOLOv6s that incorporates (1) Gaussian error linear unit in the backbone, (2) efficient channel attention in the basic RepBlock, and (3) SCYLLA-Intersection Over Union (SIOU) loss function to improve the detection accuracy of the base model in real-field background conditions. Experiments were carried out on a self-collected dataset containing 3305 real-field images of cotton, wheat, and mango (healthy and diseased) leaves. The results show that the proposed model outperformed many state-of-the-art and recent models, including the base YOLOv6s, in terms of detection accuracy. It was also found that this improvement was achieved without any significant increase in the computational cost. Hence, the proposed model stood out as an effective technique to detect plant leaf diseases in real-field conditions without any increased computational burden.

An Artificial Intelligence Framework for Disease Detection in Potato Plants

Agricultural products are a fundamental necessity for every country. When plants are afflicted with diseases, it influences the country's agricultural productivity, as well as its economic resources. Diseases are an important problem for potato plants, causing potatoes to be rejected and resulting in financial losses. Viruses and diseases in potatoes and field plants can be missed with the naked eye, particularly in the early stages of cultivation. The use of modern instruments and technology at an early stage of disease diagnosis dramatically reduces costs. This study used deep learning techniques to categorize and detect plant leaf diseases in photos taken from the Plant Village dataset. The dataset consists of 20,636 photos of plants and their diseases. This study focused on potato plants because it is the most common type of plant in the world, particularly in Pakistan. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) methods were used to categorize plant leaf diseases into 15 classes, including three classes for healthy leaves and classes for several plant diseases such as fungal and bacterial infections, among others. The proposed models were trained and tested, achieving 98.29 and 98.029% accuracy, respectively.

Plant leaf disease detection using hybrid feature extraction techniques

Excessive yield losses are due to delayed identification of leaf diseases, resulting in lower farmer revenue. To address this, early and precise detection methods are crucial. Sunflower, a vital commercial crop in India for edible oil production, faces issues like leaf blight, downy mildew, powdery mildew, and leaf spot. Our research aims to create an algorithm that effectively identifies these diseases using hybrid feature extraction techniques. We compiled sunflower leaf images from village databases and farm visits. Initially, color images were converted to grayscale, and the noise was reduced using Gaussian filtering during image pre-processing. Disease-affected areas were segmented using edge-based approaches. Hybrid feature extraction was then employed to encompass color and texture-related attributes. The K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm facilitated disease classification. The proposed algorithm’s performance was benchmarked against SVM, RF and DT classifiers. Remarkably, our algorithm achieved exceptional accuracy: 98% for leaf blight, 97.3% for downy mildew, 95% for powdery mildew, and 96.5% for leaf spot detection. These results underscore the algorithm’s effectiveness in combating plant diseases and enhancing agricultural productivity.

Alpha-EIOU-YOLOv8: An Improved Algorithm for Rice Leaf Disease Detection

Early detection of plant leaf diseases is a major necessity for controlling the spread of infections and enhancing the quality of food crops. Recently, plant disease detection based on deep learning approaches has achieved better performance than current state-of-the-art methods. Hence, this paper utilized a convolutional neural network (CNN) to improve rice leaf disease detection efficiency. We present a modified YOLOv8, which replaces the original Box Loss function by our proposed combination of EIoU loss and α-IoU loss in order to improve the performance of the rice leaf disease detection system. A two-stage approach is proposed to achieve a high accuracy of rice leaf disease identification based on AI (artificial intelligence) algorithms. In the first stage, the images of rice leaf diseases in the field are automatically collected. Afterward, these image data are separated into blast leaf, leaf folder, and brown spot sets, respectively. In the second stage, after training the YOLOv8 model on our proposed image dataset, the trained model is deployed on IoT devices to detect and identify rice leaf diseases. In order to assess the performance of the proposed approach, a comparative study between our proposed method and the methods using YOLOv7 and YOLOv5 is conducted. The experimental results demonstrate that the accuracy of our proposed model in this research has reached up to 89.9% on the dataset of 3175 images with 2608 images for training, 326 images for validation, and 241 images for testing. It demonstrates that our proposed approach achieves a higher accuracy rate than existing approaches.

Image‐Feature Based Deep Learning Model for Plant Leaf Disease Detection

AbstractCurrently, everyone is facing significant difficulties with food scarcity. There may be several causes for this, but food loss is a well‐known issue. Specifically, crop losses bring on by plant and leaf diseases during farming operations. Plant disease is typically identified visually or through laboratory testing, which delays detection and reduces crop yields by the time it is finished. The wide use of smartphones along with recent advancements in computer vision has made it viable to diagnose any ailment by applying machine learning techniques. Smartphone‐assisted disease diagnosis is now a reality. In this study, a multi‐Support Vector Machine (SVM) model is used to detect four different diseases as well as healthy conditions of plant leaves. Using 13 feature vectors for each input, a total of 2400 leaves representing four distinct classes (four varieties) have been used to train and test the model. The experimental results give an average accuracy of 91.25% for diseased leaves detection and 99% accuracy for healthy leaves detection.
