Plant Disease Detection From Images Using Deep Learning Techniques based on the Internet Of Things
Main Article Content
Abstract
Plant disease identification and evaluation in a timely and accurate manner is crucial for efficient farming operations for crop yield optimization. Employing the most recent advances in technology, specifically the combination of deep learning and the Internet of Things (IoT), this paper offers an efficient approach to identifying plant diseases. We propose a transfer learning-based deep learning classification model which makes use of pre-trained models including CNN, AlexNet, ResNet, InceptionV3, and VGG-16. To provide wider accessibility, high-resolution images of tomato plant leaves displaying disease symptoms are gathered from a dataset and saved in cloud storage using Internet of Things devices. Following the image extraction from the cloud, images are preprocessed using data argumentation, normalization, color space conversion, background removal, and noise removal. Different plant disease classes are classified using the pre-trained models CNN, AlexNet, ResNet, InceptionV3, and VGG-16. The deep learning models' accuracy is increased using the transfer learning technique, which also cuts down on the workout duration. The VGG-16 model outperforms other models in the experiment, recognizing plant illnesses with an astounding accuracy of 93.7% on average, proving the efficacy of the suggested approach. This novel method has the potential to transform the identification of plant diseases and support sustainable farming methods.
