Abstract In agriculture, rice plant disease diagnosis has become a challenging issue, and early identification of this disease can avoid huge loss incurred from less crop productivity. Some of the recently-developed computer vision and Deep Learning (DL) approaches can be commonly employed in designing effective models for rice plant disease detection and classification processes. With this motivation, the current research work devises an Efficient Deep Learning based Fusion Model for Rice Plant Disease (EDLFM-RPD) detection and classification. The aim of the proposed EDLFM-RPD technique is to detect and classify different kinds of rice plant diseases in… More >

Abstract Precision Agriculture is a concept of farm management which makes use of IoT and networking concepts to improve the crop. Plant diseases are one of the underlying causes in the decrease in the number of quantity and quality of the farming crops. Recognition of diseases from the plant images is an active research topic which makes use of machine learning (ML) approaches. A novel deep neural network (DNN) classification model is proposed for the identification of paddy leaf disease using plant image data. Classification errors were minimized by optimizing weights and biases in the DNN… More >
