Abstract Rice diseases can adversely affect both the yield and quality of rice crops, leading to the increased use of pesticides and environmental pollution. Accurate detection of rice diseases in natural environments is crucial for both operational efficiency and quality assurance. Deep learning-based disease identification technologies have shown promise in automatically discerning disease types. However, effectively extracting early disease features in natural environments remains a challenging problem. To address this issue, this study proposes the YOLO-CRD method. This research selected images of common rice diseases, primarily bakanae disease, bacterial brown spot, leaf rice fever, and dry… More >

Abstract In rice production, the prevention and management of pests and diseases have always received special attention. Traditional methods require human experts, which is costly and time-consuming. Due to the complexity of the structure of rice diseases and pests, quickly and reliably recognizing and locating them is difficult. Recently, deep learning technology has been employed to detect and identify rice diseases and pests. This paper introduces common publicly available datasets; summarizes the applications on rice diseases and pests from the aspects of image recognition, object detection, image segmentation, attention mechanism, and few-shot learning methods according to More >

Abstract Accurate identification of rice diseases is crucial for controlling diseases and improving rice yield. To improve the classification accuracy of rice diseases, this paper proposed a classification and identification method based on an improved ShuffleNet V2 (GE-ShuffleNet) model. Firstly, the Ghost module is used to replace the convolution in the two basic unit modules of ShuffleNet V2, and the unimportant convolution is deleted from the two basic unit modules of ShuffleNet V2. The Hardswish activation function is applied to replace the ReLU activation function to improve the identification accuracy of the model. Secondly, an effective… More >
