Abstract Plant diseases must be identified as soon as possible since they have an impact on the growth of the corresponding species. Consequently, the identification of leaf diseases is essential in this field of agriculture. Diseases brought on by bacteria, viruses, and fungi are a significant factor in reduced crop yields. Numerous machine learning models have been applied in the identification of plant diseases, however, with the recent developments in deep learning, this field of study seems to hold huge potential for improved accuracy. This study presents an effective method that uses image processing and deep… More >

Abstract Tomato leaf diseases significantly impact crop production, necessitating early detection for sustainable farming. Deep Learning (DL) has recently shown excellent results in identifying and classifying tomato leaf diseases. However, current DL methods often require substantial computational resources, hindering their application on resource-constrained devices. We propose the Deep Tomato Detection Network (DTomatoDNet), a lightweight DL-based framework comprising 19 learnable layers for efficient tomato leaf disease classification to overcome this. The Convn kernels used in the proposed (DTomatoDNet) framework is 1 × 1, which reduces the number of parameters and helps in more detailed and descriptive feature extraction for… More >

Abstract Farming has been the most prominent and fundamental activity for generations. As the population has been multiplying exponentially, the demand for agricultural yield is growing relentlessly. Such high demand in production through traditional farming methodologies often falls short in terms of efficiency due to the limitations of manual labour. In the era of digitization, smart agricultural solutions have been emerging through the windows of Internet of Things and Artificial Intelligence to improve resource management, optimize the process of farming and enhance the yield of crops, hence, ensuring sustainable growth of the increasing production. By implementing… More >

Abstract Smart Agriculture, also known as Agricultural 5.0, is expected to be an integral part of our human lives to reduce the cost of agricultural inputs, increasing productivity and improving the quality of the final product. Indeed, the safety and ongoing maintenance of Smart Agriculture from cyber-attacks are vitally important. To provide more comprehensive protection against potential cyber-attacks, this paper proposes a new deep learning-based intrusion detection system for securing Smart Agriculture. The proposed Intrusion Detection System IDS, namely GMLP-IDS, combines the feedforward neural network Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) and the Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) that can… More >

Abstract Soil is the major source of infinite lives on Earth and the quality of soil plays significant role on Agriculture practices all around. Hence, the evaluation of soil quality is very important for determining the amount of nutrients that the soil require for proper yield. In present decade, the application of deep learning models in many fields of research has created greater impact. The increasing soil data availability of soil data there is a greater demand for the remotely avail open source model, leads to the incorporation of deep learning method to predict the soil… More >
