In this review paper, previous and current works for plant leaf disease detection have been studied. The traditional manual visual quality inspection cannot be defined systematically as this method is unpredictable and inconsistent. Moreover, it involves a remarkable amount of expertise in the field of plant disease diagnostics (phytopathology) in addition to the disproportionate processing times. Hence, image processing has been applied for the recognition of plant diseases. This paper has been divided into three main parts. In the first part, a comprehensive review based on algorithms is provided were the major algorithms and works conducted using image processing and artificial intelligence algorithms have been compared. The second part discusses the frameworks and compared the previous works. Then, a comprehensive discussion based on the accuracy of the results was provided. Based on the review conducted, a detailed explanation of the illnesses detection and classification performance is provided. Finally, the findings and challenges in plant leaf detection using image processing are summarized and discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
