An Android Application for Plant Leaf Disease Detection using Convolution Neural Network

Abstract

Abstract: Plant leaf diseases and ruinous insects are an important concern in the agricultural sector. The agriculture is dependent on the agricultural productivity by the country, the better is the agricultural productivity, the better is the economy, and hence better is the GDP. The most common and useful way of boosting this economy for any country is the identification of these diseases in the plant and agricultural product that has been obtained. Developments in Deep Learning have facilitated researchers to improve the performance and in exacting systems for object detection and recognition. In this paper, we propose an image processing and Convolutional Neural Network based approach to detect the diseases affecting plants. Our goal is to develop an Android application with a suitable algorithm that will help automate the process of monitoring and detecting plant health. The proposed android application can effectively detect and identify various types of diseases with the ability to handle complex plant-area scenarios.
