Abstract:Life of human being and animals depend on the environment which is surrounded by plants. Like human beings, plants also suffer from lot of diseases. Plant gets affected by completely including leaf, stem, root, fruit and flower; this affects the normal growth of the plant. Manual identification and diagnosis of plant diseases is very difficult. This method is costly as well as time-consuming so it is inefficient to be highly specific. Plant pathology deals with the progress in developing classification of plan… Show more
“…However, some plant features, such as stem diameter, leaf number, and leaf area are not measured easily by such non-contact measurement methods [9]. Therefore, improving the quality of plant features estimation is one of the primary concerns of present-day plant management [10]- [15].…”
Increasingly <span>emerging technologies in agriculture such as computer vision, artificial intelligence technology, not only make it possible to increase production. To minimize the negative impact on climate and the environment but also to conserve resources. A key task of these technologies is to monitor the growth of plants online with a high accuracy rate and in non-destructive manners. It is known that leaf area (LA) is one of the most important growth indexes in plant growth monitoring system. Unfortunately, to estimate the LA in natural outdoor scenes (the presence of occlusion or overlap area) with a high accuracy rate is not easy and it still remains a big challenge in eco-physiological studies. In this paper, two accurate and non-destructive approaches for estimating the LA were proposed with top-view and side-view images, respectively. The proposed approaches successfully extract the skeleton of cucumber plants in red, green, and blue (RGB) images and estimate the LA of cucumber plants with high precision. The results were validated by comparing with manual measurements. The experimental results of our proposed algorithms achieve 97.64% accuracy in leaf segmentation, and the relative error in LA estimation varies from 3.76% to 13.00%, which could meet the requirements of plant growth monitoring </span>systems.

“…Some research observes that the use of MRI considered bettering than CT scans. Similarly, Murugan et al [10], works with six class classification task. But, the accuracy was noted as 90% in plant disease classification.…”
<span>In the field of medical image processing, achieving high performance in the classification of four types of dementia poses a significant challenge. This research presents a novel approach that outperforms existing methodologies, bringing about a transformative impact in this specialized domain. The method integrates the adaptive synthetic–nominal (ADASYN) technique with a DEMNET framework, resulting in a substantial performance improvement of 95.45% compared to current benchmarks. Through meticulous experimentation on a dementia dataset encompassing four distinct types, we consistently demonstrate significant enhancements achieved by the refined strategy. This innovation not only raises the performance standard but also provides a robust and adaptable solution that can be easily integrated into existing systems. The implications of this advancement open up new avenues for both research and practical applications. This work exemplifies the power of innovative approaches to push the limits of performance and establishes a new benchmark for excellence within this specific domain.</span>
