Abstract

Plants are one of the most widely used resources for humans in different fields. Therefore, the distinction between the plant species is important and it is referred to as the plant detection system. Until now, this task has been done by the expert botanists which is an overwhelming and time consuming task. Moreover, there is a lack of the memory and the human fault, so the researchers endeavored to solve these disadvantages using the AI algorithms. For this goal, in this paper, a system is proposed that includes four phases: pre-processing, feature extraction, training, and test. In this method, we use the combination of the useful features of the leave shape, the leave texture, the leave color, and we provide a method for the classification of a number of the plant species. Finally, the feature vectors will be created and then, the classification is performed by using feed-forward back-propagation multi-layer perceptron artificial neural network algorithm. Then, the results of this method compare with other methods. The obtained results show the high accuracy of this method for a large number of the species in different conditions (such as pests, season changes and lighting).
