Abstract

Bacterial scab and viral diseases of plants caused by the whitefly represent a prolem that attracts the attention of biologists. Among the many species of whiteflies, the B.tabaci, is an insect able to attack multiple crops, weeds, and ornamental hosts. Their small size belies, their ability to reproduce quickly and their skills for moving over relatively short distances contribute to put several potential hosts at the risk of infestation. Plant protection against these insects is critical for increasing crop quantity and quality. At the time and up to now, farmers have used conventional and manual means of protection against this insect. So, an effective protection strategy must start with early detection and identification of this type of insect in order to know if it is a female egg. In recent years, deep learning in general and auto-encoders have given excellent results in many images classification tasks. This gave us the opportunity to improve the accuracy of classification in the field of agriculture and the identification of insect eggs on plants.
