Abstract
Farmers are concerned about the automatic detection of lesions and pests that threaten tomato plants. Traditional computer vision and pattern recognition technologies have limits when it comes to tackling such difficult problems. However, deep learning had gained popularity in recent years, particularly for the detection and recognition of biotic stress in diseased leaf photos of plants with varying lighting conditions, complicated backdrops, and background noise. In this paper, a system was provided that uses several “Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN)” for the automatic recognition and identification of multi-biotic tomato leaf lesions collected from PlantVillage. For instance segmentation, a “Mask R-CNN” network is used in the first phase; for semantic segmentation a Hybrid Deep Segmentation Convolutional Neural Network Model (Hybrid-DSCNN) model is compared with U-Net and Seg-Net in the second phase, and a CNN model is used for classification in the third stage. The two backbone feature extractors were employed in the Mask R-CNN network, and the ResNet50 displays average precision of 73.00% in the instance segmentation test, which is superior to other models. For the segmentation and classification tasks, the Hybrid-DSCNN 2Layer-Convo-USN has achieved an accuracy of 98.25% which is better than the pre-trained models. The precision of the proposed Hybrid-DSCNN 2Layer-Convo-USN is 95.7% and of U-Net is 94.9%. The results are positive, indicating that the entire system may be implemented in any platform that can be used in the real world.
