Abstract:
Agriculture accepts a basic part by virtue of the quick improvement of the general population and extended interest in food in India. Hence, it is required to increase harvest yield. One serious cause of low collect yield is an infection brought about by microorganisms, infection, and organisms. Plant disease investigation is one of the major and essential tasks in the part of cultivating. It tends to be forestalled by utilizing plant disease detection techniques. To monitor, observe or take care of plant diseases manually is a very complex task. It requires gigantic proportions of work, and moreover needs outrageous planning time; consequently, image processing is utilized to distinguish diseases of plants. Plant disease classification can be done by using machine learning algorithms which include steps like dataset creation, load pictures, pre-preparing, segmentation, feature extraction, training classifier, and classification. The main objective of this research is to construct one model, which classifies the healthy and diseased harvest leaves and predicts diseases of plants. In this paper, the researchers have trained a model to recognize some unique harvests and 26 diseases from the public dataset which contains 54,306 images of the diseases and healthy plant leaves that are collected under controlled conditions. This paper worked on the ResNets algorithm. A residual neural network (ResNet) is a subpart of the artificial neural network (ANN). ResNet algorithm contains a residual block that can be used to solve the problem of vanishing/exploding gradient. ResNet algorithm is also used for creating Residual Network. For the image classification, ResNets achieve a much well result. The ResNets techniques applied some of the parameters like scheduling learning rate, gradient clipping, and weight decay. Using the ResNet algorithm, the researchers expect high accuracy results and detecting more diseases from the various harvests.
