摘要
A country’s economy heavily depends on agricultural development.However,due to several plant diseases,crop growth rate and quality are highly suffered.Accurate identification of these diseases via a manual procedure is very challenging and time-consuming because of the deficiency of domain experts and low-contrast information.Therefore,the agricultural management system is searching for an automatic early disease detection technique.To this end,an efficient and lightweight Deep Learning(DL)-based framework(E-GreenNet)is proposed to overcome these problems and precisely classify the various diseases.In the end-to-end architecture,a MobileNetV3Smallmodel is utilized as a backbone that generates refined,discriminative,and prominent features.Moreover,the proposed model is trained over the PlantVillage(PV),Data Repository of Leaf Images(DRLI),and a new Plant Composite(PC)dataset individually,and later on test samples,its actual performance is evaluated.After extensive experimental analysis,the proposed model obtained 1.00%,0.96%and 0.99%accuracies on all three included datasets.Moreover,the proposed method achieves better inference speed when compared with other State-Of-The-Art(SOTA)approaches.In addition,a comparative analysis is conducted where the proposed strategy shows tremendous discriminative scores as compared to the various pretrained models and other Machine Learning(ML)and DL methods.
