Due to an uneven climatic condition crops are being affected which leads to decrease in agriculture yield. It greatly affects global agricultural economy. However, the condition becomes more worse when diseases are identified in crops. Agriculture plays a vital role in every country’s economy. Thus, there is a need to identify the crop disease before it is visible on a crop so that disease can be avoided by using appropriate measures. The traditional way of identifying a crop disease is through observation by naked eyes. But as it requires large number of experts and continuous monitoring of crop it will be costly for large fields. Hence, an automatic system is required which can not only examine the crops to detect disease but also can classify the type of disease on crops. The proposed system determines disease from an input image. The input image has to go through following stages: Image Acquisition, Image pre-processing, Image segmentation, Feature Extraction, and Classification in order to determine diseased crop and accordingly provides remedy for that disease. Infected crop image is taken as input in Image Acquisition stage. In Image pre-processing stage noise is removed from the input image by applying gaussian blur filter and non-local means denoising algorithm. Also, the background of image is eliminated using Thresholding algorithm. To extract Region of Interest (ROI) i.e. infected region from input image K-means Clustering algorithm is used. Then color, texture and shape features are extracted from ROI and features are further send to the classification stage. Three different classification algorithms namely Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and Random Forest are implemented for classification out of which Support Vector Machine Algorithm is found to be best in terms of accuracy. Hence, classification is carried out by using Multivariate Support Vector Machine algorithm which detect disease present in crop accurately. In this way, the proposed system detects a disease from the given input image.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
