Automating Mushroom Culture Classification: A Machine Learning Approach

Traditionally, the classification of mushroom cultures has conventionally relied on manual inspection by human experts. However, this methodology is susceptible to human bias and errors, primarily due to its dependency on individual judgments. To overcome these limitations, we introduce an innovativ...
