Summary: | Chilli is extensively grown all over the globe and is particularly important as a food. One of the most difficult issues confronting chilli cultivation is the requirement for
accurate identification of leaf diseases. Leaf diseases have a negative impact on chilli production quality, resulting in significant losses for farmers. Numerous Machine
Learning (ML) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models have been developed for classifying chilli leaf diseases under uniform background and uncomplicated leaf conditions, with an average classification accuracy achieved.
However, a diseased leaf usually grows alongside a cluster of other leaves, making it difficult to classify the disease. It will be easier for farmers if there is a reliable model that can classify a chilli leaf disease in a cluster of leaves. The aim of this study was to propose a model for classifying chilli leaf disease from both a uniform background and a complex cluster of leaves. Images of diseased chilli leaves are acquired using a low-cost Kinect camera, which include discoloration, grey spots,
and leaf curling. The different types of chilli leaf disease are then classified using an improved ShuffleNet CNN model. With a classification accuracy of 99.82%, the
proposed model outperformed the other existing models |
