An Effective Approach for Recognition of Crop Diseases Using Advanced Image Processing and YOLOv8
The performance of processed images is evaluated using mean‐squared‐error and peak‐signal‐to‐noise ratio. After the processing phase, an advanced deep learning model, YOLOv8, was used for the segmentation and classification of crop diseases. Using a large dataset comprising 32 diseases to train our model, we implemented Transfer Learning using YOLOv8 ...
