Using Multilayer Perceptron Networks in Early Detection of Late Blight Disease in Tomato Leaves
نویسنده
چکیده
In this work we applied simple computer graphics techniques and artificial neural networks technology to identify the tomatoes that had foliage diseases. We propose the use of low cost computational apparatus to support early detection of diseases and pests in Brazilian tomato crops. A description of methods and results are presented in this work. Our proposal consorts field experiments with inexpensive computer-aided experiments based on pattern recognition. The recognition was aimed to identify diseases, more specifically, the late blight, which is characterized by the occurrence of brown spots in tomato leaves.

متن کاملAnalysis of Late Blight Disease in Tomato Leaf Using Image Processing Techniques
Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) is one of the most widely grown crops in the world. This crop is easily prone to various diseases. One such disease is late blight, caused by the fungus Phytophthora infestans. The first symptoms of late blight on tomato leaves are irregularly shaped, water soaked lesions, which are typically found on the younger leaves of the plant canopy. During humid condi...
