Abstract

This paper investigates the application of deep convolutional neural network (CNN) for herbal plant recognition through leaf identification. Traditional plant identification is often time-consuming due to varieties as well as similarities possessed within the plant species. This study shows that a deep CNN model can be created and enhanced using multiple parameters to boost recognition accuracy performance. This study also shows the significant effects of the multi-layer model on small sample sizes to achieve reasonable performance. Furthermore, data augmentation provides more significant benefits on the overall performance. Simple augmentations such as resize, flip and rotate will increase accuracy significantly by creating invariance and preventing the model from learning irrelevant features. A new dataset of the leaves of various herbal plants found in Malaysia has been constructed and the experimental results achieved 99% accuracy.

Abstract

There are numerous studies on brain imaging applications.  The statistics in Malaysia showed that glioma is one of the most common type disease in brain tumor.  Glioma brain tumor is an abnormal growth of glial cells inside the brain tissues which known as cerebral tissues.  Radiologist commonly used Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) image sequences to diagnose the brain tumor.  However, manual examination of the brain tumor diagnosis by radiologist is difficult and time-consuming task as tumors are occurred in variability of shape and appearance.  They will also inject a gadolinium contrast agent to enhance the image modality which will give the side effects to the patients.  Therefore, this paper presents an automated segmentation and detection of MRI brain images using Sobel edge detection and mathematical morphology operations.  The total of 30 glioma T1-Weighted MRI brain images are obtained from Brain Tumor Image Segmentation Benchmark (BRATS).  The results of segmentation and detection are quantitatively evaluated by using Area Overlap which produced the accuracy rate of 80.2% and shows that the presented methods are promising.

Abstract

This paper presents a comparative study between Bag of Features (BoF), Conventional Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Alexnet for fruit recognition.  Automatic fruit recognition can minimize human intervention in their fruit harvesting operations, operation time and harvesting cost.  On the other hand, this task is very challenging because of the similarities in shapes, colours and textures among various types of fruits. Thus, a robust technique that can produce good result is necessary. Due to the outstanding performance of deep learning like CNN and its pre-trained models like AlexNet in image recognition, this paper investigates the accuracy of conventional CNN, and Alexnet in recognizing thirty different types of fruits from a publicly available dataset.  Besides that, the recognition performance of BoF is also examined since it is one of the machine learning techniques that achieves good result in object recognition.   The experimental results indicate that all of these three techniques produce excellent recognition accuracy. Furthermore, conventional CNN achieves the fastest recognition result compared to BoF, and Alexnet.

Abstract

This paper investigates the application of eight color models for automatic palm oil Fresh Fruit Bunch (FFB) ripeness classification with multi-class Support Vector Machine (SVM).  Ripeness classification is important during harvesting to ensure that they are harvested during the correct ripe stage for optimum oil production.  Since color is a significant indicator for agriculturists to determine the ripeness of FFB, it is critical to determine the right color model. Eight color models have been investigated namely, HSV, I1I2I3, LAB, XYZ, YCbCr, YIQ, YUV and RGB. Color moments were extracted from each of these color models for the classification of four stages of FFB ripeness that are unripe, under-ripe, ripe and over-ripe.  A database of five hundred images of palm oil FFB has been constructed and experiments showed that YCbCr and YUV outperform the other color models.

Abstract

Fruit recognition is useful for automatic fruit harvesting. Fruit recognition application can reduce or minimize human intervention during fruit harvesting operation. However, in computer vision, fruit recognition is very challenging because of similar shapes, colors and textures among various fruits. Illuminations changes due to weather condition also leads to a challenging task for fruit recognition. Thus, this paper tends to investigate the performance of basic Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Alexnet and Googlenet in recognizing nine different types of fruits from a publicly available dataset.  The experimental results indicate that all these techniques produce excellent recognition accuracy, but basic CNN achieves the fastest recognition result compared with Alexnet and Googlenet.

Abstract

The advantage of deep learning is that the analysis and learning of massive amounts of unsupervised data make it a beneficial tool for Big Data analysis. Convolution Neural Network (CNN) is a deep learning method that can be used to classify image, cluster them by similarity, and perform image recognition in the scene. This paper conducts a comparative study between three deep learning models, which are simple-CNN, AlexNet and GoogLeNet for Roman handwritten character recognition using Chars74K dataset. The produced results indicate that GooleNet achieves the best accuracy but it requires a longer time to achieve such result while AlexNet produces less accurate result but at a faster rate.

Abstract

This paper presents flower and leaf recognition for plant identification using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). In this study, the performance of CNN for plant identification using images of the leaves, flowers and a combination of both are investigated.  Two publicly available datasets, namely Folio leaf dataset and Flower Recognition dataset, have been used for the training and testing purposes.  CNN has been proven to produce excellent results for object recognition but its performance can still be influenced by the type of images and the number of layers of the CNN architecture.   Experimental results indicate that the utilization of leaf images only arrive to the highest accuracy for plant identification compared to the images of flowers only or the combination of both, that are 98%, 85% and 74%, respectively.

Abstract

This research investigates the application of texture features for leaf recognition for herbal plant identification.  Malaysia is rich with herbal plants but not many people can identify them and know about their uses.   Preservation of the knowledge of these herb plants is important since it enables the general public to gain useful knowledge which they can apply whenever necessary.  Leaf image is chosen for plant recognition since it is available and visible all the time.   Unlike flowers that are not always available or roots that are not visible and not easy to obtain, leaf is the most abundant type of data available in botanical reference collections.  A comparative study has been conducted among three popular texture features that are Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG), Local Binary Pattern (LBP) and Speeded-Up Robust Features (SURF) with multiclass Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier.  A new leaf dataset has been constructed from ten different herb plants.  Experimental results using the new constructed dataset and Flavia, an existing dataset, indicate that HOG and LBP produce similar leaf recognition performance and they are better than SURF.

Abstract

This paper investigates bambara groundnut leaf disease recognition using two popular techniques known as Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Bag of Features (BOF) with Speeded-up Robust Feature (SURF) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier.  Leaf disease recognition has attracted many researchers because the outcome is useful for farmers. One of the crops that provide high income for farmers is bambara groundnut but the leaves are easily infected with diseases especially after the rain.  This could affect the crop productivity.  Thus, automatic disease recognition is crucial.  A new dataset that consists of 400 images of the infected and non-infected leaves of bambara groundnut has been constructed. The experimental results indicate that both of these techniques produce excellent leaf disease recognition accuracy.
