This study was motivated by the need for an accurate and efficient system for detecting tea leaf diseases, given that the current method Manual identification has limitations in terms of consistency, speed, and It also depends on expert labor. To address these challenges, the study It developed a classification model for detecting diseases in tea leaves using a combination of features Local Binary Patterns (LBP) and Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) integrated with the MobileNetV2 architecture. The research method includes the following stages: importing the dataset, data partitioning, exploratory data analysis (EDA), preprocessing, features, and training four model scenarios: baseline MobileNetV2, LBP-based model, HOG-based model, and hybrid LBP–HOG model. Evaluation is done with the metrics of accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. The results show that the baseline model achieved 91.67% accuracy, the LBP model achieved 60.67%, the HOG model achieved 68.67% accuracy, and the hybrid model achieved 66.67% accuracy. These findings indicate that MobileNetV2 is still the most optimal model, but the integration of texture features and gradients provides a deeper understanding of the characteristics of disease patterns. This study emphasizes the importance of exploring classic features to enriching visual representation in lightweight CNN models, as well as providing a contribution to the development of plant disease diagnosis systems that are efficient.
