A Deep Learning Enabled Multi-Class Plant Disease Detection Model Based on Computer Vision

In this paper, a deep learning enabled object detection model for multi-class plant disease has been proposed based on a state-of-the-art computer vision algorithm. While most existing models are limited to disease detection on a large scale, the current model addresses the accurate detection of fin...
