Preliminary research on the identification system for anthracnose and powdery mildew of sandalwood leaf based on image processing.
This paper presents a survey on a system that uses digital image processing techniques to identify anthracnose and powdery mildew diseases of sandalwood from digital images. Our main objective is researching the most suitable identification technology for the anthracnose and powdery mildew diseases...
