Agricultural plant Leaf Disease Detection Using Image Processing

Abstract

The detection of plant leaf is an very important factor to prevent serious outbreak. Automatic detection of plant disease is essential research topic. Most plant diseases are caused by fungi, bacteria, and viruses. Fungi are identified primarily from their morphology, with emphasis placed on their reproductive structures. Bacteria are considered more primitive than fungi and generally have simpler life cycles. With few exceptions, bacteria exist as single cells and increase in numbersby dividing into two cells during a process called binary fission Viruses are extremely tiny particles consisting of protein and genetic material with no associated protein. The term disease is usually used only for the destruction of live plants. The developed processing scheme consists of four main steps, first a color transformation structure for the input RGB image is created, this RGB is converted to HSI because RGB is for color generation and his for color descriptor. Then green pixels are masked and removed using specific threshold value, then the image is segmented and the useful segments are extracted, finally the texture statistics is computed. from SGDM matrices. Finally the presence of diseases on the plant leaf is evaluated.
