Deep learning model performance enhanced with data generation for plant disease detection

Researchers have developed a comprehensive data generation strategy to improve the performance of deep learning models in plant disease diagnosis. This strategy involves using techniques like CutMix, MixUp, and Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks (DCGANs) to create synthetic data. The generated data was applied in three scenarios: balancing class distribution, increasing sample size per class, and expanding the dataset while maintaining balance. Experiments using the EfficientNetV2B0 architecture demonstrated significant improvements in classification accuracy, highlighting the importance of data diversity and class balance for effective plant disease detection. AI

IMPACT This research offers a novel approach to improving AI-driven plant disease detection, potentially leading to more accurate and efficient agricultural practices.
