However, with the help of early detection, this issue can be solved and treated appropriately. A timely and accurate diagnosis is critical in maintaining the quality of crops. Recent innovations in the field of deep learning (DL), especially in convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved great breakthroughs across different applications such as the classification of plant diseases. This study aims to evaluate scratch and pre-trained CNNs in the classification of tomato plant diseases by comparing some of the state-of-the-art architectures including densely connected convolutional network (Densenet) 120, residual network (ResNet) 101, ResNet 50, ReseNet 30, ResNet 18, squeezenet and Vgg.net. The comparison was then evaluated using a multiclass statistical analysis based on the F-Score, specificity, sensitivity, precision, and accuracy. The dataset used for the experiments was drawn from 9 classes of tomato diseases and a healthy class from PlantVillage. The findings show that the pretrained Densenet-120 performed excellently with 99.68% precision, 99.84% F-1 score, and 99.81% accuracy, which is higher compared to its non-trained based model showing the effectiveness of using a combination of a CNN model with fine-tuning adjustment in classifying crop diseases.</span></span>

This article aims to bring an alternative to carrying out manual tests of devices mounted on a production line. One of the tests done by the operator is to find out if the LEDs are present on the device being turned on and working correctly. Image processing techniques were applied in the elaboration of the dataset and the use of Convolutional Neural Networks for the classification of the colors presented by the LEDs and the recognition of their operation. An accuracy of 99.25% was obtained with a low percentage of false positives and true negatives. There were no difficulties in porting the model built to a small computer.

Classification of degraded images is very important in practice because images are usually degraded by compression, noise, blurring, etc. Nevertheless, most of the research in image classification only focuses on clean images without any degradation. Some papers have already proposed deep convolutional neural networks composed of an image restoration network and a classification network to classify degraded images. This paper proposes an alternative approach in which we use a degraded image and an additional degradation parameter for classification. The proposed classification network has two inputs which are the degraded image and the degradation parameter. The estimation network of degradation parameters is also incorporated if degradation parameters of degraded images are unknown. The experimental results showed that the proposed method outperforms a straightforward approach where the classification network is trained with degraded images only.
