Black spot is one of the seriously damaging plant diseases in China, especially in rose production. Hyperspectral technology reflects both external features and internal structure information of measured samples, which can be used to identify the disease. In this research, both the spectral and image features of two infected roses with black spot were used to train a convolutional neural network (CNN) model. Multiple scattering correction (MSC) and standard normal variable (SNV) methods were applied to preprocess the spectral data. Cropping, median filtering and binarization were pretreatments used on the hyperspectral images. Three CNN models based on Alexnet, VGG16 and neural discriminative dimensionality reduction (NDDR) were evaluated by analyzing the classification accuracy and loss function. The results show that the CNN model based on the fusion of features has higher accuracy. The highest accuracies of detection of blackspot in different roses are 12–26 (100%) and 13–54 (99.95%), applying the NDDR-CNN model. Therefore, this research indicates that the spectral analysis based on CNN can detect black spot of roses, which provides a reference for the detection of other plant diseases, and has favorable research significance as well as prospect for development.

Owing to the increased use of urban rail transit, the flow of passengers on metro platforms tends to increase sharply during peak periods. Monitoring passenger flow in such areas is important for security-related reasons. In this paper, in order to solve the problem of metro platform passenger flow detection, we propose a CNN (convolutional neural network)-based network called the MP (metro platform)-CNN to accurately count people on metro platforms. The proposed method is composed of three major components: a group of convolutional neural networks is used on the front end to extract image features, a multiscale feature extraction module is used to enhance multiscale features, and transposed convolution is used for upsampling to generate a high-quality density map. Currently, existing crowd-counting datasets do not adequately cover all of the challenging situations considered in this study. Therefore, we collected images from surveillance videos of a metro platform to form a dataset containing 627 images, with 9243 annotated heads. The results of the extensive experiments showed that our method performed well on the self-built dataset and the estimation error was minimum. Moreover, the proposed method could compete with other methods on four standard crowd-counting datasets.

This thesis investigates methods for traffic scene perception with monocular cameras for a basic environment model in the context of automated vehicles. The developed approach is designed with special attention to the computational limitations present in practical systems. For this purpose, three different scene representations are investigated. These consist of the prevalent road topology as the global scene context, the drivable road area and the detection and spatial reconstruction of other road users. An approach is developed that allows for the simultaneous perception of all environment representations based on a multi-task convolutional neural network. The obtained results demonstrate the efficiency of the multi-task approach. In particular, the effects of shareable image features for the perception of the individual scene representations were found to improve the computational performance.

<span lang="EN-US">Plant pathologists desire soft computing technology for accurate and reliable diagnosis of plant diseases. In this study, we propose an efficient soybean disease identification method based on a transfer learning approach by using a pre-trained convolutional neural network (CNN’s) such as AlexNet, GoogleNet, VGG16, ResNet101, and DensNet201. The proposed convolutional neural networks were trained using 1200 plant village image dataset of diseased and healthy soybean leaves, to identify three soybean diseases out of healthy leaves. Pre-trained CNN used to enable a fast and easy system implementation in practice. We used the five-fold cross-validation strategy to analyze the performance of networks. In this study, we used a pre-trained convolutional neural network as feature extractors and classifiers. The experimental results based on the proposed approach using pre-trained AlexNet, GoogleNet, VGG16, ResNet101, and DensNet201 networks achieve an accuracy of 95%, 96.4 %, 96.4 %, 92.1%, 93.6% respectively. The experimental results for the identification of soybean diseases indicated that the proposed networks model achieves the highest accuracy</span>

Classifying remote sensing images is vital for interpreting image content. Presently, remote sensing image scene classification methods using convolutional neural networks have drawbacks, including excessive parameters and heavy calculation costs. More efficient and lightweight CNNs have fewer parameters and calculations, but their classification performance is generally weaker. We propose a more efficient and lightweight convolutional neural network method to improve classification accuracy with a small training dataset. Inspired by fine-grained visual recognition, this study introduces a bilinear convolutional neural network model for scene classification. First, the lightweight convolutional neural network, MobileNetv2, is used to extract deep and abstract image features. Each feature is then transformed into two features with two different convolutional layers. The transformed features are subjected to Hadamard product operation to obtain an enhanced bilinear feature. Finally, the bilinear feature after pooling and normalization is used for classification. Experiments are performed on three widely used datasets: UC Merced, AID, and NWPU-RESISC45. Compared with other state-of-art methods, the proposed method has fewer parameters and calculations, while achieving higher accuracy. By including feature fusion with bilinear pooling, performance and accuracy for remote scene classification can greatly improve. This could be applied to any remote sensing image classification task.

Humans can recognize the plants infected by diseases but separated from our visual perception it is hard to recognize plant diseases. In croplands without taking the right care and prompt action, the entire field may become a region afflicted by diseases. So we identify the plant diseases ahead of time with the assistance of present-day computer technologies. An advanced model was introduced to accurately recognize and classification plant diseases. Here we proposed an approach that can use the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based on BFOA for distinguishing diseases in plants. The input picture for the extraction of features is divided into 3 clusters by the Euclidean distance measurement metric of the k-mean algorithm and from the ROI, parameters of the GLCM matrix are calculated in the same cluster prior to BFOA. Assigning matrix parameters as BFOA input improves the network’s accuracy and efficiency in determining. In classification, we proposed a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) using ResNet50 as a pre-trained network in deep learning toolbox which classifies from a given dataset. The approach is more reliable as the detection and classification of plant diseases are more precise.

Gangrene disease is one of the deadliest diseases on the globe which is caused by lack of blood supply to the body parts or any kind of infection. The gangrene disease often affects the human body parts such as fingers, limbs, toes but there are many cases of on muscles and organs. In this paper, the gangrene disease classification is being done from the given images of high resolution. The convolutional neural network (CNN) is used for feature extraction on disease images. The first layer of the convolutional neural network was used to capture the elementary image features such as dots, edges and blobs. The intermediate layers or the hidden layers of the convolutional neural network extracts detailed image features such as shapes, brightness, and contrast as well as color. Finally, the CNN extracted features are given to the Support Vector Machine to classify the gangrene disease. The experiment results show the approach adopted in this study performs better and acceptable.

Plants have a great role to play in biodiversity sustenance. These natural products not only push their demand for agricultural productivity, but also for the manufacturing of medical products, cosmetics and many more. Apple is one of the fruits that is known for its excellent nutritional properties and is therefore recommended for daily intake. However, due to various diseases in apple plants, farmers have to suffer from a huge loss. This not only causes severe effects on fruit’s health, but also decreases its overall productivity, quantity, and quality. A novel convolutional neural network (CNN) based model for recognition and classification of apple leaf diseases is proposed in this paper. The proposed model applies contrast stretching based pre-processing technique and fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithm for the identification of plant diseases. These techniques help to improve the accuracy of CNN model even with lesser size of dataset. 400 image samples (200 healthy, 200 diseased) of apple leaves have been used to train and validate the performance of the proposed model. The proposed model achieved an accuracy of 98%. To achieve this accuracy, it uses lesser data-set size as compared to other existing models, without compromising with the performance, which become possible due to use of contrast stretching pre-processing combined with FCM clustering algorithm.
