Paddy Disease Detection Using Machine Learning

Authors(2) :-S. Girinath, Hemanth Chalamkota

Rice is a staple food in our daily diet, and holds immense agricultural significance in India. Traditionally, farmers rely on visual examination or group discussions to identify leaf diseases, later resorting to time-consuming laboratory tests for confirmation. To address this, a model has been developed – A Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) combined with an Ensemble Model utilising AdaBoost and Bagging Classifier. This model proficiently classifies five paddy leaf diseases: Bacterial Leaf Blight (BLB), Hispa , Brown Spot (BS), and Leaf Blast (LS).Notably, it outperforms traditional models such as Combined Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE), Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) with Convolutional Neural Network (CNN).This innovation has the potential for extension into a practical rice plant disease identification system for real-world agriculture applications.
