A robust and light-weight transfer learning-based architecture for accurate detection of leaf diseases across multiple plants using less amount of images.

ABSTRACT: Leaf diseases are a global threat to crop production and food preservation. Detecting these diseases is crucial for effective management. We introduce LeafDoc-Net, a robust, lightweight transfer-learning architecture for accurately detecting leaf diseases across multiple plant species, even with limited image data. Our approach concatenates two pre-trained image classification deep learning-based models, DenseNet121 and MobileNetV2. We enhance DenseNet121 with an attention-based transition mechanism and global average pooling layers, while MobileNetV2 benefits from adding an attention module and global average pooling layers. We deepen the architecture with extra-dense layers featuring swish activation and batch normalization layers, resulting in a more robust and accurate model for diagnosing leaf-related plant diseases. LeafDoc-Net is evaluated on two distinct datasets, focused on cassava and wheat leaf diseases, demonstrating superior performance compared to existing models in accuracy, precision, recall, and AUC metrics. To gain deeper insights into the model's performance, we utilize Grad-CAM++.

Project description:Transcranial brain stimulation (TBS) has been established as a method for modulating and mapping the function of the human brain, and as a potential treatment tool in several brain disorders. Typically, the stimulation is applied using a one-size-fits-all approach with predetermined locations for the electrodes, in electric stimulation (TES), or the coil, in magnetic stimulation (TMS), which disregards anatomical variability between individuals. However, the induced electric field distribution in the head largely depends on anatomical features implying the need for individually tailored stimulation protocols for focal dosing. This requires detailed models of the individual head anatomy, combined with electric field simulations, to find an optimal stimulation protocol for a given cortical target. Considering the anatomical and functional complexity of different brain disorders and pathologies, it is crucial to account for the anatomical variability in order to translate TBS from a research tool into a viable option for treatment. In this article we present a new method, called CHARM, for automated segmentation of fifteen different head tissues from magnetic resonance (MR) scans. The new method compares favorably to two freely available software tools on a five-tissue segmentation task, while obtaining reasonable segmentation accuracy over all fifteen tissues. The method automatically adapts to variability in the input scans and can thus be directly applied to clinical or research scans acquired with different scanners, sequences or settings. We show that an increase in automated segmentation accuracy results in a lower relative error in electric field simulations when compared to anatomical head models constructed from reference segmentations. However, also the improved segmentations and, by implication, the electric field simulations are affected by systematic artifacts in the input MR scans. As long as the artifacts are unaccounted for, this can lead to local simulation differences up to 30% of the peak field strength on reference simulations. Finally, we exemplarily demonstrate the effect of including all fifteen tissue classes in the field simulations against the standard approach of using only five tissue classes and show that for specific stimulation configurations the local differences can reach 10% of the peak field strength.
