scholarly journals Plant Disease Diagnosis and Classification by Computer Vision using Statistical Texture Feature Extraction Technique and K Nearest Neighbor Classification

Pest attack and infectious diseases has become more common in the field of agriculture in the recent times. It has become a challenging task to identify the infection or the insect that destructs the plant growth and production. Diagnosing the disease or the insect attack on the plants in the early stage will safe guard the plant growth and the production rate. Timely intervention of technology that deals with disease detection and control method can protect the plants from usage of harmful pesticides. The higher dosage of pesticides impacts the health of human as well as other creatures like birds and animals which directly or indirectly consumes the plant or get in touch with the plants in different circumstances. A Computer vision technique which combines the Digital Image processing and Machine Learning methodology has been proposed to provide pest management solution. The disease detection is based on the statistical texture feature analysis and it is classified using K nearest neighbor classifier. Statistical PCA is combined with SIFT method to extract the key points, which eliminates the non-operational key points and SFTA is used to extract the texture. The system has achieved better result in identifying and differentiating the infection and insect attack on multiple plant taxonomy. The implementation has been performed using MATLAB.

Copy number variation (CNV) is a well-known type of genomic mutation that is associated with the development of human cancer diseases. Detection of CNVs from the human genome is a crucial step for the pipeline of starting from mutation analysis to cancer disease diagnosis and treatment. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) data provides an unprecedented opportunity for CNVs detection at the base-level resolution, and currently, many methods have been developed for CNVs detection using NGS data. However, due to the intrinsic complexity of CNVs structures and NGS data itself, accurate detection of CNVs still faces many challenges. In this paper, we present an alternative method, called KNNCNV (K-Nearest Neighbor based CNV detection), for the detection of CNVs using NGS data. Compared to current methods, KNNCNV has several distinctive features: 1) it assigns an outlier score to each genome segment based solely on its first k nearest-neighbor distances, which is not only easy to extend to other data types but also improves the power of discovering CNVs, especially the local CNVs that are likely to be masked by their surrounding regions; 2) it employs the variational Bayesian Gaussian mixture model (VBGMM) to transform these scores into a series of binary labels without a user-defined threshold. To evaluate the performance of KNNCNV, we conduct both simulation and real sequencing data experiments and make comparisons with peer methods. The experimental results show that KNNCNV could derive better performance than others in terms of F1-score.

Texture feature is a decisive factor in pattern classification problems because texture features are not deduced from the intensity of current pixel but from the grey level intensity variations of current pixel with its neighbors. In this chapter, a new texture model called multivariate binary threshold pattern (MBTP) has been proposed with five discrete levels such as -9, -1, 0, 1, and 9 characterizing the grey level intensity variations of the center pixel with its neighbors in the local neighborhood of each band in a multispectral image. Texture-based classification has been performed with the proposed model using fuzzy k-nearest neighbor (fuzzy k-NN) algorithm on IRS-P6, LISS-IV data, and the results have been evaluated based on confusion matrix, classification accuracy, and Kappa statistics. From the experiments, it is found that the proposed model outperforms other chosen existing texture models.

Abstract Background: Heart disease is the primary cause of morbidity and mortality in the world. It includes numerous problems and symptoms. The diagnosis of heart disease is difficult because there are too many factors to analyze. What's more, the misclassification cost could be very high. Methods: A cost-sensitive ensemble method was proposed to improve the efficiency of diagnosis and reduce the misclassification cost. The proposed method contains five heterogeneous classifiers: random forest, logistic regression, support vector machine, extreme learning machine and k-nearest neighbor. T-test was used to investigate if the performance of the ensemble was better than individual classifiers and the contribution of Relief algorithm. Results: The best performance was achieved by the proposed method according to ten-fold cross validation. The statistical tests demonstrated that the performance of the proposed ensemble was significantly superior to individual classifiers, and the efficiency of classification was distinctively improved by Relief algorithm. Conclusions: The proposed ensemble gained significantly better results compared with individual classifiers and previous studies, which implies that it can be used as a promising alternative tool in medical decision making for heart disease diagnosis.

The selection of services is a key part of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). Services are primarily selected based on function, but Quality of Service (QoS) is an important factor when choosing among several services with the same function. But current service selection approaches often takes time to unnecessarily recompute requests. Furthermore, if the same service is chosen as having the "best" QoS for multiple selections, this may result in that service having too much load. We thus propose the FASICA (FAst service selection for SImilar constraints with CAche) Framework which chooses a service with satisfactory QoS as quickly as possible. The key points are (1) to use a cache which stores previous search results, (2) to use K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN) algorithm with K-d tree when a satisfactory service does not exist in the cache, and (3) to distribute the service request according to a distribution policy. Results of simulations show that our framework can rapidly select a service compared to a conventional approach.

In this chapter, an intelligent Computer Vision (CV) system, for the automatic defect detection and classification of the terminals in a Bussed Electrical Center (BEC) is presented. The system is able to detect and classify three types of defects in a set of the seven lower pairs of terminals of a BEC namely: a) twisted; b) damaged and c) missed. First, an environment to acquire a total of 56 training and test images was created. After that, the image preprocessing is performed by defining a Region Of Interest (ROI) followed by a binarization and a morphological operation to remove small objects. Then, the segmentation stage is computed resulting in a set of 12-14 labeled zones. A vector of 56 features is extracted for each image containing information of area, centroid and diameter of all terminals segmented. Finally, the classification is performed using a K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) algorithm. Experimental results on 28 BEC images have shown an accuracy of 92.8% of the proposed system, allowing changes in brightness, contrast and salt and pepper noise.

<p>Kualitas produk merupakan faktor utama untuk menjamin keberlangsungan satu usaha peternakan. Perusahaan telur puyuh yang memiliki ribuan burung Puyuh seperti CV. NS Quail Farm mampu memproduksi ribuan telur dalam sehari karena seekor burung Puyuh mampu menghasilkan 250-300 butir telur per tahun. Penyeleksian ribuan telur-telur tersebut dilakukan secara tradisional oleh para pekerja peternakan sehingga kualitas telur-telur hasil seleksi bergantung pada perspektif masing-masing pekerja. Guna memperoleh telur hasil seleksi dengan kualitas yang sama, maka dibangun sebuah sistem pencitraan digital untuk pemilihan telur burung Puyuh berdasarkan fitur warna dan tekstur kulit telur menggunakan metode klasifikasi K-<em>Nearest Neighbor</em> (KNN) yang dikombinasikan dengan fusi informasi. 300 data citra telur burung Puyuh diolah menggunakan normalisasi <em>Red, Green, Blue</em> (RGB) dan <em>Otsu thresholding</em> guna memperoleh fitur warna dan fitur tekstur yang kemudian difusikan menjadi fitur terfusi tunggal sebagai masukan pengklasifikasi KNN. Dari hasil-hasil penelitian, disimpulkan bahwa sistem berhasil mengklasifikasikan mutu telur Baik, Sedang, dan Buruk dengan akurasi rata-rata sebesar 77,78%. Disamping itu, klasifikasi dengan fusi informasi mampu mengungguli klasifikasi tanpa fusi informasi sebesar 11,11% pada nilai  yang sama yakni 7 dan fusi informasi juga mampu mempercepat proses klasifikasi sebesar 0,22 detik dibandingkan terhadap klasifikasi tanpa fusi informasi.</p><p><strong><em>Abstract</em></strong></p><p><em>The quality of product us a primary factor to ensure the sustainability of a farm business. A company which has thousands of quail such as CV. NS Quail is capable of producing thousand quail eggs in a day because a quail is able to produce 250-300 eggs per year. The selection of the eggs is carried out traditionally by the farm workers so that the quality of the selected eggs are depended on the perspective of each worker. In order to obtain the same quality of the selected eggs, a digital imaging system for quail egg selection based on color feature and texture feature using K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) combined with information fusion is developed. 300 image data of quail egg was processed using Red, Green, Blue (RGB) and Otsu thresholding to obtain color feature and texture feature which then were fused to become single fused feature as the input to KNN classifier.
