scholarly journals Machine Learning and Fuzzy Logic based Detection, Classification and Grading of Leaf Disease in Plants

India is an agricultural country where most of people are depends on the agriculture. When Plants are infected by the virus, fungus and bacteria, they are mostly seen on leaves and stems of the plants. Because of that, plants production is decreased also economy of the country is decreased. The farmer has to identify the disease and decide which pesticide will be used to control the disease in plants. To finding out which disease affect the plants, the farmer contacts the expert for the solution. The expert gives the advice based on its knowledge and information but sometimes seeking the expert advice is time consuming, expensive and may be not accurate. So, to solve this problem, the image processing techniques and Machine Learning algorithm like Neural Network, Fuzzy Logic and Support Vector Machine gives the better, accurate and affordable solution to control the plants disease than manual method.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been and remains one of the major challenges humanity has faced thus far. Over the past few months, large amounts of information have been collected that are only now beginning to be assimilated. In the present work, the existence of residual information in the massive numbers of rRT-PCRs that tested positive out of the almost half a million tests that were performed during the pandemic is investigated. This residual information is believed to be highly related to a pattern in the number of cycles that are necessary to detect positive samples as such. Thus, a database of more than 20,000 positive samples was collected, and two supervised classification algorithms (a support vector machine and a neural network) were trained to temporally locate each sample based solely and exclusively on the number of cycles determined in the rRT-PCR of each individual. Finally, the results obtained from the classification show how the appearance of each wave is coincident with the surge of each of the variants present in the region of Galicia (Spain) during the development of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and clearly identified with the classification algorithm.

Abstract Background: Accurate prediction of the number of patients with conjunctivitis plays an important role in providing adequate treatment at the hospital, but such accurate predictive model currently does not exist. The current study sought to use machine learning (ML) prediction based on past patient for conjunctivitis and several air pollutants. The optimal machine learning prediction model was selected to predict conjunctivitis-related number patients.Methods: The average daily air pollutants concentrations (CO, O3, NO2, SO2, PM10, PM2.5) and weather data (highest and lowest temperature) were collected. Data were randomly divided into training dataset and test dataset, and normalized mean square error (NMSE) was calculated by 10 fold cross validation, comparing between the ability of seven ML methods to predict the number of patient due to conjunctivitis (Lasso penalized liner model, Decision tree, Boosting regression, Bagging regression, Random forest, Support vector, and Neural network). According to the accuracy of impact prediction, the important air and weather factors that affect conjunctivitis were identified.Results: A total of 84977 cases to treat conjunctivitis were obtained from the ophthalmology center of the Affiliated Hospital of Hangzhou Normal University. For all patients together, the NMSE of the different methods were as follows: Lasso penalized liner regression: 0.755, Decision tree: 0.710, Boosting regression: 0.616, Bagging regression: 0.615, Random forest: 0.392, Support vectors: 0.688, and Neural network: 0.476. Further analyses, stratified by gender and age at diagnosis, supported Random forest as being superior to others ML methods. The main factors affecting conjunctivitis were: O3, NO2, SO2 and air temperature.Conclusion: Machine learning algorithm can predict number of patients due to conjunctivitis, among which, the Random forest algorithm had the highest accuracy. Machine learning algorithm could provide accurate information for hospitals dealing with conjunctivitis caused by air factors.

Object Detection is a popular technology that detects instances within an image. In order to eliminate the barriers in Computer Vision technology due to the dissolution of the BGR(Blue-Green-Red) constituents with the increase in depth, it has been a necessity that the accuracy and efficiency of detecting any object underwater is optimum. In this article, we conduct Underwater Object Detection using Machine Learning through Tensorflow and Image Processing along with Faster R-CNN (Regions with Convolution Neural Network) as an algorithm for implementation. A suitable environment will be created so that Machine Learning algorithm will be used to train different images of the object. Open source Computer Vision has various functions which can be used for the image processing needs when an image is captured.

Diabetes-Retinopathy (DR) condition detection based on machine learning and image processing techniques makes use of the diabetic portion from the set of input images. Textural feature analysis is adopted for feature extraction. CNN is used to classify the extracted features. The execution of the proposed technique is carried out in MATLAB, and the analysis is based on the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity. In the light of analytic outcomes, it can be said that the introduced method performs better than the existing technique in terms of all the mentioned parameters.

The use of image processing tools, machine learning, and deep learning approaches has become very useful and robust in recent years. This paper introduces the detection of the Nosema disease, which is considered to be one of the most economically significant diseases today. This work shows a solution for recognizing and identifying Nosema cells between the other existing objects in the microscopic image. Two main strategies are examined. The first strategy uses image processing tools to extract the most valuable information and features from the dataset of microscopic images. Then, machine learning methods are applied, such as a neural network (ANN) and support vector machine (SVM) for detecting and classifying the Nosema disease cells. The second strategy explores deep learning and transfers learning. Several approaches were examined, including a convolutional neural network (CNN) classifier and several methods of transfer learning (AlexNet, VGG-16 and VGG-19), which were fine-tuned and applied to the object sub-images in order to identify the Nosema images from the other object images. The best accuracy was reached by the VGG-16 pre-trained neural network with 96.25%.
