Abstract
Strawberry is highly prone to numerous foliar diseases which can drastically decrease the yield and quality unless well identified. The conventional ways of disease identification are based on manual inspection, which is very tedious and ineffective in large farms. The creation of artificial intelligence (AI) has enabled the application of deep learning (DL) models to identify illnesses in plants through the examination of images automatically. This paper will give a detailed comparison and analysis of various deep learning models used to diagnose and classify strawberry leaf diseases. A collection of images of normal and diseased strawberry leaves is used with a number of more advanced convolutional neural network (CNN) models, such as VGG16, ResNet50, and InceptionV3, and transfer learning is used to use the knowledge gained with pre-trained models and simplify the training process. The simulated results indicate that each of the models is a reasonable classification model, with InceptionV3 being the most accurate and VGG16 being the best tradeoff between accuracy and resource-efficiency, so it is applicable in real-time and resource-constrained conditions.
The state-of-the-art deep learning methods for detection and classification are applied on banana leaf dataset and healthy and two common diseases of banana leaves are classified in this work.

Plant leaf diseases are known to affect agricultural productivity and food security on a global level. "Therefore, the detection and diagnosis of diseases are important aspects of maintaining the health of crops on a sustainable level. Traditionally, the detection of diseases in plants is performed manually by experts. This process is considered to be a tedious and time-consuming task due to the chances of human error during the process. To overcome the challenges of traditional methods of detecting and diagnosing diseases in plants, a deep learning-based system is proposed in this research study to detect and classify diseases in plants. This system uses the object detection model YOLOv8x and YOLOv10x to detect the objects in the images and classify the images accordingly. Deep learning models are used to classify the images of the plants. This study uses various deep learning models like the convolutional neural network model ResNet50 and EfficientNet, and the transformer model Vision Transformer and Swin Transformer. Moreover, a hybrid model is proposed in this study by combining the transformer and convolutional neural network model to improve the efficiency of the system in detecting and classifying the diseases of the plants. This system uses the PlantVillage dataset to classify the images of the plants and detect the diseases accordingly. From the results obtained in this study, it can be observed that the proposed system is highly efficient in detecting and classifying the diseases of the plants with the help of the transformer and hybrid model.
Background: Legumes, such as beans, are important in worldwide agriculture because of their nutritional value and soil-enriching qualities. However, bean crops are susceptible to diseases such as angular leaf spot and rust, which may reduce production and quality. Disease identification that is both effective and timely is essential to crop health and output. Traditional diagnostic approaches are often labor-intensive and susceptible to inaccuracy. Recent advances in deep learning (DL) provide interesting possibilities for automating disease categorization, possibly improving accuracy and efficiency. Methods: This study evaluates and compares the performance of two deep learning architectures, ResNet50 and VGG19, for the classification of bean leaf diseases. The dataset, sourced from Kaggle, comprises 1295 images categorized into three classes: Angular Leaf Spot, Rust and Healthy. Both systems relied on pre-trained ImageNet weights, with adjustments customized to the classification objective. The models were trained for 25 epochs and their performance was assessed based on overall accuracy. Result: The performance of the models is evaluated in terms of the confusion matrix, classification report and ROC(AUC) curves. The ResNet50 model achieved an overall accuracy of 93.75%, while the VGG19 model attained an accuracy of 91.41%. The findings indicate that ResNet50 performs better than VGG19 in terms of classification accuracy. This work demonstrates ResNet50’s performance for bean leaf disease classification tasks, providing important insights for future research and practical applications in agricultural disease control.

Background: Groundnut is a vital crop affected by several foliar diseases, such as leaf spot, alternaria, rust and rosette. These diseases can reduce crop quality and yield. Manual identification is time-consuming and may lack accuracy. Deep learning methods offer a reliable alternative for automated disease detection. Methods: This study proposes a fine-tuned InceptionV3 convolutional neural network to classify five groundnut leaf classes. A dataset (Sourced from the Mendeley database) of 1,720 high-resolution images was used. These were collected under natural conditions from fields in Ramchandrapur village, West Bengal, India. Images were resized, normalized and augmented to improve model generalization. Transfer learning was applied using the InceptionV3 base model. A custom classification head was added with dense layers, batch normalization, dropout and L2 regularization. The model was trained with the RMSprop optimizer and evaluated using performance matrices, area under the curve (AUC) and Cohen’s Kappa. Result: The proposed model achieved a test accuracy of 98.26%. The macro average F1-score was 0.9872 and cohen’s kappa reached 0.9762. AUC values were above 0.998 for all classes. The model showed excellent performance, especially for minority classes like rosette and rust. It correctly classified almost all samples, with very few misclassifications. Compared to earlier studies, the model performed competitively and offered high interpretability and efficiency. These results support its use in real-world disease diagnosis in agriculture.
