Abstract

Visual inspection of plant health status and disease severity may yield subjective assessments due to the error-prone sphere of colors and textures as affected by angular photosynthetic light source and the complexity of chlorosis. Quantification of damages on leaves due to destructive diseases is paramount for plant and pathogen interactions. To address this challenge, the proposed solution is the integration of computer vision and computational intelligence for tomato Septoria leaf spot necrotic and chlorotic region computational assessment. Dataset contains healthy and diseased tomato leaves that were captured individually. Non-vegetation pixels removal was done using CIELab color space. RGB color components and five Haralick texture features were extracted from the segmented leaf. Hybrid neighborhood component analysis and ReliefF algorithm were employed to select the important predictors resulting to RGB-entropy vector. A new tomato leaf disease index (tomLDI) optimized using artificial bee colony (ABC) was developed by normalizing visible red reflectance, and introducing red-green and red-blue reflectance ratios to enhance Septoria leaf spots pixels and reducing sensitivity to healthy green pixels. KNN bested classification tree, linear discriminant analysis and Naïve Bayes in detecting Septoria leaf disease with accuracy of 97.46%. Deep transfer image regression was tested using raw infected leaf images and the tomLDI transformed colored channels through MobileNetV2, ResNet101 and InceptionV3. Using tomLDI channel, MobileNetV2 and ResNet101 bested other networks in estimating leaf diseased region percentage and number of Septoria spots with R2 values of 0.9930 and 0.9484 respectively. tomLDI channel proved to be more accurate than using raw images for regression.
