A Critical Study towards the Detection of Parkinsons Disease using ML Technologies

TL;DR

This paper evaluates deep learning models for detecting and segmenting tea leaf diseases, comparing SSD MobileNet V2, Faster R-CNN ResNet50 V1, and Mask R-CNN, with Faster R-CNN showing better performance.

Contribution

The study compares multiple deep learning models for tea leaf disease detection and introduces a custom segmentation method for damaged areas.

Findings

Faster R-CNN ResNet50 V1 outperforms SSD MobileNet V2 in detection accuracy.

The models can identify three types of tea leaf diseases caused by pests and pathogens.

Mask R-CNN effectively segments the damaged regions on leaves.

Abstract

The proposed solution is Deep Learning Technique that will be able classify three types of tea leaves diseases from which two diseases are caused by the pests and one due to pathogens (infectious organisms) and environmental conditions and also show the area damaged by a disease in leaves. Namely Red Rust, Helopeltis and Red spider mite respectively. In this paper we have evaluated two models namely SSD MobileNet V2 and Faster R-CNN ResNet50 V1 for the object detection. The SSD MobileNet V2 gave precision of 0.209 for IOU range of 0.50:0.95 with recall of 0.02 on IOU 0.50:0.95 and final mAP of 20.9%. While Faster R-CNN ResNet50 V1 has precision of 0.252 on IOU range of 0.50:0.95 and recall of 0.044 on IOU of 0.50:0.95 with a mAP of 25%, which is better than SSD. Also used Mask R-CNN for Object Instance Segmentation where we have implemented our custom method to calculate the damaged diseased portion of leaves.
