Abstract

In this work, an effort is made to apply the FractalNet model in the field of plant disease classification. The proposed model was trained and tested using a “PlantVillage” plant disease image dataset using a central processing unit (CPU) environment for 300 epochs. It produced an average classification accuracy of 99.9632% on the test dataset. The experimental results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed model and show that the model achieved the highest values compared to other deep learning models in the PlantVillage datasets.
