摘要

Potato stands as a vital staple food worldwide, with its consumption steadily rising and becoming the fourth most consumed staple food globally. However, the prevalence of potato diseases has posed a significant challenge, impairing both the quality and quantity of harvests. Timely and accurate disease classification is imperative for effective disease management and crop protection. Leveraging recent advancements in deep learning and computer vision, this study provides a thorough analysis and evaluation of the differences between of prominent convolutional neural network architectures, namely VGG16, VGG19, ResNet50, ResNet152, and InceptionV3, for classifying three distinct disease classes in potato plants: early blight, late blight, and healthy. In the investigation of a dataset comprising 2152 images, this study scrutinizes the performance metrics of diverse models. The results underscore the remarkable efficiency of InceptionV3, demonstrating an impressive 91.84% accuracy in classifying potato diseases. Significantly, the incorporation of deep learning approaches presents a potential solution for tackling the complex challenges linked to identifying and categorizing potato diseases. Additionally, the paper underscores the vital significance of automated disease detection in preserving worldwide potato production, ensuring food security, and promoting sustainable agricultural practices.
