Plant Disease Detection Using SVM
Abstract: AbstractDiseases in plants are responsible for major production and economic losses and also reduction in yield. Detection of plant disease through some automatic technique is beneficial as it reduces a large work of monitoring in big farms of crops, and at very early stage itself, it detects the symptoms of diseases. Detection on plant is very critical for defensible agriculture. It is very challenging to monitor the plant diseases physically. …
