Abstract
Plant disease reduces the quantity and quality of the agricultural product, so identification of plant disease in the early stages is very important. Early detection of disease in plants helps to reduce the overuse of pesticides as well as save plants from further damage. In this research work, we designed a plant disease identification system using image processing and machine learning techniques. Segmentation of the leaf image is one of the strategies for extracting the diseased part of a leaf, which will be given to an automated plant disease recognition system. The challenge of the K-means algorithm is the selection of the optimal cluster number and cluster centroid initialization. The image is segmented using a hybrid clustering (Genetic Algorithm+K-means) algorithm. This hybrid algorithm helps to overcome the drawback of the local optimization problem of k-means algorithm and it selects the number of clusters automatically. Disease is classified using the Artificial neural network (ANN). This proposed algorithm experimental results are compared with traditional k-means.
