The document discusses a method for plant disease detection and identification using deep learning on leaf images. The method involves collecting images of plant leaves, preprocessing the images through steps like segmentation and grayscale conversion, and classifying plant diseases using a convolutional neural network (CNN) classifier. The goal is to develop an automated system for early and accurate detection of plant diseases to improve crop productivity and help farmers. The system could help reduce costs and time compared to traditional expert-based identification methods. Experimental results found the CNN achieved over 99% accuracy in identifying three common pomegranate diseases from leaf images.
