Abstract

Tomato is a common vegetable crop extensively cultivated in the farming lands in India. The hot climate of India is perfect for its development, but particular weather conditions along with many other aspects affect the growing of tomato plants. Apart from these natural disasters and weather conditions, plant diseases consist a major issue in crop production. Precisely classifying leaf and fruit diseases in tomato plants is a vital step toward computerizing processes. Traditional disease detection models for tomato crops often fall short in predictability. To address this, Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) models have been developed, presenting advanced classification capabilities and the ability to manage the vast variability in agricultural data that conventional computer vision models struggle with. This work presents an Integration of DL with Fox Optimization Algorithm (FOA) for the Recognition and Classification of Tomato Leaf and Fruit Diseases (IDLFOA-DCTLFD). The major objective of the proposed IDLFOA-DCTLFD model is to enhance the detection and classification outcomes of tomato leaf and fruit diseases. At the initial stage, the Median Filter (MF) model is used for pre-processing and the Efficient Channel Attention-SqueezeNet (ECA-SqueezeNet) model is employed for feature extraction. For the hyperparameter tuning process, the proposed IDLFOA-DCTLFD technique implements the FOA. Finally, a Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Network (WGAN) is utilized for the detection of tomato leaf and fruit diseases. The IDLFOA-DCTLFD method is experimentally examined in a tomato leaf and fruit dataset. The experimental validation of the IDLFOA-DCTLFD methodology portrayed a superior accuracy value of 98.02%, surpassing the existing techniques.
