Optimized Wasserstein Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Network fostered Groundnut Leaf Disease Identification System.

Abstract

Groundnut is a noteworthy oilseed crop. Attacks by leaf diseases are one of the most important reasons causing low yield and loss of groundnut plant growth, which will directly diminish the yield and quality. Therefore, an Optimized Wasserstein Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Network fostered Groundnut Leaf Disease Identification System (GLDI-WDCGAN-AOA) is proposed in this paper. The pre-processed output is fed to Hesitant Fuzzy Linguistic Bi-objective Clustering (HFL-BOC) for segmentation. By using Wasserstein Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Network (WDCGAN), the input leaf images are classified into Healthy leaf, early leaf spot, late leaf spot, nutrition deficiency, and rust. Finally, the weight parameters of WDCGAN are optimized by Aquila Optimization Algorithm (AOA) to achieve high accuracy. The proposed GLDI-WDCGAN-AOA approach provides 23.51%, 22.01%, and 18.65% higher accuracy and 24.78%, 23.24%, and 28.98% lower error rate analysed with existing methods, such as Real-time automated identification and categorization of groundnut leaf disease utilizing hybrid machine learning methods (GLDI-DNN), Online identification of peanut leaf diseases utilizing the data balancing method along deep transfer learning (GLDI-LWCNN), and deep learning-driven method depending on progressive scaling method for the precise categorization of groundnut leaf infections (GLDI-CNN), respectively.
