To reduce the workload of healthcare professionals, we propose a modified Swin-UNet network model. Firstly, the Swin Transformer Blocks are improved using a residual post-normalization and scaling cosine attention mechanism, which makes the training process of the model more stable and improves the accuracy. Secondly, we use the log-space continuous position biasing method instead of the bicubic interpolation position biasing method. This method solves the problem of performance loss caused by the large difference between the resolution of the pretraining image and the resolution of the spine image. Finally, we introduce a segmentation smooth module (SSM) at the decoder stage. The SSM effectively reduces redundancy, and enhances the segmentation edge processing to improve the model's segmentation accuracy. To validate the proposed method, we conducted experiments on a real dataset provided by hospitals. The average segmentation accuracy is no less than 95%.

An inaccurate segmentation may degrade the accuracy of disease classification due to some different and complex leaf diseases. Also, the disease's adhesion and dimension can overlap, causing partial under-segmentation. Therefore, a novel robust Deep Encoder-Decoder Cascaded Network (DEDCNet) model is proposed in this manuscript for leaf image segmentation that precisely segments the diseased leaf spots and differentiates similar diseases. This model is comprised of an Infected Spot Recognition Network and an Infected Spot Segmentation Network. Initially, ISRN is designed by integrating cascaded CNN with a Feature Pyramid Pooling layer to identify the infected leaf spot and avoid an impact of background details. After that, the ISSN developed using an encoder-decoder network, which uses a multi-scale dilated convolution kernel to precisely segment the infected leaf spot. Moreover, the resultant leaf segments are provided to the pre-learned CNN models to learn texture features followed by the SVM algorithm to categorize leaf disease classes. The ODEDCNet delivers exceptional performance on both the Betel Leaf Image and PlantVillage datasets. On the Betel Leaf Image dataset, it achieves an accuracy of 94.89%, with high precision (94.35%), recall (94.77%), and F-score (94.56%), while maintaining low under-segmentation (6.2%) and over-segmentation rates (2.8%).
