RESUMEN
Plant diseases are rising nowadays. Plant diseases lead to high economic losses. Internet of Things (IoT) technology has found its application in various sectors. This led to the introduction of smart farming, in which IoT has been utilized to help identify the exact spot of the diseased affected region on the leaf from the vast farmland in a well-organized and automated manner. Thus, the main focus of this task is the introduction of a novel plant disease detection model that relies on IoT technology. The collected images are given to the Image Transmission phase. Here, the encryption task is performed by employing the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and also the decrypted plant images are fed to the pre-processing stage. The Mask Regions with Convolutional Neural Networks (R-CNN) are used to segment the pre-processed images. Then, the segmented images are given to the detection phase in which the Adaptive Dense Hybrid Convolution Network with Attention Mechanism (ADHCN-AM) approach is utilized to perform the detection of plant disease. From the ADHCN-AM, the final detected plant disease outcomes are obtained. Throughout the entire validation, the offered model shows 95% enhancement in terms of MCC showcasing its effectiveness over the existing approaches.
