Plant leaf classification using hybrid low level features with enhanced feature selection algorithm

Abstract

Plants play an important role in both human life and other lives that exist on the earth Plants play the most critical impact in the cycle of nature Plant recognition is very demanding in biology and agriculture as new plant discovery and the computerization of the administration of plant species turns out to be more famous newlineAutomatic plant classification systems are essential for a wide range of applications including environmental protection plant resource survey as well as for education Apart from using the whole plant the automation of plant identification can be performed using various parts of a plant anatomy like stem flower petal seed and leaf This research focuses on the automation of plant identification through leaf recognition Automated identification of plant species using leaf images is a worthwhile goal because of the current combination of rapidly decreasing biodiversity and the shortage of suitably qualified taxonomists This is particularly important in geographic locations which currently have a huge number of species and the largest number of species restricted to that geographic area newline newline
