description | The characterization of health status for a plant using a non-destructive method is one of the challenging
problems. In this study, the number of leaves and discoloration properties have been estimated using the
images obtained from nine saplings of Solanum melongena (eggplant or brinjal) grown in the laboratory.
The images were obtained using a mobile phone camera fitted on an automated device. A particle wave
algorithm and contour grow technique was used for the segmentation of leaves which resulted in a
segmentation accuracy of 89%. The defective percentage was estimated based on which saplings were
ranked. Validation of healthy and defective regions was done by applying linear regression analysis
on the estimated Normalized Green Red Difference Index (NGRDI) from images obtained using an automated
device and a Foldscope (new paper-based microscope). The analysis resulted in R squared value and
Least Mean Square Error (LMSE) of 0.86 and 0.1 respectively. |
