摘要

Plant diseases represent a significant challenge to global agriculture, leading to substantial yield and quality losses if not detected early. This paper presents an end-to-end framework for plant leaf disease identification and severity grading from a single red–green–blue (RGB) image. The system integrates a lightweight You Only Look Once (YOLO) v8n classification model (YOLOv8n-cls) for simultaneous crop and disease recognition with a hybrid hue–saturation–value (HSV)–Lab color-space segmentation pipeline refined using GrabCut to isolate leaf and lesion regions. The percentage infected area (PIA) is computed and mapped into interpretable severity categories—Mild, Moderate, and Severe—using a fuzzy logic inference engine, while a consistency layer compares predicted labels with measured lesion ratios to reduce borderline misclassifications. The complete pipeline is implemented as a Streamlit-based application providing visual overlays, confidence scores, severity grades, and exportable reports. Experimental evaluation on the PlantVillage benchmark dataset achieved a Top‑1 classification accuracy of 98.7% on the held-out test split, demonstrating the feasibility and interpretability of the proposed approach under controlled dataset conditions.
