摘要

Agriculture sector is faced with perennial challenges that threaten both its productivity and sustainability. Among the greatest threats to cereal crops is disease, especially on cereal grains such as maize. Maize is an important grain that has grown globally, yet it often falls prey to maize leaf disease, a destructive and prevalent disorder. The consequences of these diseases go beyond individual farmers; reduced yields destabilize supply chains, market stability, and global efforts towards creating sustainable food systems. The prevalence of leaf diseases adversely affects crop productivity, which directly impacts the objective of sustainable agriculture. In order to address this problem, technology, more specifically artificial intelligence, has been a game-changer. Adopting cutting-edge research for maize disease detection not only raises diagnostic accuracy but also supports sustainable agricultural practices. This approach encourages effective input use, supports food security, minimizes environmental degradation, and provides farmers with accurate tools, all of which contribute to long-term agricultural resilience and sustainability. However, the incorporation of AI in farming is confronted by a number of challenges. Numerous hindrances hinder precise detection and categorization of maize leaf diseases via artificial intelligence methods. In tackling the limitations, the current study introduces an AI-based approach. It applied Multi-scaled Xception pre-trained models to extract deep features from images. The models were fine-tuned with varying weights for advancing the feature extraction so as to enhance the likelihood of correct visual classification. In addition to its strong accuracy, the research provides a formal and strict mathematical formulation, and different optimization methods further establish the effectiveness of the model. Additionally, the examination of fusion operators helps to improve the interpretability of the model. The expected model was tested with a confidence interval, showing that its performance remains within set limits.
