摘要

Recognizing plant diseases is vital for productivity but remains challenging across species. This study now presents a novel ensemble-style technique which combined ResNet, Vision Transformer, Xception, and a Sequential type. It has made use of advanced data augmentation such as resizing, rescaling, thresholding, and binarization in extracting features using Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOGs). Dense layers were trained with the models achieving high detection capability across 10 plant species covering 36 disease classes. It emphasizes indicating the importance of ensemble learning in three applications as such using modernistic technologies such as drones and IoT devices to manage and analyze large-scale agricultural data; integrating disease detection with soil and weather data for optimized resource use; and real-time alerts through IoT systems for timely intervention. This study proves that by way of transforming plant disease detection and agricultural activity, ensemble learning will change the agricultural scene altogether.
