The control pests and diseases is considered one of the most important operations of Citrus in the protection stage. Today, a lot of research has been done in various fields of agriculture, including the diagnosis of plant pests and diseases by using machine vision methods. One of the problems that reduce the accuracy of the machine for detecting pests in farm conditions is the presence of adverse factors such as shade and changes in light intensity at different times of the day. In this study, in order to find the appropriate light intensity at different times of the day and increase the brightness of the shady parts of the trees, lighting by a lamp at the imaging site has been used. For detect pest-infected trees (in this snail study) has been used to Deep learning method which has been studied and evaluated by various optimization algorithms such as RMSProp, Adam and SGDm. To evaluate and test the algorithm used, 8000 images were examined in 9 farm conditions and one laboratory state In farm conditions, the lowest detection accuracy of algorithms with 64.32% related to imaging in cloudy days with light intensity of 350 to 700 lux was obtained using RMSProp algorithm, which Detection accuracy was improved up to 95.25% using SGDm algorithm by creating a light intensity controlled by a lamp (approximately 9000 lux). In laboratory conditions where the images were prepared in a controlled environment with constant light intensity, the detection accuracy was Obtained 98.73% with SGDm algorithm.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the image processing technique in rice blast disease detection in field and controlled conditions. Using MATLAB software, images taken from field and controlled conditions were processed in three RGB, HSI and LAB color spaces. Then it was extracted by the gray area intensity profile, color properties, and threshold value for background image removal. After removing background in RGB, HSI and LAB color spaces, disease spots on rice leaf were determined. In RGB color space, by subtracting arrays by test and error, the blast patches on the leaf were separated from the rest of the image pixels. Hue was used in the HSI color space because this component was independent of light intensity variations, so blast blot identification was performed more accurately than the S and I components. In the LAB color space, the Kmeans clustering algorithm was used to segment the images into three clusters and was displayed in an independent cluster after labeling the image of blast disease spots. Finally, in order to determine the performance of the algorithms designed in three color spaces, the sensitivity factor, specificity and total accuracy were tested on the basis of the perturbation matrix for 500 image samples. In field and controlled conditions, the highest accuracy in detecting blast blots in the LAB color space was 94% and 98%, respectively. Overall, the results showed that the image processing method can be used to detect rice blast disease. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
