Leaf features based approach for automated identification of medicinal plants
E. Sandeep Kumar, Viswanath Talasila · 2014
Use of the correct plant extracts is crucial in Ayurvedic treatment. This paper focuses on the automatic identification of medicinal plants that are commonly used in Ayurveda. Previous work indicated a Gaussian distribution for various image related features of the medical plant leaves. This work strengthens this conclusion by extending the results through a better classifier design. In this work, we have considered additional plant species to prove that obtained image features are again Gaussian distributed, with the accuracy of the classifier computed.
