Updating “machine learning imagery dataset for maize crop: A case of Tanzania” with expanded data to cover the new farming season
(Elsevier Inc., 2024-03-23)
Maize Lethal Necrosis (MLN) and Maize Streak Virus (MSV)
are among maize diseases which affect productivity in Tan-
zania and Africa at large. These diseases can be detected
early for timely interventions and minimal ...
Image Segmentation Deep Learning Model for Early Detection of Banana Diseases
(Taylor & Francis online, 2024-12-14)
Bananas are among the most widely produced perennial fruits and staple food crops that are highly affected by numerous diseases. When not managed early, Fusarium Wilt and Black Sigatoka are two of the most detrimental ...
Deep learning models for the early detection of maize streak virus and maize lethal necrosis diseases in Tanzania
(International Journal of Innovative Research & Development, 2024-08-16)
Agriculture is considered the backbone of Tanzania’s economy, with more
than 60% of the residents depending on it for survival. Maize is the country’s
