A Dataset-Centric Benchmark of Deep Learning Methods for Grape Leaf Disease Classification and Detection

The paper introduces a dataset‑centric benchmark for deep learning approaches to grape leaf disease classification and detection. It evaluates publicly available datasets on disease categories, annotations, acquisition conditions, and class distributions, and tests representative models across image‑level classification, region‑level classification, and object detection. Results reveal high accuracy on controlled datasets but significant performance drops on heterogeneous, real‑world data, especially in cross‑dataset transfer and object detection tasks.

AT-ViT: Area-Targeted Multi-View Vision Transformer with Cross-Attention and Multi-Scale Patching for Plant Trait Recognition in Herbarium Images

AT‑ViT is a dual‑branch Vision Transformer that processes both raw herbarium scans and their segmentation masks through a multi‑scale, multi‑view cross‑attention fusion. It uses a mask‑guided patch weighting scheme to emphasize plant regions and suppress background artifacts, thereby encouraging plant‑centric representations. In trait classification tasks such as leaf base shape and thorns, AT‑ViT consistently outperforms baselines, improves spatial attention grounding (IoU_p +15.66 to +18.03 pp, IoU_b –27.92 to –31.02 pp), and shows greater robustness to synthetic background perturbations, surpassing ResNet101 by up to +32.32 accuracy points and CrossViT by up to +5.07 points. whyItMatters":"The model addresses shortcut learning caused by background cues in herbarium images, leading to more accurate and interpretable plant trait recognition."
