TinyCNN is a lightweight convolutional neural network with only 193,190 trainable parameters designed for on‑device plant disease classification. It achieves 98.88% test accuracy on the 38‑class PlantVillage benchmark, outperforming larger models while consuming far less energy, memory, and cost. The study also explores knowledge distillation to further compress the model and evaluates cross‑dataset robustness, finding a significant performance drop when moving from PlantVillage to PlantDoc due to background‑driven shortcut learning.

A100 is a hybrid CNN‑Transformer vision foundation model trained on 3 million unlabeled agricultural images using self‑supervised techniques (DINO, iBOT, KoLeo). It achieves superior crop classification (95.37 % with a frozen backbone) and phenotyping accuracy, and after fine‑tuning reaches 99.90 % on 32‑class crop identification and 99.02 % on 44‑class disease detection. With only 1 % of labeled data, A100 attains 98.01 % plant classification accuracy, outperforming existing baselines and other agricultural foundation models by significant margins.

The paper proposes a comprehensive data generation strategy to improve deep learning performance in classifying olive tree diseases. It combines traditional augmentation, CutMix, MixUp, and DCGAN-generated synthetic images to address data scarcity and class imbalance. Experiments with EfficientNetV2B0 show significant accuracy gains across three distribution scenarios, underscoring the importance of data diversity and balance.
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.

STA‑Net is a lightweight neural network designed for plant disease classification on edge devices. It combines a training‑free neural architecture search (DeepMAD) to build an efficient backbone with a novel Shape‑Texture Attention Module (STAM) that separates shape and texture processing using deformable convolutions and a Gabor filter bank. On the CCMT plant disease dataset, STA‑Net achieved 89.00% accuracy and 88.96% F1 score with only 401K parameters and 51.1M FLOPs.
