Early and Accurate Detection of Tomato Leaf Diseases Using TomFormer
Researchers introduce TomFormer, a transformer-based model for accurate and early detection of tomato leaf diseases, with the goal of deployment on the Hello Stretch robot for real-time diagnosis. TomFormer combines a visual transformer and CNN, achieving state-of-the-art results on KUTomaDATA, PlantDoc, and PlantVillage datasets. KUTomaDATA was collected from a greenhouse in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
