Classification of Illness

Classification of Illness

The meaning of illness is individualized to each person who experiences an alteration in health. In contrast, disease is a medical term indicating a pathological change in the structure and function of the body or mind. It is a condition that has specific symptoms and boundaries.
An illness is a response to a disease in which the person's level of functioning is changed compared with a previous level. The general classification of illness includes acute and chronic.
Acute illness is severe...

Survival Tree

Survival Tree

Survival trees are a non-parametric method used in survival analysis to model the relationship between a set of covariates and the time until an event of interest occurs, often referred to as the "time-to-event" or "survival time." This method is particularly useful when dealing with censored data, where the event has not occurred for some individuals by the end of the study period, or when the exact time of the event is unknown.

Classification of Systems-I

Classification of Systems-I

Linearity is a system property characterized by a direct input-output relationship, combining homogeneity and additivity.
Homogeneity dictates that if an input x(t) is multiplied by a constant c, the output y(t) is multiplied by the same constant. Mathematically, this is expressed as:

Classification of Systems-II

Classification of Systems-II

Continuous-time systems have continuous input and output signals, with time measured continuously. These systems are generally defined by differential or algebraic equations. For instance, in an RC circuit, the relationship between input and output voltage is expressed through a differential equation derived from Ohm's law and the capacitor relation,

Machine Learning

Background:

Plant disease classification is crucial for agriculture but traditionally challenging and time-consuming.
Existing methods often struggle with accuracy and complexity trade-offs.
Deep learning architectures like EfficientNet offer promising performance but can be further optimized.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a novel, highly accurate, and computationally efficient method for plant disease classification.
To introduce and evaluate an adaptive minimal ensembling technique for improved diagnostic performance.
To establish a new state-of-the-art benchmark in plant disease identification.

Main Methods:

Utilized EfficientNet as a baseline architecture, incorporating transfer learning, regularization, stratification, weighted metrics, and advanced optimizers.
Introduced adaptive minimal ensembling, a novel technique that ensembles feature vectors from two EfficientNet-b0 models using a trainable layer.
Tested the proposed method on the PlantVillage dataset, including original and augmented versions, using PyTorch for model training and validation.

Main Results:

Achieved 100% accuracy on both the original and augmented PlantVillage datasets, surpassing existing state-of-the-art performance.
Demonstrated that adaptive minimal ensembling significantly improves accuracy with limited complexity.
Validated the robustness and effectiveness of the refined techniques applied to the EfficientNet baseline.

Conclusions:

The proposed method, combining refined EfficientNet techniques with adaptive minimal ensembling, represents a significant advancement in plant disease classification.
The novel ensembling approach offers a leap forward in achieving high accuracy with reduced computational cost.
The study provides a reproducible framework and a publicly available web interface for practical application and further research.
