Summary
A new Jute Diseases Image Dataset aids machine learning for plant disease diagnosis. This resource supports early detection of jute (Corchorus) diseases, crucial for agriculture.
Area of Science:
- Agricultural Science
- Computer Vision
- Plant Pathology
Background:
- Accurate diagnosis of jute (Corchorus) diseases is vital for crop yield.
- Limited availability of labeled jute disease image data hinders machine learning model development.
Purpose of the Study:
- To present a comprehensive Jute Diseases Image Dataset for machine learning applications.
- To facilitate the development of automated systems for jute plant disease identification.
Main Methods:
- Collected and curated 1390 high-resolution images of jute plant leaves.
- Categorized images into five classes: Dieback, Holed, Mosaic, Stem Soft Rot, and Fresh (healthy).
- Applied pre-processing including resizing (1024x1024) and duplicate removal; created augmented train-test split versions.
Main Results:
- The dataset includes 1390 images across five distinct jute disease categories.
- Images captured under varied conditions enhance model generalizability.
- Visualization techniques (Grad-CAM) validated model attention on disease-relevant areas.
Conclusions:
- The Jute Diseases Image Dataset addresses a critical data gap for agricultural AI.
- Enables timely disease management and supports jute cultivation, especially in key regions like Bangladesh.

8.5K
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.

Cardiac computed tomography (CT) scanning is an advanced cardiac imaging technique that utilizes CT technology, with or without intravenous (IV) contrast, to produce accurate cross-sectional virtual slices of specific areas of the heart, coronary circulation, and major blood vessels such as the aorta, pulmonary veins, and arteries. The computer processes these slices to generate three-dimensional images. Multidetector CT (MDCT) is a rapid form of CT scanning that captures multiple slices...

The connective tissues have different properties and functions in the human body. They are broadly categorized into proper, supporting, or fluid connective tissues.
Connective Tissue Proper
Connective tissue proper is the most abundant class of connective tissues. As its name implies, it predominantly connects different tissues in the body. Depending on the cell types, ground substance, viscosity, and fiber types in the ECM, connective tissue proper is further categorized into loose and dense....

02:16Light Acquisition
9.3K
In order to produce glucose, plants need to capture sufficient light energy. Many modern plants have evolved leaves specialized for light acquisition. Leaves can be only millimeters in width or tens of meters wide, depending on the environment. Due to competition for sunlight, evolution has driven the evolution of increasingly larger leaves and taller plants, to avoid shading by their neighbors with contaminant elaboration of root architecture and mechanisms to transport water and nutrients.

01:29Pulmonary Tuberculosis I
801
Tuberculosis, often called TB, is a contagious illness primarily caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It mainly affects the lung parenchyma but can also impact other body parts.
Causative Organism
The primary infectious agent causing tuberculosis is Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing, acid-fast, aerobic rod that exhibits sensitivity to heat and ultraviolet light. Instances of Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium contributing to the development of TB infection are rare.

Skin is the first line of defense and encounters a variety of microbes. Some pathogenic strains are often the cause of a broad range of infections of the skin and other body systems. These conditions can affect people of all ages and may have different causes, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune reactions, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices.
Gram-positive Staphylococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. are responsible for many of the most common skin infections. However, many...
