Aknowledgement: Engineering and Technology, For His Encouragement and Support
We express my heartfelt and sincere gratitude to GOD Almighty,for his blessings for the
successful completion of our project work without any hindrances.
The support and help of a fewpeople not only enabled us to complete our work successful and
also made it a worthwhile experience. I thank the management for providing all the support
and facilities.
We would like to express my sincere thanks to Prof. Elias Janson, Head of the Department,
Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, for his encouragement and
support.
We are greatly indebted to my seminar guide Prof. Anu Mary Mathew, Assistant Professor,
Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, for her valuable suggestions and
ideas that has been the source of inspiration throughout our project work.
We also express my sincere thanks to my parents for their guidance and wholehearted
support.
We convey my sincere thanks to all other faculties for their help and encouragement. I thank
all my friends who have helped me during the work, with their inspiration and co-operation.
OnceagainI convey my gratitude to all those persons who had directly or indirectly

ABSTRACT
The project presents an analysis of the characteristics of the leaf using image processing
techniques for an automated vision system used in agricultural lands. In agriculture, the
search for automatic detection of leaf characteristics is essential for monitoring large fields
and, therefore, automatically detects the symptoms of the leaves as soon as they appear on the
leaves of the plants. The proposed decision-making system uses the characterization of the
content of the image and a network of supervised classification neurons. Image processing
techniques for this type of decision analysis include pretreatment, feature extraction and
classification steps. During processing, the size of an input image will be resized and, if
necessary, a region of interest will be selected. Here, the characteristics of color and texture
are extracted from an input for the formation and classification of the network. Color
characteristics as an average, standard deviation of the HSV color space and texture
characteristics such as energy, contrast, homogeneity and correlation. The system will be
used to automatically classify the test images to determine the characteristics of the leaf. For
this approach, the automatic NN classifier can be used for classification based on learning
with examples of learning in this category. This network uses the sigmoid tangent function as
a function of the kernel. Finally, the simulated result shows that the network classifier used
provides a minimum error during training and better classification accuracy.
