摘要: Fine-grained image classification is a challenging task because of the difficulty in identifying discriminant features, it is not easy to find the subtle features that fully represent the object. In the fine-grained classification of crop disease, visual disturbances such as light, fog, overlap, and jitter are frequently encountered. To explore the influence of the features of crop leaf images on the classification results, a classification model should focus on the more discriminative regions of the image while improving the classification accuracy of the model in complex scenes. This paper proposes a novel attention mechanism that effectively utilizes the informative regions of an image, and describes the use of transfer learning to quickly construct several fine-grained image classification models of crop disease based on this attention mechanism. This study uses 58,200 crop leaf images as a dataset, including 14 different crops and 37 different categories of healthy/diseased crops. Among them, different diseases of the same crop have strong similarities. The NASNetLarge fine-grained classification model based on the proposed attention mechanism achieves the best classification effect, with an F-1 score of up to 93.05%. The results show that the proposed attention mechanism effectively improves the fine-grained classification of crop disease images.
