Identifying Rice Plant Damage Due to Pest Attacks Using Convolutional Neural Networks

Rice (Oryza Sativa) is an important crop for meeting global food needs; however, one of the main challenges in its cultivation is the attack of stem borer pests, which can cause significant damage. This study aims to identify the damage caused by these pest attacks using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) methods. We developed and trained several CNN architectures, including the proposed architecture, MobileNet, and EfficientNetB0, to detect pest attacks on rice. The dataset used consists of 700 images per class taken directly from the field, where the images depict rice plants that have been peeled or opened toinspect for the presence of pests, specifically stem borer pests. To enhance the quality and diversity of the dataset, we applied a rigorous selection process, ensuring that only high-quality images were used. Additionally, augmentation techniques such as rotation were employed toexpand the dataset to 2000 images per class. Labeling was carried out carefully to ensure that each image accurately reflected the condition of the pest attack. The results of the study indicate that the proposed CNN model can identify damage with high accuracy, thereby contributing to efforts to increase rice production through early detection of pest attacks using computer vision technology.
