Abstract
The identification and classification of plant diseases is of great significance to ecological protection and deep learning methods have made a great of progress in the common plant diseases identification for specific plant. While faced with the same plant disease of other plants, due to the insufficient or low quality training data, current deep learning methods will be difficult to identify the diseases effectively and accurately. Inspired by the advantages of GAN in dataset expansion, we propose the CycleGAN based confusion model in this paper. In this paper, GAN framework is improved by adding noise label and learn together during training stage, which migrates the data of common plant diseases to the plants with insufficient or low quality data. In order to evaluate the quality of the migrated training dataset among different GAN approaches, we introduce the quality indicators of the migration images such as MMD, FID, EMD etc. We compare our model with other GANs model, and the experimental results show that the proposed model obtains better results in the migration process, which make it more effective for the identification of cross species plant diseases.
