The document discusses how plant diseases like rusts, blights, and wilts can devastate important crops and disrupt ecosystems, highlighting the importance of early detection and accurate identification of diseases for effective management. It then describes a machine learning model trained on a large image dataset to identify diseased plants using an unsupervised KNN method, where the model searches for similarities to past images to make identifications, with the goal of automating disease identification.

plants, leading to stunted growth and reduced crop production.
These diseases spread easily through spores, insects, and
contaminated soil, causing widespread damage. Rusts, blights, and wilts are common afflictions that can devastate crops like wheat, potatoes, and tomatoes. Besides economic consequences, plant diseases disrupt the delicate balance of ecosystems, affecting biodiversity and food chains. These plants can be treated if they are identified as diseased. Early detection and accurate identification of these diseases are essential for effective disease management. Machine learning and image processing techniques have shown promise in automating the process of disease identification. Model information and description: This model has been trained with huge datasets of diseased and healthy plants. The model uses unsupervised learning to detect unhealthy plants. It can identify diseased plants without being explicitly programmed. It uses the KNN method (K-Nearest neighbours). In this method, the model searches through its training data to identify similarities between the current image and the ones with which it has been trained. This plant disease detector model has been made using python. It has been trained using a huge dataset of images. This is an AI model. It has been made using several
