Abstract

Plant diseases pose significant threats to agriculture, making proper diagnosis and effective treatment crucial for protecting crop yields. In automatic diagnosis processing, image segmentation helps to identify and localize diseases. Developing robust image segmentation models for detecting plant diseases requires high-quality annotations. Unfortunately, existing datasets rarely include segmentation labels and are typically confined to controlled laboratory settings, which fail to capture the complexity of images taken in the wild. Motivated by these, we established a large-scale segmentation dataset for plant diseases, dubbed PlantSeg. In particular, PlantSeg is distinct from existing datasets in three key…
