Key Findings
- Researchers at Weifang University of Science and Technology developed TomatoDet, a new method to detect tomato diseases in complex farm images
- TomatoDet uses a self-attention mechanism to focus on disease symptoms, reducing false positives/negatives, and achieving a 92.3% accuracy
- The method operates at 46.6 frames per second, suitable for real-time disease detection in agricultural settings
