Description
Summary:This research evaluates 20 advanced convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures for classifying mushroom diseases in <i>Agaricus bisporus</i>, utilizing a custom dataset of 3195 images (2464 infected and 731 healthy mushrooms) captured under uniform white-light conditions. The consistent illumination in the dataset enhances the robustness and practical usability of the assessed models. Using a weighted scoring system that incorporates precision, recall, F1-score, area under the ROC curve (AUC), and average precision (AP), ResNet-50 achieved the highest overall score of 99.70%, demonstrating outstanding performance across all disease categories. DenseNet-201 and DarkNet-53 followed closely, confirming their reliability in classification tasks with high recall and precision values. Confusion matrices and ROC curves further validated the classification capabilities of the models. These findings underscore the potential of CNN-based approaches for accurate and efficient early detection of mushroom diseases, contributing to more sustainable and data-driven agricultural practices.
