Plant & Tree Recognition

It is a simple task for humans to visually identify objects. However, computer-based image recognition remains challenging. So, this is an approach for image recognition with specific focus on automated recognition of plants and trees. The aim of the application is to provide an information about the plants or trees by recognizing an image which is taken by the user. Also, that information will be used further to expand and improve the database. Also, this app will provide the map facility for finding the nearby plants and trees. Automatic plant and tree recognition with image processing have application in leaf identi�cation, species discovery, plant taxonomy, natural reserve park management and so on. It is considered a �ne-grained image recognition problem and hard to solve. In this report, I describe my exploration with this problem, using traditional handcrafted features and features extracted from pretrained deep convolution neural network.
