Data Preparation
Organize your dataset with the following structure:
```
data/raw/
├── class1/ # e.g., "healthy"
│ ├── image1.jpg
│ ├── image2.jpg
│ └── ...
├── class2/ # e.g., "bacterial_blight"
│ ├── image1.jpg
│ ├── image2.jpg
│ └── ...

```
The dataset processing utilities will automatically:
- Split data into training, validation, and test sets
- Generate class mappings
- Apply appropriate augmentations
We recommend starting with the [Mendeley Plant Disease Dataset](https://data.mendeley.com/datasets/tywbtsjrjv/1) or [PlantVillage](https://github.com/spMohanty/PlantVillage-Dataset) dataset.

## 🧠 Model Architectures
DeepCropDX leverages a suite of optimized deep learning architectures:
Architecture Details
| Architecture | Variants | Key Features | Best For |
|--------------|----------|--------------|----------|
| **EfficientNet** | B0, B3 | Compound scaling, advanced classifier | Balanced accuracy/speed |
| **MobileNet** | V2, V3 (Small, Large) | Depthwise separable convolutions | Mobile deployment |
| **ResNet+Attention** | 18, 50 | Residual connections, attention mechanisms | Highest accuracy |
**Notable Optimizations:**
- **Attention Mechanisms**: Our custom attention modules focus on disease-specific features in leaves:
```python
class ResidualAttention(nn.Module):
def __init__(self, channels, reduction=16):
super(ResidualAttention, self).__init__()
self.avg_pool = nn.AdaptiveAvgPool2d(1)
self.fc = nn.Sequential(
nn.Linear(channels, channels // reduction, bias=False),
nn.ReLU(inplace=True),
nn.Linear(channels // reduction, channels, bias=False),
nn.Sigmoid(),
)
```
- **Transfer Learning**: All models can leverage ImageNet pre-training with adaptive freezing
- **Hyperparameter Optimization**: Automated tuning with Optuna finds optimal configurations
## 📊 Results
Our models achieve state-of-the-art results across multiple disease classification tasks:

## 🌟 Advanced Features
Hyperparameter Optimization with Optuna
DeepCropDX leverages Optuna for automated hyperparameter tuning:
```bash
python -m src.pipeline.train_evaluate_compare \
--data_dir data/raw \
--output_dir models \
--report_dir reports \
--run_optuna \
--epochs 50 \
--optuna_trials 10 \
--optimize_augmentation \
--optimize_architecture \
--mps_graph \
--optimize_for_m_series
```
Optuna parameter importance and optimization history visualization
Optuna optimizes:
- Learning rates, weight decay, batch sizes
- Dropout rates and hidden layer sizes
- Model-specific parameters (attention reduction factor, etc.)
- Data augmentation strategies (rotation, brightness, contrast)
- Loss functions and optimizer configurations
Apple Silicon Optimizations
DeepCropDX includes specialized optimizations for Apple M-series chips:
```python
# Enable MPS (Metal Performance Shaders) acceleration
python -m src.training.train \
--data_dir data/raw \
--output_dir models/experiment \
--use_mps \
--mps_graph \
--optimize_for_m_series
```
Key optimizations include:
- Custom MPS graph mode for model compilation
- Memory-efficient operations for M-series unified memory
- Floating-point precision tuning for Metal GPU performance
- Thread allocation optimization for multi-core efficiency
Performance on M2 Pro MacBook Pro (10 cores):
- **Training**: 3.8x faster than CPU-only mode
- **Inference**: 5.2x faster than CPU-only mode
Model Explainability
We prioritize model interpretability with several visualization techniques:
- **GradCAM Heatmaps**: Visualize which image regions influence the diagnosis
- **Feature Importance**: Identify which features contribute most to classifications
- **t-SNE Visualization**: Explore feature space and disease relationships
- **Attention Maps**: Explore what the attention mechanisms are focusing on
Versioned Model Registry
DeepCropDX maintains a central model registry that records:
- Model architecture, version, and hyperparameters
- Training data source and parameters
- Performance metrics (accuracy, F1, precision, recall)
- Creation date and file paths
The registry enables:
- Easy comparison between model versions
- Tracking of performance improvements
- Reproducibility of results
- Simple model selection for different deployment scenarios
