Abstract | This paper proposes a sophisticated classification process to segment the leaves of carrots from weeds. In the early stages of the plants' development, the color of both the plants and the weeds are similar, making it difficult to differentiate between the two. The process becomes even harder if the weeds and plants overlap. The proposed system addresses this problem by creating a sophisticated mean for weed identification. The major components of this system are composed of three processes: image segmentation, feature extraction and decision-making. In the image segmentation process, the input images are processed into lower units where the relevant features are extracted. In the decision-making process, the system makes use of the Support Vector Machine to analyze and segregate the weeds from the plants. Afterward, the findings are used to dictate which plants receive herbicides and which do not. The main priority for the image segmentation process is on the overlapping images where weeds need to be isolated from plants so that they can be used for cultivation purpose. The evaluation of the approach is done using an open dataset of images consisting of carrot plants. The system is able to achieve 88.99% accuracy for weed classification using this dataset. This methodology will help to reduce the use of herbicides while improving the performance and costs of precision agriculture. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
