LEAF COLOR, AREA AND EDGE FEATURES BASED APPROACH FOR IDENTIFICATION OF INDIAN MEDICINAL PLANTS
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Computer Science and Engineering - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
This paper presents a method for identification of medicinal plants based on some important features extracted from its leaf images. Medicinal plants are the essential aspects of ayurvedic system of medicine. The leaf extracts of many medicinal plants can cure various diseases and have become alternate for allopathic medicinal system now a days. Hence this paper presents an approach where the plant is identified based on its leaf features such as area, color histogram and edge histogram. Experimental analysis was conducted with few medicinal plant species such as Hibiscus, Betle, Ocimum, Leucas, Vinca, Murraya, Centella, Ruta and Mentha. The result proves this method to be a simple and an efficient attempt.
