Computer Vision Model to identify different plants.

I have a small project to identify different plants and flowers in my garden so I’m looking for best computer vision model or even a combination of LLMs out there. I found several computer vision models perform well in plant identification. Here are some top contenders to consider, depending on your specific needs:

1. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs):

• These are the current state-of-the-art for plant identification.
• Popular pre-trained CNN options include:
  • ResNet: Known for its accuracy and efficiency, especially variants like ResNet-50 or the customized ResNet26 for plant images.
  • MobileNetV2: A lighter-weight option ideal for mobile applications due to its faster processing speed with good accuracy.

2. Other Models:

• Bag-of-Words (BoW) model with Scale-Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT): This approach extracts keypoint features from the image and uses them for classification. While not the most advanced, it can be a good option for smaller datasets.

Choosing the best model depends on factors like:

• Dataset size and variety: CNNs generally perform better with extensive training data.
• Computational resources: ResNet might be more demanding than MobileNetV2.
• Application requirements: If you need a mobile app, MobileNetV2’s efficiency might be crucial.

Here are some additional resources to help you decide:
