Abstract

The need to automate the disease identification processes is frequent because manual identification is time-consuming and needs professional skills to be performed; hence, it may improve effectiveness and precision. This paper has resolved the problem by using image classification with deep learning to detect silkworm diseases. A Kaggle-sourced dataset of work of 492 labelled samples (247 diseased and 245 healthy) was used with a stratified division into 392 training and 100 testing samples. The transfer learning method was performed on two Residual Network models, ResNet-18 and ResNet-50, in which pretrained convolutional layers were frozen and the last fully connected layer was trained to conduct binomial classification. Performance was measured by standard evaluation metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and confusion matrices.
