The dataset (3809 images) was developed under MoU between IIIT-Naya Raipur (C.G.) and Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur, which consists of Eocanthecona Bug, Tobacco Caterpillar, Red Hairy Caterpillar, and Larva Spodoptera. The VGG16 and GoogLeNet deep learning models have been developed with the dataset and found decent performance as with VGG16 (validation accuracy: 97.78 …
