Abstract

Currently, this research advances on improvement of diagnostic methods for diseases that affect plants within the paddy fields to improve crop management and subsequently the efficiency of agricultural production. The research also presents a new method that addresses the problem through filter-based feature transformation methods which enhance the input features fed to disease detection models. All these


transformations are geared towards increasing the accuracy and efficiency of the existing paddy disease identification systems. This investigation will also show a dramatic increase in the accuracy of detection as one of the key results. Interestingly, if such transformed features are fed into the K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) classifier, a most frequently used classifier in the field of machine learning for classification, a


balanced accuracy of 90% is obtained. From this the proposed method is quite viable and powerful enough to provide accurate and genuine diagnosis of disease in the paddy crops. Therefore, the novelty and practical use of the findings of this research is not limited merely to theoretical implications but rather it provides practicing real and tangible values in various aspects of sustainable agriculture and crop science.


Improvement of disease diagnosis frequency and reliability helps farmers to promptly start an effective fight against infectious diseases, thus decreasing yield losses and contributing to food safety. Conclusively, this project represents a significant progress in applying complex computational techniques for tackling real life issues in agriculture. Filter based feature transformation is reported to pose an effective technique that can be adopted to enhance disease detection systems and consequently enhance paddy farming across the world.


Introduction: The paper investigates methods to improve paddy crop disease diagnostics which aims at enhancing farming management practices along with agricultural productivity rates. The research introduces novel filter-based technology which enhances the quality of features that feed disease detection models. The new system designs work to improve both speed and precision of paddy disease identification systems currently in use. The research delivers major advancements in detection accuracy as giving proper disease diagnoses at right times minimizes agricultural damage and improves food safety in farming operations.


Objectives: This research aims to improve both paddy disease detection system precision and system reliability through its main objectives. The aim of applying filter-based feature transformation is to enhance K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) classifier performance by optimizing the input features. This research aims to develop a practical detection system that combines features for paddy disease identification while addressing diseases so paddy farmers can achieve sustainable food security.


Method: The study utilizes filter-based feature transformation as a preprocessing method for data preparation before feeding it to detect diseases in paddy crops. The model uses transformed features to test them within the K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) classifier which stands as a popular machine learning model used for classification operations. The method undergoes assessment regarding its capability to enhance detection accuracy and achieve optimal sensitivity and specificity balance. The investigation examines different approaches to transform features while studying their influence on model effectiveness and demonstrates practical field applications of the results in agricultural settings..


Results: When K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) classifier processes the transformed features the analysis shows a 90% accuracy in disease detection. The proposed filter-based feature transformation method demonstrates its effectiveness at boosting disease detection systems for paddy crops according to this result. Disease diagnosis efficiency combined with more accurate tools gives farmers better options to detect diseases at an early stage for effective decision-making and timely responses to disease outbreaks that reduce crop yield damages.


Conclusion: This study marks considerable advancement in using computational methods to solve genuine agricultural problems. The filter-based feature transformation system establishes itself as an effective technique to enhance disease detection protocols while supporting eco-friendly farming and better food quality assurance systems. The research confirms that sophisticated machine learning algorithms provide farmers with sustainable tools to fight infectious diseases in their paddy fields. A timely correct disease diagnosis stands fundamental to protect global food supply and sustainable agriculture.
