This study delves into the application of deep learning for precise tomato disease detection, focusing on four crucial categories: healthy, blossom end rot, splitting rotation, and sun-scaled rotation. The performance two lightweight object detection models, namely YOLOv5l YOLOv8l, was compared a custom dataset. Initially, both models were trained without data augmentation to establish baseline. Subsequently, diverse techniques obtained from Roboflow significantly expand enrich dataset content. These aimed enhance models' robustness variations in lighting, pose, background conditions. Following augmentation, YOLOv8l re-trained their across all categories meticulously analyzed. After significant improvement accuracy observed highlighting its effectiveness bolstering ability accurately detect diseases. consistently achieved slightly higher YOLOv5l, particularly when excluding images evaluation.

Deep learning is a concept of artificial neural networks and subset machine learning. It deals with algorithms that train process datasets to make inferences for future samples, imitating the human from experiences. In this study, YOLOv5 YOLOv6 object detection models were compared on plant dataset in terms accuracy time metrics. Each model was trained obtain specific results mean Average Precision (mAP) training time. There no considerable difference mAP between both models, as their close. YOLOv5, having 63.5% mAP, slightly outperformed YOLOv6, while 49.6% mAP50-95, better than YOLOv5. Furthermore, data shorter since it has fewer parameters.

Nowadays, children face different changes and challenges from an early age, which can have long-lasting impacts on them. Many struggle to express or explain their feelings thoughts properly. Due that fact, psychological mental health specialists found a way detect issues by observing analyzing signs in children’s drawings. Yet, this process remains complex time-consuming. This study proposes solution employing artificial intelligence analyze drawings provide diagnosis rates with high accuracy. While prior research has focused detecting through questionnaires, only one explored emotions children's positive negative feelings. A notable gap is the limited of specific issues, along promising accuracy detection results. In study, versions YOLO were trained dataset 500 drawings, split into 80% for training, 10% validation, testing. Each drawing was annotated more emotional labels: happy, sad, anxiety, anger, aggression. YOLOv8-cls, YOLOv9, ResNet50 used object classification, achieving accuracies 94%, 95.1%, 70.3%, respectively. YOLOv9 results obtained at epoch numbers large model sizes 5.26 MB 94.3 MB. YOLOv8-cls achieved most satisfying result, reaching 94% after 10 epochs compact size 2.83 MB, effectively meeting study's goals.
