Plant Identification and Classification Using Multiwavelet Transform

Abstract

Identification of a plant is very much essential for the study of plant varieties. A computerized system is required for specifying the characteristics of the plant varieties. The proposed work helps in effective identification and classification of the plant species using its computational model. This proposed system considers all the features of a plant especially the leaf’s shape and venation for the classification of the plant species.The disadvantages of scalar wavelets areovercome with the help of multiwavelets which involves scalar wavelets into the vector space.  Because of this scheme the pitfalls of scalar wavelets are fulfilled.  The characteristics of multiwavelets made them suitable for applying them in image processing to a great extent.
