An enhanced image based mobile deep learning model for identification of Newcastle poultry disease

An enhanced mobile deep learning model based on images is presented in this paper to identify Newcastle poultry disease. A dataset of manually annotated and labeled images of the disease was utilized to pre-train an image-based Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). An Android smartphone app was developed to communicate with the model. A local server was integrated with the generated model to do image classification. A mobile application was developed and made available, enabling users to upload a fecal photograph to a website housed on the streamlet server and obtain the model's processed findings. The user regains control over their health status. The model achieved an accuracy of 95% on the test set and was able to correctly identify specific instances of Newcastle poultry disease. The paper discusses the advantages of a mobile-based approach in comparison to traditional methods of identification and proposes the model as an effective low-cost solution for farmers and researchers.
