Abstract
Tree identification is an important task in biological research. Since not all biologists are qualified for this task and experts are not accessible all the time, an application to assist in plant identification would be extremely useful. This paper describes an application classifies the type of a tree based on a picture of one of its leaves. The system developed for this research utilizes a convolutional neural network in an android mobile application to classify natural images of leaves.
