Abstract:

In today's time, our nature is fighting against many life-threatening problems which can even threaten the existence of life on the Earth. Pollution is one of the deadliest problems among them. It is caused primarily by means of air, water and land but air pollution is the most severe and dreadful among them. It is caused by introduction of toxic substances like oxides of Sulphur, nitrogen and carbon into the atmosphere making it unfit for living beings. Along with humans, plants have also become a victim to it, and this fact is mostly ignored. A model has been designed to predict the effect of pollution on plants. Image samples of 5 Indian oxygen rich plants namely Ocimum Tenuiflorum, Sansevieria Trifasciata, Chlorophytum Comosum, and Azadirachta Indica have been taken for analysis and various properties like shape, color, corners and texture of the plants were considered from these input RGB images. As a consequence of these properties and the pollution index value, certain calculations have been performed and the results are compared with the threshold values. Based on the range in which the calculated results lie, the plants will be categorized into a category which depicts the severity level of pollution in the environment. After applying the model on the images, a dataset was prepared and SVM classification model has been trained on it which predict with an accuracy of 85%. It has been presented in the form of an interactive user interface to predict the effect of pollution on plants. Plants are an integral part of nature and should not be ignored.
