Leaf recognition using K-NN classification algorithm

Plants play a crucial role in terms of the lives of human and other creatures since the existence of the universe. Despite the studies of plant scientists, there are many undiscovered and unidentified species in our environment. This paper is aimed to add the leaves, whose images have been clearly attained, to the system and to provide a proper analysis of those leaves. The images could be either the ones taken before or the ones obtained by means of a camera that is connected transiently. Leaf images went through pretreatment phases first, and then their features were extracted. Finally, classification processing was accomplished by using K-NN algorithm. The System is working successfully.
