Abstract

The trees are basically identified by their leaves. There are different varieties of trees grown throughout the world. Some are important cash crop. Some are used in medicine. The tree identification is very important in day to day life. Their identifications had been studied using various laboratory methods. The morphological and genetically characteristics were employed to classify different leafs. However, the presence of wide morphological varieties through evolution among the various leaf cultivars made it more complex and difficult to classify them. Therefore manual identification as well as classification of these leaves is a tedious task. During the last few decades computational biologists have studied various diversities among leaf due to huge number of evolutionary changes. Leaf structures play a very crucial role in determining the characteristics of a plant. The broad and narrow shaped leaves, leaf arrangement, leaf margin characteristics features which differentiate various leaf of a tree. This project proposed the methods to identify the leaf using an image analysis based approach.
