Plant Classifier — EfficientNet-B3, 39 classes
Frozen PyTorch checkpoint for plant/crop classification. The model was trained with supervised contrastive pretraining, cross-entropy fine-tuning, and TrivialAugment.
Intended use
The model predicts the plant identity before a crop-specific disease detector and recommendation system. It is a plant classifier, not a disease classifier.
Input preprocessing
- Convert the image to RGB.
- Resize the longest side to 380 pixels while preserving aspect ratio.
- Pad to 380 × 380 with black pixels.
- Normalize with ImageNet mean
(0.485, 0.456, 0.406) and standard deviation (0.229, 0.224, 0.225).
- Do not apply training augmentation during inference.
The checkpoint contains model and class_to_idx. Reconstruct torchvision.models.efficientnet_b3(weights=None), replace the final classifier with a 39-output linear layer, and load checkpoint["model"].
For confidence scores, apply softmax directly to the logits. The deployed API intentionally uses raw, uncalibrated probabilities.
