ToxHerb-Net: Donguibogam-inspired Vision-based Discriminator Network for Poisonous vs Medicinal Herb Classification
(A Donguibogam-inspired image classification model for poisonous vs medicinal herbs)
ToxHerb-Net is an image classification model that distinguishes poisonous herbs (Poisonous) from medicinal herbs (Medicinal) using Donguibogam-inspired poisonous herb identification image data. We selected benchmark models pretrained on large-scale image datasets as backbones, then performed transfer learning on approximately 600GB of poisonous herb identification images to choose the best-performing model. In experiments with an EfficientNet backbone, the model achieved a Top-1 Accuracy of 88.932%, demonstrating its effectiveness for poisonous vs medicinal herb classification.
