ANALYSIS OF THE LEAF VEINS AND AREOLES IN DIFFERENT MEDICINAL LEAVES BY USING IMAGE PROCESSING TECHNIQUES
Main Article Content
Abstract
The present study deals with the study of leaf characteristics of medicinal plants of micro and macro levels . The leaves considered are cast roil leaf, betel leaf etc by using the techniques of Image processing. Leaf vein forms the basis of characterization and classification. Different species have different leaf vein patterns. The aim of the work is to classify and authenticate the medicinal plant materials and herbs which are widely used for Indian herbal medicinal products. The quality and authenticity of these leaves are to be ensured for the preparation of herbal medicines. Images play a major role in human perception. The results reveal that is species belonging to the same family exhibit different medicinal properties and species belonging to different families exhibit similar leaf characteristics at the micro and macro levels. The results are presented, discussed and found to be very interesting.
