Our dataset comprised a combination of common and rare species, incorporating measurements and photographic data. Using a Convolutional Neural Network model based on the VGG16 architecture with transfer learning, we achieved 96% accuracy and 88% validation accuracy. Additionally, our supervised and unsupervised learning models provided perfect clustering and prediction results with 100% accuracy. Despite limited computational resources, our comprehensive approach demonstrates the potential of machine learning in enhancing plant identification accuracy and efficiency. Furthermore, we managed to design an interface for a future application called Eco Explorer that can perform the identification tasks.enPlant identificationMachine learningSupervised learningUnsupervised learningDeep learningTransfer learningCNNVGG16Eco ExplorerDevelopment of a Database and a Machine Learning Model for the Rapid Identification of Certain Pinaceae Species in AlgeriaThesis
