Severity of Lumpy Disease detection based on Deep Learning Technique

Abstract

The lumpy skin disease epidemic in India claimed the lives of over 97,000 cattle in the three months from July to September 2022. It is spread by ticks and other blood-feeding insects, including some species of mosquito, ticks, and flies. It can also cause fever, skin nodules, and mortality, especially in animals who have never been exposed to the virus before. The spread of the illness might cause "substantial" and "severe" economic damage, according to FAO and WOAH. For the dairy business, the current epidemic in India has proven to be problematic. The severity of Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) in cattle will be identified using the suggested Deep Learning (DL) methodology. Data capture, pre-processing, augmentation, segmentation, feature extraction, and classification are the six processes that comprise the proposed methodology.
