Plant disease detection has made significant strides thanks to the emergence of deep learning. However, existing methods have been limited to closed-set and static learning settings, where models are trained using a specific dataset. This confinement restricts the model’s adaptability when encountering samples from unseen disease categories. Additionally, there is a challenge of knowledge degradation for these static learning settings, as the acquisition of new knowledge tends to overwrite the old when learning new categories. To overcome these limitations, this study introduces a novel paradigm for plant disease detection called open-world setting. Our approach can infer disease categories that have never been seen during the model training phase and gradually learn these unseen diseases through dynamic knowledge updates in the next training phase. Specifically, we utilize a well-trained unknown-aware region proposal network to generate pseudo-labels for unknown diseases during training and employ a class-agnostic classifier to enhance the recall rate for unknown diseases. Besides, we employ a sample replay strategy to maintain recognition ability for previously learned classes. Extensive experimental evaluation and ablation studies investigate the efficacy of our method in detecting old and unknown classes. Remarkably, our method demonstrates robust generalization ability even in cross-species disease detection experiments. Overall, this open-world and dynamically updated detection method shows promising potential to become the future paradigm for plant disease detection. We discuss open issues including classification and localization, and propose promising approaches to address them. We encourage further research in the community to tackle the crucial challenges in open-world plant disease detection. The code will be released at https://github.com/JiuqingDong/OWPDD. |
