Introduction
Most of the diseases in plants start from the leaves, and they are the part of the plant where indications of most of the diseases appear first.
Any digital image needs to be stored in the compressed form, and also decompressed later for further processing
Due to the popularity and efficiency of the JPEG compression algorithm, JPEG compressed leaf image dataset is used for experimentation

Proposed Approach
The sample uncompressed disease plant leaves (top) and corresponding images in the DCT compressed domain (bottom)
The CNN is then trained on both the decompressed images and normal RGB images using the concept of Transfer Learning
