Traditional methods are most often based on visual observations, often with errors in diagnosing diseases. Machine Learning has become a tool that presents itself as an alternative for automatically identifying plant diseases. Our study is to implement a robust method of classification and recognition of coffee leaf diseases using both classical ma learning and deep learning methods, so we set up a custom CNN. These methods were evaluated on the Arabica coffee leaf dataset known as JMuBEN. The results of the classical machine learning methods ranged from 81.03 to 100% and the best performance was obtained with SVM and Random Forest; while the deep learning. In comparison, these provided results between 97.37 and 100% with our CNN custom obtaining receiving accuracy with the lowest loss of 0.013%. Accuracy, precision score, recall, and MCC were employed as performance indicators to support this performance.}, journal = {Journal of Computer Science}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
