Investigating classification learning curves for automatically generated and labelled plant images

Michael A. Beck, Christopher P. Bidinosti, Christopher J. Henry +1

In the context of supervised machine learning a learning curve describes how a model's performance on unseen data relates to the amount of samples used to train the model. In this…
