Feature extraction of plant species from leaf architecture

Plants are very important for human being as well as for other living species on the earth. The food that people eat daily, comes directly or indirectly from plants. In medical field, doctors use X-ray image to correctly identify disease. Here we used the same principle. Geometrical features and digital morphological features are extracted from 2-dimensional image of leaf. The aim of this study is to introduce suitable features of leaf image which can be useful in further research on plant identification.
