KrishokChat: Agricultural Vision & Soil Intelligence Model Suite
This repository contains the complete, production-ready suite of machine learning models developed for the KrishokChat Advisory System. These models are packaged into self-contained, folderized directories to enable academic reviewers, agronomists, and developers to reproduce and run our full diagnostic pipeline locally without requiring expensive cloud GPU servers.
1. Architectural Overview
The KrishokChat perception and diagnostic stack uses a multi-tier decoupled architecture:
- Tier 1: Crop Species Identification — A
YOLO26-clsmodel identifying 10 major crop families in Bangladesh to eliminate cross-crop pesticide misbinding hazard. - Tier 2: Specialized Crop Pathology Diagnosis — Six per-crop dedicated
YOLO26-clsmodels diagnosing foliar fungal, bacterial, viral, and physiological diseases. - Tier 3: Soil Moisture Matric Tension Estimation — A 5-fold cross-validated
EfficientNet-B0regression model predicting continuous soil suction pressure ($\text{kPa}$) directly from field images for precision irrigation guidance.

4. Quickstart Guide for Academic Reviewers
Step 1: Install Dependencies
cd backend_models
pip install -r requirements.txt
Step 2: Automated Verification of All Models
Run the automated test runner to verify that every single model checkpoint loads into memory, performs forward inference, and verifies against class specifications:
python verify_all_models.py
Step 3: Run Standalone Inferences
Test Potato Disease Diagnosis:
python run_inference.py --crop potato --image sample_images/potato_sample.jpg
Test Rice Disease Diagnosis:
python run_inference.py --crop rice --image sample_images/rice_sample.jpg
Test Wheat Disease Diagnosis:
python run_inference.py --crop wheat --image sample_images/wheat_sample.jpg
Test Soil Moisture Regression:
python run_inference.py --task soil --image sample_images/crop_sample.jpg
5. Python API Usage
Vision Models (YOLO26)
from ultralytics import YOLO
# Load any specialized YOLO26 pathology classifier
model = YOLO("02_potato_disease/potato_disease.pt")
# Predict on an RGB image
results = model.predict("sample_images/potato_sample.jpg", imgsz=224, verbose=False)[0]
top_class = model.names[results.probs.top1]
confidence = float(results.probs.top1conf)
print(f"Result: {top_class} ({confidence:.2%})")
Soil Moisture Regression (5-Fold Ensemble)
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, "08_soil_moisture")
from model_def import load_soil_model
import torch
import torchvision.transforms as T
from PIL import Image
transform = T.Compose([
T.Resize((224, 224)),
T.ToTensor(),
T.Normalize(mean=[0.485, 0.456, 0.406], std=[0.229, 0.224, 0.225])
])
img = transform(Image.open("sample_images/crop_sample.jpg").convert("RGB")).unsqueeze(0)
# Ensemble average across 5 folds
predictions = []
for fold in range(5):
m = load_soil_model(f"08_soil_moisture/effnetb0_fold{fold}.pt")
with torch.no_grad():
predictions.append(m(img).item())
mean_kpa = sum(predictions) / len(predictions)
print(f"Estimated Soil Matric Potential: {mean_kpa:.2f} kPa")
