Research on the construction of a knowledge graph for tomato leaf pests and diseases based on the named entity recognition model.

INTRODUCTION

Tomato leaf pests and diseases pose a significant threat to the yield and quality of Q6 tomatoes, highlighting the necessity for comprehensive studies on effective control methods.

METHODS

Current control measures predominantly rely on experience and manual observation, hindering the integration of multi-source data. To address this, we integrated information resources related to tomato leaf pests and diseases from agricultural standards documents, knowledge websites, and relevant literature. Guided by domain experts, we preprocessed this data to construct a sample set.

RESULTS

We utilized the Named Entity Recognition (NER) model ALBERT-BiLSTM-CRF to conduct end-to-end knowledge extraction experiments, which outperformed traditional models such as 1DCNN-CRF and BiLSTM-CRF, achieving a recall rate of 95.03%. The extracted knowledge was then stored in the Neo4j graph database, effectively visualizing the internal structure of the knowledge graph.

DISCUSSION

We developed a digital diagnostic system for tomato leaf pests and diseases based on the knowledge graph, enabling graphical management and visualization of pest and disease knowledge. The constructed knowledge graph offers insights for controlling tomato leaf pests and diseases and provides new research directions for pest control in other crops.
