Abstract

This paper proposed a novel approach to cluster the species of plants based on their lobes, sinuses and margin. Firstly, all the boundary points in the clockwise or anticlockwise direction were selected. Then, an estimated centre point for leaf boundary points was used to compute the distance between the leaf boundary points and centre point. Next, the peaks and valleys from the distance found stated above were located where peaks represent lobes and valleys represent the sinuses. The number of peak and valleys is calculated to cluster the plant according to the rule-based method. From the results obtained, the accuracy for the plant clustering is up to 100 percent.
