With an increasing preference for permanent implants, this study aimed to compare the long-term clinical outcomes of three different non-resorbable materials in reconstructing isolated orbital floor fractures.
Design: A retrospective, interventional comparative study.
This paper presents a novel methodology for plant disease detection using YOLOv8 (You Only Look Once version 8), a state-of-the-art object detection model designed for real-time image classification and recognition tasks. The proposed approach involves training a custom YOLOv8 model to detect and classify various plant conditions accurately. The model was evaluated using a testing subset to measure its performance in detecting different plant diseases.
