Background And Objectives: Early breast cancer subtypes classification improves the survival rate as it facilitates prognosis of the patient. In literature this problem was prominently solved by various Machine Learning and Deep Learning techniques. However, these studies have three major shortcomings: huge Trainable Weight Parameters (TWP), suffer from low performance and class imbalance problem.

Plant disease diagnosis with estimation of disease severity at early stages still remains a significant research challenge in agriculture. It is helpful in diagnosing plant diseases at the earliest so that timely action can be taken for curing the disease. Existing studies often rely on labor-intensive manually annotated large datasets for disease severity estimation.

In the agricultural sector, identifying plant diseases at their earliest possible stage of infestation still remains a huge challenge with respect to the maximization of crop production and farmers' income. In recent years, advanced computer vision techniques like Vision Transformers (ViTs) are being successfully applied to identify plant diseases automatically. However, the MLP module in existing ViTs is computationally expensive as well as inefficient in extracting promising features from diseased images.
