Abstract

In view of the fact that most people do not know the names of the plants which can be seen everywhere, a plant search system with artificial intelligence on PDA devices is developed. In this study, users need to input the classified characteristics of leaves by observing plants' leaves. After calculating the centroid-contour distance (CCD) and fuzzy function for all characteristics, the search results are displayed and arranged according to their ranks. Thus there is no need to consult all kinds of correlative books about plants. With the help of the plant search system on PDA devices, users can broaden their knowledge by mobile learning and the observation of plants.
