However, the task remains challenging due to large variations in lesion scale—ranging from minute incipient spots to coalesced regions—and ambiguous, low-contrast boundaries that blend into healthy tissue.  \nMethods: We present GARDEN, a Gradient-guided boundary-Aware RegionDriven Edge-reﬁNement network that uniﬁes multi-scale context modeling with selective long-range boundary reﬁnement. Our approach integrates a Multi-Scale Context Aggregation (MSCA) module to harvest contextual cues across diverse receptive ﬁelds, forming scale-consistent lesion priors to improve sensitivity to tiny lesions. Additionally, we introduce a Boundary-aware Selective Scanning (BASS) module conditioned on a Gradient-Guided Boundary Predictor (GGBP) . This module produces an explicit boundary prior to steer a Mambabased 2D selective scan, allocating long-range reasoning to boundary-uncertain pixels while relying on local evidence in conﬁdent interiors.  \nResults: Validated across two public plant disease datasets, GARDEN achieves state-of-the-art results on both overlap and boundary metrics. Speciﬁcally, the model demonstrates pronounced gains on small lesions and boundaryambiguous cases . Qualitative results further show sharper contours and reduced spurious responses to illumination and viewpoint changes compared to existing methods.  \nDiscussion: By coupling scale robustness with boundary precision in a single architecture, GARDEN delivers accurate and reliable plant lesion segmentation. This method effectively addresses key challenges in the ﬁeld, offering a robust solution for automated disease analysis under challenging real-world conditions.  \nKEYWORDS  \ngradient-guided, Mamba, multi-scale context aggregation, plant lesion segmentation, selective scanning, state space models  \nFrontiers in Plant Science 01 [frontiersin.org](frontiersin.org)  \n","cbCaiq774tSYKNhL","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiq774tSYKNhL","pdf",4684583,15,"English","# Introduction\n## Plant lesion segmentation challenges\n# Methods\n## GARDEN framework and MSCA module\n## Boundary-aware selective scanning with GGBP\n# Results\n## Performance on public plant disease datasets\n# Discussion\n## Boundary precision and scale robustness","[{\"question\":\"What problem does plant lesion segmentation solve?\",\"answer\":\"It labels disease regions in plant images at the pixel level, supporting early diagnosis, severity measurement, and targeted treatment in precision agriculture.\"},{\"question\":\"Why is the segmentation task challenging?\",\"answer\":\"Lesions vary greatly in scale and appearance, and their boundaries often have low contrast that blends into healthy tissue.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the key components of the GARDEN method?\",\"answer\":\"GARDEN combines Multi-Scale Context Aggregation (MSCA) for scale-consistent lesion priors with a boundary-aware selective scanning module guided by a Gradient-Guided Boundary Predictor (GGBP).\"}]","Gradient-guided boundary-aware selective scanning with multi-scale context aggregation for plant lesion segmentation | PDF",1790706350,38]
