General note Cotton sustains the textile economies of 80+ countries with annual yield of 113 million<br/>bales, yet 30–60 % yield losses are still attributed to viral, bacterial and fungal diseases<br/>that remain undetected until manual field scouting. To address this critical issue, the<br/>use of Unmanned-aerial-vehicle (UAV) imagery combined with deep learning offers a<br/>scalable early-warning system, but existing models suffer from low early-stage<br/>accuracy, poor transferability and high computational cost. In this paper, we propose<br/>Cotton-Vision, a fully convolutional single-stage detector that synergizes three lightweight architectural innovations. The architectural changes include ghost bottleneck<br/>modules for 20 % parameter reduction, efficient channel-attention (ECA) for adaptive<br/>feature recalibration, and cross-stage partial (CSP) fusion for enriched gradient flow.<br/>The network is trained on local datasets of cotton collected from 7 different fields and<br/>comprised 2700+ drone images from local cotton farms in Punjab Province of Pakistan.<br/>Extensive augmentation (rotation, shear, exposure, saturation) yields 11704 training<br/>samples. On a held-out test set, Cotton-vision achieved a precision of 97.7%, a recall<br/>of 77.7%, a mAP@50 of 85.6%, and a mAP@50-95 of 76.6%. These results represent<br/>10-20% improvement in precision, recall and mAP over the leading models, including<br/>YOLOv5, YOLOv8, YOLOv11, YOLOv12, RT-DETR and RF-DTR. Through a<br/>comprehensive ablation study, we demonstrate that each of our proposed architectural<br/>enhancements contributes to the model's superior performance with 12%-16%<br/>improvement from the base model. Our findings confirm that this synergy of<br/>lightweight and attention-based modules provides a robust and computationally viable<br/>solution for early cotton disease detection.
