Leaf Segmentation

Lightweight YOLOv8 Nano model for precision agriculture — 3.1M parameters, 78ms latency on Snapdragon 855, deployed for drone-based field analysis.

ARCHITECTURE

System Design

Leaf Segmentation is built as a modular system — each component has a clear responsibility, communicates through defined interfaces, and can evolve independently.

HOW IT WORKS

The thinking behind the system

Every architectural choice was made with intention. Below are the key decisions that shaped how this system works — what was chosen, what was rejected, and why.

Coming in V2

Design rationale coming soon

Detailed explanations of architectural choices will be published as the system stabilizes.

EVOLUTION

How this system grew

Building Leaf Segmentation taught me lessons that shape how I approach every subsequent system.

Architecture decisions compound

The choices made in the first weeks determine a project's trajectory for years.

Interfaces matter more than implementations

Well-defined interfaces enable independent evolution, testing, and replacement.

Document decisions as you make them

Writing rationale in real-time captures context lost within weeks.
