The majority of studies focused on the disease identification process and implemented the convolutional neural network and support vector machine techniques. The prime limitations of the investigated studies are related to the focused area, investigated SCs, the small number of experimental datasets, and validation techniques. None of the studies provided complete evidence to determine an optimal ML technique for SC to build classification or predictive models. Therefore, further concern is required to develop and improve the developed solutions including other ML techniques, large datasets, and advanced evaluation processes.
