Addressing this issue necessitates the development of predictive models for the efficient representation of Internet of Things (IoT) data. In this context, a graded precision forecasting model for Tobacco weather fleck has been developed. Additionally, a graded recognition model has been constructed to identify different levels of disease severity based on the aforementioned grading system. We utilized meteorological data collected from field Internet of Things (IoT) devices and employed the Generalized Additive Model (GAM) to identify factors significantly associated with the occurrence of this disease. The proposed composite model, which leverages the search capability of the Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) and the feature extraction advantage of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), optimized the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) model (GWO-CNN-LSTM) for the best grading prediction effect of tobacco climate spot disease (accuracy rate of 85.46%). The GoogleNet model, optimized with the Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) and based on the Inception-ResNet-v2, achieved the highest accuracy rate for disease grading recognition (92.40%), which was significantly higher than the manual recognition accuracy rate (83.00%; P < 0.05). The experimental results demonstrate the precise prediction and identification of varying degrees of tobacco climate spot disease occurrence. The proposed model makes a positive contribution to the knowledge system of crop disease grading prediction and the advancement of Internet of Things (IoT) agriculture.
