Abstract

Image processing and machine learning technique are modified to use the quality grading of soybean seeds. Due to quality grading is a very important process for the soybean industry and soybean farmers. There are still some critical problems that need to be overcome. Therefore, the key contributions of this paper are first, a method to eliminate shadow noise for segment soybean seeds of high quality. Second, a novel approach for color feature which robust for illumination changes to reduces problem of color difference. Third, an approach to discover a set of feature and to form classifier model to strengthen the discrimination power for soybean classification. This study used background subtraction to reduce shadow appearing in the captured image and proposed a method to extract color feature based on robustness for illumination changes which was H components in HSI model. We proposed classifier model using combination of the color histogram of H components in HSI model and GLCM statistics to represent the color and texture features to strengthen the discrimination power of soybean grading and to solve shape variance in each soybean seeds class. SVM classifiers are generated to identify normal seeds, purple seeds, green seeds, wrinkled seeds, and other seed types. We conducted experiments on a dataset composed of 1,320 soybean seeds and 6,600 seed images with varies in brightness levels. The experimental results achieved accuracies of 99.2%, 97.9%, 100%, 100%, 98.1%, and 100% for overall seeds, normal seeds, purple seeds, green seeds, wrinkled seeds, and other seeds, respectively

Abstract

Lime is a commercially important fruit in Thailand whose sale price depends on the fruit’s size; hence, farmers must grade limes by size before distribution. However, as lime grading machines are very expensive and each province has different size grading limits, grading is often performed manually, which is time-consuming and error-prone. Agricultural production systems for automatic selection and grading use image processing techniques for extracting key features. Therefore, this study proposes techniques to extract features of limes and to develop analytical methods for grading them. This method can reduce time and cost, and increase accuracy and flexibility for selecting different lime sizes according to each province’s size criteria. To verify our method, we classified limes according to criteria from four Thailand provinces as sample data in an experiment. The focal image feature was the radius or diameter of the lime and the grading conditions were defined by the maximum comparison ratio of the fruit’s radius in pixels to the measured radius of the actual lime in centimeters. The average grading accuracy was 99.59%, which outperformed that of mechanical grading. The processing time was 1.70 seconds per individual fruit.
