<![CDATA[Papaya (Carica papaya L) is consumed by many people because it is beneficial for health. Along with increasing consumption or enthusiasts of papaya, the quality of papaya needs to be considered. One of the determining factors of the quality of papaya is its physical characteristics, which can be seen from its color, shape, and texture. Papaya of good quality has a delicious and sweet taste. The sweet taste of papaya is certainly influenced by the sugar content contained in it. However, to determine the sugar content in papaya is only done by human assessment based on its physical characteristics, this assessment is often less accurate. With a system that can determine the sugar content in papaya, it will make it easier for farmers to sort papaya fruit. Therefore, in this study, it is proposed to classify the level of sugar content in papaya based on color features using an Artificial Neural Network. The proposed method consists of 5 stages, namely, image acquisition, preprocessing, segmentation with the Otsu method, morphological operations, and classification with artificial neural networks. The number of papaya datasets used is 300 images which are divided into 3 classes, low class, medium class, and tal class. Based on the results of the tests that have been carried out, an accuracy of 92.85% is obtained for the training data, and for the test data, an accuracy of 100% is obtained. These results indicate that the proposed method can classify the level of sugar content in papaya fruit accurately.]]>
