Abstract

Fruit grading is a vital step in the post harvesting stages of any fruit farming. It directly influences the benefits of fruit farmers. Computer vision based automatic methods provide the efficient and precise grading with respect to the appearance of fruits. This chapter deals with a machine learning based grading system for orange fruits. Weighted fruit features such as circularity, cross sectional diameter along with the statistical features are found under feature extraction step. Multi class Support Vector Machine (MSVM) is used to classify the fruits under the four categories. The proposed method results are compared with state of the art methods. The quantitative results show that, the proposed method yields 96.7% of accuracy which is greater than the other state-of-the-art methods. The results are encouraging to perform additional implementation to customize the proposed work in fruit packing industry.
