Apple quality identification and classification by image processing based on convolutional neural networks

Abstract This work researched apple quality identification and classification from real images containing complicated disturbance information (background was similar to the surface of the apples). This paper proposed a novel model based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) which aimed at accurate...
