Sumario: | Currently, most agricultural products in developing countries are exported to many countries around the world. Therefore, the classification of these products according to different standards is necessary. In Vietnam, dragon fruit is considered as the fruit with the highest export rate. Currently, the classification of dragon fruit is carried manually, lead to low-quality classification high labor costs. Therefore, this study describes an automatic dragon fruit classifying system using non-destructive measurements, based on a convolutional neural network (CNN). This classifying system uses a combination of a model of machine learning and image processing using a convolutional neural network to identify the external features of dragon fruits; the fruits are then classified and evaluated by groups. The dragon fruit is recognized by the system, which extracts the objects combined with the signal obtained from the loadcell to calculate and determine dragon fruit in each group. The training data are collected from the dragon fruit processing system, with a dataset of images obtained from more than 1287 dragon fruits, to train the model. In this system, the classification of the processing speed and accuracy are the two most important factors. The results show that the classification system achieves high efficiency. The system is effective with existing dragon fruit types. In Vietnamese factories, the processing speed of the system increases the sorting capacity of export packing facilities to six times higher than that of the manual method, with an accuracy of more than 96%. |
