Models of background are firstly set up and adaptively updated in Hue Saturation Intensity (HSI) color space to detect motion regions. Then, detection errors are dealt with by motion continuity and velocity consistency. Finally, cast shadows are removed by the generic properties of luminance, chrominance and gradient density. Experimental results and their evaluation are presented to verify the effectiveness of this new method.展开更多

The present study was an attempt for automatic defect detection and sorting of some single-color fruits such as banana and plum. Fruit images were captured using a color digital camera with capturing direction of zero degree and under illuminant D65. It was observed that growing decay and time-aging made surface color changes in bruised parts of the object. 3D RGB and HSV color vectors as well as a single channel like H （hue）, S （saturation）, V （value） and grey scale images were applied for color quantization of the object. Results showed that there was a distinct threshold in the histogram of the S channel of images which can be applied to separate the object from its background. Moreover, the color change via the defect and time-aging is correctly distinguishable in the hue channel image. The effect of illumination, gloss and shadow of 3D image processing is less noticeable for hue data in comparison to saturation and value. The value of H channel was quantized to five groups based on the difference between each pixel value and the H value of a healthy object. The percentage of different degree of defects can be computed and used for grading the fruits.展开更多
