Apple Color Discrimination with Color Computer Vision and Human Vision

컬러 컴퓨터 시각과 육안에 의한 사과 색깔 식별

This study was carried out to analyze the characteristics of the color computer vision to discriminate apple surface color for grading apples by their color. It was intended to develop the techniques to be able to discriminate apple color as precisely as human inspection does. For the purpose, discrimination of apple color by human inspection was checked and justified ; various illumination methods for various frames of the color computer vision(R, G, B, H, S and I frames) were tested ; and several methods to analyze image informations of the color computer vision were tried to evaluate their ability to discriminate apple color close to the human inspection.
