The Color, Size and Edge-Based Method for Differentiating Turmeric Rhizomes

Ramachandra .

Abstract


The identification method that is based on Digital Image Processing (DIP) reduces the need for manual inspection while simultaneously providing greater accuracy and quick processing. Image processing techniques are used to identify turmeric rhizomes based on important morphological features extracted from images. Various kinds of turmeric show assorted physical and morphological properties. This paper describes a method for identifying and classifying turmeric rhizomes based on their color, shape, and size. A small number of species, including Nizamabad, Salem, Erode, and Rajapuri, were used in the experimental analysis. The proposed method uses an easy-to-use and effective method of identifying the species based on external features.
