Predicting Fruit Quality with a Hybrid Machine Learning and Image Processing Approach
Fruit spoilage is a significant issue in agriculture, leading to substantial economic losses. Addressing this, our study introduces a hybrid approach combining image processing and deep learning to assess fruit freshness. We developed an image processing algorithm that quantifies spoilage on a scale from 0 (fully fresh) to 100 (fully rotten). Alongside, we trained a convolutional neural network (CNN) to perform binary classification (fresh or rotten) using a large dataset of fruit images. The outcomes of both methods were synthesized using logistic regression to enhance the accuracy of freshness predictions. Subsequently, this logistic regression model was utilized to enable the image pro...
