Detection method of slight bruises of apples based on hyperspectral imaging and RELIEF-extreme learning machine by ZHANG Meng, LI Guanghui

“…The results showed that the recognition accuracy of ELM model for the test set based on the full wavebands was 94.44%, and the accuracy of the Re-ELM model based on the characteristic wavebands was 96.67%, and the accuracy of the Re-SVM and Re-K mean models for the characteristic wavebands were 92.22% and 91.67%, respectively, which demonstrated that the Re-ELM was a more effective method for the bruise apple classification. Subsequently, an apple damage detection algorithm based on the characteristic wavebands and image processing was proposed, which performed an independent component algorithm (ICA) transformation of the characteristic wavebands, and selected the third component image of the ICA transformation, and used adaptive threshold segmentation to obtain the bruise area on apples. …”
