Abstract:

Sorting of red chilli pepper manually makes the result unobjective and inconsistent. By using digital image processing and Artificial Neural Network (ANN), we can minimize the subjectivity and inconsistency. The aim of this research was to design ANN architecture for sorting and grading red chilli pepper based on image analyses. Red chilli pepper cv. Helix image was processed using digital image processing and classified using ANN. Images from the two sides of a red chilli that were 20 samples taken in a closed box equipped with a smartphone. The images of red chillies were processed by using MATLAB application that was used to transform RGB image to obtain mark of colour features and texture features. Subsequently, colour and texture feature were chosen to get variables for composing ANN. It was discovered that red, energy, and correlation are variables to compose ANN. This ANN had 3 input cells, 22 hidden layers cells, and 5 output cells and could classify 20 samples of red chilli peppers with 84.46% level of accuracy.
