Abstract

The agricultural industries are one of the cost demanding fields placing a requirement on skilled laborers for harvesting. To meet the demands, robots are employed to harvest which mandates the need for accurate fruit detection system. The robot has to scan the image and recognize the fruit, which is the crucial process as the recognition system faces unprecedented challenges like occlusion, deformation, illumination conditions. The objective of this work is to build an accurate and reliable fruit recognition system by addressing these challenges in image recognition. Convolutional neural network, a deep learning algorithm is used to identify the features of an image and classify the image in the fruit recognition system. The system is evaluated with Fruit-360 dataset consisting of 43329 images of 60 different categories. With the aid of the proposed system, quantifiable improvement of about 97% accuracy is achieved and the total loss of the system is about 0.13.
