Computer vision based orange grading using SVM

Fruit grading is very important for promoting its additional value. We graded oranges based on its images. Four photos were taken from different view angles for each orange. Both RGB and HSI color model were utilized. We extracted a 28-dimensional feature which can describe the size and color of them. Then support vector machine was used to grade these oranges into four levels. Experimental result shows SVM has promising performance for orange grading.
