This Tomato Maturity Estimator is developed to conduct tomato color grading using machine vision to replace human labor. Existing machine has not been widely applied in Malaysia since the cost is too expensive. The major problem in tomato color grading by human vision was due to the subjectivity of human vision and error prone by visual stress and tiredness. Therefore, this system is carried out to judge the tomato maturity based on their color and to estimate the expiry date of tomato by their color. Evolutionary methodology was implemented in this system design by using several imageprocessing techniques including image acquisition, image enhancement and feature extraction. Fifty sample data of tomatoes were collected during image acquisition phase in the format of RGB color image. The quality of the collected images were being improved in the image enhancement phase;mainly converting to color space format (L*a*b*), filtering and threshold process. In the feature extraction phase, value of red-green is being extracted. The values are then being used as information for determining the percentage of tomato maturity and to estimate expiry date of tomato. According to the testing results, this system has met its objectives whereby 90.00% of the tomato tested has not rotten yet. This indicates that the judgment of tomato maturity and the estimation of tomato's expiry date were accurate in this project.

Early detection of Parkinson's disease (PD) is very crucial for effective management and treatment of the disease. Dopaminergic images such as Single Photon Emission Tomography (SPECT) using I-123-Ioflupane can substantially detect PD at an early stage. However, till today, these images are mostly interpreted by humans which can manifest interobserver variability and inconsistency. To improve the imaging diagnosis of PD, we propose a model in this paper, for early detection of PD using imageprocessing and artificial neural network (ANN). The model used 200 SPECT images, 100 of healthy normal and 100 of PD, obtained from Parkinson's Progression Marker's Initiative (PPMI) database and processed them to find the area of caudate and putamen which is the region of interest (ROI) for this study. The area values of ROI were then fed to the ANN which is hypothesized to mimic the pattern recognition of a human observer. The simple but fast ANN built, could classify subjects with and without PD with an accuracy of 94%, sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 88% Hence it can be inferred that the proposed system has the potential to be an effective way to aid the clinicians in the accurate diagnosis of PD.

The field of computervision is devoted to discovering algorithms, data representations andcomputer architectures that embody the principles underlying visual capabilities. computervision is an interdisciplinary field that deals with how computers can be made for gaining high level understanding from digital images or videos. While very promising result has been shown on face recognition related problems, age invariant face recognition still relics a challenge. Facial appearance of a human varies over time, which results in substantial intra-class variations. In order to address this problem, we propose Frangi2D method for normalization, Linear Binary pattern (LBP) for feature extraction and Sparse Representation Classifier (SRC). Extensive results on a well-known public domain face aging dataset: MORPH. The experimental results show the superiority of our proposed method in age invariant face recognition.

In Agriculture, leaf diseases have grown to be a dilemma as it can cause significant diminution in both quality and quantity of agricultural yields. Thus, automated recognition of diseases on leaves plays a crucial role in agriculture sector. This paper imparts a simple and computationally proficient method used for leaf disease identification and grading using digital imageprocessing and machine vision technology. The proposed system is divided into two phases, in first phase the plant is recognized on the basis of the features of leaf, it includes pre-processing of leaf images, and feature extraction followed by Artificial Neural Network based training and classification for recognition of leaf. In second phase the disease present in the leaf is classified, this process includes K-Means based segmentation of defected area, feature extraction of defected portion and the ANN based classification of disease. Then the disease grading is done on the basis of the amount of disease present in the leaf.

This paper is devoted to traffic sign recognition problem in real time. The recognition process consists of three steps. The first step is a search of image parts which probably contain a traffic sign. The second step is about parts extraction and simple classification by shape. The last step consists of classification of extracted parts with previously learned multilayered neural net. The results of experimental setup based on real data show feasibility of the proposed methods.
