Instrumental Colour and Size Grading of Pulse Grains
2002
Scientists at the Canadian Grain Commission have developed a machine vision
system for grading pulse grains. This system utilizes a flatbed scanner and an image
analysis based software developed at the Canadian Grain Commission. Features
extracted from an image of a bulk sample are used for colour and size assessments.
A neural network is developed to make a colour assessment while morphological
image processing techniques are used for seed size measurements from the image.
The machine-assessed colour matches the human inspectors more than 95%. The
size measurements from the bulk image are also highly accurate (within 0.2 mm of the
actual size).
