Task II: Research Paper on Artificial Intelligence based
Yield Phenotyping Framework: Fruit Classification and
Grading using Deep Neural Network
Problem Statement
“AI based yield phenotyping framework to establish a real-time, non-destructive
system that automates fruit segmentation, classification and grading system
using Deep Neural Network”
How can a robust Machine Learning model be developed for fruit classification and
grading, addressing challenges related to the homogeneity in color, shape, and size of
fruit species?
The goal is to automate the fruit processing system, eliminating manual sorting through
the implementation of state-of-the-art technologies like Computer Vision and Deep
Learning.
Also making a physical prototype for the Machine Learning Model

Task III: Data Pre-processing on WBSEDCL Dataset
Problem Statement
“Meter display segmentation and reading the digits using OCR”
Packages required:
1. OS import os
2. OpenCV v3.4.3 import cv2
3. NumPy v1.16 import numpy as np
4. PIL from PIL import Image
Original Meter Image
After background removal using
OCR
Task III: Data Pre-processing on WBSEDCL Dataset
Following step has been used to extract the meter display:
1.Read the image
2.Convert the image from RGB to HSV color space
3.Create a mask of the image where the color which falls in a particular range
4.Find the largest contour in the mask image as the display will be the largest contour
5.Create bounding box over the largest contour
6.Extract the bounding box portion from the original image
7.Use adaptive thresholding on the extracted meter display to get a binary image with less
amount of noise
Further Processing required:
8.Skew Correction of the extracted image
9.Read the digits using OCR to get the meter reading
Task IV: Dataset
