Abstract
Each of the three feature sets, color, morphology, and texture were able to discriminate specific seeds with varying degrees of success. A neuro-fuzzy inference system was developed to classify asymptomatic, Cercospora spp., and Fusarium spp. The classification accuracy for asymptomatic seed was 91.6%, Cercospora spp. 68%, and Fusarium spp. 95%. A multimedia computer-based soybean visual information and grading system was developed. The research concluded that fungal-damaged soybean seeds can be characterized based on their images.
