Soybean Seed Coat and Cotyledon Crack Detection by Image Processing

چکیده

A computer vision system was used to evaluate seed coat and cotyledon cracks in soybeans. White light in the front-lighting mode with a black background for the soybeans was the best condition for acquiring video images of soybeans suitable for subsequent processing. Image processing algorithms were developed using the software supplied with the vision system computer. Crack detection was most successful when seeds were positioned carefully such that the cracked region of the soybean was viewed directly by the camera of the vision system. Using the algorithms developed, 96% of the soybeans with seed coat cracks and 100% of the soybeans with cotyledon cracks were correctly detected from the samples tested.

Suppressive mechanism of seed coat pigmentation in yellow soybean

In soybean seeds, numerous variations in colors and pigmentation patterns exist, most of which are observed in the seed coat. Patterns of seed coat pigmentation are determined by four alleles (I, i(i), i(k) and i) of the classically defined I locus, which controls the spatial distribution of anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins in the seed coat. Most commercial soybean cultivars produce yellow se...

Processing Digital Image for Measurement of Crack Dimensions in Concrete

The elements of the concrete structure are most frequently affected by cracking. Crack detection is essential to ensure safety and performance during its service life. Cracks do not have a regular shape, in order to achieve the exact dimensions of the crack; the general mathematical formulae are by no means applicable. The authors have proposed a new method which aims to measure the crack dimen...

Organ-Specific Differential NMR-Based Metabonomic Analysis of Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] Fruit Reveals the Metabolic Shifts and Potential Protection Mechanisms Involved in Field Mold Infection

Prolonged, continuous rainfall is the main climatic characteristic of autumn in Southwest China, and it has been found to cause mildew outbreaks in pre-harvest soybean fields. Low temperature and humidity (LTH) stress during soybean maturation in the field promotes pre-harvest mildew, resulting in damage to different organs of soybean fruits to different extents, but relatively little informati...
