| Résumé | This paper presents a new two-step system for automatically sorting date fruit in four categories which are big `Sukkari' dates, defective big `Sukkari' dates, small `Sukkari' dates and `Khalas' dates. In the first step, we used the Principal Component Analysis tool for feature extraction and data dimensionality reduction. Then, the obtained features were injected in a modified Back-Propagation-based Neural Network to be classified. Four tests were made upon a locally made database of date images, and obtained results varied between 96 and 100% accuracy. |
