    Image processing techniques to identify tomato quality under market conditions
    (Elsevier B.V., 2024-03) Abekoon, T; Sajindra, H; Jayakody, J．A．D．C．A．; Samarakoon, E．R．J; Rathnayake, U
    Tomatoes are essential in both agriculture and culinary spheres, demanding rigorous quality assessment. It is highly advantageous to discern the maturity level and the time range post-harvesting of tomatoes in the market through visual analysis of their images. This research endeavors to forecast tomato quality by accurately determining the maturity level and the duration post-harvest, specifically tailored to Sri Lankan market conditions, with a particular focus on Padma tomatoes. It identifies maturity stages (Green, Breakers, Turning, Pink, Light Red, Red) and post-harvest dates using image processing techniques. Greenhouse-grown Padma tomatoes mimic market conditions for image capture, and Convolutional Neural Networks facilitate this analysis. Model 1, using ReLU and sigmoid activation functions, accurately classifies tomatoes with 99 % training and validation accuracy. Model 2, with seven classes, achieves 99 % training and 98 % validation accuracy using ReLU and softmax activation functions. Integration of the IPGRI/IITA 1998 classification method enhances tomato categorization. Efficient tomato image screening optimizes resource use. This study successfully determines Padma tomato post-harvest dates based on maturity stages, a significant contribution to tomato quality assessment under market conditions.
