Abstract


The extraction of features and textures holds a crucial significance in the realm of image processing and machine vision systems. Even though artificial intelligence (AI) techniques are superior in attaining the best results in image processing, several challenges remain open for further research in computation complexity, memory, and power requirements. In this context, robust preprocessing techniques are required to address such shortcomings and reduce the computational cost of predictive tasks. This paper employed two feature extraction levels to extract the best possible features from images of the cinnamon plant. Local directional positional pattern (LDPP) extracts global image features, while local triangular coded pattern (LTCP) extracts local features. It helps to provide detailed and more relevant information about the image texture. Once features are extracted, identifying and categorizing diverse textures within an image relies on recognizing their unique features. Typically, descriptors serve as the means for representing images in our work. Afterwards, we used ensemble learning to attain better classification results with the help of weak classifiers. Extracted features are provided to machine learning (ML) models like support vector machines (SVM), random forest (RF), and k-nearest neighbors (KNN) for better classification of the cinnamon category.
