Abstract

The invention discloses a potato defect detecting method. According to the potato defect detecting method, a thermal imaging technology is used for rapidly recognizing peeled potatoes which are damaged, rot and sprout, and the thermal image processing processes of a computer are as follows: carrying out median filtering or average filtering and noise reduction on thermal images, extracting the regions of the potato thermal images by adopting a threshold value segmentation method, calculating the average temperature values of pixels in the regions, then calculating the difference value between the temperature value of each pixel in the regions and the average temperature value, and calculating the areas S of real objects to which the pixels with the absolute values of the difference values being greater than 1 DEG C, if S is greater than 25mm<2>, the potatoes are defective. The potato defect detecting method disclosed by the invention has high efficiency and good recognition accuracy and can be popularized and applied to the field of potato defect detection.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for quickly identifying potato quality, in particular to a method for quickly identifying defective potatoes by using a thermal imaging method, and belongs to the field of non-destructive testing. Background technique [0002] Potatoes are one of the four major food crops in today's human society, second only to rice, corn and wheat. Potatoes contain a lot of starch, which can provide rich nutritional energy for eaters. With the rapid development of the food industry, the ways of eating potatoes are becoming more and more diverse, and the demand for mashed potatoes and potato cakes based on whole potato powder is increasing. [0003] Potato powder has the advantages of steamed fresh potato flavor, less nutritional loss, good quality stability, convenient processing and easy forming, so it is widely used in compound French fries / chips, instant mashed potatoes, fast food (or quick-frozen), Puffed and baby food, etc., a...
