Cecid fly defect detection in mangoes using object detection frameworks.

This paper investigates the automated detection of a mango defect caused by cecid flies, which can affect a significant portion of the production yield. Object detection frameworks using CNN were used to localize and detect multiple defects present in a single mango image. This paper also proposes modified versions of R-CNN and FR-CNN replacing its region search algorithms with segmentation-based region extraction. A dataset consisting of 1329 cecid fly surface blemishes was used to train the object detection models. The results of the experiments show comparable performance between the modified and existing state-of-the-art object detection frameworks. Results show that Faster R-CNN achieved the highest average precision of 0.901 at aP50 while the Modified FR-CNN has the highest average precision of 0.723 at aP75.enNeural networks (Computer science)DefectorsImage processingImage processing--Digital techniquesImage analysis--Data processingImage processing--Computer programsArticle
