“…The defective area calculation algorithm (DACA) demonstrated efficiency, with a 0.00612-s advantage over MATLAB's bwarea function in determining the defective area percentage. 13 In a recent study, apples were graded based on characteristics from photographs, including shape, size, and color, across seven varieties and diverse samples from Karnataka, India. Naive Bayes, Random Forest, and MLP classifiers processed images, extracting spatial-and frequency-based data.…”

Apple sorting is a crucial step for their grading and determination of their commercial value. Sorting techniques are employed at several stages of production process, including harvest, storage, and packing. Manually apples are sorted and graded according to size and color, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and error-prone. Therefore, investigating nondestructive, precise, and effective methods of apple sorting is necessary to surmount the drawbacks connected with this. Technology advancements have led to the invention of several automated sorting techniques based on digital image processing, spectral and optical properties that are rapid and efficient compared to manual sorting. These technologies have advanced significantly for assessing the physical and nutritional quality of apples along with internal defects. In the present review, an overview of these advanced apple sorting methods is provided in detail. The contemporary techniques have improved apple sorting accuracy and efficiency while reducing labor costs and improving the quality. Computer vision systems can achieve high levels of accuracy and consistency by enabling nondestructive and quick assessment of many quality metrics, decreasing the subjectivity involved with human sorting. Spectral analysis and hyperspectral imaging have potential for determining interior characteristics like sugar content and ripeness. Robotics, machine learning, and sensor technologies can improve the efficiency, precision, and adaptability of sorting systems by learning from prior sorting data and adjusting to fresh variations in apple quality. In addition, sorting methods combining different techniques need to be developed to detect internal and external quality of apples.

Fruit diseases became one of the serious problems that the farmer faced because it could threaten their economic outcome. The main focus of this study is apples. Apple fruit is very susceptible to disease, in general diseases that usually attack the apple are blotch apple, rot apple, and scab apple. In this study, the author is classifying these three apple diseases and normal apples. Classification is a process that we can do manually by human power, which costs a lot of fortune, takes a long time, and it's also very vulnerable to false identification. This study takes advantage of computer vision technology and machine learning to overcome the classification problem. By using the SVM method and parameter FA optimization algorithm, we can get the highest result only in the first experiment and also with 94% accuracy.
