Color Identification on Heterogeneous Bean Landrace Seeds Using Gaussian Mixture Models in CIE L*a*b* Color Space
The classification of bean landraces based on their coloration is of particular interest, as the color of these plants is associated with the nutritional components present in their seeds. In this paper, the authors propose a procedure to identify the colors of heterogeneous color bean landraces bas...

description | The classification of bean landraces based on their coloration is of particular interest, as the color of these plants is associated with the nutritional components present in their seeds. In this paper, the authors propose a procedure to identify the colors of heterogeneous color bean landraces based on the information from their digital images. The proposed methodology employs a three-dimensional histogram representation of the estimated color, expressed in the CIE L*a*b* color space, with an unsupervised learning method called the Gaussian Mixture Model. This approach facilitates the acquisition of representative information for the colors of a bean landrace, represented as points in the CIE L*a*b* color space. Furthermore, the <i>K</i>-<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>n</mi><mi>n</mi></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> method can be trained with these punctual representations to identify colors, yielding satisfactory results on landraces with homogeneous and heterogeneous seeds. |
