An Algorithm of Cigarette Authentication Based on Morphological Processing and SVM

摘要

It is obvious that the characters are illegible and the printing is rough on the package of fake cigarettes compared to genuine ones. According to the differences of comparison, we can make a two-class classifier to conduct cigarette authentication. in this paper, we firstly both extract morphological features of fake and genuine cigarettes and then use them as training sample sets to train a two-class SVM classifier. This algorithm has been tested on five brands of cigarettes and it gives results with more than 95% accuracy.
