Application of Images Segmentation for Evaluation Structure of White Brined Cheese

摘要

This paper presents an application of images segmentation in HSI (Hue, Saturation, Intensity) color space for evaluation of one sensory characteristic of white brined cheese quality- cheese structure. It is developed a Java application for multi-level images segmentation and the results are compared with experts’ evaluation of cheese structure. A correlation analysis shows that a combination of two colors in segmented image with four colors, could be used for structure evaluation of white brined cheese.
