    Recent advances in hyperspectral imaging (HSI) have demonstrated its ability to detect defects in fruit that may not be visible in RGB images. HSIs can be considered 3D images containing two spatial dimensions and one spectral dimension. Therefore, the first question that arises is how to process this type of information, either using 2D or 3D models. In this study, HSI in the 550–900 nm spectral range was used to detect bruising in oranges. Sixty samples of Thompson oranges were subjected to a mechanical bruising process, and HSIs were taken at different time intervals: before bruising, and 8 and 16 h after bruising. The samples were then classified using two convolutional neural network (CNN) models, a shallow 7-layer network (CNN-7) and a deep 18-layer network (CNN-18). In addition, two different input processing approaches are used: using 2D information from each band, and using the full 3D data from each HSI. The 3D models were the most accurate, with 94% correct classification for 3D-CNN-18, compared to 90% for 3D-CNN-7, and less than 83% for the 2D models. Our study suggests that 3D HSI may be a more effective technique for detecting fruit bruising, allowing the development of a fast, accurate, and nondestructive method for fruit sorting.

    Estimation of nitrogen content in cucumber plant (Cucumis sativus L.) leaves using hyperspectral imaging data with neural network and partial least squares regressions

    In recent years, farmers have often mistakenly resorted to overuse of chemical fertilizers to increase crop yield. However, excessive consumption of fertilizers might lead to severe food poisoning. If nutritional deficiencies are detected early, it can help farmers to design better fertigation practices before the problem becomes unsolvable. The aim of this study is to predict the amount of nitrogen (N) content in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L., var. Super Arshiya-F1) plant leaves using hyperspectral imaging (HSI) techniques and three different regression methods: a hybrid artificial neural networks-particle swarm optimization (ANN-PSO); partial least squares regression (PLSR); and unidimensional deep learning convolutional neural networks (CNN). Cucumber plant seeds were planted in 20 different pots. After growing the plants, pots were categorized and three levels of nitrogen overdose were applied to each category: 30%, 60% and 90% excesses, called N30%, N60%, N90%, respectively. HSI images of plant leaves were captured before and after the application of nitrogen excess. A prediction regression model was developed for each individual category. Results showed that mean regression coefficients (R) for ANN-PSO were inside 0.937–0.965, PLSR 0.975–0.997, and CNN 0.965–0.985 ranges, test set. We conclude that regression models have a remarkable ability to accurately predict the amount of nitrogen content in cucumber plants from hyperspectral leaf images in a non-destructive way, being PLSR slightly ahead of CNN and ANN-PSO methods.
