Abstract

The application of imaging technologies combined with state-of-the-art artificial intelligence techniques has provided important advances in the modern oilseed industry. Innovative tools have been designed to improve the characterization of different classes of seeds, and consequently, decision making has become more efficient. This study aimed to assess the potential of deep learning models based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) for monitoring the quality of crambe seeds using X-ray images. In the proposed approach, seeds with different physical and physiological attributes were used to create the models. The models achieved accuracies of 91, 95, and 82 % for discrimination of seeds based on the integrity of internal tissues, germination, and vigor, respectively. Therefore, our findings indicated that digital radiographic images are suitable to provide relevant information on the physical and physiological parameters of crambe seeds. Furthermore, the proposed methodology could be used to classify seeds quickly, non-destructively, and robustly. (AU)
