Segmentation of Mango Fruit Image Using Fuzzy C-Means

Mango contains about 20 vitamins and minerals such as iron, copper, potassium, phosphorus, zinc, and calcium. The freshness of the ripe mango will taste sweet. The level of ripeness of the mango fruit can be seen from the texture of the skin and skin color. Ripe mangoes have a bright, fragrant color and a smooth skin texture. The problem found in mango segmentation is that the image of the mango fruit is influenced by several factors, such as noise and environmental objects. In measuring the maturity of mangoes traditionally, it can be seen from image analysis based on skin color. The mango peel segmentation process is needed so that the classification or pattern recognition process can be carried out better. The segmented mango image will read the feature extraction value of an object that has been separated from the background. The procedure on the image that has been analyzed will analyze the pattern recognition process. In this process, the segmented image is divided into several parts according to the desired object acquisition. Clustering is a technique for segmenting images by grouping data according to class and partitioning the data into mango datasets. This study uses the Fuzzy C Means method to produce optimal results in determining the clustering-based image segmentation. The final result of Fuzzy C-based mango segmentation processing means that the available feature extraction value or equal to the maximum number of iterations (MaxIter) is 31 iterations, error (x) = 0.1, and the image computation testing time is 2444.913636
