ABSTRACT: Fine-flavor cacao is one of the cacao varieties with superior characters, especially the flavor quality. In this research, we develop a rapid and non-destructive method to evaluate cacao seed. Normally, it takes several years to identify whether a cacao seed is among the fine-flavor or bulk varieties. However, since it was known that the colors of the leaves can distinguish fine-flavor cacao from bulk cacao, the image classification method can serve as an alternative means of rapid identification. Furthermore, an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is applied to provide an intelligence agent that can automatically learn and identify cacao seed as fine-flavor or bulk. The ANFIS is used because designing a robust non-linear mathematical classification model on color image data is not an easy task. Therefore, the soft computing approach is used to resolve the difficulties. Other soft computing classification methods, i.e. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Fuzzy Multilayer Perceptron (Fuzzy-MLP), are also applied in order to evaluate the performance of ANFIS. Our experiment demonstrate that ANFIS model is more robust than the other two methods and could classify the cacao leaves at accuracy rate up to 94% for in-sample and 84% for-out sample prediction.KEYWORDS: Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS); cacao; image classification; non-linear classificationRead full text (pdf)
