In our life food is necessary for nourishment and First, we have capture an image from camera and locate the position of grain in the picture. In

ties present in the food such as stones, damaged we have to done binarazition. Grain feature extraction is the process of extracting Grain component
seeds, broken granules which affects the compo- features like colour, shape, size etc. from the image of Grain. Grain feature extraction is very much
sition and the quality of food. In this project, important for the initialization of processing techniques.
we have proposed a system that determines the
quality of food. Images of grains are captured
by the camera and image processing algorithm
is applied on the grain samples through MAT-
LAB. The classification has been done according
to colour, shape and size. It results good, bad
and medium quality by using Neural Network
(NN) classifer.

Objectives
In this project , we have developed a system
which will differentiate the grain on basis of good
and bad quality.for this we have used three pa-
rameter such as shape,size and colour.first, we
have taken some images of grain and store it
in the database and trained the images stored
in database.Now,we capture the live image and
compare it with our trained database.On the ba-
sis of this we get the desired result.

2. The analysis is based on color, shape and

size. The database of hundred images are
trained for classification. The classifica-
tion has been done with the help of ANN
