Abstract

Blue and chub mackerels are often caught at the same time, and their market prices are different. Thus, humans need to classify them by their hands. Therefore, the demand for automatic sorting machines of these mackerels using image processing technique is increasing. Classification for blue and chub mackerels is a challenging task due to their quite similar appearance. In this paper, we propose a method for classifying blue and chub mackerels by image processing technique. The difference of the two mackerels appears on the whole and the local specific parts. Therefore, we use global and local features that are extracted from the whole and the specific part in fish images, respectively. Experimental results showed that the proposed method is superior to the methods using only global or local feature.
