Abstract

Miyazaki Prefecture is blessed with a rich natural environment, where many mushrooms have grown wild since ancient times, and the production of dried shiitake mushrooms ranks second in Japan after Oita Prefecture. Our partner, Sugimoto Co., Ltd., is a long-established company founded in 1970, and sometimes it is necessary to sort over 1 ton. Sorting is still done manually, making it very difficult for employees to sort. The purpose of this study is to determine the quality of shiitake mushrooms using deep learning and video image processing.
