A computerized digital imaging technique to estimate palm oil quality based on fruit colour.

Typically palm oil quality is determined in a destructive manner using wet chemical analysis. Such an analysis can be costly, time consuming and error prone. Deterioration of Bleachability Index (DOBI) iS a key Indicator of palm oil quality. An alternative evaluation procedure that combines consis...
