Abstract: Abstract: The classification of nuts is crucial for food security; nevertheless, accurate and swift identification continues to be a challenge in numerous areas due to insufficient infrastructure. The rise in smartphone utilization, along with advancements in computer vision driven by deep learning, has facilitated smartphone-assisted nut classification. We trained a deep convolutional neural network to categorize five distinct nut types (Chestnut, Hazelnut, Nut Forest, Nut Pecan, and Walnut) using a public dataset of 2,850 photos gathered under controlled conditions. The (...) model attained an accuracy of 98.37% on a reserved test set, illustrating the viability of this method. This approach offers a viable avenue for large-scale smartphone-assisted nut categorization. (shrink)
