Abstract

We present a system for a visual control of ready-made food based on image processing algorithms. Pictures are taken with a CCD camera and a frame-grabber at a rate of one per second. In the first processing level the relevant information is extracted via a recursive spht- and-merge algorithm. Prototypes are apphed to the obtained clusters to get probabihty values for each ingredient. In a final decision stage connected objects belonging to the same prototype are compared to get an optimal global classification. A teach-in-module allows an interactive generation of all parameters.
