Recognition of Object Hardness from Images Using a Capsule Network

Published: 29 May 2019 Publication History

Abstract

Hardness is often used as an index to compare similar objects. To measure an object's hardness, a hardness meter is required and certain conditions must be met. The object and the hardness meter corresponding to that object have to be close at hand. This research proposes a method to measure hardness from the object's image. The method employs machine learning using the capsule network of a neural network model.
