Post-harvest fruit grading is a necessary step to avoid disease related loss in quality. This relevant the context of Champagne industry where grapes can not be manipulated by machines crushing. Our team have been developing computer vision based solution automate this process. In paper, our main contribution usage PSPnet segmentation model for real-time visible symptoms detection with IoU scor...

Harvest and post-harvest operations constitute principal constraints to rice production, especially in irrigated systems, because of the larger yield that has to be handled. Post-harvest crop losses of up to 35% have been reported and attributed to inefficiency of manual threshing of rice by small-scale farmers. This leads to poor grain quality and rejection of locally produced rice. The Africa...
