Fruit Quality Detection using Deep Learning for Rotten and
Fresh Fruits Classification
IEEE BASE PAPER TITLE:
Enhanced CNN for Fruit Disease Detection and Grading
Classification Using SSDAE-SVM for Postharvest Fruits
IEEE BASE PAPER ABSTRACT:
In the realm of agriculture, leveraging image processing has become pivotal for
robust image analysis, especially in detecting fruit diseases. However, existing
techniques in this domain often limit inputs to fixed sizes without reshaping
images before neural network (NN) input, complicating disease detection and
compromising image resolution, thereby escalating postharvest losses. To address
this, an innovative approach has been developed a unique enhanced convolutional
NN (CNN) employing spatial pyramid pooling (SPP) and adaptive momentum BP
that integrates the best finite impulse response (FIR) filter for preprocessing. This
method aims to reorganize the fruit detection process while maintaining high
image resolution. The CNN, with its SPP, utilizes convolutional layers to extract
diverse features encompassing color, shape, texture, and surface attributes crucial
for accurate disease detection. Furthermore, efficient fruit grading is essential to
combat issues such as poor product quality, slow grading speeds, and accuracy
concerns, all contributing to postharvest losses. In response, a novel integrated
stacked sparse denoising autoencoder–support vector machine (SSDAE-SVM)
approach, coupled with dropout mechanisms, has been proposed to streamline fruit

mitigates overfitting and information loss during feature extraction, while the SVM
classifier, serving as the output layer, ensures accurate fruit grading, thereby
curbing postharvest losses. Consequently, this proposed method not only simplifies
disease detection and grading processes but also enhances quality, accuracy,
reliability, and speed. The model’s performance surpasses previous disease
prediction models, exhibiting an impressive accuracy of 97.25%, a minimal
prediction error of 0.15, a high specificity of 95.62%, an F1-score of 98.81%, and a
remarkable recall rate of 98.98%.
OUR PROPOSED ABSTRACT:
Fruit quality assessment is a critical aspect of agricultural and food industries to
ensure consumer satisfaction and reduce wastage. This project, Fruit Quality
Detection using Deep Learning for Rotten and Fresh Fruits Classification, presents
a web-based system that classifies fruits into three quality categories: Good
Quality, Bad Quality, and Mixed Quality, across six fruit types: Apple, Banana,
Guava, Lime, Orange, and Pomegranate.
The system is developed using Python for backend processing, with HTML, CSS,
and JavaScript for the frontend interface, and Flask as the web framework. Two
state-of-the-art deep learning models, InceptionResNetV2 and MobileNetV2, are
employed to classify the images. The InceptionResNetV2 model achieved a
training accuracy of 94.00% and a validation accuracy of 94.00%. In contrast,
MobileNetV2 achieved superior performance with a training accuracy of 97.00%
and a validation accuracy of 98.00%.
The dataset comprises 19,526 high-quality images, divided into three sub-
categories: Good Quality (11,664 images), Bad Quality (6,788 images), and Mixed

[email protected] Quality (1,074 images). Each sub-category contains images of the six fruit types in
a processed format.
The system demonstrates efficient and accurate classification, providing a robust
tool for automated fruit quality detection, applicable in supply chain management
and quality control in agriculture and retail sectors.
