Indian PerspectiveIndian Perspective Value addition to fruits and vegetables only 2% and to
food grain 7% Export market share <1.5% mainly of primary
processed goods with low price realization Indian produce have unique aroma, flavour, taste,
nutritional properties and health benefits, such as Jamun, Bel fruit, Aonla, Pomegranate, Custard Apple etc.
Increase in export potential of Indian processed foods and to meet aspirations of growing middle class highest quality and food safety issues need modernization
Emerging Post Harvest Technologies need to be adopted for indigenous commodities involving proper engineering principles……

Use of Artificial Intelligence in the Use of Artificial Intelligence in the Context of Food ProcessingContext of Food Processing
• In artificial intelligence the tolerance for imprecision and uncertainty is exploited to achieve tractability, lower cost, high Machine Intelligence Quotient (MIQ) and economy of communication
• Artificial intelligence makes use of multivalued or fuzzy logic
• Artificial intelligence can deal with ambiguous and noisy data
• Artificial intelligence can yield approximate answers but good enough to solve the practical problems of trade
Artificial IntelligenceArtificial Intelligence•Artificial intelligence can be used to model and analyse very complex problems where conventional methods have not been able to produce cost-effective, analytical, or complete solutions. •In agricultural and biological engineering, researchers and engineers have developed methods to analyse the operation of food processing.
•Fuzzy Logic (FL), •Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), •Genetic Algorithms (Gas), •Bayesian Inference (BI), •Decision Tree (DT), and •Support Vector Machines (SVMs)
Complex Food Process ControlComplex Food Process Control• A single sensory property like color or texture can be linked individually to
several dimensions recorded by the human brain.• The food industry works with non-uniform, variable raw materials that, when
processed, should shaped into a product that satisfies a fixed standard.• The process control of foods are highly non-linear and variables are coupled.• In addition to the temperature changes during a heating or cooling process,
there are biochemical (nutrient, color, flavor, etc.) or microbial changes that should be considered.
• The moisture in food is constantly fluctuating either loss or gain throughout the process which can affect the flavor, texture, nutrients concentration and other properties.
• Other properties of foods such as density, thermal and electrical conductivity, specific heat, viscosity, permeability, and effective moisture diffusivity are often a function of composition, temperature, and moisture content, and therefore keep changing during the process.
• The system is also quite non-homogeneous and hence detailed input data are not available.
• Often, irregular shapes are present.
ANN for Crispness of Snack FoodsANN for Crispness of Snack Foods
• The crispness was evaluated by acoustic testing.
• The acoustic patterns were generated by crushing the snack samples with a pair of pincers
• The inputs for training the NNs comprised 102 amplitudes of sound signals in 0–7 kHz frequency range at the intervals of about 69 Hz with crispness grades as outputs
• Probabilistic (PNN) models showed good performance in classifying the snack foods into four grades of crispness.
• The prediction accuracy of models ranged approximately from 96 to 98%

Detection of Spongy Tissue in MangoDetection of Spongy Tissue in Mango• "spongy tissue", affects about
30% of ‘Alphonso’ mangoes• Fruits show no external
symptoms at harvest or on ripening but cutting reveals internal damage which adversely affects fruit quality. Both fully grown green, unripe mangoes and ripe fruits show spongy tissue.
• A non-destructive x-ray inspection can detect affected mangoes.
• The method could be used for quality control for on-line detection and separation

ANN in image recognition and ANN in image recognition and classification of crop and weedsclassification of crop and weeds
• The images were taken, Colour index values were assigned to the pixels of the indexed image and used as ANN inputs.
• There were 80 images, 100x100 pixels, for training, and 20 images for testing. Many back propagation ANN models were developed with different numbers of PEs in their hidden and various output layers.
• Six different evaluation schemes for two ANN output strategies were used.
• The performance of the ANNs was compared and the success rate for the identification of corn was observed to be as high as 80 to 100%, while the success rate for weed classification was as high as 60 to 80%.
• The results indicated the potential of ANNs for fast image recognition and classification.
• Fast image recognition and classification can be useful in the control of real-world, site-specific herbicide application.
Identification of citrus disease using Identification of citrus disease using color texture and discriminant analysiscolor texture and discriminant analysis• Color co-occurrence method (CCM) with texture based hue, saturation,
and intensity (HSI) color features in conjunction with statistical classification algorithms were used to identify diseased and normal citrus leaves under laboratory conditions.
• The leaf sample discriminant analysis using CCM textural features achieved classification accuracies of over 95% for all classes.
• Although, high accuracies were achieved when using an unreduced dataset consisting of all HSI texture features, the overall best performer was determined to be a reduced data model that relied on hue and saturation features.
• This model was selected due to reduced computational load and the elimination of intensity features, which are not robust in the presence of ambient light variation.
