ABSTRACT
In this paper the results of automated, vision based classification of oak seeds viability i.e. their ability to germinate are presented. In the first stage, using a photo of the seed cross-section, a set of feature vectors were determined. Then three classification methods were examined: k-nearest neighbours (k-NNs), artificial neural networks (ANNs) and support vector machines (SVMs). Finally, a 73.1% precision was obtained for kNN and a 64 bin histogram, 78.5% for ANN and a 4 bin histogram and 78.8% for SVM with a 64 bin histogram.
