Abstract

EN EL CALCULO AUTOMATICO DE GRANOS DE CEREALES O PRODUCTOS GRANULARES SIMILARES MANIPULADOS A GRANEL, LOS GRANOS SE TRANSPORTAN SOBRE UN TRANSPORTADOR (15) DE CORREA VIBRATORIA. DEBIDO A LAS VIBRACIONES, LOS GRANOS SE EXTIENDEN Y SE COLOCAN EN RANURAS (14) EN LA CORREA, PARA ORIENTARSE EN LA MISMA DIRECCION PRINCIPALMENTE. UN VIDEOCAMARA (40) PRODUCE IMAGENES DIGITALES DE TODOS LOS GRANOS SOBRE LA CORREA. LOS GRANOS SE IDENTIFICAN EN LAS IMAGENES, Y PARA CADA GRANO SE PRODUCEN SEÑALES DE ENTRADA A UNA RED NEURAL, BASADA EN LOS VALORES DE ELEMENTOS DE IMAGENES PARA LOS ELEMENTOS DE IMAGENES QUE REPRESENTAN EL GRANO. A CONTINUACION LA RED NEURAL DETERMINA A QUE PERTENECE CADA GRANO ENTRE LAS CLASES PREDETERMINADAS DE UNA PLURALIDAD DE ELLAS.IN THE AUTOMATIC CALCULATION OF CEREAL GRAINS OR SIMILAR GRANULAR PRODUCTS MANIPULATED IN BULK, THE GRAINS ARE TRANSPORTED ON A VIBRATORY BELT CONVEYOR (15). DUE TO THE VIBRATIONS, THE GRAINS ARE EXTENDED AND PLACED IN SLOTS (14) IN THE BELT, TO BE ORIENTED IN THE SAME DIRECTION MAINLY. A VIDEO CAMERA (40) PRODUCES DIGITAL IMAGES OF ALL GRAINS ON THE BELT. THE GRAINS ARE IDENTIFIED IN THE IMAGES, AND FOR EACH GRAIN SIGNALS OF ENTRY TO A NEURAL NETWORK ARE PRODUCED, BASED ON THE VALUES OF ELEMENTS OF IMAGES FOR THE ELEMENTS OF IMAGES THAT REPRESENT THE GRAIN. BELOW THE NEURAL NETWORK DETERMINES THAT EACH GRAIN BELONGS TO THE DEFAULT CLASSES OF A PLURALITY OF THEM.
