Bean Split Ratio for Dry Bean Canning Quality and Variety Analysis
Splits on canned beans appear in the process of preparation and canning.
Researchers are studying how they are influenced by cooking environment and
genotype. However, there is no existing method to automatically quantify or to
characterize the severity of splits. To solve this, we propose two measures:
the Bean Split Ratio (BSR) that quantifies the overall severity of splits, and
the Bean Split Histogram (BSH) that characterizes the size distribution of
splits. We create a pixel-wise segmentation method to automatically estimate
these measures from images. We also present a bean dataset of recombinant
inbred lines of two genotypes, use the BSR and BSH to assess canning quality,
and explore heritability of these properties.Comment: IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshops,
