Abstract

Date fruits are the most common fruit in the Middle East and North Africa. There are a wide variety of dates with different types, colors, shapes, tastes, and nutritional values. Classifying, identifying, and recognizing dates would play a crucial role in the agriculture, commercial, food, and health sectors. Nevertheless, there is no or limited work to collect a reliable dataset for many classes. In this paper, we collected the dataset of date fruits by picturing dates from primary environments: farms and shops (e.g., online or local markets). The combined dataset is unique due to the multiplicity of items. To our knowledge, no dataset contains the same number of classes from natural environments. The collected dataset has 27 classes with 3228 images. The experimental results presented are based on five stages. The first stage applied traditional machine learning algorithms for measuring the accuracy of features based on pixel intensity and color distribution. The second stage applied a deep transfer learning (TL) model to select the best model accuracy of date classification. In the third stage, the feature extraction part of the model was fine-tuned by applying different retrained points to select the best retraining point. In the fourth stage, the fully connected layer of the model was fine-tuned to achieve the best classification configurations of the model. In the fifth stage, regularization was applied to the classification layer of the best-selected model from the fourth stage, where the validation accuracy reached 97.21% and the best test accuracy was 95.21%.
