The output of this process is a set of a global vector feature that represents the shape of the leaf images. It is shown that TMI can extract vector feature with Percentage of Absolute Error (PAE) less than 10.38 percent. Therefore, TMI vector feature will be the input to second stage. The second stage involves classification of leaf images based on the derived feature gained in the previous stage. It is found that GRNN classifier produces 100 percent classification rate with average computational time of 0.47 seconds. 2009-10 Thesis http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/11539/ http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/11539/5/ZalikhaZulkifliMFSKSM2009TOC.pdf application/pdf en public masters Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Faculty of Computer Science and Information Systems Faculty of Computer Science and Information System |
