Egyptian Nile Tilapia Fish Freshness Assessment Based on an Efficient Image Processing Method

The Egyptian Nile Tilapia fish are kind of fish that exist in freshwater and less commonly typically found residing in brackish water. The freshness of tilapia fish is depending on the way the fish are stored after the harvesting time. The two essential factors that have an effect on the fish excellent are the retention time and medium used in the storage procedure. As the days pass, the quality of the fish sample may be decreased till it finally reaches the consumers. This paper proposed an automatic method for classifying tilapia fish freshness based on having fish image only. The proposed method is applied to real data-set images captured during several different days. The experimental results show the effectiveness of our method in determining fish freshness in terms of both accuracy and processing time. The experimental consequences display the effectiveness of our technique in determining fish freshness taking into account the accuracy of freshness results at a suitable processing time.
