Padmaja Devi Associate Professor, TKR College of Engineering and Technology, Hyderabad, Telangana, India Dr. R. Mohan Kumar Professor, Sri Satya Sai University of Technology and Medical Science, Sehore, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India ABSTRACT In order to classify the quality of corn kernels in an affordable, convenient, and accurate manner, a method based on image analysis and Euclidian distance between Eigen energies of segmented corn kernel is proposed. A total of 26 corn kernels are used for the experiments. Experimental results show that the Euclidian distance between Eigen energies and classification accuracy rates as 78%. It is concluded that the Euclidian distance between Eigen energies algorithm better classification method. With a relatively small number of samples, Euclidian distance between Eigen energies algorithm can improve the blue eye detection accuracy of corn kernels. Key words: Euclidian distance between Eigen energies, blue eye Cite this Article: Ranjita Rathore and Manju Mandot, Advantage of Agritourism with Information and Communication Technology in Agriculture, International Journal of Advanced Research in Engineering and Technology, 11(12), 2020, pp. 3150-3154. http://iaeme.com/Home/issue/IJARET?Volume=11&Issue=12 1. INTRODUCTION The drying of grain kernels is an important issue in agriculture that requires precise timing. Grain kernels that are not dried properly may become infected by fungi, thereby greatly reducing the economic value of the product. In popcorn kernels, one of these problematic infections is called blue-eye damage and is caused by fungi from the Penicillium genus. Fungi can spread over the kernels after harvesting if they are not dried rapidly enough. However, popcorn cannot be dried rapidly with the use of high heat because it may crack and be unable to pop. If a balance between the time until storage and the time for proper drying is not achieved successfully, kernels may still be wet when they are sent for binning, thereby creating a favourable environment for fungal infections to spread. Blue-eye damage changes the taste of popped kernels and causes consumers
