Abstract
Aims and Background: Agriculture plays a major role in the global economy, providing food, raw materials, and jobs to billions of people and driving economic growth and poverty reduction. Rice is the most widely consumed crop domestically, making it a particularly important crop for rural populations. The exact number of rice varieties worldwide is difficult to determine as new varieties are constantly being developed and marketed.
Objective: The most common method of rice variety identification is a comparison of its physical and chemical properties to a reference collection of known types.
Methodology: This is a relatively quick and cost-effective approach that can be used to accurately differentiate between distinct varieties. In some cases, genetic testing may be used to confirm the identity of a variety, although this technique is more expensive and time-consuming. However, we can also utilize efficient, precise, and cost-effective digital image processing and machine vision techniques.
Results: This study describes different types of ensemble methods, such as bagging (Decision Tree, Random Forest, Extra Tree), boosting (AdaBoost, Gradient Boost, and XGBoost), and voting classifiers to classify five different varieties of rice. Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) has achieved the highest average classification accuracy of 99.60% among all the algorithms.
Conclusion: The findings of the performance measurement indicated that the proposed model was successful in classifying the various varieties of rice.
