Abstract

We attempted to measure the visual characteristics of cooked rice using image analysis. In this study, measurement parameters were defined by luminance analysis to examine correlations of measurement data with a sensory test. In addition, experimental conditions were determined by estimation of scatter on data. More specific results were described below. To describe the visual characteristics of cooked rice, the characteristics were divided into brightness and the amount of luster. Average luminance was defined as a parameter for brightness of cooked rice. Threshold (= digital number 185) to extract the luster on cooked rice was determined, and the cumulative number of pixels above the threshold was defined as a parameter of the amount of luster. Since measurement data were closely related to sensory test, it was considered that those parameters were valid for estimating the visual characteristics of cooked rice. In the examination of cooking conditions, the amount of added water was required remain constant and that amount was determined to be 1.5 times the rice weight. According to this method, it is able to efficiently measure 100 samples per a day.
