A hybrid hue saturation lightness, gray level co-occurrence matrix, and k-nearest neighbour for palm-sugar classification

Abstrak

In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for high-quality raw materials driven by consumers and the food industry. This study aims to build a model to predict the type of palm sugar using a hybrid method of hue-saturation-lightness (HSL), gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), and K-nearest neighbor (KNN). The price of palm sugar is determined based on the type and ingredients used. However, due to the lack of public knowledge in distinguishing the types of palm sugar, there is the potential for price manipulation that can harm the community. The accuracy rate of 97.6% of the palm sugar type prediction results shows that the model that was built has worked very well. The results have practical implications, such as developing automated systems to classify palm species in specific industries to benefit economics and operational efficiency. Future research directions may explore the integration of advanced machine-learning techniques and real-time image processing for further improving classification performance and scalability in industrial applications.
