Multispectral Imaging
Fruit Maturity Classification
Overview
For my undergraduate thesis, I designed a complete multispectral imaging system to estimate fruit maturity. With no existing datasets available, I built the physical acquisition setup, collected and curated the data, and trained machine learning models to classify ripeness stages.
I emphasized interpretability, analyzing which spectral bands contributed most to prediction accuracy. This project exemplifies my approach of building end-to-end systems from raw signals rather than relying on curated inputs.
