Comparative Study of Red-Green-Blue (RGB), Hue-Saturation-Value (HSV), CIE L*a*B* (Lab), and Luminance-Chrominance (YCbCr) Colour Spaces for Fruit Segmentation in Agricultural Images
Abstract Fruit detection and segmentation are key components of agricultural automation pipelines, enabling tasks such as yield estimation, quality sorting, and robotic harvesting in resource-constrained environments. This study evaluates four colour spaces – RGB, HSV, CIE L*a*b* (LAB), and YCbCr – for threshold-based...
