Image Processing using OPEN CV for Waste Segregation [closed]

asked 2014-07-14 18:37:14 -0600

I am a senior computer engineering student trying to create a project that will Identify trashes like plastic bottles, tin cans, and other recyclable stuffs and be compared to biodegradable trash.

I would like to ask it it is doable by the means of image processing?

Yes, simply said, train object models for each type of trash you want to identify, clustering them into generic classes, then apply those detectors onto your input images.

For example cluster into bottles, random plastic, wood, ... and make classifiers for each of them.

Sir Steven. what method is the training of object modes to each type? does it a technique in image processing?

There are several techniques like keypoint detectors, cascade classifiers, HOG+ SVM, ... it all depends on what type works best for you. Trial and error FTW!
