Popis: Classification of real-time X-ray images of pistachio nuts is discussed. The goal is to reduce the percentage of infested nuts while not rejecting more than a few percent of the good nuts. Radial basis function (RBF) neural network classifiers are emphasized. New training procedures are developed that allow samples such as those that are near decision boundaries to be treated differently from other samples. New clustering methods and new cluster classes are advanced to select and separately control various RBF parameters. These advancements are shown to be of use in this application.
