Abstract

Monitoring the quality of stored glutinous rice (GR) is crucial for ensuring its shelf life and nutritional value. This study explores the potential of using RGB imaging as a simpler, more accessible alternative to hyperspectral imaging (HSI) for assessing key quality parameters, such as moisture content (MC) and water absorption capacity (WAC), under various storage conditions. GR samples were stored at -10℃, 6℃, and ~26℃, and their quality was monitored using both imaging techniques. RGB analysis showed that colder storage temperatures preserved the colour stability of GR, while HSI data revealed significant reflectance changes related to grain composition. Machine learning models trained on both RGB and HSI data demonstrated high accuracy in predicting MC and WAC. The findings suggest that RGB imaging could serve as an efficient and cost-effective method for routine monitoring of rice quality, while HSI remains valuable for more detailed analyses. This research contributes to the development of practical tools for better managing rice storage and quality, benefiting both producers and consumers.
