Abstract :
The purpose of this paper is to propose the image processing method for recognition of the features of the specific living wild grasses in a field. In this paper, we show the preprocessing method of extracting the, wild grasses from camera images based on the color, and the finding method of the features of the wild grass by pattern matching using the competitive neural networks. Moreover we show in the simulations that the extraction of the features of specific wild grass is possible by presented method.
