Quality determination of Mozafati dates using Mamdani fuzzy inference system

Quality determination of Mozafati dates using Mamdani fuzzy inference system

The date fruit, which is produced mostly in the hot arid regions of Southern Asia and North Africa, in large quantities, is marketed all over the world as an important crop. Date grading is an important process for producers and affects the fruit quality evaluation and export market. In this researc...
