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 research mamdani fuzzy inference system (mfis) was applied as a decision making technique to classify the mozafati dates based on quality. two date parameters including the length and freshness were measured for 500 date fruits. these dates were graded by both a human expert and mfis. grading results obtained from fuzzy system showed 91% general conformity with the experimental results.
