Özet

Aim of study: This study was conducted to classify hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) varieties by using artificial neural network and dis-criminant analysis. Area of study: Samsun Province, Turkey. Material and methods: The physical, mechanical and optical properties of 11 hazelnut varieties were determined for three major axes. The parameters of physical, mechanical and optical properties were included as independent variables, while hazelnut varieties were inclu-ded as dependent variables. Models were created for each of the three axes to classify hazelnut varieties. Main results: Classification success rates with Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Discriminant Analysis (DA) were found as 89.1% and 92.7% for X axis, as 92.7% and 92.7% for Y axis and as 86.8% and 88.7% for Z axis, respectively. The classification results of ANN and DA models were found to be very close to each other. Both models can be used in the classification of hazelnut varieties. Research highlights: The results obtained for the identification and classification of hazelnut varieties show the feasibility and effecti-veness of the proposed models.
