Abstract
Proposes a feature extraction algorithm for automatically grading beef marbling. Considering the practical usage of a beef marbling grading support system, the feature extraction algorithm for beef marbling that can precisely identify the distribution of fat particles and the fat contents must be designed to be simple and robust for actual use. From the results of our experiments, the usefulness and appropriateness of using run length histogram quantized data as the feature quantities for the grading of beef marbling has been confirmed
