Palm oil is an important commodity for Indonesia. Therefore, oil palm cultivation is a supporter of the success of oil palm commodities in producing products. The harvesting process is an activity that must be considered because it affects the production and quality of oil palm fresh fruit bunches. For this reason, the sorting of oil palm fresh fruit bunches is very important. This paper tries to classify the maturity level of oil palm fresh fruit bunches through image management using the Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) algorithm. LDA algorithm is an approach used to classify data into several classes. The steps taken in this paper are starting with the transformation of the color space from RGB images to L*a*b images, then image segmentation with thresholding and feature extraction with HSV. Image transformation to HSV aims to make it easier to classify image characteristics based on hue and saturation. Furthermore, the LDA algorithm will perform a dispersion matrix analysis in order to obtain optimal projections to enter into spaces to look for patterns that can be separated. This paper finds that the classification of oil palm fresh fruit bunches image processing using the LDA algorithm produces an accuracy rate of 85%. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
