Feature extraction is an important component of a pattern recognition system. A well-defined feature extraction algorithm makes the identification process more effective and efficient. Quality checking is one of the most prominent steps in many applications using Feature extraction. Several techniques exist for the quality checking of wooden materials. However, image based quality checking of wooden materials still remains a challenging task. Although trivial quality checking methods are available, they do not give useful results in most situations. This paper addresses the issue of quality checking of wooden materials using feature extraction techniques with high accuracy and reliability. Experiments conducted under the proposed conditions showing significant results are presented.
