Modeling of Geometric Size Distribution of Almond

The purpose of this study was modeling the mass and size distribution of three varieties of almond and its kernel (seed) using the Weibull distribution function. Furthermore, some physical properties of seeds were measured using an image processing technique. A two-parameter Weibull distribution function was chosen for modeling the size and mass distributions. The Weibull distribution of width was better modeled than the other sizes and the distribution of sizes mainly were better modeled than the mass. The mass distribution of almonds was approached to the normal probability density function, whereas the dimension distributions of seeds had negatively skewed.
