The quality of mangoes is a crucial factor in both domestic and commercial markets that directly influences consumer satisfaction and economic value. Traditional methods of checking mango quality often involve destructive techniques, which lead to the loss of the fruit in the testing process. This study presents an advanced approach that could predict the quality of mangoes using advance non-destructive methods leveraging machine learning algorithms to predict quality parameters such as ripeness, sweetness and overall freshness without damaging the fruit. In this research, a dataset consisting of various mango samples was collected, with attributes including color, texture, size, weight and acidity levels. Sensors, such as pH sensors (for acidity) and e-nose sensors (for aroma and sweetness detection), were used to gather data, while a combination of machine learning models such as Decision Tree, K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Automated Machine Learning (AutoMLP), Naive Bayes were applied to predict the mangoes’ quality. The accuracy of each model was measured based on its ability to classify mangoes as fresh, ripe, or rotten. The results determine that the AutoMLP model performs the best out of the traditional models, achieving an accuracy of 98.46%, making it the most suitable model for mango quality prediction. The research explains the significance of feature extraction methods, model optimization, and sensor data pretreatment in reaching a high prediction accuracy.
