The human sensory test is often used to obtain the sensory quantities of odors, however, the fluctuation of results due to the experts condition can cause discrepancies among panelists. We have developed an artificial odor recognition system using a quartz resonator sensor and backpropagation neural networks as the pattern recognition system in order to eliminate the disadvantage of human panelist system. The backpropagation neural networks shows high recognition rate for single component odor, however, become very low when it is used to discriminate mixture fragrances odor. In this paper we have proposed an ensemble of backpropagation neural networks as the pattern recognition system, and by using the ensemble learning mechanisms, the recognition rate is significantly increased, especially when using ensemble neural networks with five components.

AbstractGrowing interest in biodiversity and conservation has increased the demand for accurate and consistent identification of arthropods. Unfortunately, professional taxonomists are already overburdened and underfunded and their numbers are not increasing with significant speed to meet the demand. In an effort to bridge the gap between professional taxonomists and non-specialists by making the results of taxonomic research more accessible, we present a partially automated pattern recognition system utilizing artificial neural networks (ANNs). Various artificial neural networks were trained to identify spider species using only digital images of female genitalia, from which key shape information had been extracted by wavelet transform. Three different sized networks were evaluated based on their ability to discriminate a test set of six species to either the genus or the species level. The species represented three genera of the wolf spiders (Araneae: Lycosidae). The largest network achieved the highest accuracy, identifying specimens to the correct genus 100% of the time and to the correct species an average of 81% of the time. In addition, the networks were most accurate when identifying specimens in a hierarchical system, first to genus and then to species. This test system was surprisingly accurate considering the small size of our training set.
