This paper focuses on a rapid and nondestructive way to discriminate the geographical origin of Anxi-Tieguanyin tea by near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and chemometrics. 450 representative samples were collected from Anxi County, the original producing area of Tieguanyin tea, and another 120 Tieguanyin samples with similar appearance were collected from unprotected producing areas in China. All these samples were measured by NIR. The Stahel-Donoho estimates (SDE) outlyingness diagnosis was used to remove the outliers. Partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLSDA) was performed to develop a classification model and predict the authenticity of unknown objects. To improve the sensitivity and specificity of classification, the raw data was preprocessed to reduce unwanted spectral variations by standard normal variate (SNV) transformation, taking second-order derivatives (D2) spectra, and smoothing. As the best model, the sensitivity and specificity reached 0.931 and 1.000 with SNV spectra. Combination of NIR spectrometry and statistical model selection can provide an effective and rapid method to discriminate the geographical producing area of Anxi-Tieguanyin.

Seed vigour significantly influences the seed production and plant regeneration performance. The capability of NIR spectroscopy to identify seed vigour across multiple tree species rapidly and cost-effectively has been examined. The NIR spectra of seeds from five different tree species have been taken. Standard germination testing has also been used to verify seed vigour. Three classification models were trained, i.e., partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLSDA), support vector machine (SVM) and Multilayer Deep neural network (DNN). Three types of spectral pre-processing methods and their combination were used to fit for the best classification model. The DNN model has shown good performance on all pre-processing methods and yielded higher accuracy than other models in this study, with accuracy, sensitivity, precision and specificity all equal to 1. Compared with other pre-processing methods, the second derivative spectra have shown a robust and consistent classification result in both PLSDA and DNN models. Five important regions including 1270, 1650, 1720, 2100, 2300 nm were found highly related to the seed vigour. This study has found a rapid and efficient methodology for seed vigour classification, which could serve for industrial use in a rapid and non-destructive way.

This paper reports the application of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy and pattern recognition methods to rapid and automatic discrimination of the genotypes (parent, transgenic, and parent-transgenic hybrid) of cotton plants. Diffuse reflectance NIR spectra of representative cotton seeds (n=120) and leaves (n=123) were measured in the range of 4000–12000 cm−1. A practical problem when developing classification models is the degradation and even breakdown of models caused by outliers. Considering the high-dimensional nature and uncertainty of potential spectral outliers, robust principal component analysis (rPCA) was applied to each separate sample group to detect and exclude outliers. The influence of different data preprocessing methods on model prediction performance was also investigated. The results demonstrate that rPCA can effectively detect outliers and maintain the efficiency of discriminant analysis. Moreover, the classification accuracy can be significantly improved by second-order derivative and standard normal variate (SNV). The best partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLSDA) models obtained total classification accuracy of 100% and 97.6% for seeds and leaves, respectively.

Applications of Fourier transform near infrared (FT-NIR) spectroscopy in fisheries science are currently limited. This current analysis of otolith spectral data demonstrate the potential applicability of FT-NIR spectroscopy to otolith chemistry and spatial variability in fisheries science. The objective of this study was to examine the use of NIR spectroscopy as a tool to differentiate among marine fishes in four large marine ecosystems. We examined otoliths from 13 different species, with three of these species coming from different regions. Principal component analysis described the main directions along which the specimens were separated. The separation of species and their ecosystems may suggest interactions between fish phylogeny, ontogeny, and environmental conditions that can be evaluated using NIR spectroscopy. In order to discriminate spectra across ecosystems and species, four supervised classification model techniques were utilized: soft independent modelling of class analogies, support vector machine discriminant analysis, partial least squares discriminant analysis, and k-nearest neighbor analysis (KNN). This study showed that the best performing model to classify combined ecosystems, all four ecosystems, and species was the KNN model, which had an overall accuracy rate of 99.9%, 97.6%, and 91.5%, respectively. Results from this study suggest that further investigations are needed to determine applications of NIR spectroscopy to otolith chemistry and spatial variability.

A set of 97 potato starch samples with a phosphate content corresponding to a phosphorus content between 0.029 and 0.11 g per 100 g dry matter was analysed using a Rapid Visco Analyzer (RVA) and near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, (700–2498 nm). NIR-based prediction of phosphate content was possible with a root mean square error of cross-validation ( RMSECV) of 0.006% using PLSR (partial least squares regression). However, the NIR/PLSR model relied on weak spectral signals, and was highly sensitive to sample preparation. The best prediction of phosphate content from the RVA viscograms was a linear regression model based on the RVA variable Breakdown, which gave a RMSECV of 0.008%. NIR/PLSR prediction of the RVA variables Peak viscosity and Breakdown was successful, probably because they were highly related to phosphate content in the present data. Prediction of the other RVA variables from NIR/PLSR was mediocre (Through, Final Viscosity) or not possible (Setback, Peak time, Pasting temperature).
