Hyperspectral imaging is a nondestructive testing technology that integrates spectroscopy and iconology technologies, which enables us to quickly obtain both internal and external information of objects and identify crop seed varieties. First, the hyperspectral images of ten soybean seed varieties were collected and the reflectance was obtained. Savitzky-Golay smoothing (SG), first derivative (FD), standard normal variate (SNV), fast Fourier transform (FFT), Hilbert transform (HT), and multiplicative scatter correction (MSC) spectral reflectance pretreatment methods were used. Then, the feature wavelengths and feature information of the pretreated spectral reflectance data were extracted using competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), the successive projections algorithm (SPA), and principal component analysis (PCA). Finally, 5 classifiers, Bayes, support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbor (KNN), ensemble learning (EL), and artificial neural network (ANN), were used to identify seed varieties. The results showed that MSC-CARS-EL had the highest accuracy among the 90 combinations, with training set, test set, and 5-fold cross-validation accuracies of 100%, 100%, and 99.8%, respectively. Moreover, the contribution of spectral pretreatment to discrimination accuracy was higher than those of feature extraction and classifier selection. Pretreatment methods determined the range of the identification accuracy, feature-selective methods and classifiers only changed within this range. The experimental results provide a good reference for the identification of other crop seed varieties.

In this paper, we design method for recognition of fingerprint and IRIS using feature level fusion and decision level fusion in Children multimodal biometric system. Initially, Histogram of Gradients (HOG), Gabour and Maximum filter response are extracted from both the domains of fingerprint and IRIS and considered for identification accuracy. The combination of feature vector of all the possible features is recommended by biometrics traits of fusion. For fusion vector the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is used to select features. The reduced features are fed into fusion classifier of K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Navie Bayes(NB). For children multimodal biometric system the suitable combination of features and fusion classifiers is identified. The experimentation conducted on children’s fingerprint and IRIS database and results reveal that fusion combination outperforms individual. In addition the proposed model advances the unimodal biometrics system.

Abstract Background: Hyperspectral imaging is an emerging technology applied in plant disease research, including disease detection, multiple disease identification, disease severity assessment, and disease resistance evaluation. Rice leaf blast is prevalent all over the world and is a serious threat to rice yield and quality. In this paper, the standard deviation (STD) of the spectral reflectance of whole leaves was calculated and a support vector machine (SVM) model was built to classify the degree of rice leaf blast at different growth stages.Results: The classification accuracy of the full-spectrum-based SVM model at jointing stage, booting stage and heading stage was 94.44%, 81.58% and 80.48%, respectively. The corresponding macro recall values were 0.9714, 0.715 and 0.79. The average STD of the spectral reflectance of the whole leaf differed not only within samples with different disease grades, but also those with the same disease level. Conclusion: The STD of the spectral reflectance of whole leaf could be utilized to classify the rice leaf blast degree at different growth stages. The classification method was derived from physiological phenomena that were visible to the naked eye, making it more intuitive and convincing.

Powdery mildew (PM, Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici) is a devastating disease for wheat growth and production. It is highly meaningful that the disease severities can be objectively and accurately identified by image visualization technology. In this study, an integral method was proposed based on a hyperspectral imaging dataset and machine learning algorithms. The disease severities of wheat leaves infected with PM were quantitatively identified based on hyperspectral images and image segmentation techniques. A technical procedure was proposed to perform the identification and evaluation of leaf-scale wheat PM, specifically including three primary steps of the acquisition and preprocessing of hyperspectral images, the selection of characteristic bands, and model construction. Firstly, three-dimensional reduction algorithms, namely principal component analysis (PCA), random forest (RF), and the successive projections algorithm (SPA), were comparatively used to select the bands that were most sensitive to PM. Then, three diagnosis models were constructed by a support vector machine (SVM), RF, and a probabilistic neural network (PNN). Finally, the best model was selected by comparing the overall accuracies. The results show that the SVM model constructed by PCA dimensionality reduction had the best result, and the classification accuracy reached 93.33% by a cross-validation method. There was an obvious improvement of the identification accuracy with the model, which achieved an 88.00% accuracy derived from the original hyperspectral images. This study can provide a reference for accurately estimating the disease severity of leaf-scale wheat PM and other plant diseases by non-contact measurement technology.

AbstractRecently, hyperspectral-imaging (HSI), as a rapid and non-destructive technique, has generated much interest due to its unique potential to monitor food quality and safety. The specific aim of the study is to investigate the potential of the HSI (430–1010 nm) coupled with Linear Deep Neural Network (LDNN) to predict the TVB-N content of rainbow trout fillet during 12 days storage at 4 ± 2 °C. After the acquisition of hyperspectral images, the TVB-N content of fish fillets was obtained by a conventional method (micro-Kjeldahl distillation). To simplify the calibration models, nine optimal wavelengths were selected by the successive projections algorithm. A seven layers LDNN was designed to estimate the TVB-N content of samples. The LDNN model showed acceptable performance for prediction of TVB-N content of fish fillet (R2p = 0.853; RSMEP = 3.159 and RDP = 3.001). The performance of LDNN model was comparable with the results of previous works. Although, the results of the meta-analysis did not show any significant difference between various chemometric models. However, the least-squares support vector machine algorithm showed better prediction results as compared to the other models (RMSEP: 2.63 and R2p = 0.897). Further studies are required to improve the prediction power of the deep learning model for prediction of rainbow-trout fish quality.

The classification of wheat grain varieties is of great value because its high purity is the yield and quality guarantee. In this study, hyperspectral imaging combined with the chemometric methods was applied to explore and implement the varieties classification of wheat seeds. The hyperspectral images of all the samples covering 874–1734 nm bands were collected. Exploratory analysis was first carried out while using principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discrimination analysis (LDA). Spectral preprocessing methods including standard normal variate (SNV), multiplicative scatter correction (MSC), and wavelet transform (WT) were introduced, and their effects on discriminant models were studied to eliminate the interference of instrumental and environmental factors. PCA loading, successive projections algorithm (SPA), and random frog (RF) were applied to extract feature wavelengths for redundancy elimination owing to the possibility of existing redundant spectral information. Classification models were developed based on full wavelengths and feature wavelengths using LDA, support vector machine (SVM), and extreme learning machine (ELM). This optimal model was finally utilized to generate visualization map to observe the classification performance intuitively. When comparing with other models, ELM based on full wavelengths achieved the best accuracy up to 91.3%. The overall results suggested that hyperspectral imaging was a potential tool for the rapid and accurate identification of wheat varieties, which could be conducted in large-scale seeds classification and quality detection in modern seed industry.

In order to improve the identification accuracy of fuzzy support vector machine for chalky rice, this paper puts forward a fuzzy support vector machine method based on fuzzy K nearest-neighbor. This method firstly gets a sample center by calculating sample mean aimed at every class sample; and then it calculates the initial membership of sample by calculating the distance between sample and center; finally, it calculates K neighbor points of each sample, calculates the membership of sample according to the fuzzy K neighbor method, and integrates the initial membership with fuzzy K neighbor membership at a certain proportion, to get the ultimate membership values of samples. Combined with image detection problems of rice, verify the validity of this method. Experiments show that this method not only can improve the accuracy of identification but also can improve its speed, with a better result than common fuzzy support vector machine.

Chinese walnuts have extraordinary nutritional and organoleptic qualities, and counterfeit Chinese walnut products are pervasive in the market. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technique to accurately identify and visualize Chinese walnut varieties. Hyperspectral images of 400 Chinese walnuts including 200 samples of Ningguo variety and 200 samples of Lin’an variety were acquired in range of 400–1000 nm. Spectra were extracted from representative regions of interest (ROIs), and principal component analysis (PCA) of spectra showed that the characteristic second principal component (PC2) was potentially effective in variety identification. The PC transformation was also conducted to hyperspectral images to make an exploratory visualization according to pixel-wise PC scores. Three different modeling methods including partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), k-nearest neighbor (KNN), and support vector machine (SVM) were individually employed to develop classification models. Results indicated that raw full spectra constructed PLS-DA model performed best with correct classification rates (CCRs) of 97.33%, 95.33%, and 92.00% in calibration, cross-validation, and prediction sets, respectively. Successful projects algorithm (SPA), competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS), and PC loadings were individually used for effective wavelengths selection. Subsequently, simplified PLS-DA model based on wavelengths selected by CARS yielded the best 96.33%, 95.67% and 91.00% CCRs in the three sets. This optimal CARS-PLS-DA model acquired a sensitivity of 93.62%, a specificity of 88.68%, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) value of 0.91, and Kappa coefficient of 0.82 in prediction set. Classification maps were finally generated by classifying the varieties of each pixel in multispectral images at CARS-selected wavelengths, and the general variety was then readily discernible. These results demonstrated that features extracted from HSI had outstanding ability, and could be applied as a reliable tool for the further development of an on-line identification system for Chinese walnut variety.

Soybean seed purity is a critical factor in agricultural products, standardization of seed quality, and food processing. In this study, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) as an effective technology was successfully used to identify ten varieties of soybean seeds. We improved the traditional sample preparation scheme for LIBS. Instead of grinding and squashing, we propose a time-efficient method by pressing soybean seeds into rubber sand filled with culture plates through a ruler to ensure a relatively uniform surface height. In our experimental scheme, three LIBS spectra were finally collected for each soybean seed. A majority vote based on three spectra was applied as the final decision judging the attribution of a single soybean seed. The results showed that the support vector machine (SVM) obtained the optimal identification accuracy of 90% in the prediction set. In addition, PCA-ResNet (propagation coefficient adaptive ResNet) and PCSA-ResNet (propagation coefficient synchronous adaptive ResNet) were designed based on typical ResNet structure by changing the way of self-adaption of propagation coefficients. Combined with a new form of input data called spectral matrix, PCSA-ResNet obtained the optimal performance with the discriminate accuracy of 91.75% in the prediction set. T-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) was used to visualize the clustering process of the extracted features by PCSA-ResNet. For the interpretation of the good performance of PCSA-ResNet coupled with the spectral matrix, saliency maps were further applied to visually show the pixel positions of the spectral matrix that had a significant influence on the discrimination results, indicating that the content and proportion of elements in soybean seeds could reflect the variety differences.

The adulteration in Chinese chestnuts affects the quality, taste, and brand value. The objective of this study was to explore the feasibility of the hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technique to determine the geographical origin of Chinese chestnuts. An HSI system in spectral range of 400–1000 nm was applied to identify a total of 417 Chinese chestnuts from three different geographical origins. Principal component analysis (PCA) was preliminarily used to investigate the differences of average spectra of the samples from different geographical origins. A deep-learning-based model (1D-CNN, one-dimensional convolutional neural network) was developed first, and then the model based on full spectra and optimal wavelengths were established for various machine learning methods, including partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and particle swarm optimization-support vector machine (PSO-SVM). The optimal results based on full spectra for 1D-CNN, PLS-DA, and PSO-SVM models were 97.12%, 97.12%, and 95.68%, respectively. Competitive adaptive reweighted sampling (CARS) and a successive projections algorithm (SPA) were individually utilized for wavelengths selection, and the results of simplified models generally improved. The contrasting results demonstrated that the prediction accuracies of SPA-PLS-DA and 1D-CNN both reached 97.12%, but 1D-CNN presented a higher Kappa coefficient value than SPA-PLS-DA. Meanwhile, the sensitivities and specificities of SPA-PLS-DA and 1D-CNN models were both above 90% for the samples from each geographical origin. These results indicated that both SPA-PLS-DA and 1D-CNN models combined with HSI have great potential for the geographical origin identification of Chinese chestnuts.

Wheat yellow rust is one of the most destructive diseases in wheat production and significantly affects wheat quality and yield. Accurate and non-destructive identification of yellow rust is critical to wheat production management. Hyperspectral imaging technology has proven to be effective in identifying plant diseases. We investigated the feasibility of identifying yellow rust on wheat leaves using spectral features and textural features (TFs) of hyperspectral images. First, the hyperspectral images were preprocessed, and healthy and yellow rust-infected samples were obtained by creating regions of interest. Second, the extraction of spectral reflectance characteristics and vegetation indices (VIs) were performed from the preprocessed hyperspectral images, and the TFs were extracted using the grey-level co-occurrence matrix from the images transformed by principal component analysis. Third, the successive projections algorithm was employed to choose the optimum wavebands (OWs), and correlation-based feature selection was employed to select the optimal VIs and TFs (those most sensitive to yellow rust and having minimal redundancy between features). Finally, identification models of wheat yellow rust were established using a support vector machine and different features. Six OWs (538, 598, 689, 702, 751, and 895 nm), four VIs (nitrogen reflectance index, photochemical reflectance index, greenness index, and anthocyanin reflectance index), and four TFs (correlation 1, correlation 2, entropy 2, and second moment 3) were selected. The identification models based on the OWs, VIs, and TFs provided overall accuracies of 83.3%, 89.5%, and 86.5%, respectively. The TF results were especially encouraging. The models with the combination of spectral features and TFs exhibited better performance than those using the spectral features or TFs alone. The accuracies of the models with the combined features (OWs and TFs, Vis, and TFs) were 90.6% and 95.8%, respectively. These values were 7.3% and 6.3% higher, respectively, than those of the models using only the OWs or VIs. The model with the combined feature (VIs and TFs) had the highest accuracy (95.8%) and was used to map the yellow rust lesions on wheat leaves with different damage levels. The results showed that the yellow rust lesions on the leaves could be identified accurately. Overall, the combination of spectral features and TFs of hyperspectral images significantly improved the identification accuracy of wheat yellow rust.
