Integration of Artificial Neural Network Modeling and Hyperspectral Data Preprocessing for Discrimination of Colla Corii Asini Adulteration

الملخص EN

The study of hyperspectral imaging in tandem with spectral preprocessing and neural network techniques was conducted to realize Colla Corii Asini (CCA, E’jiao) adulteration discrimination.

CCA was adulterated with pig skin gelatin (PSG) in the range of 5–95% (w/w) at 5% increments.

Three methods were used to pretreat the original spectra, which are multiplicative scatter correction (MSC), Savitzky-Golay (SG) smoothing, and the combination of MSC and SG (MSC-SG).

SPA was employed to select the characteristic wavelengths (CWs) to reduce the high dimension.

Colour and texture features of CWs were extracted as input of prediction model.

Two kinds of artificial neural network (ANN) with three spectral preprocessing methods were applied to establish the prediction models.

The prediction model of generalized regression neural network (GRNN) in tandem with the MSC-SG preprocessed method presented satisfactory performance with the correct classification rate value of 92.5%.

The results illustrated that the integration of preprocessing methods, hyperspectral imaging features, and ANN modeling had a great potential and feasibility for CCA adulteration discrimination.
