Article Synopsis
  • The selection of characteristic bands in hyperspectral imaging significantly impacts the performance of models used to detect mutton pH values.
  • The study evaluated two band-selection methods—synergy interval partial least square (siPLS) and a combination of siPLS with genetic algorithms (siPLS-GA)—on mutton muscle spectra preprocessed with techniques like second derivative and multiplicative scatter correction.
  • Results showed that the siPLS-GA-PLS model outperformed the full-band model, achieving high correlation coefficients and low error rates, indicating improved accuracy in lamb pH detection using fewer spectral variables.

Article Synopsis
  • * 71 mutton samples were scanned in the Visible-Near Infrared range (400-1000 nm) while their TVB-N content was measured using established chemical methods, allowing for the extraction of relevant spectral data.
  • * The study developed calibration models using different statistical approaches, showing that techniques like Partial Least Squares Regression (PLSR) combined with specific spectral preprocessing could accurately quantify mutton freshness, with high correlation coefficients indicating strong predictive capability.

Selection of Regions of interest (ROIs) and subsequent spectral extraction was a key step of non-destructive detection and analysis based on hyperspectral imaging (HSI). For the rapid and accurate detection of mutton pH, the study on the effects of 2 different ROIs on mutton pH models was carried out in the visible-near infrared region of 473~1 000 nm. 2 ROIs methods of Rectangle Regions (RR) and Image Segmentation (IS) were adopted to extract 122 corresponding representative spectra respectively.

The research on nondestructive test for detecting the sugar content of Hami melon by the technology of hyperspectral imaging was put forward. The research used the hyperspectral imaging system to get the diffuse reflective spectrum information (400 - 1 000 nm) of anilox class Hami melon sugar content, chose effective whole wavelength (500 - 820 nm)to do the modeling regression analysis the sugar content of Hami melon. The research compared the correction method of MSC and SNV, and also compared the influence of accuracy of modeling in terms of the spectrum pretreatment methods of original spectrum, first order differential, second order differential; Using the methods of PLS, SMLR and PCR, the comparative analysis of sugar content detection model effect with skin Hami melon and peel Hami melon was conducted.

A method was developed to automatically discriminate the persistent calyx fruit and fruit without calyx of fragrant pear by means of near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The prediction performance of different band regions range, different principal component numbers and different preprocessing methods of the spectra (multiplicative signal correction, standard normal variate, and derivative spectra) together with discriminant analysis (DA) was also investigated, and The calibration model was established to classify the different kinds of fragrant pear. The research results for the fragrant pear classification showed that DA calibration models using these parameters with band regions between 9 091 and 4 000 cm(-1) and original spectra are optimal, with the percentage of correct sample classification being 100% and 95% for the calibration and validation set, respectively.

The present paper reviews the development in the field of hyperspectral imaging technology for nondestructive detection of fruit internal quality in recent years up to the year 2007. With the increasing maturity of hyperspectral imaging technology, decline of cost for its hardware and software, and improvement in hyperspectral image data processing algorithms, hyperspectral imaging technology for fruit quality nondestructive detection has become a hot research topic. In order to track the latest research developments at home and abroad, the fruit internal quality (maturity, firmness, soluble solid content, water content) detection with hyperspectral imaging was reviewed, which would provide reference for Chinese researchers.
