Rapid discrimination of quality grade of black tea based on near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), electronic nose (E-nose) and data fusion.

For the manufacturing and sale of tea, rapid discrimination of overall quality grade is of great importance. However, present evaluation methods are time-consuming and labor-intensive. This study investigated the feasibility of combining advantages of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and electronic nose (E-nose) to assess the tea quality.

Weed target detection at seedling stage in paddy fields based on YOLOX.

Weeds are one of the greatest threats to the growth of rice, and the loss of crops is greater in the early stage of rice growth. Traditional large-area spraying cannot selectively spray weeds and can easily cause herbicide waste and environmental pollution. To realize the transformation from large-area spraying to precision spraying in rice fields, it is necessary to quickly and efficiently detect the distribution of weeds.

Modeling and De-Noising for Nondestructive Detection of Total Soluble Solid Content of Pomelo by Using Visible/Near Infrared Spectroscopy.

The flavor of Pomelo is highly variable and difficult to determine without peeling the fruit. The quality of pomelo flavor is due largely to the total soluble solid content (TSSC) in the fruit and there is a commercial need for a quick but nondestructive TSSC detection method for the industrial grading of pomelo. Due to the large size and thick mesocarp of pomelo, determining the internal quality of a pomelo fruit in a nondestructive manner is difficult, and the detection accuracy is further complicated by the noise typically generated by the common methods for the internal quality detection of other fruits.
