Nondestructive Detection of Postharvest Quality of Cherry Tomatoes Using a Portable NIR Spectrometer and Chemometric Algorithms
摘要: The aim of this study was to assess the applicability of a portable NIR spectroscopy system and chemometric algorithms in intelligently detecting postharvest quality of cherry tomatoes. The postharvest quality of cherry tomatoes was evaluated in terms of firmness, soluble solids content (SSC), and pH, and a portable NIR spectrometer (950–1650 nm) was used to obtain the spectra of cherry tomatoes. Partial least square (PLS), support vector machine (SVM), and extreme learning machine (ELM) were applied to predict the postharvest quality of cherry tomatoes from their spectra. The effects of different preprocessing techniques, including Savitzky–Golay (S-G), multiplicative scattering correction (MSC), and standard normal variate (SNV) on prediction performance were also evaluated. Firmness, SSC and pH values of cherry tomatoes decreased during storage period, based on which the tomato samples could be classified into two distinct clusters. Similarly, cherry tomatoes with different storage time could also be separated by the NIR spectroscopic characteristics. The best prediction accuracy was obtained from ELM algorithms using the raw spectra with Rp2, RMSEP, and RPD values of 0.9666, 0.3141 N, and 5.6118 for firmness; 0.9179, 0.1485%, and 3.6249 for SSC; and 0.8519, 0.0164, and 2.7407 for pH, respectively. Excellent predictions for firmness and SSC (RPD value greater than 3.0), good prediction for pH (RPD value between 2.5 and 3.0) were obtained using ELM model. NIR spectroscopy is capable of intelligently detecting postharvest quality of cherry tomatoes during storage.

A novel on-line electrochemical transmission infrared spectroscopy to?study the current efficiency of carbonates for?ethanol oxidation reactions in alkaline media
摘要: Research on the reaction mechanism of ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) is important for the development of highly active EOR electro-catalysts. One of the main difficulties in the EOR study is the quantitative analysis of the non-volatile products. Conventional on-line electrochemical flowing transmission infrared spectroscopy (ETIRS) can only collect a part of the carbonate products of EOR in alkaline media, making the further quantitative study impossible. Herein, a new ETIRS system has been designed and prepared by employing a cation-exchange membrane (Nafion) in the sampling hood. The using of the Nafion membrane can prevent the anions crossing over by confining the generated carbonates in the sampling hood without diffusing into the bulk electrolyte. Therefore, the collection efficiency of the carbonate products as well as the test accuracy of the carbonate current efficiency has been significantly improved. The result of CO stripping reaction shows that ca. 100% of the carbonate product is able to be collected in alkaline media by this new system. The influence of the experimental temperature to the carbonate current efficiency has been further studied on Pt/C toward EOR in alkaline media.

Rapid, non-destructive determination of ginseng seed moisture content by near infrared spectroscopy technology
摘要: Ginseng seed moisture content (SMC) determination and monitoring are of great importance during seed storage and in trading. The traditional oven-drying method for SMC measurement is accurate but takes both time and labour. The objective of this study was to develop a rapid and non-destructive method for ginseng SMC determination using near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. Eighteen freshly harvested seed lots stored for different periods (days) were used for NIR model development and 12 commercial seed lots were used for validation of the model. The model developed in the present work had an R2 of 0.9913, residual prediction deviation (RPD) of 11.3 and low root mean square errors assessed by cross-validation (RMSECV; 0.387%). For commercial seed lot measurement, the predicted values of SMC were nearly the same as measured ones, with the relative differences less than 2.96%. In conclusion, NIR spectroscopy suitable for rapid and nondestructive determination of ginseng SMC.

Domino Reaction for the Sustainable Functionalization of Few-Layer Graphene
摘要: The mechanism for the functionalization of graphene layers with pyrrole compounds was investigated. Liquid 1,2,5-trimethylpyrrole (TMP) was heated in air in the presence of a high surface area nanosized graphite (HSAG), at temperatures between 80 °C and 180 °C. After the thermal treatments solid and liquid samples, separated by centrifugation, were analysed by means of Raman, Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-Rays Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and 1H-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy and High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM). FT-IR spectra were interpreted with the support of Density Functional Theory (DFT) quantum chemical modelling. Raman findings suggested that the bulk structure of HSAG remained substantially unaltered, without intercalation products. FT-IR and XPS spectra showed the presence of oxidized TMP derivatives on the solid adducts, in a much larger amount than in the liquid. For thermal treatments at T ≥ 150 °C, IR spectral features revealed not only the presence of oxidized products but also the reaction of intra-annular double bond of TMP with HSAG. XPS spectroscopy showed the increase of the ratio between C(sp2)N bonds involved in the aromatic system and C(sp3)N bonds, resulting from reaction of the pyrrole moiety, observed while increasing the temperature from 130 °C to 180 °C. All these findings, supported by modeling, led to hypothesize a cascade reaction involving a carbocatalyzed oxidation of the pyrrole compound followed by Diels-Alder cycloaddition. Graphene layers play a twofold role: at the early stages of the reaction, they behave as a catalyst for the oxidation of TMP and then they become the substrate for the cycloaddition reaction. Such sustainable functionalization, which does not produce by-products, allows us to use the pyrrole compounds for decorating sp2 carbon allotropes without altering their bulk structure and smooths the path for their wider application.

Noise reduction for near-infrared spectroscopy data using extreme learning machines
摘要: The near infrared (NIR) spectra technique is an effective approach to predict chemical properties and it is typically applied in petrochemical, agricultural, medical, and environmental sectors. NIR spectra are usually of very high dimensions and contain huge amounts of information. Most of the information is irrelevant to the target problem and some is simply noise. Thus, it is not an easy task to discover the relationship between NIR spectra and the predictive variable. However, this kind of regression analysis is one of the main topics of machine learning. Thus machine learning techniques play a key role in NIR based analytical approaches. Pre-processing of NIR spectral data has become an integral part of chemometrics modeling. The objective of the pre-processing is to remove physical phenomena (noise) in the spectra in order to improve the regression or classification model. In this work, we propose to reduce the noise using extreme learning machines which have shown good predictive performances in regression applications as well as in large dataset classification tasks. For this, we use a novel algorithm called C-PL-ELM, which has an architecture in parallel based on a non-linear layer in parallel with another non-linear layer. Using the soft margin loss function concept, we incorporate two Lagrange multipliers with the objective of including the noise of spectral data. Six real-life dataset were analyzed to illustrate the performance of the developed models. The results for regression and classification problems confirm the advantages of using the proposed method in terms of root mean square error and accuracy.

Nondestructive egg freshness assessment from the equatorial and blunt region based on visible near infrared spectroscopy
摘要: This research was to study which orientation was better for freshness prediction of the white-shelled eggs using visible near infrared spectroscopy. The transmission spectra were acquired in the equatorial region and at the blunt end of the eggs. After each spectral measurement, the Haugh unit, yolk index, and albumen pH as the freshness parameters were simultaneously measured using traditional destructive methods. Pretreatment methods containing Savitzky-Golay smoothing, multiplicative scatter correction, the standard normal variate, the first derivative and the second derivative were used. A partial least squares regression was developed to predict the Haugh unit, yolk index, and albumen pH. The best correlation coefficients of prediction were obtained from the equatorial region, and were 0.881, 0.855, and 0.888 for the Haugh unit, yolk index and albumen pH, respectively. And root mean square errors in the prediction set were 7.720, 0.034, and 0.147 for the Haugh unit, yolk index and albumen pH, respectively. The results illustrated that the equatorial region showed better ability than the blunt end to predict freshness of the white-shelled eggs.

[IEEE 2018 25th International Conference on Mechatronics and Machine Vision in Practice (M2VIP) - Stuttgart, Germany (2018.11.20-2018.11.22)] 2018 25th International Conference on Mechatronics and Machine Vision in Practice (M2VIP) - Hybrid sEMG, NIRS and MMG Sensor System
摘要: In recent years, surface electromyography (sEMG) is widely used in human-computer interface (HCI). For example, it is used for prosthetic manipulation to improve the quality of amputees' life. However, sEMG approaches has some drawbacks such as poor robustness of the electrode-skin interface. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and mechanomyography (MMG) can also monitor muscle motion. Comparing with approaches that only use sEMG signal, hybrid sEMG, NIRS and MMG sensor system will have better system performance. Investigations about the fusion of sEMG, NIRS and MMG are scant. This paper presents a hybrid sEMG, NIRS and MMG sensor system and puts it into practice. Fuse surface electromyography, near-infrared spectroscopy and mechanomyography acquisition circuits into a compact sensor, which can measure the muscle motion from the modalities of electrophysiology, optics and acoustics. Using the hybrid sensor system, incremental grip force experiment is carried out to explore the relationship between the three signals, blood oxygen metabolism and grip force. And muscle fatigue is carried out in order to explain the phenomenon of muscle fatigue from the perspective of electrophysiology, blood oxygen metabolism and mechanomyography.

Potential of Near-infrared Spectroscopy to Detect Defects on the Surface of Solid Wood Boards
摘要: Defects on the surface of solid wood boards directly affect their mechanical properties and product grades. This study investigated the use of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to detect and classify defects on the surface of solid wood boards. Pinus koraiensis was selected as the raw material. The experiments focused on the ability to use the model to sort defects on the surface of wood into four types, namely live knots, dead knots, cracks, and defect-free. The test data consisted of 360 NIR absorption spectra of the defect samples using a portable NIR spectrometer, with the wavelength range of 900 to 1900 nm. Three pre-processing methods were used to compare the effects of noise elimination in the original absorption spectra. The NIR discrimination models were developed based on partial least squares and discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM), and back-propagation neural network (BPNN) from 900 to approximately 1900 nm. The results demonstrated that the BPNN model exhibited the highest classification accuracy of 97.92% for the model calibration and 97.50% for the prediction set. These results suggest that there is potential for the NIR method to detect defects and differentiate between types of defects on the surface of solid wood boards.

Applicability of near infrared spectroscopy for real-time soil detection during automatic dishwashing
摘要: The purpose of this study was to utilize NIR spectrometry to develop a novel method to detect and determine concentrations of different soils in dishwashing liquor during automatic dishwashing in real-time. If it is possible to differentiate between soils, this could be an opportunity to react specifically to them (e.g. by increasing the water temperature if fat components are not sufficiently emulsifying). The possibility of an automatic adaptation of the dishwashing process to different soils and soil levels could lead to a shorter, more environmentally friendly and cost-reducing process. In a first approach, an emulsion containing three soil types (oatmeal, egg-yolk and butterfat), water and detergent were used to develop NIR spectrometry prediction models. Transmittance spectra obtained with an Fourier transform near infrared (FT-NIR) spectrometer of testing standards of 76 automatic dishwashing cycles with seven samples per cycle were taken at various times during the main washing process for calibration (and validation) of the NIR spectrometry prediction models. The spectra were pretreated to develop NIR spectrometry prediction models for each type of soil using the partial least squares regression method with cross-validation. Overall, the coefficients of determination in cross-validation are R2 > 0.92 for all NIR spectrometry prediction models developed. The results of the prediction models developed show that NIR spectrometry technology is a promising method to predict different levels of predefined soils in dishwashing liquor. The NIR spectrometry models were applied to an automatic dishwashing process with soiled dishes instead of emulsions containing soils to test their applicability. The resulting dishwashing process could be tracked in real-time by the dissolved soil concentrations, observed in the dishwashing liquor.

Optical properties and colorimetry of gelatine gels prepared in different saline solutions
摘要: Gelatine has been widely used in many multidisciplinary research fields due to its biocompatibility. Using saline solutions in the gelation of gelatine allows for new properties to be incorporated into the prepared gels. This study examined the optical and colour properties of gelatine gels prepared in saline solutions, containing three different metal chlorides (NiCl2·6H2O, CoCl2·6H2O, and CrCl3·6H2O) with concentrations of up to 50%, to prepare three groups of gels. FTIR spectroscopy indicated a loss in the helical structure of the metal-containing gelatine gels, and a shift in the amide bands towards lower wavenumbers. From the thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), the starting degradation temperatures (SDTs) of the prepared gelatine gels were found to be correlated to the concentration of the gelling solutions. All SDTs were above 250 °C, making these gels suitable for standing temperatures beyond the daily range. UV–vis spectroscopy showed that d-d transitions were responsible for the colour properties of the metal-containing gelatine gels. It is concluded that the studied properties and the measured parameters were found to depend on both salt type and concentration. With the current findings, the prepared gels can be used as optical thermometers, colour-selective corner cube retroreflectors, laser components, and coatings for OLEDs.
