摘要

To explore a non-destructive identification method for distinguishing Chinese chive (Allium tuberosum Rottl. ex Spreng) seeds from their adulterant, scallion (Allium fistulosum L.) seeds, machine vision and electronic nose technologies were employed. Principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), artificial neural networks (ANNs), and random forest (RF) algorithms were utilized to perform discriminant analyses based on the acquired data. The comprehensive results indicated that the image-based discrimination method, which integrates PCA with LDA and RF, demonstrated excellent accuracy using the obtained image information. Notably, the RF model established using odor information from the electronic nose achieved the lowest error rates of 0.98% for the training set and 0.70% for the test set. Overall, it was found effective and feasible to apply pattern recognition technology, combining both image and odor information, for the discrimination between Chinese chive seeds and their adulterated scallion seeds.
