Abstract
Aroma essential oils contain ingredients that are beneficial to the human body. A gas sensor array is required to monitor the concentration of these essential oil components to regulate their concentration by air conditioning systems. Therefore, we investigated the discrimination ability and concentration measurement accuracy of 14 effective components, including four aroma essential oils (lavender, melissa, tea tree, and eucalyptus), from a single gas sample and mixtures of two gases using sensor arrays. To obtain our data, we used two sensor arrays comprising commercially available semiconductor sensors and our developed semiconductor sensors. For machine learning, principal component analysis was used to visualize the dataset obtained from the sensor signals, and an artificial neural network was used for a detailed analysis. Our developed sensor array, which included sensors that possessed excellent sensor responses to 14 effective components and combined different semiconductive sensor principles, showed a better discrimination and prediction accuracy than the commercially available sensors investigated in this study.
