Abstract

For the identification of salmon adulteration with water injection, a nondestructive identification method based on hyperspectral images was proposed. The hyperspectral images of salmon fillets in visible and near-infrared ranges (390–1050 nm) were obtained with a system. The original hyperspectral data were processed through the principal-component analysis (PCA). According to the image quality and PCA parameters, a second principal-component (PC2) image was selected as the feature image, and the wavelengths corresponding to the local extremum values of feature image weighting coefficients were extracted as feature wavelengths, which were 454.9, 512.3, and 569.1 nm. On this basis, the color combined with spectra at feature wavelengths, texture combined with spectra at feature wavelengths, and color-texture combined with spectra at feature wavelengths were independently set as the input, for the modeling of salmon adulteration identification based on the self-organizing feature map (SOM) network. The distances between neighboring neurons and feature weights of the models were analyzed to realize the visualization of identification results. The results showed that the SOM-based model, with texture-color combined with fusion features of spectra at feature wavelengths as the input, was evaluated to possess the best performance and identification accuracy is as high as 96.7%.

Summary

Introduction

Salmon is rich in nutrition, especially unsaturated fatty acids, which can eliminate the cholesterol and lipids in human blood, lowering the incidence of cardiovascular disease [1]. With the rapid development of the salmon industry, the adulteration of salmon has become a serious concern in China. The taste of salmon gets worse and the microbial content in salmon exceeds the limit of the standards, resulting in the harm to human health [2]. For the detection of water, nuclear magnetic resonance can obtain direct information about interactions between hydrogen protons and exchangeable protons in proteins and the chemical and physical state of water, especially in muscle and meat [5]. Erefore, it is necessary to explore a fast, nondestructive, and convenient detection technique for the identi cation of adulterated salmon and other foods [6] The testing instrument is expensive and mainly used at the laboratory testing level in food detection. erefore, it is necessary to explore a fast, nondestructive, and convenient detection technique for the identi cation of adulterated salmon and other foods [6]
