Abstract
Daodi medicinal material plays an important role in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). This study researches and validates the NNRW (neural network with random weights) model on spectroscopic profiling data for geographical origin identification. NNRW is a special neural network model that does not require an iterative training process. It has been proved effective in various resource-limited data-driven applications. However, whether NNRW works for spectroscopic profiling data remains to be explored. In this study, the Raman and UV (ultraviolet) profiling data of 160 radix astragali samples from four geographic regions are trained and evaluated by four classification models, i.e., NNRW, MLP (multi-layer perceptron), SVM (support vector machine), and DTC (decision tree classifier). Their validation accuracies are 96.3%, 98.0%, 98.4%, and 92.8% respectively. The training/fitting times are 0.372 ms (milli-seconds), 57.9 ms, 2.033 ms, and 3.351 ms, respectively. This study shows that NNRW has a significant training time cut while keeping a high prediction accuracy, and it is a promising solution to resource-limited edge computing applications.
