Voltammetric Electronic Tongue for Different Varieties of Rice Classification Based on Square Wave Voltammetry

Abstract

A classification method of discriminate rice from different varieties with Volta metric electronic tongue based on square wave voltammetry is investigated. The rice samples are crushed and mixed with distilled water to get the rice solution, and the solution should be stirred and filtered before the experiment. In order to obtain the electrochemical response signals of the rice samples and extract the characteristic value of the singles, the electronic tongue which works respectively with titanium (Ti) electrode and tungsten electrode (W) to test the sample solution under square wave voltammetry. The Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Clustering Analysis (CA) are adopted to classify and recognize the rice samples. Experimental results show that good classification and recognition results are got in this paper when using Principal Component Analysis and Cluster Analysis to analyze the response signals which are obtained by Volta metric electronic tongue worked with Ti electrode and W electrode under square wave potential.
