Moisture content (MC) of rough rice directly affects rice quality and its market value. This study applied spectroscopy both in visible 400-700 nm and NIR 700-1050 nm bands to record spectrum of rough rice single kernel (SK). Tainan No.11 medium rice randomly collected from field. After machine harvested, it was used in the tests and they were conditioned by oven to five MC levels ranging from 10.2 to 35.9%. Two regression methods, multiple linear regressions (MLR) and partial least square regression (PLSR), were applied to develop calibration models. Among 7 tested models were found that PLSR model of first differential with 21 gap points, which are rc=0.98, SEC=1.1% for calibration and rp=0.96, SEP=1.9% for prediction. The results suggested average accuracy for the best model was about 98.4% in 400-1050 nm wavelength.

The present study was designed to investigate whether near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy with minimal sample processing could be a suitable technique to rapidly measure histamine levels in raw and processed tuna fish. Calibration models based on orthogonal partial least square regression (OPLSR) were built to predict histamine in the range 10–1000 mg kg−1 using the 1000–2500 nm NIR spectra of artificially-contaminated fish. The two models were then validated using a new set of naturally contaminated samples in which histamine content was determined by conventional high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. As for calibration results, coefficient of determination (r2) > 0.98, root mean square of estimation (RMSEE) ≤ 5 mg kg−1 and root mean square of cross-validation (RMSECV) ≤ 6 mg kg−1 were achieved. Both models were optimal also in the validation stage, showing r2 values > 0.97, root mean square errors of prediction (RMSEP) ≤ 10 mg kg−1 and relative range error (RER) ≥ 25, with better results showed by the model for processed fish. The promising results achieved suggest NIR spectroscopy as an implemental analytical solution in fish industries and markets to effectively determine histamine amounts.

<p>Soil organic carbon (SOC) is of particular interest in the study of agricultural systems as an indicator of soil quality and soil fertility. In the use of Vis-NIR spectroscopy for SOC detection, the interpretation of the spectral response with regards to the importance of individual wavelengths is challenging due to the soil’s composition of multiple organic and minerals compounds. Under field conditions, additional aspects affect the spectral data compared to lab conditions. This study compared the spectral wavelength importance in partial least square regression (PLSR) models for SOC between field and lab conditions. Surface soil samples were obtained from a long-term field experiment (LTE) with high SOC variability located in the state of Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. Data sets of Vis-NIR spectra were acquired in the lab and field using two spectrometers, respectively. Four different preprocessing methods were applied before building the models. Wavelength importance was observed using variable importance in projection. Differences in wavelength importance were observed depending on the measurement device, measurement condition, and preprocessing technique, although pattern matches were identifiable, especially in the NIR range. It is these pattern matches that aid model interpretation to effectively determine SOC under field conditions.</p>

Abstract Near-infrared reflectance (NIR) spectroscopy was used to analyze fat, protein, and total solids in cheese without any sample treatment. A set of 92 samples of cow’s milk cheese was used for instrument calibration by principal components analysis and modified partial least-square regression. The following statistical values were obtained: standard error of calibration (SEC) = 0.388 and squared correlation coefficient (R2) = 0.99 for fat, SEC = 0.397 and R2 = 0.98 for protein, and SEC = 0.412 and R2 = 0.99 for total solids. To validate the calibration, an independent set of 25 cheese samples of the same type was used. Standard errors of validation were 0.47,0.50, and 0.61 for fat, protein, and total solids, respectively, and hf for the regression of measurements by reference methods versus measurements by NIR spectroscopy was 0.98 for the 3 components.

Soil spectroscopy was applied for predicting soil organic carbon (SOC) in the highlands of Ethiopia. Soil samples were acquired from Ethiopia’s National Soil Testing Centre and direct field sampling. The reflectance of samples was measured using a FieldSpec 3 diffuse reflectance spectrometer. Outliers and sample relation were evaluated using principal component analysis (PCA) and models were developed through partial least square regression (PLSR). For nine watersheds sampled, 20% of the samples were set aside to test prediction and 80% were used to develop calibration models. Depending on the number of samples per watershed, cross validation or independent validation were used. The stability of models was evaluated using coefficient of determination (R2), root mean square error (RMSE), and the ratio performance deviation (RPD). The R2 (%), RMSE (%), and RPD, respectively, for validation were Anjeni (88, 0.44, 3.05), Bale (86, 0.52, 2.7), Basketo (89, 0.57, 3.0), Benishangul (91, 0.30, 3.4), Kersa (82, 0.44, 2.4), Kola tembien (75, 0.44, 1.9), Maybar (84. 0.57, 2.5), Megech (85, 0.15, 2.6), and Wondo Genet (86, 0.52, 2.7) indicating that the models were stable. Models performed better for areas with high SOC values than areas with lower SOC values. Overall, soil spectroscopy performance ranged from very good to good.

Soil texture is one of the soil properties influencing most physical, chemical, and biological soil processes.  Information on soil texture is important to support the agronomic decisions for farm management. The problem is how to provide reliable, fast and inexpensive information of soil texture in numerous soil samples and repeated measurement. The objective of this research was to generate the soil texture map based on laboratory Vis-NIR (Visible - Near Infra-Red) spectroscopy and inverse distance weighted (IDW) interpolation method. An ASD Fieldspec 3 with a spectral range from 350 nm to 2500 nm was used to measure the soil reflectance. Pipette method was used to measure the silt, clay and sand fractions. The partial least square regression (PLSR) was performed to establish the prediction model of soil texture. The predicted values were mapped and showing the information of spatial and temporal variability of soil texture. Keywords: Vis-NIR, spectroscopy, soil texture, PLSR, IDW

The absorbance spectra for air-dried and ground soil samples from Ontario, Canada were collected in the visible and near-infrared (VIS-NIR) region from 343 to 2200 nm. The study examined thirteen combination of six preprocessing (1st derivative, 2nd derivative, Savitzky-Golay, Gap, SNV and Detrend) method included in ‘prospectr’ R package along with four modeling approaches: partial least square regression (PLSR), cubist, random forest (RF), and extreme learning machine (ELM) for prediction of the soil organic matter (SOM). The 1st derivative + gap, 2nd derivative + gap and standard normal variance (SNV) were the best preprocessing algorithms. Thus, only these three preprocessing algorithms along with four modeling approaches were used for prediction of soil pH, electrical conductively (EC), %sand, %silt, %clay, %very coarse sand (VCS), %coarse sand (CS), %medium sand (ms) and %fine sand (fs). The results showed that OM, pH, %sand, %silt and %CS were all predicted with confidence (R2 > 0.60) and the combination of 1st derivative + gap and RF gained the best performance. A detailed comparison of the preprocessing and modeling algorithms for various soil properties in this study demonstrate that for better prediction of soil properties using VIS-NIR spectroscopy requires different preprocessing and modeling algorithms. However, in general RF and 1st derivative + gap can be labeled at the best combination of preprocessing and modelling algorithms.

Near-infrared spectroscopic (NIR) technique was used, for the first time, to predict volatile phenols content, namely guaiacol, 4-methyl-guaiacol, eugenol, syringol, 4-methyl-syringol and 4-allyl-syringol, of aged wine spirits (AWS). This study aimed to develop calibration models for the volatile phenol’s quantification in AWS, by NIR, faster and without sample preparation. Partial least square regression (PLS-R) models were developed with NIR spectra in the near-IR region (12,500–4000 cm−1) and those obtained from GC-FID quantification after liquid-liquid extraction. In the PLS-R developed method, cross-validation with 50% of the samples along a validation test set with 50% of the remaining samples. The final calibration was performed with 100% of the data. PLS-R models with a good accuracy were obtained for guaiacol (r2 = 96.34; RPD = 5.23), 4-methyl-guaiacol (r2 = 96.1; RPD = 5.07), eugenol (r2 = 96.06; RPD = 5.04), syringol (r2 = 97.32; RPD = 6.11), 4-methyl-syringol (r2 = 95.79; RPD = 4.88) and 4-allyl-syringol (r2 = 95.97; RPD = 4.98). These results reveal that NIR is a valuable technique for the quality control of wine spirits and to predict the volatile phenols content, which contributes to the sensory quality of the spirit beverages.

This study evaluates a novel handheld sensor technology coupled with pattern recognition to provide real-time screening of several soybean traits for breeders and farmers, namely protein and fat quality. We developed predictive regression models that can quantify soybean quality traits based on near-infrared (NIR) spectra acquired by a handheld instrument. This system has been utilized to measure crude protein, essential amino acids (lysine, threonine, methionine, tryptophan, and cysteine) composition, total fat, the profile of major fatty acids, and moisture content in soybeans (n = 107), and soy products including soy isolates, soy concentrates, and soy supplement drink powders (n = 15). Reference quantification of crude protein content used the Dumas combustion method (AOAC 992.23), and individual amino acids were determined using traditional protein hydrolysis (AOAC 982.30). Fat and moisture content were determined by Soxhlet (AOAC 945.16) and Karl Fischer methods, respectively, and fatty acid composition via gas chromatography-fatty acid methyl esterification. Predictive models were built and validated using ground soybean and soy products. Robust partial least square regression (PLSR) models predicted all measured quality parameters with high integrity of fit (RPre ≥ 0.92), low root mean square error of prediction (0.02–3.07%), and high predictive performance (RPD range 2.4–8.8, RER range 7.5–29.2). Our study demonstrated that a handheld NIR sensor can supplant expensive laboratory testing that can take weeks to produce results and provide soybean breeders and growers with a rapid, accurate, and non-destructive tool that can be used in the field for real-time analysis of soybeans to facilitate faster decision-making.

<p>Soil organic carbon (SOC) is a key soil property attracting special interest in the study of agricultural systems. Striving towards more effective SOC data acquisition, the use of VIS-NIR spectroscopy has increased over the last years. The interpretation of the recorded signal information with regards to SOC is not trivial as spectral absorption features are caused by the stretching and bending of structural molecule groups which are embedded in a complex soil matrix. The aim of this study was to assess spectral wavelength importance in partial least square regression (PLSR) models for SOC prediction. Surface soil samples were obtained from a long-term field experiment (LTFE) located in the state of Saxony-Anhalt, Germany. The LTFE presented a high variability of SOC values due to the different organic and mineral fertilization treatments. Data sets of Vis-NIR spectra were acquired in the lab and field using an ASD field spectrometer. Then, different preprocessing methods were applied before building the models. Finally, the wavelength importance was observed using regression coefficients (RC) and variable importance projections (VIP). As expected, lab data showed higher accuracy in SOC predictions (RMSE: 0.10-0.12%) compared with field data (RMSE: 0.18-0.20%). Overall, the VIP indicator provided more identifiable peaks at specific wavelength ranges, and it was more consistent among the preprocessing methods compared with RC for both lab and field data. Although model uncertainties were higher with field measurements, the importance of some wavelengths was maintained. Overall, this information is essential for model interpretation and tells us about disturbance effects in spectral field measurements compared to lab measurements.</p>
