Abstract

Abstract: In this study, the response signals of three kinds of dry alfalfa volatile odors were collected by an electronic nose (E-nose), and the collected data were processed by principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA). A least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM) model was established to classify and evaluate the data. For the combined E-nose algorithm, the classification accuracies of the PCA-LS-SVM and LDA-LS-SVM models are 85% and 100%, respectively. LDA as the input model has better classification accuracy than the PCA-based model. The results show that the combination of the LDA and LS-SVM algorithms using an E-nose signal is effective in identifying different drying alfalfa. The performance of the LDA-based LS-SVM model is slightly higher than that of the PCA-based LS-SVM model. It can be concluded that the E-nose system combined with the LDA-based model has great potential to distinguish different dry alfalfa.
