摘要
Electronic nose (e-nose) systems have been reported to be used in many areas as rapid, low-cost, and non-invasive instruments. Especially in meat production and processing, e-nose system is a powerful tool to pro-cess volatile compounds as a unique 'fingerprint'. The ability of the pattern recognition algorithm to analyze e-nose signals is the key to the success of the e-nose system in many applications. On the other hand, ensemble methods have been reported for favorable performances in various data sets. This research proposes an ensemble learning approach for e-nose signal processing, especially in beef quality assessment. Ensemble methods are not only used for learning algorithms but also sensor array optimization. For sensor array optimization, three filter -based feature selection algorithms (FSAs) are used to build ensemble FSA such as reliefF, chi-square, and gini index. Ensemble FSA is developed to deal with different or unstable outputs of a single FSA on homogeneous e-nose data sets in beef quality monitoring. Moreover, ensemble learning algorithms are employed to deal with multi-class classification and regression tasks. Random forest and Adaboost are used that represent bagging and boosting algorithms, respectively. The results are also compared with support vector machine and decision tree as single learners. According to the experimental results, our ensemble approach has good performance and generalization in e-nose signal processing. Optimized sensor combination based on filter-based FSA shows stable results both in classification and regression tasks. Furthermore, Adaboost as a boosting algorithm produces the best prediction even though using a smaller number of sensors.
