Identification of Rice Varieties and Adulteration Using Gas Chromatography-Ion Mobility Spectrometry
Abstract
To solve the problems existing in traditional biochemical methods, such as complex sample pretreatment requirements, tedious detection processes and low detection accuracies with respect to rice species and adulteration, the volatile flavor substances of five kinds of rice are detected using headspace-gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (HGC-IMS) to effectively identify the quality of rice and adulterated rice. The ion migration fingerprint spectra of five kinds of rice are identified using a semi-supervised generative adversarial network (SSGAN). We replace the output layer of the discriminator in a GAN with a softmax classifier, thus extending the GAN to a semi-supervised GAN. We define additional category tags for generated samples to guide the training process. Semi-supervised training is used to optimize the network parameters, and the trained discriminant network is used for classifying HGC-IMS images. The experimental results show that the prediction accuracy of the model reaches 98.00%, which is significantly higher than the rates achieved by other models, such as a decision tree, a support vector machine (SVM), improved SVM models (LS-SVM and PCA-SVM) and local geometric structure Fisher analysis (LGSFA); 98.00% is also higher than the prediction accuracies of the VGGNet, ResNet and Fast RCNN deep learning models. The experimental results also show that the accuracy of HGC-IMS image classification for identifying adulterated rice reaches 97.30%, which is higher than those of traditional chromatographic or spectral methods. The proposed method overcomes the shortcomings of some intelligent algorithms regarding the application of ion migration spectra and is feasible for accurately predicting rice varieties and adulterated rice.
